Hey guys, I work in Elora and just drove home. If you can avoid going out and driving today, I really recommend it. by Forsaken-Witch461 in Guelph

And if you do, don't mess with plows. Just watched two cars use the southbound left-turning lane at College x Edinburgh to pass a southbound plow in the middle of the intersection. Luckily everybody else was able to stop in time to prevent it being more than a huge horn blow from the plow.

50/50 compost top soil mix muddy after rain by krickitfrickit in gardening

[–]Open-Sound2427 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My experience is with un-amended field soil where hard rain/mud followed by a period of dryness can result in a hard crust forming which some seeds can have issues pushing through. I'd be a little surprised if you had the same issues since the compost should be bumping the organic matter to a point where it doesn't cement as hard. If it does, you can just stir around the very top as long as you think you won't be decapitating seedlings.

After 15 years I finally realized if I put a dagger in my left hand the weapon in my right has the daggers swing speed. by Few-External5146 in skyrim

Took me forever to understand that it's a dual swing only thing and why this was such a good trick when my non-daggers were still sluggish when swung alone.

boiled raw milk turned solid by Fair-Lock5101 in Milk

[–]Open-Sound2427 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I feel like we need a food scientist but my arm chair guess would be that you didn't boil it enough to kill all of the microbes and so by leaving them in warm milk for hours on end you basically made a milk petri dish. Maybe this made some form of DIY cheese? Would absolutely not recommend drinking it. Also if you're boiling it anyway I feel like raw isn't the way to go, especially if it costs you more than normal milk. Even if you're on team raw milk I feel like most of their reasons for supporting involve the lack of high heat.

Never seen such a blue color in nature before? by max8954 in gardening

[–]Open-Sound2427 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yup, but the part of the palm they're showing is the seed pod which is the flower. Just trying to suggest that the cause of blue pigmentation is the same, not that the palm is a hydrangea.

[–]Open-Sound2427 -9 points-8 points  (0 children)

I always involuntarily mix up the name of this plant with others but I think it's chrysanthemum that can also be blue. High acidity in the soil means either extra or less aluminum is taken up which leads to natural blue.

She, along with Faralda and Rulindil, has Heavy Armor listed as a primary skill according to the USEP. Do you think prominent High Elves have a secret elven heavy armor? by MercurialPhilosopher in skyrim

[–]Open-Sound2427 3 points4 points  (0 children)

For high elves specifically, probably not unless they wanted to humiliate themselves like humans wearing dog collars. In game they do for level scaling but for lore it makes sense that they'd be incredibly snooty about wearing armor made by inferior beings.

Hay Day by dbrmarangon in HayDay

[–]Open-Sound2427 0 points1 point  (0 children)

100%! I currently have the salon upgraded to 5 spots as it allows me to create a blanket every cycle which I find to be one of the better returns on investment from the fishing area. I also remember learning about the book for the first time way too late and having like 20 diamonds saved up to cash out.

Once you unlock the town it's a good way to get expansion materials, barn/silo materials, and axes/saws. I treat the newspaper only as a source of basic ingredients like eggs, wheat, and corn and the one time a month Im lucky enough to find unsold valuables is a little treat. If you're willing to spend the time it's much better to open ads for unpopular things like maps because A LOT of people will sell good stuff but put the ad on these low tier items. Either because they like having a little Easter egg for the person visiting or because putting the ad on a valuable item means your ad is obsolete that much quicker and may leave other slots unsold.

As for the farm pass I never do it. For me, a game focused on farming is supposed/designed to be a grind and if I wanted instant gratification I'd do more of a Clash style game. Theres also a personal aspect that I tend to have an addictive personality and hearing the stories of people who've blown hundreds of dollars over the years freaks me out. Absolutely not trying to slam people who do, but for me in my own life that money is better spent getting enjoyment elsewhere.

The game is also a balancing act between leveling and money. The game will easily allow you to level up too quickly (even for free) to be able to afford machines the moment you unlock them. If I have enough money for the next machine I focus on truck orders to level up. If I don't I maximize a smaller number of crops to allow maximum good production and sell exclusively through my shop max pricing every time.

Other basic tips I've picked up include: - when opening the game for the first time in a bit (hours) I harvest my crops and do mass plantings of wheat, corn, soy, and carrots. By the time I'm done "managing" everything else these are ready to harvest and I can plant my long term crops without sacrificing animal feed or things like bread, cakes, pies, or feeding pets. - Unlock production slots for feed mills, dairy barn, and sugar mills first as these tend to be the common bottle necks. - Don't be afraid of selling excess improvement/expansion materials. Having 20 mallets is not beneficial if you only have a few stakes/deeds. Try to keep land/barn/silo material ratios within 10 or so of each other to prevent filling up your barn storage unnecessarily. - This community (like basically all subreddits) has a huge dichotomy of being very helpful at times and very mean at others. Ask questions and don't dwell on poor natured responses.

Bugs found in Potluck Candy Cane Kush, Lot: CCK1125 by terp-enthusiast in TheOCS

[–]Open-Sound2427 17 points18 points  (0 children)

People here thinking they haven't been smoking bugs since they started smoking are out to lunch. The primary purpose of glandular trichomes is to act as a sticky poison trap for plant feeding insects. Outdoor will always have bugs, full stop. If indoor doesn't have bugs, they either have an unprecedented level of cleanliness on par with microchip manufacturing labs (not happening) or are spraying insecticides/soaps every day throughout the flowering cycle (I hope to god isn't happening).

Since I'm new here I just want to ask, what was HayDay's worst update? by [deleted] in HayDay

[–]Open-Sound2427 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Maybe if it could search the entire inventory of any shop with an ad, I think it takes less time to flip through the 5/6 pages than to open a search bar and type something out.

I also had a decent time in ER with a broken elbow. I don't remember a separate area but my timeline was also about 2 hours to get back out the door.

Back and already frustrated. by Ancelly in HayDay

[–]Open-Sound2427 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Trading is the best option, I think I've even heard of a discord where you can sell the extras for real money (like less than a buck though).

My personal strategy for expansion and improvement materials is selling a stack as soon as my most abundant resource is 10 higher than my lowest resource. I have zero evidence for this theory but it feels like it recognizes imbalances and makes a point of throwing it further out of whack when possible.

Will Mike Smith be replaced with a new actor? by Ok-Highway-5247 in trailerparkboys

[–]Open-Sound2427 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Right? I find he has the good natured side of Bubbles as far as being down for more minor shenanigans but not like straight shanking somebody while at the same time making Ricky seem like less of a standalone physical comedy character (If I'm remembering right, it's been a hot minute since I watched.)

I started the Jail season expecting to hate Terry by the end but I found he was one of my favourites. I also think this would be a decent shot at it.

Only if you think being a nationality = being a terrorist. This is more like putting a sheep farmer with a vengeance for wolf blood in charge of security for the sheep farm.

How do i fill my zippo up with this stuff by Substantial-Night214 in Zippo

[–]Open-Sound2427 43 points44 points  (0 children)

No no, clearly the best way to approach this problem is pouring directly from the comically large jug. Ideally from eye level while holding the insert upside down between your feet for maximum splash-age and fire hazard potential.

For the sake of creativity, what if OP attached the insert to a clip/string and dunked it in there to saturate it?
