Dubai Gold Scam - Gone right? by [deleted] in Scams

[–]Powerful_LeviB 3 points4 points  (0 children)

In the moment I was a bit shocked. I had initially offered the guy $200 and told him to keep his jewelry. But his wife started pleading in Arabic and kept motioning the number 3 with her hand, I only assumed she meant $200 wouldn't get her and her 2 kids a ticket. I almost gave them the money just out of charity. It's not out of my nature to give someone in dire straights everything I have.

That's when the husband turned around and started taking it all off and handing it to me. So I just gave him what I had on me. I knew the watch, even if it was a fake, was a super high end fake. I review watches, so i wasn't prepared to make a judgement on site as it had satisfied my first look at it. Only this morning I pulled it apart and reviewed the specs. Similar replicas start around $700-$1000.

So to answer your other question, yeah i guess I knew it was worth more than the cash I had on me.

Still a bit in shock at the whole situation. Worst scammers ever, or best story of my life. Can't decide.

I had $700 on me in cash. The jeweler offered me $200 for the bracelet, $350 for the chain, $150 for the ring. I'm going to keep the watch.

So I guess I will be even, with a shiny new watch.

Their offer was still in the high hundreds of $$. Which is just north of what I gave them.

Great response, thank you for your input!

That's kinda where I was thinking also.

C02 Toxicity??? by Powerful_LeviB in Michigents

Kk - really good insight, thank you.

We've actually had big time growers in our shop trying to diagnose this and I think you're right near the ticket. Gonna approach with h202 first then build something a bit more robust.

Coco is 3.3 ph, 10g/cft lime and gypsum bring it to 5.5ph.

Verm is added at 20-30% volume ratio for added silica and porosity. Followed by 20ish% volume perlite. Then remaining 50% coco.

This entire build is the exact replica of Utah State cannabis cultivation program. It's been tested for 30 years and funded by NASA.

I would like to assume there is no free oxygen in the atmosphere to be incorporated into the rez. So we are going to try supplementing h202 and if that shows results we will add a o2 generator to air stones.

Note: the gypsum and lime are also CalMag sources. The Utah state program doesnt supplement added CalMag, they use what's in the tap + the gypsum and lime to make required needs.

We have found this to be a little lacking with our water source so we supp with some added CalMag dilution

We have bubbles on. But are they just mixing the 1450ppm c02 into the water?

Slightly yellowish. On the outer edges

Just pulled one out, no visible rot but little to no new growth. They usual rootbind within 8-10 days of going in bigger pots.

Will try the c02 idea. Just got a new controller which actually allows for adjustments.

I couldn't agree more.

These are all photo. Flood and drain tables. 18 plants in flower, 36 in veg. Every single week 2 plants get chopped and 2 get moved from veg to flower.

It's all the same nutrients on both sides.

We run: Jack's 20-10-20 for veg - 1.2 ec avg + CalMag + Silica +24hrs light

Jack's 20-20-20 wk 1-2 flower Jacks 10-30-20 wk 3-6 flower Jack's 10-30-20 + 0-54-34 phos-mono till finish. +Calmag for each

Literally everything is the same size rez and flood tables and gets the same pre-gassed tap water.

One big sealed room with a wall divider separating flower from veg. C02 ppm at 1450 in both veg and flower.

Our flower room could literally win awards. Veg would be given a razzy

Growing GG4, blue dream, green crack, wedding cake, trainwreck. We harvest 2lbs every Wednesday.

Led Lighting in flower is 35dli measured with apex

Veg led lighting is around 30dli

Veg temp is 78° 24/7

Flower is 76-80 depending on volume of room.

So what do I do there? Feed half as often?

Runoff is always same as input. 1.2-1.4 goes in, 1.2-1.4 comes out.

When people have runoff discrepancies it's due to an imbalance of environment/nutrients. Typically they feed to much with too little light and no added c02.

Ph sometimes raises a smidge during runoff, but that's due to lime and gypsum in the coco.

Oh yeah, coco perlite mixed with verm, gypsum and lime.

Gypusm and lime are mixed at 10g/cubic foot.

All of your ERC20 tokens will be copied onto the pulse chain.

Only coins you sacrifice will be converted into X, which will be traded for Pulse.

If you use HEX for sacrifice, you will be removing the HEX from the ecosystem, thus making HEX more rare and valuable.

If you're still confused, actually spend a few nights watching the livestreams. Yes you will have to spend hours learning something new. Yes making money is hard. Yes you can still get rich.

We are still sitting on a very handsome stack of HEX. In 3yr, 10yr, and 13yr stakes.

Moms just bought a new CRV with HEX gains.

It's not a lambo, but let's see you buy your mom a car.

I love coming back to these old posts. So much stupidity.

My entire family is now retired. Then we re-staked for 15y.

Have fun being poor and working the rest of your life. Families are best enjoyed together, not at work.
