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

Got up at 445, sat around the house until 1030 when i took my kids fishing.
We got to the lake and i was attacked by fishing spiders. Not even joking, they were the size of softballs!!
So i killed 2 of them and away we went, got to where we wanted to be and i went to drop the anchor and here is another softball sized fishing spider wiggling her damn fangs at me while she sat on her egg sac....
So we paddled back to shore because if i staryed messing with that thing on the boat, i was gonna end up wet. Im not scared of spiders, but when i can see their fangs clear as day, im just not comfortable anymore.

We killed all the spiders, then i flipped the boat over to be sure there were no more.

So i stand by what i said yesterday. The fishing spider i found in my 4x4 tent, hitched a ride home from the lake....

What is a fishing spider?

Thank you, my offer has a few contingencies, like finishing school and a background check. Never heard of an offer before a check was done so I don't really know if they already did one or don't plan on doing one. Nothing of this was ever mentioned in the interviews. I've got some stuff 10+ years back and just hoping for the best.. Either it's too far back to matter or they let me fight my case, all the stuff I've done since then, like go back to school, volunteer work, etc...

Just nervous and hoping it works out

hey Congrats. i've had offers that were based on passing Background and all of that. not sure about an offer and finish your degree. how far away are you from that?
 
Morning yall...hope everyone has an enjoyable weekend. Went to check my outdoor this morning. It's a lady bug swingers party on my plants, found 3 seperate sets of lady bugs mating on 2 different plants. We are one this year apparently, a team...I provide the bed and breakfast they're getting fed and laid in the shade keeping my plants free of pests. Have had some leaf hoppers not too worried about them though, they aren't doing much and will be gone before long. Rain needs to chill soon, all in all...goin good outdoor this year.

Good to hear!

It's a damn beautiful morning here in VA, but I think it's going to be a little hot today

Hope everyone enjoys their weekend

I'm loving some real Southern cheese grits right now
 
It was a nice morning at 5am but it’s 9:45 now and the downpour stopped a few minutes ago. Humid as heck again now and supposed to be hot later.

Switched from drying in the tent to Lotus method again. I can’t get temps lower than 20c-22c and humidity keeps bumping up. So I hope this dodges any mold issues.

29oz wet with little to no branches after 6 days drying in the tent. G$ guesses 14oz dry but I’m hoping for closer to low 20’s. 🤞
 
Up at 3:30 AM
Drove 130 miles east to be with my lady and my foothill plants (mostly my lady).
Plants are looking happy but need a little bit of water and nutrients.
Two plants are winding down week 3, but the outdoor plant is just now in the stretch, bud sites a plenty!

Don’t know what the rest of this week hold, but next week, a wedding in Hawaii awaits.
We’re celebrating my GF’s son and daughter-in-law getting married at sunset in Kauai.

I always tell people that I know the nature of the animals in my front yard, but folks in the city..they have no definitive idea of the animals that walk through their yards.

Not so darn good. The Hubby and I both agreed today to put this ole gal out to pasture and haul out my new build. I was going to shoot my old gun til the end of the year to defend my Shooter of the Year title in my division last year. The new gun will take me out of tactical and move me to an open class. After today’s performance and two prior, it does not leave me much of a choice. I’m not used to coming in fifth.
At amy rate, I always say a bad day on the range is better than a good day at work 🙂

As a kid an adult told me that daddy long legs have a bad venom but because the fangs are to short they couldn’t hurt us.

Haven’t thought of that in a long time. Now I wonder if it’s true.

Older I got the more I found out most adults are full of shit, even if they don’t know it. 🤣

These and scorpions are cool. Even interesting to watch and follow along. Maybe they can deal with the fracken spiders! 😝

It’s BS of course;
“That leaves us with cellar spiders, the only true spiders of the bunch. These can, in fact, bite humans. Their fangs are similar to those of the brown recluse (Loxosceles reclusa), Vetter said, which is notorious for its potentially fatal bite to humans. But that's where the similarities end.

"I'm not aware of any publication showing that pholcid spiders cause a toxic effect in humans," Vetter said. "I think one scientist did some work on that, and he had a little black mark for a day or two and went, 'It's not that big of a deal.' Definitely not the most toxic spider in the world."

Venom analysis has confirmed that. On a 2004 "Mythbusters" episode that was later documented in a 2019 study, arachnologist Charles Kristensen reported injecting mice with venom of either cellar spiders or black widow spiders. The black-widow venom had a much more potent effect.”

I was told by the curator at a Las Vegas museum that daddy long leg spiders have some of the most potent venom of any spider alive.....the problem for them is their fangs are not sharp enough to penetrate our skin and they can't give enough venom to cause us any harm....but if they could bite us and give us the amount of venom in a black widow bite we'd be dead quickly....gram to gram its more deadly than most spiders poisons
 
Around here it’s the dreaded brown recluse. One knows to always shake out your clothes and look inside of your shoes boots etc before putting them on. The tarantula and the wolf are scary looking, but harmless.
 
Idk if you all saw the story come out a week or so ago about a little boy who let himself get bit by a black widow in hopes of becoming Spiderman...

www.newsweek.com

Boy, 8, let black widow bite him because he wanted to become '"Spider-Man"

After being bitten, the boy captured the spider in a glass and went home. Around three hours after, he began to feel bad but soon recovered with anti-venom.

Glad I don't have kids crazy enough to try this... legal Kid count=0, maybe kids out there=2 😂
