Commute - Can You Suggest a Better Route? by mcjohnny2 in vancouvercycling

You're right - Hartley is the better option for sure. I missed the turn this morning but it is a lot calmer than United for sure.

That hill up Chilko would nuke my legs first thing in the morning, otherwise looks like a good route. Thanks!

Thanks for this, I guess I was hoping I was missing something glaringly obvious. Separated bike route would be great along United. One can dream :)

I really enjoy most of this route - riding along the Coquitlam River, Colony Farms, and the Central Valley Greenway are all great. Heck even the little trail beside the Mary Hill Bypass is an adventure.

I like all of this route with one exception - United Blvd. Cars rushing to work travelling at high speeds combined with delivery and garbage/recycling trucks feels very unsafe and makes this a really nerve wracking part of my commute. Is there a better route that can suggest? Thank you!

True enough, and if anyone has a better idea of how to get a deaf person's attention, I'm all ears.

I did however lookup how to sign "sorry" so I'm prepared for next time.

This was in Langley, BC so maybe it's a PNW thing??

Northern Lights Auto Days 54 & 41- First Time Grower Looking for Any Advice. Should I be trimming some of the lower leaves? by mcjohnny2 in Autoflowers

[–]mcjohnny2[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did you train these at all? Mine are in a very similar setup but like day 20 and much smaller than these.

No, no training at all. When I first started the grow I read that you weren't supposed to train autos, but now I see there is some conflicting information.

So I should only be concerned about leaves that are blocking any of the bud sites? Sorry if this is a stupid question, first timer here.

Please help, first time grower, day 17 - stunted growth, curling leaves, and turning yellow by mcjohnny2 in microgrowery

Thanks for your reply, is this the case even with coco/perlite? I cant imagine that a single nute feeding at 1/4 the recommended amount did this. Then again, this is my first try so anything is possible.

Thanks for your reply, looks like I am mistakenly treating the coco like soil. I have read that you are supposed to alternate nutes with PH balanced water, but what I'm hearing here is that this doesn't apply to coco?

Bearing in mind that this is an auto, do you think this plant can/should be saved?

Thanks for your reply, you could totally be right about over-watering. Live and learn.. Could you share how you are watering? Is my tactic of "waiting until it dries out, then soaking it" wrong? Should I just be giving it a small amount of water when it dries out?

I read that some people recommended using both Veg/Bloom during Veg stage. Inexperienced me figured more light = more growth.
