HA! great minds, but I smoked a dozen brats...My beer shelf is happy also. Made name tags for the beans I'm about to pop. Buds and suds time.
Thanks for reminding me I need to start popping beans soon


Today I watered the big 4 with neem meal tea because they started lightening up a bit. Watered everything with 50 million nematodes. Sprayed everything with BT after I plucked a lil budworm. 9000 reinforcements(ladybugs) are en route.

dude if you were closer, i would invite ya....

8 different flavors of space tomatoes.....just saying
I still have plenty of buds in the garage, but thanks for the invite. I know the grow room needs fired up to overwinter my wife's pineapple plant, and some boonie peppers, so I figure I should grow some space tomatoes in there also. I forgot to mention my greatest accomplishment, I rescued an alligator lizard from my storage bin. I have no idea how long it was in there but it was PISSED! Luckily it crawled into a pot in the bin so I didn't get bit.

That’s something I have never been able to say. This go round, I’m planning for much different results. I have an entire garage as apposed to a small closet. I quickly realized that being a garage in Florida, the “winter” lol months are going to be my friend. Not that I’m using the whole garage just that I have plenty of room. Gonna throw up a tent. And maybe, just maybe, I’ll have plenty of buds in the garage :weed:

The Ganja gods have been nice to me, other than the aphid infestation. With the tincture I made, and the concentrates I have, the harvest from two crops of buds lasts me awhile. I still have over a pound from the two types I grew last, I just keep burping the jars. Summer here is too damn hot, winter is too cold, but the lights reduce the amount of heating I need.

I am in the same boat - I still have flowers from 2017, flowers & trim from 18 plus butter & coconut oil infusion.
Guess I'm a better grower than a consumer. :wink:

I saved the gummy recipe someone posted, I need to get some molds.
Here's the ones I got - just be advised it takes two people to fill them before the mixture becomes too thick.
And have a sheet pan covered w/ parchment paper to pour the excess onto.

But you're usually in trouble when the pitcher looks at you like this

Better luck tonight.
This will go 7 games so you'll be seeing this guy again. Don't stare into his eyes or you'll strike out looking.

I replaced the driver's side lower control arm on a 2011 nissan versa from the rust belt.

It just needed a ball joint, which blew apart when I was backing up and turning. Couldn't press it out, oh well the replacements for that are $40. BUT the whole control arm assembly with bushings and a ball joint was $80... nice. I'm glad it was me driving and it was at slow speed and it was literally at the bottom of the driveway. AAA laughed when I said I needed a 20 foot tow. lol

But the nissan engineers put the 4" swing bolt for the control arm right in front of the transmission with only 1" of clearance... fuck. luckily there's a slam plate pair right there in case the motor mounts fail so a perfect spot for a bigass prybar. took like 5 seconds to get that out, gotta be careful to not use too much force because the play comes from bushings and motor mounts and those arent fun to replace. The ball separated completely from the ball joint and it was a real bitch to get the pinch bolt out of the knuckle (thanks winter), so I hit it with penetrating oil last night and knocked it back and forth with a 2lb. and teased it out.

Also, the wheel speed sensor broke off flush and to get that out without messing up the tone ring I put a deck screw about 2" into the 3" sensor body until it hit the steel core inside the sensor and used vise grips on the screw and a small pry bar to tease it out. WAAAAY better than drilling or using heat. plus I don't have a press so I would have had to pay someone to press the hub out of the knuckle to make sure I got it clean enough to not make the new sensor fail or get shit into the wheel bearing or something else stupid.
