Unclefishstick's Guide to Home Bicycle Repair

Not open for further replies.
Saw there reply Re bike. I will look into replacing the tubes. Going to keep an eye on the tire pressure and work with what I have first. Not gearing up for any longer rides than the weeks thirty mile for now, but at some point I can see putting money in for bike tools, I just have other sports I am also invested in so biking is at the lower priority ATM. Need to get soccer gear, as well as some other stuff.
Still trying to keep up.

The cactus is more like the one budelight posted, the two on the bottom left. The stem was wobbling so much, I am going to need to give it a pot up and some gravel around the base like unc suggests. I am a bit worried abut it since the transplant will probably be very stressful. The roots really get stuck in terra cotta. Don't know what it's much good for in horticture.
Thanks woop

third....so its not just pots you dont clean eh? lol

woop!.... get a multi tool,it will take care of 90% of what you need for a bike..

and cactus roots can take a ton of abuse (most of the time...),even if you break a bunch of roots as long as you dont water it for a few days to a week the roots will generally heal up just fine,its actually good for them to get a little root pruning here and there...and cactus dont need to be up potted very frequently,they can be happy in small pots for years at a time...



mornin gang,,,crap,cant believe its 9 already,where did the morning go?

Morning hooligans.

pappy, not sure yet on the timers. I have them but have not hooked them up yet. Will do that tonight as I leave for a weekend getaway tomorrow. Three nights away from the girls. I will do multiple feeds as opposed to the once a day I've been doing with the hand feeding.

Took 5 minutes to get runoff on the WW and only about 2 on the LOK's. The LOK's are in their 10th week though so not really eating/drinking much. They are on just Cannazyme and Boost till they're done.

Once I'm back from my trip I'll fine tune everything.

New batch of LOK's going in.

For once I didn't over veg. These have a good stretch so they will fill in the screen nicely.

And last but not least, the WW dom RHS bustin a move.

Oh yeah, the ADawg(1 out of 4 plants) went to sweat at 13.5 so I will safely get 12 off her, not a bad start. If I clear 10 a piece off the other 3 I will have hit a bit over 2.5 off a 600 watter.

Life is good.:biggrin:

Well dans this is only version 1.0. I'm sure it will be a work in progress. I'm already thinking of ditching the basket stakes for shrubblers or maybe black holes.

With the airpots though you kind of have to keep the water to the center, otherwise it leaks right out the side holes.

Gotta say, after hand watering 4 different groups of flowering plants and 2 different groups of veg it will be nice to have those 2+ hours back.

Should just be one night a week of filling and mixing the barrels. More time to do plant maintenance.

I m gonna use alcohol the first few times at least, we use alot of Bach herbal remedy tinctures here and they seem to all be alcohol based to, so I figure I'll stick to the more standard alcohol version :)

I had a clone of BM I LOVE IT, I lost it a few years ago. I had a few f2s seeds ,but no keepers in those that sucked.

I actually got a nice amount of seeds made up from the BlueMoons (several M&F parents), its one of the lines I'm working(breeding).

:chin: im havin one of them there brainstorms...either that or a mild stroke...:biggrin:

i was just getting my cooler ready to go bbq tonight at a friends house out of town...and as i noted how perfectly the cooler slid right into the trailer i thought "why it wouldnt take much to strap a hibachi to the front of the trailer" and at that moment the baby jeebus came down and said unto me.."let he who pulleth the trailer sup upon grilleth meats in the wilderness,and yeah,let him slaketh his thirst with chilled malted barley beverages....and the lord did looketh upon the grill marks and heareth the meaty sizzle and sacred fizziness of the bubbly brew,and he did say,dude...bitchin..."

ive been thinking for years about finding some spot in the many many many acres of blm land around here and setting up a camping spot away from the local parks...im pretty sure my 30 gallon barrel fits the trailer and i could see taking it out and finding a spot and burying the barrel as a gear and water stash...kinda hack a nice campsite out of the desert and leave a bunch of stuff up there so its an easy jaunt out with a small load...plenty of tarps and what not for shade,maybe some lawn chairs....i know theres some rock outcrops or groups of boulders off by themselves that would make sweet spots...may even need to build trail to get to them,but mo' betta i say...
