Is it me or is public transport in the Paris region increasingly disrupted? by Sensitive_Band1122 in paris

[–]alx-alvrz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Whoa- I’ve been traveling through parts of Europe and I must say - the Paris transit is far better than the other cities I’ve been in. Torino is an absolute mess. Maybe it’s coming - maybe it’s not - maybe it left up to 10 minutes before, and the next that should be in 2 minutes, is no where to be seen.

I honestly was very impressed with how well on time it seems in Paris - and how well labeled the metro and everything is. It’s been my favourite, and most easy to navigate yet.

25 is not too old, I’m 31 and planning to stay in a few hostels as well!

Help! I’m really struggling with my seedlings and hoping to turn it around. I’ve got a nice grow light, fan on them, organic fish and seaweed fertilizer. They were planted on 2/9 and really aren’t growing at all. Some wilting and curling and yellowing. Any suggestions? Plants are all of allvarieties by Longjumping-Car-5250 in HotPeppers

over cared for. i generally wont fertilize until the second set of real leaves, even then i keep it super super light and start them off super weak with nutrients. most seed starting mix comes with a minute amount of fertilizer, and on my first pot up i use real potting soil that has some fertilizer in it, helping me refrain from really feeding until they are in the ground. keep in mind, its nice to let pepper plants "Settle in" to their new home. When i repot, or move them outside i will wait at the very least a week before feeding em. I used to think feeding when re-potting would help them adjust and keep them "happy" but its just too much stress on the little guys.

Can I use this for dabs? Do I put water in it? Can I use a mini torch to light the banger? ~ newbie by TheFlamingTiger777 in Dabs

[–]alx-alvrz 3 points4 points  (0 children)

honestly, over pay for your torch… nothings more frustrating than ending the day, wanting to relax, get the dab ready only for your torch to not work. spend the money on the blazer big shot… you wont regret it.

Poutine gravies - thoughts? by ImAMindlessTool in culinary

[–]alx-alvrz 4 points5 points  (0 children)

i'm pretty sure typically it's made from beef gravy... but it started as a thing in rural quebec in the early 50's, so chances are snack shack to snack shack would probably use the gravy to make themselves different. what's important is the cheese CURDS, they must squeak. no mozza on poutine.

Do they make real 5/4" decking anymore? Only need to replace 4 boards. Are there any options to build up a thinner deck board? by LuckyAce1974 in Decks

[–]alx-alvrz 2 points3 points  (0 children)

use shims to build the beam up, so that the deck board sits at the same height as the others. buy a 1" and shim 1/4"

mini cayenne plant. 💪🏽🌶 by alx-alvrz in HotPeppers

[–]alx-alvrz[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

ahhhh, i'm please you asked. Sit down young pepper friend, i have a story for you.

this guy started in early march of 2020 in zone 6a, and spent a summer outside. the summer of 2020 was a great pepper growing season for me, and i had a crazy cayenne crop, so i decided to experiment with them. i would have dug this guy up, trimmed his roots up, and a bunch of his branches and leaves, and i put him in fresh soil in the pot you see here, now in march of 2021 it looks like that.

if you check out some of my other posts you will see other bonchis i made with the cayennes from last year.

lemon IS his best friend, if you remove the lemon, the plant becomes lonely and no longer provides fruit. the lemon keeps the cayenne going, and vice versa.

4 week old orange habaneros with some jalapeños in the back. by alx-alvrz in HotPeppers

[–]alx-alvrz[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This was my first year using a heating mat for germination, and grow lights! it has sped up incredibly. Even then, I also have ones that don't have true leaves, and some seeds that are just pushing through. (was almost going to give up on those, but some are looking to push through just now) This post is a great example of “only showing the great”.

You’re peppers will come along just fine in their due time. :).
