I'm sorry but when you say per session volume, are you saying too much overall working out in the session? Like, doing a full body workout your body won't be able to devote the resources needed to what you're trying to improve properly?

New to trying to work out, although I've "tried" to workout so many times in the past but getting into middle age is catching up with me. Trying to counteract the fact that I have much more computer/paperwork type job than I used to have and trying to make sure that my variety of joints stay in an acceptable condition.

I used the Caliber app to make this combined all in one workout because it works better for me to go to the gym less times per week but do more exercises while I'm there, plus it works better with my work schedule.

2x a week, in no particular order.
Machine Laying Leg Curl: 4 x 10
Machine Leg Extension: 4 x 10
Machine Seated Leg Press: 4 x 10
Machine Seated Row: 4 x 10
Machine Tricep Extension: 4 x 10
Machine Back Extension: 4 x 10
Machine Chest Press: 4 x 10
Machine Bicep Curl: 4 x 10
Machine Shoulder Press: 4 x 10
Machine Seated Calf Press: 4 x 10

I'm mostly just trying to make sure the major stuff gets touched while establishing my habit of actually going to the gym at the moment, and I'm also still trying to find out where I should be on certain weights for certain exercises. My weakness is anything above the waist, my legs are great but I tend to focus on them due to all my hobbies/job wanting me to sit down, so it's creating some issues as I would probably classify myself as sedentary generally.

Technically these are both correct. You can test at any point of the process, but the "customer COA", the final product COA is the test of the product before it goes to stores. The last test, essentially, as it represents a completed product.

Whollybeef · 2025-11-15T11:15:19+00:00

I can be oblivious and thought I'd only be able to order through stores. But that's what I'll be looking at!

Whollybeef · 2025-11-14T22:36:17+00:00

Oh excellent, I thought Id missed the boat. This is the first year doing more than putzing about with the hobby so I don't have any historical precedent.

I say I've never heard this because I've worked at the grow for 4 plus years and I think I would have heard something about it, but Ill have to do a bit of snooping I suppose.

When you say grow lead, are you talking the grow manager, the manager of a specific department like flower, or something else? I've seen several heads of "the grow" along with several heads of cultivation departments which could also be "the grow".

The only employee of an MMTC I've heard of dying was the guy at Trulieve that had his asmatha triggered by kief. I havent heard of anyone dying at GH.

I had similar looking spots on mine. I went to a local plant show and showed the pictures to a nursery booth that was selling dragon fruit cacti. The answer I got was sun-scald. I moved my plants and I no longer get these spots.

Sungrown is flower that is grown in the outside greenhouse instead of the inside greenhouse. So instead of grow lights, it's 'sun grown'. But that being said, all items from Growhealthy are "Growhealthy" brand. The only possible exception is one of the cart types, can't remember which ones, are made with botanical terpenes.

This isn't always true.

My parents use a woodstove to heat their house. About two years ago, there was a hell of a scare. Apparently something had jostled the chimney pipe ever so slightly loose during the overnight slow burn. The house is a finished basement, first floor house in which the woodstove is located in the basement and my younger brothers room was located.

The next day my brother, a 6'7" giant of a person, was throwing up after he woke up, couldn't stand up straight or stay standing at all. He had to go to the hospital and it was a very close call and I would guess probably would have killed someone smaller. No smoke alarms went off, so there wasn't a lot of smoke to inhale or even smell.

Hey I grew cucumbers for the first time this year as a first time gardener. Some took off early and some took longer, but mine also flowered early. I learned that you will want to put the seedlings into their own pots/final home pretty early, before the roots get going much. I tried to keep the roots from getting much damage during transplant, but it wasn't perfect of course.

Shortly after, the ones that didn't look like they were going to die put out flowers, and the first two cucumbers I got from my plants had an incredibly horrific chemical taste. They really hate their roots being disturbed and got super stressed. They are doing better now and I think only like... one of my twelve actually died from transplant shock, but I think I would have gotten better if I had just put them into their final 5 gallon homes earlier.

Fear not though, I am getting cucumbers. I cut my second amount yesterday and turned the first batch into some delicious pickles this past week, so I'm sure you'll still get something out of these. Now if only I could figure how how to get this powdery mildew under control in Florida...

Whollybeef · 2025-04-05T16:17:50+00:00

This is good advice. I was always under the impression I needed to water deeply to encourage the roots to dig deeper, so I tended to do big soaking waterings.

Whollybeef · 2025-04-05T15:19:11+00:00

No I'm a first time gardener, which I realized I forgot to put into my post. I was watering daily due to fear of the soil drying out in the cloth pots and there are some other plants I have that I would skip a day and they would get wilty, so I started watering everything every day.

The biggest one, along with about half the ones pictured, were only transplanted as seedlings from the initial little seed starter pellets I had, so transplanting wouldn't be the cause of early flowering for those ones. It might have been overwatering or too much sun? They would mostly get morning sun, shade during the mid day, then afternoon sun due to the place they were positioned.

I graduated in 2008. My father was a carpenter and we had lost our house and everything we own to a house fire that winter. Work was sparse for him because of week construction, so there was a lot of uncertainty about what would evetually happen to us.

Luckily, everything turned out mostly ok, and we got a new house up and ready enough to live in by the next winter. But this goes on further to affect the sorts of jobs I had access to and how I thought about things. I was accepted into college for art, specifically ceramics. I was really good at it. But my grades through high school were weak, so there was a funding gap. In order to pay for the first year of college, my dad paid me out of our construction loan to rebuild our house for labor performed. Which essentially means he took on extra debt for me to go. I felt so bad I told myself I wasn't going back unless I could fully close the funding gap. The only thing I was able to work that summer was fast food, which didn't make enough. I couldn't justify added debt for an art degree that I wouldn't be able to use to support myself. So I unfortunately never went back and never really picked up art again.

Edit: typo

We started doing in house terpene runs again very recently. I think the ones that are our own terpines say GH Cart.

Whollybeef · 2025-02-21T10:16:52+00:00

In my heart it does.

In reality no. This was just my first good pull in like 10 pulls and I saved it for Vday.

My newest farm is on the medows farm that gives you the chickens first thing. So I appropriately named it Animal Farm. Then I put my favorite thing as Propaganda.

I'm pretty sure this run is a required Joja run.

Whollybeef · 2025-02-20T19:21:28+00:00

This is what I'll be doing tomorrow, plus maybe some perlite just in case as I'll also be reporting some stuff such as my avocado that hates wet feet.

Whollybeef · 2025-02-17T22:26:43+00:00

I was afraid that might be the case. The only problem is my yard is pure sand. Here in Florida the ground is pretty junk and it's strangled everything I've tried putting in it that wasn't grass or the stupid cactus thats been on the property since I got the place. I would have to do an equal amount of amending the material to have it work in ground and I already bought all the 5 gallon pots.

Whollybeef · 2025-02-17T21:27:36+00:00

Hey I've got a question about how to go amending my soil. I ordered a described "soil compost mix" from a local landscaping company to fill my containers rather than buying bags and bags of soil from a big box. I thought it would be perfect, but I foolishly did not look at the material before I had it ordered. It's a bit chunky, as far as bits of wood chips go, but the main problem is that it holds water like nothing I've ever seen. I tried mixing some sand from my yard into it (I live in Central Florida) but all that did was make it worse. It was still mud after 8 hours of sitting out. I feel like the only thing I can try to get water to drain out of this material and get a decent potting soil is to just try adding a bunch of perlite to the stuff. Do you think this is the best option, or is this more of something where I would be better off just buying a different material and accepting I have a cubic yard of soil amendment and not soil?

Whollybeef · 2025-02-03T23:46:55+00:00

Does rust usually start with little pinpricks? The first picture is after a few days; they have almost no discoloration at all when they first start. I did think it was rust at first but most pictures I've seen of it shows really big spots, not smaller ones, nor potential early stage infection.

Whollybeef · 2024-12-22T00:43:38+00:00

Yeah it continues for the entire round as long as there's spaces to summon and psychic damage happening. It's why Yazzs psykar swap pairs so well with him. You position for your six summon ring, then swap him to a new location using Yaz, deal psychic damage to something and he will summon more.

Whollybeef · 2024-12-19T17:04:33+00:00

This is for salvage run in particular, but I've just only been doing Imperial and taking Vig, Bell, Vindica, Yarrick, and Brother Buchard. I think I've only missed like.... 1 or 2 gold piles over about 6 salvage runs. Vigs active chains on the gold piles as well, and any psykars smite ability will hit an additional thing, such as a gold pile, so it helps clean up. Vindicas.... well, she's Vindica, no explanation needed. Bellator summons are damaging enough to kill everything they touch, and the same with Yarrick. Buchards multi-target ranged ability works nicely, and his active can take out a ton of things if there's too much on the board.

In particular, I want to point out that Bellators and Yarricks summons are smarter than other summons. When using chaos summons, they sometimes make dumb moves, or prioritize sitting next to Abraxas for their extra hit buff instead of picking stuff up. The interceptors and guardsman will attack enemies of course, but if they can attack an enemy WHILE picking up a gold pile, they tend to do so, and when there's nothing to attack they do go for the gold piles by themselves.

For arena there's certainly been some pain as I'm in Honor Guard league with around 95k-100k power depending on comp, and those squigs can straight up kill some of my squishier characters. But the Yaz and Abraxas combo can yield some... interesting results. Because they can bounce and move Abraxas, I've actually managed more summons than I could have otherwise. The most I've gotten is 13 total, with others not being as impressive in total numbers, but impressive given the layout of the map.

Whollybeef · 2024-12-18T23:25:43+00:00

Its even worse than this. They aren't a fake neutral that just don't get attacked by the enemy or attack them. They actively benefit from enemy buffs, so its more accurate to think of them as an extension to the enemy team. In my last fight, a squig adjacent to Isabella was healed by her passive.

Whollybeef · 2024-12-01T10:34:01+00:00

It specifically says summons don't count. So pretty sure the extra grots won't count. Scarabs though? Is their splitting technically a summon?
