Well, today was my last official day at my job, a place I worked for the past 13 years, I left early and spent the day working for myself. Felt pretty amazing.

Having a couple beers to celebrate tonight with some good tunes. Here is to 13 years in the trenches, and many more as my own boss with my own business.🍻

Now playing

Congratulations on your new beginning!

There goes the easy pay check...Now there's no weekends, vacations, stat holidays, sick days & pay days aren't nearly as much fun. I won't get into your employees fking with your plans for a day off. Congratulations on biting the bullet and taking the jump its not easy on your own but being your own boss is awesome. Good Luck !

When a plant from your last crop was so runty that you forget about it and it lurks in the corner of your current grow..

I must say I like the way this last crop of spiked punch is burning. Very enjoyable smoke. Flavorful, and burns like a cigarette.
I was reading a while back you talking about a silica additive you were using. I use the GH flora trio in promix, with t5's is there a product you could recommend to help my veg growing. I'm not having any issues per say but if it's something I could use to help strengthen and build bigger badder...then why not.
I don't retain very long ( a med problem ) so excuse my ignorance after reading and smoking and.....whooooosh.....WTF was that?

Yeah I use both calcium silicate and potassium silicate. The added silica certainly seems to help make stronger branches.

I was looking at Armor Si on my next nute order but they have Pro Silicate a cheaper version and ah ...well...I'm cheap, is one better than the other? or is it just marketing whoop-law that makes GH more expensive?

Hallelujah!!! I've turned beer Into water with no leaks.
Took almost a 24 of hazy pale ale to get this project done, but we did it! And the Mastercraft pump is not leaking.
I can now move the family back in... lol.

Marketing whoop. But some is more concentrated than others... I use this stuff, pure and pours thick like glue. A $12 bottle lasts me a couple years.

Is that filter supposed to be black? If so how do you know when it needs replacing?

No, I'll be changing that promptly. When I disconnected the pump some water backflooded the lines and stirred up sediment in my cisterns. Happens every time I change the pump out, it costs me a sacrificial filter. I should really have a 3rd canister on here too.
