What did you accomplish today?

[RetiredToker76]

^

always skeptical of members who joined 10 years ago, but have less than 200 posts. Like, what are you even doing here? I assume if your name is Dobby, socks are involved.

but just…why?

I can't speak for Dobby, but I think it was almost 10 years before I started really posting with any regularity. When I first joined in 2008, I used RIU as a grow manual, not a social platform. If I needed knowledge, I'd hit up the search feature. Like 99.9999% of all grow questions have been answered here in the past, I don't need to bother someone to get them to re-say what's already been said. There are states where it's still illegal to smoke, much less grow. So I can totally understand someone running a low post count. I wasn't comfortable at all posting until after we had legalization, that took another 8 years to happen after I created my username. Even then it took almost a year and a half for it to settle in that we wouldn't get tackled on the street for carrying a joint anymore.

Similar here. I joined a long time ago but wasn’t comfortable posting on RIU until recently. Have always kept a really small digital footprint and am still old school paranoid about “they” knowing what I’m doing.
I also stopped growing for a few years but came back to it a couple years ago.
Not someones sock, but by Metasynth’s metric I must look like one with the low post count.
I really just didn’t post until recently, but I do now and plan to keep doing so.

Welcome to TnT.

Sink or swim. Full contact posting is not uncommon.

Please enjoy your stay.

We will!

I need to get a life, meh, I'll just make another post.
Painted the aquarium stand and put the new tank on it, filled it, and put in the new heater. Might be warm enough by morning to put the fish in it. Gorilla glue makes a mess, I'll have to touch up the paint when it dries.

Gorilla glue is an essential standard addition to my tool kit. It has a place on the shelf with the Duct tape.

GG #4 is a favorite go to.

I found a green bikini to match my new green tattoo.

Pics or it didn't happen?

I piled on to an early morning flushing thread, denied being a sock on RIU, then built some bamboo supports on 2 of my outdoor plants. Didn’t get any new swimwear or find uses for Gorilla Glue, but there’s always Sunday.

A day of soil and compost building. Making a decent potting soil for my wife to use in her greenhouse, making super soil for me. I'm just a dirty guy!!!

Errands and garden chores today was pretty much all we did today.

 

[Aeroknow]

I did a few things today. Nothing special.
My biggest accomplishment today will be hitting the sack in a few minutes. Long day.
My grandaughters 1st birthday party is tomorrow. I’ll spend the night at my daughters and be poisoned all of monday. It’s hard kickin it with the kids nowadays.
Prob drink like 10 different booze concoctions, and some shrooms. Typical party over there.

I sat here contemplating this. Thinking yes some of the phenos from the reversal really did have a less than thrifty habit! I have no excuse, stone cold sober here. Ok maybe not fully caffeinated

It's Sunday, get to it!

First, the hard work this month. Glad that stuff is done, hate wearing all the hard hats, vests, glasses.

Powdercoat line, it takes finished parts thru the spray booth and into a vacuum oven, like Domino's.
Before it was automated, I used to bring stuff from home and hang it on the line as it ran,


Back to the undersea cable factory...looks like extrusion coating on fiber optic


Tooling Shop, small place that can make anything, those are industrial food processor parts.


High pressure parts being milled for compressed gasses,


Micro refinery for used oil and solvents. 13 million gallons a year

Thank you, I always enjoy your pictures.

I found a new place to get stoned somewhere between those factory jobs, but can't remember where it is afterward. I've got it narrowed down to 2 states.
Nice rock ridge and cliff walk on the exposed granite, no trail or people


Also found a Norman settlement...a "Summer chapel" on the coast. There's another one up the coast, I'll check it out.


Huge greenhouse, mums and poinsettias are the next crops
I like the sliding grow tables, overhead track drive fertigation sprayers, and drip emitters for hanging planters.

I found out 2 hrs is the limit for trying to remove a center link without a tie rod puller, I knocked the tie rods out easy peasy.

Weed whipped the fence line on the HS baseball field. Then picked tabasco and habanero peppers today for fermenting and drying.

Also got one of the cannabis plants tied up to the bamboo supports. Stunk of weed pretty good after that activity, lots of plant fondling going on. Beer and football with the neighbors now. Never did find new swimwear.
