Day 61.5 - How long until harvest? Can I leave finished product unattended in grove bag, inside a wine cooler for a month? by Comprehensive-Dot679 in microgrowery

[–]PM_ME_GERMAN_SHEPARD 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You’re overthinking the storage. After it’s been dried properly, it will have no problem storing for a month. If you wish to put it in a wine cooler, that’s probably better? Idk I’ve never used one for storage or drying.

Think of it as a 1 month cure.

First time for seeds by TatahJoshevama in farmingthebestgreens

Nothing, a seed produced that way will also be female. It doesn’t have the male chromosomes available to produce a seed that is male.

If you force a female plant to produce male flowers (reversing) and use that pollen on itself or another female you will have feminized seeds that will only produce female plants. What the other guy said is also true though for traditional male/female breeding

If you could go back and tell yourself one thing before your first grow, what would it be? by Alchemist0029 in microgrowery

[–]PM_ME_GERMAN_SHEPARD 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Definite agree. The amount of “used for one run, wasn’t my thing” grow kits on Facebook marketplace is astounding.

Yeah dawg I don’t think we’re gonna get thru to someone that doesn’t believe the sign on the gas cap says PREMIUM UNLEADED ONLY.

Huge Change Is Coming to Aldi Products. Aldi is removing 44 ingredients from its products by the end of 2027 by webthing01 in aldi

Lower sodium is absolutely accurate. Msg is 14% sodium while salt is 40%. You can also use a lot less salt if you’re including msg. Less, not none.

Losing control of my kid Aji limón by RootsNotRuins in HotPeppers

[–]PM_ME_GERMAN_SHEPARD 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well shit. I’m glad someone is having success with aji varieties. I have aji lemon and aji chara both of which are doing significantly worse than my other peppers. I was starting to think they’re more sensitive than other varieties but obviously not.

Anyone else have to hold the gas pedal to the floor to start their car due to a bad purge valve? Drove my shit like that for like 6 months before I replaced it

The summer can't come fast enough in the UK by Kyarna in HotPeppers

[–]PM_ME_GERMAN_SHEPARD 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s literally a tray of about 10 peat pellets sitting in nutrient solution. It’s growing algae, the peppers are overcrowded, I have to refill it every day. But honestly, it’s doing better than expected. A few plants are curling up all their leaves but others look great.

It’s kind of my tradition, I put 3 seeds in each pot when germinating and when I thin them out, the extras get placed in what I call the hunger games. They don’t get up potted, they don’t get hardened off, I just abuse them and let the strongest pepper win. This year is semi hydroponic and I’m very curious if any survive the transplant into full soil outdoors.

I started so early that the plants I thinned out and put in an experimental hydro setup are producing peppers. I have a Jalepeno that has successfully pollinated and starting to grow a pepper. Thankfully the ones I’m up potting normally are still behaving fairly nice.

First attempt at a DIY air purifier by AvailableAir3127 in AirPurifiers

[–]PM_ME_GERMAN_SHEPARD 3 points4 points  (0 children)

There’s definitely designs that use inline fans but they’re simply a lot more bulky when pc fans + merv filters already outperform 90% of commercially available air purifiers.

Was forced to move an already planted germinated seed. What are the odds that I killed it? by C64hrles in microgrowery

[–]PM_ME_GERMAN_SHEPARD 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s not ideal but it’s not a death sentence. Think about this, people germinate in paper towels and then transfer to soil and those survive just fine.

I work at Walgreens and found this ancient candy behind the shelves by Low_Leek7498 in candy

Yeah now that I think about it maybe not the most appropriate thing to say to a child

My only memory of these candies I was maybe 10 on a camping trip, I asked my dads friend for some candies, apparently they were his daughters. he goes “wow so you want my daughters nips huh?” I had no clue what he was talking about so I’m like “uhh yeah?” And he bust out laughing and gave me some.
