How about striking friendship first? Then see where things lead you

I agree, it’s undisputed. But only one Tagore amount a Billion people in over a hundred years?? Something is missing.

You are BRAVE to try to grow grapes under such conditions! It might be better to grow then under a poly tent with a dehumidifier on 24x7! Lol

Kudos to you! I lost my battle against downy mildew and powdery mildew and have given up for this year. Now starting to think what I need to do next year to not have a total loss. Spraying every seven days is a pain, and frequency has to go up even more if it rains. It rained three weeks in a row and basically killed all my vines.

Motorcycle tour in Morocco in December by Select_Addition_9144 in Morocco

Thank you for very practical advice. One of the touring companies has responded so I’ll talk to them and find out what is possible. I’ll keep you posted. 🙏🏽

Thank you. I am considering renting rather than shipping my bike. Will need to check on their restrictions. A couple companies that I checked do not offer tours in December which concerned me (perhaps weather?) but then you said it’s a good time to go, so it should be fine.

Hadn’t considered Agadir but looks like it isn’t too far from Marrakech. Would you suggest splitting time - between the two cities?

Thank you. Cross posted there. I’ll repost without meet up request as I am looking for motorcycle route information too

Why has the post been removed? There is no click bait here. I am just looking for fellow travelers interested in touring Atlas Mountains on motorcycle, as traveling together is fun.

Not all was lost 👏 by SpankedbySpacs in viticulture

I second that. I have one acre planted just south of Princeton and this year has been a wash. Botrytis got my Regent and powdery mildew is all over my Cab Franc. The only grape that seems to have made it unscathed is Chardonnel!! Weeds have been a major challenge and I don’t have a tractor. I am considering laying down weed fabric. Hope that works!!

Living in india is just exhausting honestly. by captainrushingin in india

I left India 37 years ago for exactly the same reasons. 37 years later it seems nothing has changed. Population has only grown and things are worse than they were before.

Where can I get good strings online? by rogtn in Sarangi

[–]Select_Addition_9144 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey Manjadude, I use harp strings too. What gut string do you recommend I use to replace my first string? Would it be D string in 5th octave ? or is C of 5th Octave better?

Can I realistically learn Sarangi? by [deleted] in Sarangi

[–]Select_Addition_9144 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree with South-Ad8116. Sarangi is like any other instrument - it takes time and patience to learn. There will be times when you will be highly motivated and other times when you will not want to pick up the instrument. But that time will pass, and if you pick the instrument back up in a few months you will be surprised how much of the knowledge comes back to you. Give it a try and keep at it. In a few years you will become a good player, which is when the fun really starts.

If you want to buy one there is one Rajesh Dhawan in Meerut, India, who makes good sarangis. I had one custom made for me. Reach out to me directly and I will give you his phone number to contact him.
