Wearing Masks

They carry Canna at my local grow shop. I'll give it a try.


It's reusable as well. I have stuff growing in coco that I've already used twice before. I put it through a 1/4 inch screen to get most of the roots out and it's good as new. Saves having to dump a bunch of stuff after every harvest and saves money too. Probably good for the environment as well I don't know.

I've tried reusing coco but by the time the plants finish with it it's more roots than coco. Do you rinse it ot remove any extra salts?

I feed straight water for a good while before harvest so by the time it's done there's nothing left in there as far as salts go. Runoff is the same coming out as it is going in, which is pretty much zero.

My stuff is more roots too by the end. When there's just the right moisture in it it breaks up pretty easily though. Then I rub it around the screen and the Coco falls through and the roots stay on the screen. It is a bit of a pain in the ass I'll admit. I do it when I'm bored or when I need to think. Mindless tasks are good for that.

The media has always spewed bunk, nothing new under the sun there.

Which has not a thing to do with personal safety, there are indeed nasty
things out there, and we can count on seeing more in the future.
My spouse was a public health specialist who died from H1N1.
I know how it feels to worry about a sick loved one,
and how it feels to loose them.
I would not wish it upon anyone else.

Which is why I repeatedly urge caution.

It's super easy, just take it out of the pots and break it down a bit, but the coco/ root mix in a big tub and keep moist and it will break down in no time.
Sorry I didn't pay attention to how exactly you're growing, but if the coco is simply the base medium for an organic soil recipe, it's even easier. Simply add fresh amendments after each run (might need a bit of trial and error to dose correctly depending on how much ferts are still left after a round)

Same can be said about ; The Democrat/Republican Party , the CIA , the FBI & any other Govt. Agency/Administration . The WHO , the CDC , the NIH & all other vaccine sales people , manufactures & investors . So what else is new ?

Sorry for your loss .

I do not wish ill health on anyone & I do practice caution when I am personally ill . I don't go out nor do I have people over , I warn them .

You left out YouTube...and the Resident...and pretty much ALL business...the police, individual politicians....

Asymptomatic carriers are and have been a thing for, umm, CENTURIES, so I take my temperature daily to keep track (no fever so far), and I wear a mask every time I’m out and around anyone; I wear gloves, too - and sanitize *them* between stops.

Not only do I not want to inadvertently hand it off to someone else, but one of my roommates is immune compromised, and she has autistic kids: the *LAST THING* I want is to end up with her dying and us having to take care of her kids.

Self-care takes many forms, yo

Mt Rush-more trump supporters to vote against him bravo I'm telling you he's digging all the way to china he called it the China virus again on live TV speech the other day ...
you watch in two weeks the highest deaths per day and new cases per day will be all over the news

I'm going to sell blue Biden bandanas lol and red maga ones too go make some cash you all from my free idea. in big letters so everyone looks like a bunch of gangster bandits covering their faces. Bandanas work very well better than any mask for me
Who will start the Goggle trend? Didn't they wear goggles back with the first cars? Now dirt bike and hog riders use em

Went to meijer today.
Wore my mask, everyone was wearing one too.

I kept thinking to myself....
When the pandemic was at full tilt, I was one of the few to wear a mask.
Now months later everyone has one on, and no one is sick.

It really makes no sense to me at all but I was a good little sheep and fell in line.
I did not want to be done like old george was.

Yeah yeah. Have to get rid of Mr. Trips so you can reopen. If that's the only way, so be it.

Just read - It may be airborne.

I went down to the nearest city today made 6 stops, at various stores, had some work done on my car and it was hot, I have one thing to say about masks, THEY SUCK. At 2:00 in walmart with a mask on I felt like I was going to pass out. I over did it today but when you go down to the city you need to make it worthwhile. It wore my 66 year old body out, glad I made it home. I sure hope they get a handle on this so we don’t need to wear masks, at least I don’t have to go to the city for awhile...

I believe the quickest a vaccine has been produced in the past is four years.
The administration made a very large investment in a massively accelerated vaccine program.
I wish them well with the effort.
Hearing of private Drs offices locally that are closing due to a lack of PPE
availability. The nurses union is confirming the shortage.
We had the expertise and the plans to have had a very
different outcome. The plans and the personal needed to implement them
were set aside in favor of...
The administration chose to make war on public health. That was an expensive mistake. A decent national healthcare program is the right thing to do. It has never been more needed.

As of 5pm today you have to wear a mask out in public here. This by decree of the county road commissioner, with his health dept employee. City mayor is also in the power circle. foochie is calling for local munis to require masks.

I rocked my legal murder mountain hat, shades, and black bandana going into the suburban neighborhood supermarket. No N95 under it. BTW, you can drink a bottled water wearing a bandana, and they require masks in bars and restraunts!

Consumption is 2/3's the economy. They cannot replace it with stimilis checks. People aren't going out shopping for anything but TP and food, and kush. They aren't driving. They aren't moving and buying / selling houses. Yardwork is way up though!

No wonder the price of dope, er I mean soothing medication, has gone up.

- I was hoping that this isolation palava would have given many more people the thought of growing their own 'erb - rather than having to try and buy it - anyone with a bit of spare space - should be at it - if that's what you need -

*I don't go out much these days - and I do have a mask - if needs be -
