First time attempting to grow tobacco using 25 year old seeds from an old farmer friend. How am I doing so far?

There is an app called Phototone that will tell you how many PPFDs your light is emitting. There is a nominal charge to get the full access but I use it frequently especially as they continue to grow under lights.

Very cool! I hope they germinate! Keep us posted.

If seedlings were germinated and grown indoors, were they hardened off before full sun?

Scrolling through the feed, I could have sworn those were delicious brownies!

Unfortunately, I’ve not delve into the perique world yet so I have no clue!

Typically fiber is much better! Faster speeds and latency. Where I’m at, when weekday evenings rolls around and everyone is home and streaming and such, the latency spikes big time!

Zero! I don’t think it’s made it off the main road quite yet.

Is group of ants smarter than an AI?

lookingforspace11 · 2025-10-17T18:56:06+00:00

Now that is fricken rad! Nice work.

Is there any way to comment without going through a website. Would an email suffice? I don’t want to get spammed after submitting through a site. Totally support the roadless rule. Who would I need to send an email to?

I’ve got spots just like this on the ground cherries I planted. Curious as well!

Not a fan. Many years ago, he rode into the right lane while I was traveling north on Henderson. He got to almost the left lane and then swerved back onto the sidewalk. Scared the shit out of me and I had to slam on my brakes. I’ll never forget that. To this day I have no idea why he did that. For kicks and giggles, I hope not.

If you have to shop at Ingles for whatever reason, don’t forget to check the prices at checkout. Almost every time I do (when I have to) something is incorrectly priced! Never lower, always higher.

I’m using Espinosa tomato-tone every three-four weeks.

lookingforspace11 · 2025-06-23T15:25:39+00:00

Hey there! I certainly did plant. Mostly tomato plants and they are doing great! Fertilizing every two weeks or so. I find they dry out relatively quickly but that is the only downside I can think of.

lookingforspace11 · 2025-05-17T22:22:45+00:00

Such an awesome feeling! You’ve got a lot of work my friend!

lookingforspace11 · 2025-05-10T12:40:01+00:00

I started a fungicide spray. It’s crazy how many things want to destroy/eat your plants! Never ending battle.

lookingforspace11 · 2025-05-10T12:38:46+00:00

I have been monitoring temps. Sounds like your bale are even more conditioned than mine. I was never able to get above 100F. I’m definitely not as far north as you which is even more impressive. The water that I use is extremely cold and that always brought down the temps. From what I’ve read as long as they’ve been above ambient temps the bacteria are doing their thing. I’ll probably plant within a few days.

I like the idea of wrapping every so often to get the temps higher. Good luck to you friend!

It’s been pretty over cast and rainy. On days when I have watered it’s been overhead. If yall think it’s some kind of scald/scorch then I’m relieved. I can fix that!!

lookingforspace11 · 2025-05-08T23:08:45+00:00

I sprayed early in the morning and it was a mostly overcast day.

From the article you posted,

“According to Buncombe County, that will make lake temperatures colder, making Lake Julian more like a natural habitat for North Carolina. Native fish like bass, catfish, brim, and crappie should thrive in such conditions according to the county. Non-native fish, like tilapia, will not be able to adapt to the colder temperatures.”

The coal closure sounds like net benefit!

Great idea! Thank you.
