This is basically every "crisis" we get introduced to on a 4 year cycle.
In other news: I got your smasher up and going and I ordered some 90 micron bags and some parchment paper. We'll be making rosin within a week.
I smashed a nug on the plates just to try it out. It made some dark wax that tasted ok. I can't wait for the filter bags to arrive. I have 5 ounces of bunk I need to smash
Sometimes ( always) the only way to get the real story is go to to the source ! And yes agreed politics is ugly and both side are dirty as fuck !Man that water rig is tits!!! I'm keeping that thing fo-eva as my go-to!
I'm actually using the foot pedal in my hand and have the wiring all rigged up and tidy so I pretty much just stand there with the pedal in my left hand, water wand in my right, and move it around from plant to plant like an old man watering the lawn.
What's even cooler is how the water flows from the shower head and circles around the top dead space above the soil kinda like how a toilet flushes with spinning water down the drain. Same thing here and I find it eliminate any chance of soil compaction or uneven drainage.
I can't recommend this style of watering plants enough!
Last time I was at the border this is the "invasion" I saw

That my friend is the muddy banks of the Rio Grande and that's my dog making the crossing into Mexico without a passport. These two knuckleheads were the only border jumpers there that day.
Waste of money sending the ING down here. I don't wanna get political and I despise every fucking politician/liar walking this Earth but I will say this...There is no bigger lie being told to the American public than the so called crisis and invasion at the southern border of Texas. It's a manufactured ruse invented by liars on both side of the aisle. An okey doke to grab attention away from real problems in this country. Nothing more.
It’s gonna take a little practice , do you guys pre press ? Or just fill bags ? I agree with bandit start at 180-190 - I put minimum pressure let material heat up for 20/30 seconds then put material under pressure hardly ever go over 2 /3 tons for about 1 minute or until resin stops flowing whole process takes 2/3 minutes tops for me , to cold, to much pressure to fast will equal blowouts in ur bags - u will find what works for you play with it !This is basically every "crisis" we get introduced to on a 4 year cycle.

glad to hear you got the mites under control!!!
i've really been liking the great white/king crab combo... i kept calling it killer crab in my thread, haha i kinda wish it was watered down a little more though, tough to dose for pints and quarts for me, i never use an entire gallon to water veg plants.
i kinda had a mind blown moment with the magnets, i went shopping and found some 3" ones to hold an off road light on the hood of my plow truck!!! just got em today and we might get snow tomorrow to try em out but i'm doubting the white stuff this time so might have to wait.
man your chip steak looked killer!!! i don't mind it thick cut ever, as long as it's tender and doesn't just pull out of the roll when ya bite it. there are plenty of places around here that make em thick cut. i like em the way you did with the rustic cut peppers and onions when it;s thick. and bro i actually prefer any cheese other than wiz.. just not a big fan of the wiz. tried it a couple months back and it was great at first then the flavor wore off quick with me, for cheesesteaks i like white american, provolone, pepper jack, cheddar, motz, swiss, pretty much any cheese,, even munster!!!
so bro your cheesecakes in the jar... did you use the sous vide guy or the simply recipe? or something different? combo of the two? i gotta know!! your saying better than NY.. i gotta try!!!!
so the other night i went over to my buddies garage and took some topanga cookies and your goodies..

it wasn't a cannagar, just a roll up with a bunch of sugar... man did i take some shit at first!! i opened the wrapper up and it was pink and smelled fruity... holy shit did my buddy go off.. he calls a mutual friend on speaker phone to even lay it on thick.. soon as i lit it up all the funny went away and all he had was compliments then!!! i even yelled out on the phone as a joke..i'm like Jay it looks like a dog pecker!!!! then handed it to my buddy and said here put your cocksucker on this!!! it was funny stuff man!!! but seriously it hit smooth and burned real slow. like a blunt but not like shit!! i'll use em for sure. the tips are real nice too, are those the purple rose brand?
again!!
I'll see your cheese and raise you a smoked gouda and gruyere mac and cheese!Piggybacking this update off what I posted in Mr. Luv's thread this morning regarding tracking data, what the plants are doing during that tracking, and why I run above normal warm temps
So this is the trend on the day starting low at lights on and peaking at 90 then triggering the exhaust to balance out the heat and RH into an optimal range for explosive growth rates
That dip in the red line is where the exhaust kicked in and you can see it leveled out the hi temp, took it back down into an ideal range and zapped RH like a bitch.
This is what a good exhaust should be able to do

The hi temp is used for the root zone. Warmish soils mean lots of vigor in the rhizosphere and that translates to exceptional growth.
I really don't care much about VPD or leaf temps here because if I ran the room by trying to set temps according to those numbers then the root zone will be too cool and that will result in slow uptake and slow growth.
Taking it up into the high 80s still leaves an excellent leaf temp able to transpire water at a rapid rate which again translates to rapid growth. I'm getting the best of both world here by going off root temps and air temps.
From there, the plants do all the talking letting me know what they want and like. They lead and I follow with adjustments and in this case, running the room above common temps prescribed for growing weed indoors.

Spectramax was set to full power today.
Stretchers were corralled together yesterday and giving me an idea of how high to set the trellis screen tomorrow.
High cotton is setting in then next comes the stack
Anybody doing anything special for their lady tomorrow?
I like to get a little cheesy and traditional some years and this one of those years.
Got an order in for a bouquet to be delivered and also picked this up since she's been on a little champagne kick here lately since New Years. Been getting her the bottles of the cheap stuff so figured she should indulge a bit on her special day

DAMN! You played the lobster card!
Have you ever had fried spinach? I wasn't sure about that one but once I ate it....MAN! It was freaking delicious!
He was on and posting just last night, what changed?I got schrooms in my garden, Hey we need to helpDFG get him back onto the site, seems he is "Locked out" due to a missing 2nd "Key" or code, where's Moe & staff? SSgrower
I'm just talking out of my ass here, but the 2fa comes in every 30 days or so. Maybe it was timed just right?He was on and posting just last night, what changed?
That could be, all i know is Ive never even been asked for 2fa, but i also never log out and it also never logs me out on its own.I'm just talking out of my ass here, but the 2fa comes in every 30 days or so. Maybe it was timed just right?
Man that is too dang funny about all that razzin! Yeah you better have a thick skin if you're gonna pull out the pink Blazey Susans for a sesh!!!
Yeah those are the Purple Rose tips they gave me. You should have both the large and smalls in there.
I actually did the steak in the sous vide first then finished it on the flat-top. It was pretty good but woulda been better with ribeye.
I'm not a fan of Wiz either. Tastes too processed like that aerosol cheese in a can.
I used queso but yeah I agree on all those cheeses. Deluxe American is what I use on smash burgers and it makes the burger IMO.
Lately I've also been into using gruyere. Man a grilled cheese sammy made with gruyere & gouda is awesome! I made one for my wife and she was like ok, this is what grown ups grilled cheese should be like.
Ya know I found another use for those magnets...Wrap it in foil and use it to tamp down the graham cracker crust in the cheesecake jars!!
So yeah SV cheesecake is super ez and the recipes are flexible AF...
This will make eight 4oz jars
Set your SV to 176
Two 8oz blocks of cream cheese
Three large eggs
2/3 cup of sugar but I use only 1/2 cup. May even go lower than that next time and when I do key lime pies
2/3 cup of buttermilk OR 2/3 cups of sour cream OR 2/3 cup of heavy whipping cream
2-3tsp of vanilla extract OR 2-3tsp of bourbon
Mix the cheese and sugar together until well blended then add the eggs one at a time until it's all mixed and smooth. Then slowly add in the buttermilk then finally the vanilla and blend it all well.
For the crust...
A pack of graham crackers put inside a ziplock baggie then crushed to tiny bits with a rolling pin. If the crackers don't have cinnamon already you can add some cinnamon to the mix.
Melt down a 1/4 stick of unsalted butter in the microwave
Add the cracker dust and butter to a mixing bowl and mix it until it's gotta wet sand like texture
To fill the jars move the cheese mix into a bowl or large measuring cup with a pouring spout.
Add a heaping spoonful of cracker mix to the jar and pack it down tight.
Next pour the cheese mix in up to the bottom of the threads on the jar leaving about a half inch of head space
This is the most important part of the recipe and you have to trust the physics involved here...
When you put the lid on the jar do not over tighten. You barely want it snugged up and sealed. They call it fingertip tight. You want air to escape the jar as it cooks and do not worry about water getting inside the jar.
If the lid is too tight the jar will pressurize and break so you spin the lid until it barely gets some resistance as it tightens.
When you put the jars in the bath they will bubble with air escaping but water will not get in.
Cook in the bath for 90 minutes then chill for at least a few hours before serving.
Serve it up to friends and family and be the cheesecake hero as they go nuts over it!
kitty purry?? like katy perry? ... oh boy...
that's a really cool diecast!!! did it come with that awesome case? or is that something you made?
man that sucks you don't get cardboard tickets anymore.. i didn't know that!! now that i think about it, it's been a few years now since i got tickets for concerts too..
just hit play on the DVR and getting into it now!!!!
just got done watching i am kevin harvick... i really enjoyed it, class act!! do you know at all, is it just a one off? or a series?
Bandit, should i completely submerge my jars with the holding rack? or just let em "bob" in the water and move around?
tuna breath?!?!?! hahaha well at least she's earning her keep!!!!!!
but yeah that SVG car look very detailed!! they've come a long way with them. i didn't realize it was a touched up race finished car, that makes it that much cooler!!!
i can't wait to get that indy set!!! i was just looking last week to see if it happen to have an early release but still says august yet!!
and thanks again for the cheesecake info... gonna try them in a day or so. probably gonna do like a banana foster type topping for them. i have to make sure i have new lids first. i know i have those jars from the mushroom making but all those lids have vents and inoculation ports in them!! haha might make for some trippy cakes!!!! hahaha
i might not get to see the 500 live either man, it's not that fun to listen to the scanner live at big track anyway so i'm not upset at all. like ya say, just gotta avoid tickers and the net!!!
hope your work goes smooth bro!! hook em!!!
Did you order your cars from Hendricks? I'm seeing a March 31st ship date on them!
That set will be the crown jewels of my collection for sure so yeah they get a fancy case.
I just realized something else about this 91 car. It's a #1 out of 1313 made! So I guess it was the first car off the line and I got it!
View attachment 45249
no, i ordered mine from fanatics.com
man #1.. first race there, first win for him, and first car... gotta add some kind of value to somebody!! i wonder how they come up with 1313.. not a thousand or 1300 but 1313..
i saw larson and briscoe are starting out near each other!!
