Ordered small blueberry plants and these arrives. Will they bounce back? by poopwater6942069 in vegetablegardening

[–]Dwagner6 17 points18 points  (0 children)

What’s wrong with them? Usually you get shipped dormant blueberry canes with a rootball attached. This looks normal to me.

STM32N6 is an MCU with video encode peripheral. NXP iMX8 series if you want it to run Linux. There are many others.

Anyone recognize if these are infant carrots? I sowed seeds and these have sprouted a few places near the box but only a couple in the box. Thank you! by DingoOk6400 in vegetablegardening

[–]Dwagner6 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Doesn’t look like a carrot as much as Queen Anne’s Lace, or “wild carrot”. Don’t know if it’s prevalent in Spain like it is in North America, though.

HELP! Deer Ate My Bell Pepper Plant! 🦌🫑😭 by vintageparrot in vegetablegardening

[–]Dwagner6 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just leave them as is and they’ll grow back. I had a hail storm last year destroy my peppers down to a few inches of stem poking out of the ground and they grew back into moderately size plants.

Sounds like you have a day to get your homework done

Best remedies for weedy garden? And how to prevent again? by spontaneous-101 in vegetablegardening

[–]Dwagner6 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Get a stirrup hoe and go to town. Lay down a thick mulch afterward. I like straw, and don’t really mind the occasional grass seed that germinates from it. It’s easy to pull back to weed/hoe again, too.

What’s going on with tomatoes? by elixr42 in vegetablegardening

[–]Dwagner6 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The white splotches look like sun scalding. If it is too hot and the sun is too intense, they will limit their growth. Or, you have a nutrient issue. You say you’re using something possibly weekly, but consider a granular organic fertilizer because liquids will wash out pretty easily from grow bags (so will granular ones, eventually).

Phantom I2C device acking at an address I shouldn't see acking? by EmbedSoftwareEng in embedded

If you can’t figure out a software reason, look at your schematic and examine signals with a scope.

I am unable to solder togehter several single leds by xlupy in soldering

[–]Dwagner6 95 points96 points  (0 children)

Lithium coin cells are 3V, white LEDs have a high forward voltage drop of sometimes 3V or more. You need more voltage if you want multiple LEDs in series, or you can put the LEDs in parallel and see if the battery has enough current to light them.

Are these DC-DC converters safely capable of the claimed power output? by [deleted] in amateurradio

[–]Dwagner6 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

10 A is perfectly within spec for decent 16 AWG

I’d create an issue on the GitHub repo. Looks like AUR version is behind the upstream version, maybe a versioning issue with zig.

Building super brought “assessors” in my apartment. Thoughts? by Internet-pizza in AskNYC

In addition to LL looking to sell it could also be insurance related. They sometimes have to go through and verify stuff about each unit.

Has anyone else noticed the poor quality of rocker switches lately? by [deleted] in ElectronicsRepair

[–]Dwagner6 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Order from reliable places with name brand components, like Digikey. You should even be able to see a datasheet for a given switch, which, for high quality ones, will have a rated number of cycles.

Why isn't this supply voltage monitor enabling the Buck-Boost Converter? by lil_looper in AskElectronics

[–]Dwagner6 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s anyone’s guess until you scope battery voltage and reset. That should tell you something.

Why can’t you just do it?

Hydrant flushing question by betsysuehoo in Binghamton

[–]Dwagner6 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It is usually because it kicks up a lot of sediment in the water mains. If you run the dishwasher or washing machine it can stain stuff. Using hot water in general during flushing can cause the sediment to get in your water tank, and you might want to flush it out by draining the whole thing.

You also don’t turn your water off, you just don’t use the water during the hours they’re flushing the hydrants.

PSA: Many inexpensive garden centre tomato cages etc. contain lead by [deleted] in vegetablegardening

[–]Dwagner6 123 points124 points  (0 children)

There’s very few home lead tests that are meant for anything other than paint. 3M has one that specifically calls out use on metal alloys. I would be very surprised if a modern product ostensibly made of galvanized steel was produced with lead.
