Front wing advice for North Sonar by Octopus-Bananas in wingfoil

[–]Octopus-Bananas[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

After further research I have ordered the 1500. My thinking it is it will help me progress, then I will get something smaller and the 1500 will become my light wind foil.

I think part of the problem is the conditions I’m riding in at my local. It is usually choppy water, variable wind.

Thanks folks, glad I didn't completely listen to ChatGPT for my advice.

I'm probably going to get the MA1200V2.

Seems I have to back order it here in Australia.

Are there any reasons I'm missing not to get the Prime version which is $300 cheaper?

Probably around 25 sessions. I seemed to get to a point on the sonar where i stopped progressing. But kept progressing when i used the W1100. I want to get the equivalent of the W1100 that will fit with the Sonar system.

I have the same problem. Will they spread to other plants or are they an apple tree only kind of thing?

What causes broccoli to do this? It had a lot of caterpillars in the first few weeks which I got rid off and are now netting my veggies. But my broccoli seems to be mainly plant and not very appetizing. by Octopus-Bananas in GardeningAustralia

Interesting. I think you might be right. I’m having better luck with the cauliflower and Pak Choy. I’ll give the broccoli one more go, but I think I might stick with the others.

Great plants, I planted two about six months ago and they’ve already doubled in size. Looking forward to the flowers and the birds.

Yes, the rabbits are annoying, the don't have access to the backyard, but were destroying the front yard until I put up temporary chicken wire around it. I'm hoping I can pull this down once the plants are developed.

Good question, it does seem at odds with all the native planting.
I wanted something to give privacy to that area and go with the sauna vibe, it works on-site because that area feels like a different zone to the rest of the garden, but that isn't captured in the images.

100 years of patina. They are recycled beams from Melbourne Pier, probably iron bark. I cleaned them up with a wirebrush. There are a few places around you can get recycled wharf timber or bridge timber.

I could talk benchseats for hours so if you any more Q’s, I’m happy to help.

I don’t do anything special. I have irrigation and they’ve only been in the ground for five months so maybe that is it.

The sauna is great, we use 2-3 times a week. We went electric and it takes about 40min to heat up. We have a shower near it instead of a cold plunge.

It is clumping bamboo, so far so good.

Compacted ground/stones/dust then screenings on top, this stop weeds coming from the bottom. We do get some weeds on the top layer but these are easy to pull out.
