That is what I did with my love lettuce Aunt Bernice. She just looks like a big round ball now!!

I'll be over soon.... I just have to see your lettuce ball.....Aunt Bernice!

 

[OldMedMan]

gee willakers! I figured you had one of those groin in the back room somewereyou got at least half of all the strains Ive never heard of goin on there lol. never grew either of these or smoked them so cant even say if its worth the time, but sure saw some pretty pictures. let you know in august or so

He! He! never even heard of them!

I'm waiting for August!

 

[OldMedMan]

Let me know if I missed answering you.

Spent most of the day hooking up Jo's Mothers Day Present, an Xbox 360 and all the bells and whistles, flat on my back. Came with very good instructions on how to hook it up and getting it to work.

But no instructions on how to play it. We have to find a 10 year old somewhere to teach us how to use the damn thing!

Hey OMM, I figured this might be the best place to ask since you have almost five thousand likes on your journal, there are some people reading it and some people writing good enough stuff to be liked Speaking of which, when's the next installment of your story

You know that pH chart that is often referenced? (I think I saw it more than once in this journal) Can you or someone else here explain why potassium is absorbed up to pH9 in soil and only up to pH6 in hydro?

Hope you don't mind asking here... I mean "ear" lol

Soil acts as a natural "PH buffer" and allows the nutes to be asorbed at a higher PH than in hydro.

On a related note, many nutes can be provided in a "chelated" form. This involves taking some molecule that can easily be absorbed by the plant at wide PH ranges (the "chelate") and using it to "encapsulate" the nute molecule.

So, the chelate gets absorbed by the plant, then "dissolves" and releases the nute molecule which allows the nute to be absorbed at a much wider range than is shown on the charts.

Well, ear we go.......read what folks are saying to you........then address their remarks. That is what is important to them. Be truthful with what you say back. They're comments show you what to say most of the time. Don't ever ignore what's important to them.


Your question is a great example!

So, I will answer you truthfully....I have no figging idea! I've never done hydro, so it's out of my knowledge base. However, many people on here have that experience so let's ask them.

Hey Mr. Krip, Xlr8. OG13, Cronichempdog and all you other Hydro Folks. We need help!!!

Let's see what happens!

 

[OldMedMan]

There you go SurfBuddy! It works!! Thanks Mr. Krip.....Your the best!

 

[SurfBuddy]

Great! Thanks Mr. Krip! I believe BPN has chelated forms of N, but not sure about P and K, though I imagine it does... Re-looking at BPN's charts on their website, it shows great absorption of all nutes at pH7, so I'll worry less and just let the girls drink up!

Awesome quick reply +reps

Thanks OMM for letting me bust into your journal
Aloha

No Thanks Needed....Your always welcome. Bravo for Mr. Krip!

Hey OMM,

Sorry I haven't been around much. Preparing for the harvest on Tuesday and then just started my 3rd grow yesterday. Planted all the baby clones

No problem A1

I've been following your grows and you are one busy man.

Besides I like being a "Peeping Tom".

 

[Closet Farmer]

Hey Buddy. Jo and I are already planing where we are going and what you will see. The best places on the island. We have been waiting for years for someone to come, now we have a reason to clean up the house!

I'll try to have a few plants ready to Top and FIM.

I hope I answered all your PMs.....I got confused!

Yeah, this is exciting! You answered all my PM's! I am really looking forward to the visit. I think this is going to be a trip my family and I will remember for a long time. And to meet You, Jo and your friends is the topping on the cake. Definately will be getting High in HI!!
Do you know anything about the place I am staying? Is it a nice resort? I don't want to name the name publicly out of fear. Maybe I am too paranoid. LOL!
Waaa Hoooooooooo!!!

That part of Waikiki has been either been up graded or is new. It's easy to see the sites of Waikiki on foot. I'm sure your wife will be happy walking around there and SHOPPING! Bring Money! Will you have a car? Believe me a week will be too short!

 

[OldMedMan]

Did a quick dry sample of the Vintage. Houston we have Couchlock!

A car will cost me about 60 dollars a day when you add the resort valet fees. I am not renting a car yet. I might just do the taxi or call you..LOL!... When I get there if I need a car I can always rent one on the spot. How many taxi rides could I get for $60 in HI. I would think at least 2 round trips a day. Maybe I am wrong.

Yes, I will bring money!! Shopping...Aargh!!! Of course my wife loves shopping. She is a pro.

 

[MSquared]

Congrats on the harvest OMM! So when is the last time you had Vintage? can't remember if you had in the the last run or not.
Great growing Buddy and the rest of them seem to be coming along nicely.

If your coming in the afternoon it's probably best if you and your family take a walk around Waikiki. It's a Trip in it's self. It's kind like the hippie days mixed with small people purposely hurrying to who knows where and there are the tourist from all over the world......about 11 pm the hookers come out. Of course Waikiki Beach is right there in front of you too.

From then on, I pick you up around 1 pm. The will be one day a bit earlier....I have to check that.

Never tested her before. I did a quick dry tonight and she is going to be good.

Hey Thanks MS Yep, right now I'm giving them lots of love!
This is the best looking girls I've had for a while.

Sounds Great!! I cannot wait!! We are definately looking forward to this!!

Would you recomend night vision binoculars or regular to view the Hookers at night from my resort? There is no way my wife will let me leave the room at that time?!! LOL!!
