How goes it on your side of the world?
Up and down dude. We're slowly going down the list of shitty situations and making them right. Both life and growing. I never ever would have guessed all of it to be so difficult, but like most things that are hard to get through I'm becoming a better person for it all. Been 5 weeks without my wife and daughter, still 2 weeks till they get back. Moving to a new house next week. Plants are getting big and very numerous. Getting ready to shift focus to pretty much all outdoors. At least our tax return has taken the money crunch out of the issue for a few months at least. I've made a lot of friends, my spanish is off the hook, and my tan is insane (at least on my face and arms). I've seen a whole lot, grown a lot, learned a lot, cried a lot. And I've come to a point in life where I've realized that I don't know a whole hell of a lot about anything. Not like I don't know how to grow, or know a lot about math, or building things, etc. Just that I don't really know about a direction in life, goals, stuff like that. I suppose what I've realized is that family is the most important thing, and keeping them happy is my job. Outside that, I don't know what's up, down, left, or right.

I miss a simple life, where the future seemed pretty clear. It's much more exciting not knowing what's going to happen, but it's a lot of stress, and I don't like stress. I'm tired. I don't have a lot of happiness. And kinda feel like a giant failure. But my wife still loves me, my daughter is still happy, and I've managed to make a few seeds.... so I guess things are ok.

One really cool thing is that I'm teaching English to elementary school kids. Grades 1-6. I have 300 students. The really love me and I really love them. I'm kinda famous in town now, it's a good feeling. Makes me smile just thinking about it.

It's been fun seeing your pictures and hearing of your travels and visits to folks. I have a hard time keeping up with your thread, you guys talk a lot. :P Otherwise I'd post in there more.

Thanks for asking dude.

Cheers joedank.... that made me blush a bit. :)

Well then, it's all for the best. I got my plate full of drama here. lol... don't need no more.

I feel like I've hit my bottom and headed up from here. While the depths are not a nice place to be, I hope you hit your bottom soon (if you haven't already), so you can just head up for a while. Ain't roller coasters something. :/

You are always welcome Jig.

That was a really nice diorama of the LA Black Bubble (GYB?)

It is very gratifying that you are heading into a better place Doc. Very sad that.

Been sick all week and I feel like I have no idea what is going on.

bro no need for you to worry. Sorry if it upset you but guess it was bothering me more then I thought and can't stand the lieing to everyone . I never said I was perfect:neutral:

The zinc and iron are released slowly and are probably more beneficial than harmful. It would last one grow just fine. I have some at the bottom of my hempy pots to hold in the pumice. They are on their third use and still no noticeable degradation. The trashcans are starting to rust through now though.

What chems are in the plastic that are getting into the plants is what I am concerned about.

I've read it's better for the wick to be solid when they are bigger containers. We shall see. I'm not concerned too much about the plastic. Not using ferts In the rez. It's all amendment and dry ferts in the smart pot. I have a lot of work today. Building and loading a bunch of sips and.doing yard work after. Lol

Right - one big wick. It doesn't even need to be cone shaped. It could be a cylinder. Easy peasy lemon squeezy.
