yeah its pretty crazy....he buys and sells records almost daily. Usually come home at lunch to let the dogs out and theres always a media mail box at the door....when we goto Berkley or anywhere with a bitchin record store I usually have to find about 3 hours to kill....all the vinyl on the shelves in the living room do look pretty nice though

dans, have you tried smart pots? its what ive been using the last couple rounds and im pretty happy with em....rinse em and toss em in the washer without soap and they come out lookin like new! just a thought!

I did & i still have a dozen or more 3 gallon pots here . i threw them in the washer ... like everybody else does .... & they didn't come clean :dunno: i direid them out , ruffed them up to try & break up some of the white shit (salts i'm assuming ) & threw them in the wash again . same thing ... not clean . so i basicly gave up on them . didn't like them as much as the hard pots anyways . they didn't seem deep enough to me , plus i wanted to go back to bigger hempys so i grabbed some 3 1/2 gallon black buckets & have been using them & the white squares . just grabbed a bunch of white square 3 gallons , so i can reuse the coco in those a couple times before i've got to dispose of it .
i'm always changing something here :) i just like trying different things till i find something i really like . coco i like , so i stick with it .

:laughing: yup,you guys just never quite manage to make marriage sound like any fun:whip:

im just gonna play with my toys!

actually i just took half my rei wish list away,im gonna keep my eye on the bargain bin and sierra trading post for a down jacket,those things cost some serious coin...same with the down sleeping quilt,it would be nice,but i got a lightweight synthetic bag for a 1/5 the cost,more like 1/8th the cost...not getting a bivy sac either,just getting a bug bivy for less than half the cost and i already have a small tarp in case it rains....and i admit i would carry a bug shelter or a tent just because of spiders,i know tarantulas are harmless and only rarely bite but they freak me the fuck out!!

Joe, theres some other brands out there that do just as well but arent as pricey as smart pots. Root pouches, geopots, and i forget the others....

i actually have a friend in the construction business and she brought me 300 sqft of the EXACT same material they use (they use theres for erosion control) and we, and by we I me she did and I drank a beer, sewed up one just in a square pattern and it came out great...actually ended up more circular when filled with dirt! i ended up having her make about 5 more and i used them outdoors in my veggie garden

i hate those grow bags,always end up making a mess when i water,i do like the smart pots though...one nice thing about the 45 gallon pots is i feel no need to empty them and try and clean them...i mean the plant i get out of them will be worth a decent used car,im not going to quibble about a 12 dollar pot...i can grow my 'maters in them or whatever veggies i might want after one use....they make great add on garden space,i have a 100 gallon outside that did great for the squash i grew...

Yeah the bags are messy when hand watering. I have 3 drip sticks in each of the 6 bags and use 30 gallons of water every time. I get about 3 gallons of run off from that. I get the run off right at the end of the feed cycle so they help me know when enough is enuff :D

We have these things locally.

and they can carry Chagas disease, which is very similar to african sleeping sickness. A friend in my microbio class had some tested from her yard and they came back positive for the trypanosomes. Luckily, they have to bite you and then shit in the wound to transmit... ah nature LOL

wait,you're giving this guy a lap dance? what?
I know, scurd me, dident know if it was a dance or his ass he was dropping in his lap, kinda threw up a little thinking about it.

Dans don't count on him coming out of cheap mode, some guys just wont do it, you can show them the math and the $ signs but they wont change.

Just took 2 of the OG X Mango Haze down 4 more still cookin. Oh boy this stuff looks killer. Looks like I can get this to yield ok. not a big yield but OK.

I did notice some naners on the older GG X HB. they where on some scruff left on the bottom after I lollipoped them so I picked them off and pruned it a bit more at the bottom. The younger one does not show any. I will keep an eye on them both. I checked all other plants none on those.
