Don't say that :( I can already make tall ass stretchy plants without additional red light.

I dont think you will have a huge issue. The boards you are using are heavy on blue/green IMO. Shade avoidance is the mechanism so if you are not using the puck full day, they (plants) are not getting the notification they need to initate the response.

Okay that's good to know. I reduced the number of plants that I'm growing and finally have the height under control this grow. I just don't want to go back to lanky plants with little buds.

Looks like sis did a good job training for ya, but whats the deal with the ones in the back? Does she have t-rex arms or something? If you arent making it between harvests with this setup, then, young lady, you have a problem, too many clients or you smoke too much. I like little buds, can only smoke one bowl at a time.

lol. there are a few stems in the back that grew taller than the rest. I forgot to tell her that she could unzip the sides of the tent to access the rear. Next time I want to do a five week veg to 100% fill out the screen and I'm going to use ridged fencing for the screen so the plant can't push it up so high.

I still have a few ounces northern lights from my first grow and tons of LSD from my second grow. I've given away a few ounces to friends and family. I could probably stop for a while, but I'm enjoying growing and like that I'm seeing the results of small incremental changes. I only smoke up before bed during the week. More on the weekends if I'm home doing nothing.

I'm in tamale mode, working out recipes for Christmas. What a surprise, seriouseats.com mixer driven masa recipe doesn't come close to my old work the dough forever recipe, which is really no recipe, sigh........ I also need a new blender, LOL @Metasynth any hints?

Oh well at this rate see you all in the new year.

I live in the UK and I donated blood yesterday. I don't live in a major city, so we don't have a donation centre, we just have the donation team set up in a room at the local football club, or in the local theatre every couple of weeks.

Talking to the nurse beforehand I mentioned that I tried to donate a few weeks earlier, but the nurse couldn't hit a vein so apologized and asked if I could rebook a new appointment on the phone asap. The new nurse looked at my details and said that although that session was fully booked, they had squeezed me in as I was O neg blood type, which is the one they can use for anybody no matter their blood group, thus is in high demand. She looked even closer then said "oh, you are also CMV negative, you are really in demand!!"

I had never been told about the CMV neg before and asked what that meant. It turns out that roughly 70-80% of adults have been exposed to the CMV virus, a flu type virus which stays in your body for life, a bit like cold sore virus does. Does no harm, but they can't use their blood for people with no immune system as it can be fatal.

She basically said, there is a very high chance your blood always goes to Neonatal units, your blood can be given to babies, even unborn ones who may need a transfusion in the womb. Because their immune system is still developing, there is no risk to them as you are CMV neg. Add in the fact you are O neg as well and ANY baby can have your blood, you are part of a very, very small percentage.

My daughter is 6 months pregnant at the moment, so that REALLY hit home.

Just a chance conversation, but it has really made me realise even more just how important donations are, and how crucial they can be to save someones life, even that of an unborn baby.

I already knew I was helping others by donating, very probably saving lives, but walking out of there yesterday knowing what I then knew, I had a tremendous feeling of pride in what I was doing. I have only been donating for 5 years, and wish I had started years ago now.

You're what's known as a universal donor. Good for you giving blood.

Thanks I'm super excited after the disappointing results from my last grow. The end of October will mark one year of being on rollitup and growing weed. So far I've learned growing weed is easy... growing good weed is really hard.

I was wondering how I would male cake with this, I am looking for a new mixer because the beater for the kitchen aid threw a wire and I need more clearance between the head and the bowl.

As for a blender

While we are asking for product recommendations, I need a multi zone thermostat that has smart shit like ability to mointor boiler water temp and take into account external temp trends when setting the room temp. The boiler might already have zone priority built in because it does the dhw, its a burnham (sp?) with honewell valves, but I havent looked at it beyond that.
