I decided to not be such a lazy fucker today.

Got the back lawn done. Removed a load of fallen tree branches. Started to clean out the garbage accumulated in the shed. Which is gonna need either a dump run or a miniskip to clear. And I cleaned up the lower canopy on my mystery lady.

So I tried some Roots Organic 707 this year.....I just added some extra perlite.....it did awesome and it's cheaper for me than the FFOF ....not to mention the bucket of sticks and rocks i have from the FFOF.......I think I'm guna start using 707 instead from here on out.....until I get my @Gary Goodson mix perfected over the next few grows....I'm really impressed with my recycled soil guys....I amended with all DTE products some locally sourcedEWC and lime ....I almost feel like I got lucky ......such little added nutes with amazing results....thanks for your help again Gary .....if you were closer I'd hook you up homie .....probably a good thing your not close ....sounds like trouble....lol

Have you tried vermisoil and vermifire yet? A killer soil with some coco in it.
Start in vermisoil or black gold natural and organic and than pot up into vermifire. Top dress with dr earth and a weekly tea will grow you the biggest tree outdoor possible.

For our bigger crops, We had some primo soil trucked in from Kinney's nursery. But I got plenty buddies rocking the vermifire on some smaller crops. Good shit.

The greencrop nutrients? Someone passed their bag on to me. I'm going to do a comparison between it, dynagro and a third choice yet to be determined.

Looks like good stuff.

Yeah, that was me.

To ship a bag to the UK would have cost a fortune in postage due to the weight. I only grow 2 plants at a time, so don't get through nutes too quickly - a £1 100ml sample type bottle will last roughly a full auto plants grow, so a 2300g bag will take literally years to use up. To pay £40 postage or whatever it converts to for a bag doesn't really make sense at the moment.

Now my MS suffering missus has got into vaping, the Mephisto Sour Livers I am just about to finish will easily last her 6 months, especially with what we already have in jars from previous grows. As any form of cultivated cannabis is illegal in the uk, I am safer to keep some legal 'souvenir' seeds until then rather than do another grow and get into even more shit if I get caught, so I wouldn't even open the bag until next spring.

It made sense to let someone else have the bag, and I want to see your comparison grow if I am honest. I know you will do a proper job of it, rather than do a half assed effort.

The height of the float tower thing is adjustable, but I've gotta drain the tank & unscrew it. I think. It's been a while.
You can actually see a stream of water shooting into the tube! Fuck, it's worse than I thought!
I just turned off the water supply. That toilet is out of order until this is fixed.

It might not hurt to replace those rusty bolts that hold that tank on the base. A little preventative maintenance? What do you think?

Those fucking things don't last long! Maybe I'll turn down the water pressure at the valve on the wall.
I installed the same thing on the other two toilets, so I should check them too. If they are all fucked, I'm buying a different brand.
Got any recommendations? They really should last more than a couple of years before starting to leak.

Most new toilets are garbage lol. Only decent brand left is Kohler.. rip out the insides and replace it with Fluidmaster parts. You'll be fine then

Thank you again.

I grow for the same reason. Medicine and its illegal here as well. Though not bad for a few plants. Just a ticket but still a risk.

Its safer to grow a few plants instead of buying. That and you never know what you get or what we used when buying.

Hate to hear about your wife having ms. It also sucks that its illegal for the people that do need it.

If you ever do get in trouble for it take it to court. You stand a good chance if winning as long as you don't sell and she has a legitimate need like that.

I couldn't imagine you would though. Follow a couple rules. Mainly keeping your mouth shut.

I'm guilty of opening my mouth. I've never told anyone I grow or shown anyone. My friends aren't stupid though. I pull out a j and they ask where I got it from.

I've taken the time to show a couple people how to grow.

The only people who know i grow are my wife and everbody on here. My kids don't even know we have ever even smoked, never mind there being plants in our garage! If I wasn't on a forum i would struggle to not tell somebody, so it is really good to be able to post on here in that respect.

I can understand that. When one takes pride in what they do its hard not to tell someone.

Don't bend the arm, the washer is likely just done for. Mine was a bit older so I couldn't find replacement washers, but the shops carry most of the later designs'
I bought an adjustable height outlet valve, but I left it for tomorrow.
