Believe it or not, I don't have one 😂
I'm also gonna have to take the fam out for dinner cause we can't cook anything. Just got home from grocery shopping, got everything put away and poof, power went out lol.
Everything is in veg still so whatever happens, happens. I'll just take more cuts ✂️

Went into town this morning to meet some friends for breakfast. Tried out a new place that has homemade biscuits and gravy. The biscuits were heavenly. The gravy well, you may bullshit a bullshitter some of the time.. All I can say is the lady does live over the top of the restaurant and it is made in her “home”..but that’s a big stretch on it. Bagged junk that looked like (and I fathom it tasting like) wall paste with sausage in it.
Anyways we met up at the “hole” down on the river for an early morning smoke, like we used to do when I was just a kid. Five of us still left, still hanging out at the river sneaking a smoke, sharing laughter and memories.
Here it is noon thirty and my whole day thus far has been great! I think I need a nap 💤 now…

I used to do a lot of golfing and in my 40's one of my favorite things to do was be out on the course at sun up with the greens grew and lawn mowing guys before it opened and smoke a fatty then do practice shots drop 4-5 balls from 150 yards out and see how close I could get or practice shots where ever the crew wasn't working.......I had permission I just paid when I left as the club house opened......

all by myself out with the birds, morning dew, light wispy fog in low laying area's 4:45ish am summer days it was surreal with the low sun slowly lighting the greens.....I haven't golfed now in 20 years since my hips went bad.......but I'm back and who knows I may whack a ball or 2 this year just to see if I can, early morning with no one else around and a joint in hand

Suggested it earlier. Doesn’t have one. Do the roots at least sit in the reservoir?

I’m thinking if it’s closed until powers back that might be okay since it’s so humid anyway. Otherwise dampen them every few hours. 🤷‍♂️

I have close to 100% success in growing out cuttings by simply trimming up the cut, by scraping off the bark 1" off the bottom dipping it in rooting gel and sticking it in a premade hole in a solo cup of promix /VPW30 with a drop of gel in the bottom, saturating it with water, cut all leaves at 90* to stop transpiration, spray, dome and keep warm, twice daily spraying dome and plants, once every 4-5 days more water....low light & they all grow.

I used to take 3-4 cuts of each plant to assure 1 would grow to keep the strain alive..........now I'll take just 1......they don't fail....ever....they don't seem to want to die even with abuse they just keep struggling back

I’ve been lucky too. I either do very similar to you or just toss them in a water can inside the tent under the canopy. 21 days or less nice roots most of the time. I just have to remember to dump and add fresh water.

Seeds I have to respect. ✊

I hear they put steak on salads 🤷🏻
Tell her that's what you want 😂
 
Rattlesnakes are moving tonight. My cat just alerted me to a Pygmy rattler. It moves no more. Right off my carport, and man did it blend in well with the yard. Those are the truly dangerous ones. Generally less than 12” and about as big around as a pencil.
Now that I have caught a buzz, it’s all snakes. Every single twig on the ground..

I can deal with spiders and rodents but snakes is where I draw the line. I'm like Indiana Jones :ROFLMAO:

Many moons ago, I had to do a couple weeks of training at Eglin AFB in Florida. It seemed like every crate or piece of equipment we moved had pygmy rattlers and scorpions under it. The snakes weren't really much of a threat as they were only big enough to bite a finger. The scorpions were similar to a bee sting. So, we just had to be aware of where we put our hands. It was weird to not really worry about during the day, but at night I dreamed those things were crawling all over me, lol. Supply screwed up and shipped our cold weather gear. It was hot and humid and our sleeping bags were suited for Alaska. So, I'd start out sleeping on top of my bag, but wake up inside it absolutely drenched in sweat.

That base had some serious people train there long before my little visit. I've read stories about the training the Special Forces did there before and during Vietnam. Those guys were truly amazing.
 
snakes and spiders i can deal with, but we only get timber rattlers around here and they pretty much leave ya alone.

but scorpions....

Yup, Florida is famous for the dusky Pygmy rattler, here we have what is called the western. Unlike the larger timber rattler that deliver small amounts of venom, these guys deliver a lot! All of us in my area live at least forty minutes to an ER. We have scorpions as well. Seldom seen, but they lay a big blister!

Rural living has its drawbacks, but the pluses are many. 40mins from the ER is a long time.

I'm pretty good with snakes unless I'm right on top of one before I see it. Most of what I have around me now are harmless. I live on a small creek and we have a small pond. So, we have plenty of banded water snakes. They have an attitude, but are harmless. Black snakes, garters, hog nose, corn... We do have copperheads, but not a regular encounter. My aunt found one that had crawled through the vent and into her dryer earlier this Summer.

We have timber rattlers that usually stay in higher elevations unless we're in a drought. I've only seen them on the road, but there are people who hunt them for fun and they can harvest some.

We need some rain. It's dry now with no rain forecasted.

Stay safe from all the creepy-crawlies.

All ya'll better enjoy your Friday. I'm headed to night shift tonight and my next day off is not in the forecast.

Pipe says when you're retired, every day is Friday. We'll when you're understaffed, every day feels like a Monday. Damn near gotta rock-paper-scissors or arm wrestle for a weekend off...
