CannaGranny’s Corner a Thread For General BS and Good Will On BudBuilders

Went to bed sad... couldn't find our kitty.
Woke up and hollered for her again... still no kitty.
Walked around the yard hollering... no kitty
Checked one more spot and I HEARD KITTY...

She got locked in the chicken coop... dumb kitty.

Glad you found her.
shortly after we got our two kitties (indoor only), one got out!
Disappeard! We put a pile of my dirty laundry outside near the door, next morning she’s sleeping on my dirty tee shirts! Scooped her up and never let her near a door again!

here cars are the biggest issue, but in many areas of the country, kitties are just a snack to something bigger. Always makes me worry about missing kitties

So happy you found dumb kitty!
 
This morning in my area a search and rescue team are being put together. A Father and his ten year old Son failed to return home after making a trip down here to hike the Mark Twain National Forest. Car is still at the trailhead.
The area they are in is called the Irish Wilderness. I’m hoping for the best, but many go in there and never come out. It’s one eerie ass place. I don’t go there.
I went deer hunting there ONE time and I will never go back. Hoping for the best.
 
Mornin Pipe!
Gmorning Granny, a cold -11C here, it was a nice clear night with a bright full / close to full moon, with the small amount of snow we have it was like dusk at midnight, Would have been a beautiful time for a walk in the dark if it wasn't so cold.

My crop is failing..sorta,, 2 Strawberry Purps look locked up, all leaves yellow, last night at lights out 1 plant looked like it was hanging more than it should and something was off, Bone dry, I had a blockage in my lines, I checked them all and 1 other was blocked as well with some muck. I have filters supposed to stop that shit, alas 3 plants look great anyways. My res tank is clean I don't know where the muck came from....I cleaned it up and they are up better this am.

I have an elect problem, we keep blowing 30 amp house fuses when we use the dryer. I took it apart and checked everything alls good. Must be the dryer so we bought a new dryer, Keep blowing fuses with the new dryer, it wasn't the dryer Fk....Our house has an old 100 amp fuse panel and the whole house need rewiring but I don't have that kind of cash to do it. I used to be an Electrician and I've checked everything but I'm at a loss to whats going on...frustrating as heck. I'll smoke 1 or 10 and see if I get some mental inspiration to figure this thing out.

Have you tried replacing the fuse/breaker?
I know you know electricity.

Well my friend I don’t know what to say about all of that! Sounds like you are on it tho! I’m for certain no electric guru.
That Lemon Lava Lime is a big azz plant, just FYI. If it’s all the rage I’m hearing about, you may want to clone it since beans are damn hard to get to you!
Clear skies here last night, full moon and treated to a meteor that caused a sonic boom!

Yes, 6 times and tried 6 different fixes but they keep blowing 1 side of 2 - 30 amp fuses. I'm now thinking our house has an imbalanced load some how effecting the load on the 30 amp dryer fuse...its making my head spin. I have a small 30 amp sub panel off my 100amp and total load is getting up there but its a poorly wired house anyways and it needs a rewire.

Over loading dryer , check exhaust vent line right to outside if pluged up will kick dryer out blow fuse, to much on one circuit

Thanks for the heads up on the LLL, I liked how my plants turned out my last run after a short veg. This run I had issues getting all my seeds popped and growing at the same time so 2, (the ones I'm having issues with) are almost 3 weeks older than the rest. If I can get my girls all healthy at 4 weeks old I'm flipping. I've been vegging too long all along I think shorter with an early flip is the way to go..

I think the box you shipped in may have been too big, They like small and flat. That's why I ordered the DVD case from CaptRB I was thinking that was the safest way. Don't get me wrong I appreciate all you sent in the box I like the stickers too...

I gotta give my boy Dusky his asthma meds ( twice daily 10 puffs 2 timesDusky.JPG)

If the fuse blows after 5-10 minutes its not a short in the circuit.Check for tight connections at the fusepanel, receptacle & dryer connections to be sure. If not maybe need to change out the 30 amp sub panel

do you happen to have a clamp meter?

if not, these work great for constant monitoring.. i've used this one here quite a few times to find load suckers... it has a magnet built in so it sticks right to the box and just put alligator clips on the power leads and steal power from the box..


one of these days i'm going spoil myself and get one of those thermal meters!!

I went deer hunting there ONE time and I will never go back. Hoping for the best.
Any update to this?
Hoping they were found alive.

We had issues years ago with the dryer but then other things. I noticed after a week of checking things that it was only on windy days. The main line coming into the house was loose. Every time the wind blew hard we’d lose one phase. When the service guys arrived he said he reached up to grab the cable and it came off in his hand.

We’ve had a few lightning strikes over the years too. Killed a few things outright and others just wore out much sooner than expected from the extra stress.
 
recently I’ve been seeing a lot about “federally compliant cannabis”.

hmm, what’s that?

not to exceed 0.3% THC.

WTF? Thats like non-alcoholic beer and uncaffinated coffee/tea? What’s the point?

I don’t toke because it looks cool when I stand on the corner, I want those cannibioids.

I think I’m going to come up with a sceme to sell 0 octane gasoline (rainwater) back to the government.

I’m thinking I’m getting more and more out of touch with this world and the current level of weird.

I think it stayed in the U S so long as here the month of December is a total mess due to Christmas. I saw once it got out of the US it passed customs pretty quickly. Not to mention that Chicago is a f’ed up mess right now.

No I don't have an amp meter, they are not usually needed on residential power. Unbalanced loads are uncommon in homes with such a small load. Other than the dryer and some lights and TV, Fridge we don't have the stove going or Microwave or anything that draws a lot of power and there's no dead short, it runs for a bit then blows a fuse.

Gmorning, another cold snappy one this am. Clear and no wind but the ground is solid like concrete. We feed some crows and small birds that hang around through the winter, Peanuts, Sunflower seeds and suet the crows come for the Peanuts and will sit in the trees calling for us when the ground is covered in snow. I shovel off our old well head and put down the nuts and seeds. I call it Diamond mining, hoping the crows drop me something shiny as a payback....nothing yet...still hoping...lol

If your exhaust line is clear to the outdoors then its your 30 amp pony panel thats blowing the fuse change the panel

Hey. Gmorning. The air exhaust line is clear and its not the 30 amp sub panel that's blowing the fuse, The sub panel holds a15 amp 2 pole for my well water pump and the 2 pole 20 amp hot water tank with 2 other 15 amp utility power plugs that currently have.......come to thinking about that I may have some of my grow lights on them but that still doesn't explain the Dryer blowing a 30 amp on the house panel....I have some work to do, I'll have to trace out all of my circuits and see wtf is going on. I've traced the 3#10 from the panel to the dryer and its not cut or split. I've tested the lines to ground and there's no faults. The receptacle is good wires tight. The wires are tight in the panel and I have now 7 dead 30 amp fuses in front of me and drying close all over the house...lol...not a happy chuckle there.
