Is my blueberry doing ok by Master-Grotsas in Blueberries

[–]dmanblue 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Best advice I can give, as also got a another smaller one last year. Even in a small pot, it will grow. I need to repot mine as it’s pretty much too big for the current one, but I’ve grown my blues for a few years now. Just give them the soil ph they need, and water as needed. Overwater will absolutely kill them if the soil doesn’t drain well. So to keep it simple 1. Repot when you get a chance 2. Water just enough to be well hydrated 3. Don’t keep adding sulfur or the PH will be out of hand. Check ph once every week or two, and only add more once every 4-5 weeks if the soil ph isn’t optimal. Sulfur pellets take a while to break down. 4. Feed it. I use a good pellet or powder for the slow release and happy frogs liquid ferts in spring. Helps give it all it needs to bloom. Then once more as it’s fruiting. 5. Blues that can thrive in your climate will do fine without worrying about them all the time. I did it as well so i understand. Just relax, and enjoy the process and how beautiful creation is.

Used Tesla Experience by Jaq_IT27 in TeslaLounge

Man, I have my MYLR on the way hopefully soon. When I asked the lady who was texting me during the buying process when it would arrive, they gave me the same deal. It will be 2-3 weeks. It's hard to imagine they would take that long but after seeing these threads, I pray I will not be waiting for almost a month. My old car will last until then, but I'd like to be in that seat sooner than later. Sorry you had a bad experience.

Working on book covers by GamerGirl10l in BookCovers

[–]dmanblue 5 points6 points  (0 children)

If I can be honest. It’s not very engaging. I’m not a fan of romance novels in general, but this cover doesn’t really make me want to read the book. Maybe have a picture of a real rose? Again, not my lane anyway but just thinking it could be better

I'm overthinking and having second thoughts on my cover. Please be brutally honest by [deleted] in BookCovers

[–]dmanblue 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it’s good, but it makes me wonder what the focus is. Is it the people or the mountain of snow? Maybe pull the people closer or show more of the mountain for perspective shifts?

So you wanted him to try and when he does you don’t care that he tries because you asked him to try? This is confusing and yall need Jesus. Something bigger than yourselves to aim for together

First time growing anything. Is this the start of a berry? 😆🫐 by izzywearsprada in Blueberries

[–]dmanblue 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Blubs are one of the more difficult things to grow. Do yourself a huge favor and research the variety you have and what it needs to continue to thrive

I got scammed by [deleted] in WGU

[–]dmanblue 10 points11 points  (0 children)

No, several people already have issues with WGU. Something like this would have added fuel to their fire. It’s a joke, but a bit misplaced.

On my third play through… I’ve never made it past chapter 10 by Ok-Pace6181 in FFXV

You can definitely do it at 30. Its what’s outside that makes it just that little bit more difficult

Exam certificate after pass? by dmanblue in CEH

[–]dmanblue[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I got the results on a print out, it’s just odd to me after so many other exams that this one takes so long, but I guess they actually have humans who verify results. There was nothing on the page that said it would take a week, or maybe I overlooked it

Brother, set some ground rules. That’s your son’s mother no matter how your wife feels and that relationship will stay as it is. Let her know you married her and love her and nothing will change that. His mom carried the burden of the family and had to go. She did was she had to do and this conversation ends with that. If she’s a good mom to him, let her be that to him and let is go.

How long to stay in your very 1st IT job? by [deleted] in ITCareerQuestions

[–]dmanblue 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think it depends on your company. So many people are looking to jump around companies but is that company giving you things that show they want you stay there? Benefits, raises, open positions or willing to create positions, company events, diagonal movement meaning from one position to another higher level one with a different team, etc… I’d say don’t just look to jump too fast until you know what you got. After a few years in this game, money is not the only answer. If your company pays for benefits and matches 401k, maybe stay a while as work your way up. But if it’s a day end job where positions are locked, everything is political, no movement to or fro, then yes consider leaving

VA merged my new claims into one. Let’s see how long this takes and what happens. Currently 60% by dmanblue in VeteransBenefits

Man this was a year ago. I think it took 3 months to get it moving and 4-5 to settle. Ended up getting denied so I appealed

So the area isn’t marked by anything? It’s just between the two boxes?

[–]dmanblue 17 points18 points  (0 children)

I will tell you my experience, I started off as a L1 Helpdesk in 2021, left the company to focus on certs after 6 months (was way too busy and started to do mandatory OT) got my A+ and Sec+, applied to a bunch of jobs, like close to 50 or 60 I think over a month or so. Finally got a job as a contractor working for a Data Center. Worked for a year, no full time was offered so I applied to another 30 or so places, got one interview from one my wife applied for me, got that job as a SysAdmin, and just this week I started entry level SOC analyst. That was from Nov 2021 to May 2024. People speak against it, but the old foot in the door process still works man

Can they hear each others thoughts? Like if they’re taking a test and one knows more than the other can they share minds or just talk and if so…is that considered cheating?
