these look kind of like Ice Cream tubs, lol....
May I recommend something if you wanna go the inexpensive route...
and
Aye, good bru. Apart from grinding at work the moment with having to deal with a Chinese company in South Africa, that previously ripped us off in Germany...lol. The things you have to do today to make a coin, haha. And also looking forward to some warmth and a week away cycling in the South of France. So you just moved, settling in?

Working on it.
Sent my resume off to a few places..
Trying to get some beans to pop. Heat mat isnt cutting it, it is still too damn cold.
Gonna do sidejobs (landscaping/yard work) in the meantime. Apparently they pay well up here for that kind of work.
Not enough mexicans up here i guess. lol

I've actually read about people using it and getting good results. Thats why i tried it. I do know now after the fact if you look at the n.p.k. on their plant food is different from even just size of boxes. Ex. your multi purpose npk is 15-30-15 in your post. The multi purpose in my shed is 24-8-16 wich is weird. Maybe they sell different formulas to different regions.

My wife thinks I am extremely condescending when it comes to firearms safety.
She has a little bit of gun handling experience from when she was a child (we were both born & raised in Alaska where gun use is a means of survival for many).
But she hasn't fired a gun in over 30 years.
I, myself, have not touched off a round in almost 15 years.
5 years ago she bought a snub-nosed S&W .38, and I have bugged her from day one to go with me down to a gun range so we can spend a day to get familiar with the weapon so that, in the event that she has to use it, she will be able to do so without hurting herself or an innocent bystander.
She has held off on doing so, much to my chagrin, and it is a contentious point when we periodically discuss it.
I want us both to go to the relative safety of an indoor gun range, take a gun safety course (myself included), and bring about 1,000 round of ammunition to get used to this particular gun.
Out of Alaskan Pride (and I feel her desire to not be embarrassed about her lack of skills in a public setting, just my hunch) she has refused, and just wanted to go somewhere secluded to pop off a few rounds with a friend of hers and that friend's husband, whom I don't know, and have zero trust in.
We got into a very heated argument the other night about it and about what truly constitutes "Firearms Safety".
I do condescend when it comes to this subject, but only in the face of obstinence and aversion to doing the right thing.
Yes: you can go off into the woods and practice, and 99.9999% of the time nothing will come of it.
But Oregon is "crowded", so even if you think you are secluded, you might not be, which means bullets will be flying where they shouldn't be.
Especially with the kind of handgun she purchased.
She is not even strong enough to pull the trigger with one hand when the gun is not cocked (dual-action trigger), and I worried she'd be trying to do it with a couple of idiot friends out in the woods, barrel of the gun going in all directions as she strained to fire of a round.
Not a good scenario.
She is only able to fire the gun if she cocks it first.
She has no situational awareness of where the damn barrel is pointing.
She disregards the possibility of pedestrian traffic in proximity the where she would be shooting out in the "woods".
She thinks popping off a box (50 rounds) is plenty to get used to a weapon.
She disregards that in being out in the "woods" there is no 911 service available if something goes wrong.
And on and on and on.
I have been certified in the proper use and maintenance of every small arms in the US Army inventory (up to 1992).
I have helped instruct hundreds of young men on the proper use of their firearms.
And I would still take the damned gun safety course at a gun range just to make sure I haven't forgotten something that could end up costing someone their life, or risk injuring someone.
So she says it hurts her feelings, and I'm condescending.
To which I say:
If I come off as a condescending asshole when it comes to gun safety, GOOD.
I can easily live with that.
Especially if it makes someone think twice about the nonchalant handling of a firearm.
I love guns.
I love shooting.
But I treat them as if they were as serious as a heart attack.
Because when you stop doing so, people get hurt in the blink of an eye.
Fuck, I can't believe I'm even writing all this bullshit.
The argument with the wife drained me the other day, and this is too.
I will end it with saying that the wife finally saw that I am not only as serious about gun safety as anyone can be, but that I am an unmovable stone in my resolve for her to take it seriously (gun safety) and get training from a certified instructor to lessen the chance of an accident occurring do to ignorance.
I'm done.
Take from all this what you will.

I'm chilled out.
No strings were snapped in the making of music.
I just can't stand someone laughing at me (LOL) on such an important issue.
I get bent out of shape over it.
And for very good reasons.
I wasn't attacking the person, just the seeming lightness with which the subject matter seemed to be held by him.
I see it all the time.
Too many people playing Call of Duty games thinking that it's even close to the real thing, when it's barely a one-dimensional approximation.
The only thing about my combat experience is that I know I helped lots of our guys prepare beforehand, and I pulled my weight and then some when shit got real.
I don't divorce myself of my past or my actions during those years, because it is who I am, and it it's part of what made me who I am today.
I'm proud of my service, I'm proud of the men & women I served with, and I am proud of what we accomplished, even though it stuck in our craw that we weren't allowed to finish the job.
In hindsight, I know it's because, as horrible as it sounds, Saddam was a slightly lesser evil than those who would have attempted to take his place.
I realize that all countries have armies, as I've served alongside them as I served with our (U.S) troops.
I just hate a cavalier attitude when it comes to firearms.
Not sure of the age of the person, maturity level (see bong breaking video), or firearms experience from those in the UK who have not served in their military and been issued firearms.
And that is what I was perceiving from that person as he/she continued to post about something he can only suppose about with the fucking "LOL" attached or that all too happy smiley icon.
"LOL" means "Laugh Out Loud", and firearms stupidity, or depictions of unnecessary gun violence with that attached to it just blows my tiny little mind.
If you're going to post stuff like that, I feel it's best to not make light of it, because it tends to dilute the seriousness of the real world consequences that can happen when we get complacent.
And the "crystal polished" comment was the final straw.
Whether anyone wants to believe them or not, what I wrote are universal truths regarding gun safety, and the potential consequences we face when we forget.
Whenever I see such an apparent attitude towards gun safety, I react exactly as I did last night, and will always do so in the future.
It helps me to get sleep when I close my eyes at night.
My apologies if I ruined everyone's night/day with my statements, but I stand by each and every word.
And by the end of our argument (with my wife) I had her in agreement about going to a gun range with me, taking a gun safety course (of which I will take at the same time, as I cannot hold myself above such a basic thing and expect anyone else to take me seriously), bringing about 500 rounds each so we can both familiarize ourselves with the gun in a safe place where little can go wrong.
After that, I have no problem with her going to her friend's place in "the woods" to target practice, but you can bet I'll be grilling her on gun safety the entire time leading up to that day, at totally random times, until I know it's all stuck in her head permanently.
But I guess that makes me a blowhard prick.
It's all good.
Sorry for the looooong "rants".
Won't happen again.
