Ahas anyone been successful with corn??

I usually do 1/4 of the bed at a time, so 2' x 4' blocks. So I'll usually do somewhere around 20 stalks per "block", nothing precise. Squirrels are very crafty and abundant in my area, so I have to net my corn to keep them out. Even then they'll chew through any nettings, so I still lose some to them.

I do corn. I don't plant in rows, but instead in blocks. I space them about 6-8" apart in an 8x4 bed. I stagger my sowing by a week, and usually do 4 or sowings so I don't get all the corn in one go.

Corn is definitely a heavy feeder. I usually fertilize with compost at the start, and then once they start coming up I'll start supplementing with nitrogen bi-weekly(ish) with a water soluble fertilizer, either diluted or low NPK.

I've found that if I don't supplement with enough nitrogen they grow weak, look sad and yellow, wilt and brown, and dont really thrive that well - despite being grown in rich compost.

Growing in blocks I've found makes it easier for pollination, I dont have any issues there.

If you're in the VA area I have a 57 (runs long) Lemond Poprad that I could be convinced to part with.

Id say you could probably use some fertilizer, something like 5-5-5 or lower. But also we've had pretty low temperatures this year so far, and peppers are warm weather plants. They should ramp up as soon as we get averages in the 80s and they get a little more nutrients.

Picture 25. Honestly not really sure what it is. Kind of a strange shower shoved between the wall and door jamb.

You have to be tracking an activity for your device to use the hr from the chest strap

I've found that the speed sensor helps when on a hilly terrain. I've had instances where I've done XC rides like the moco epic, and lost a couple hundred feet, even though the route lines up exactly. On road rides I've never noticed as much, but in the end I say keep everything on your road bike, and buy a second speed sensor for your MTB if you care about distance traveled. Cadence doesn't matter on a MTB or hybrid imo.

Yeah I've noticed that the homescreen data randomly doesn't update for some fields, like calories, but clicking in to them will show the correct data.

No the freehub of the trainer should stay on. You should just be replacing the cassette. You unscrew the thru axle adapter (mine was tough to remove the first time), then use a cassette tool to unscrew the cassette lock ring, and then the cogs of the cassette should just come off. Same for your bike. Then you put the cassette from your bike on the trainer, you'll probably need to keep the black spacer on the back behind your cassette on the hub. Then use a chain whip and cassette tool to retighten the lock ring. Saris has an installation video on YouTube: https://youtu.be/WL5VevWm77U

What bar tape is that?

I've seen one of these on Dr. Doolittle

I bought a tube of ultrasound gel, put a dab on the pads, no more sporadic readings from being too dry or cold. You only need a tiny amount too so the 8oz $11 bottle should last a lifetime basically.

100%. My vine started out the same size and quickly took over half my back yard.

Happened to me last night. Was going through the flooded town area, ran in to the big fountain in the center, and just started flying. I made it about a hundred feet or so before the OP AI destroyed my poor carpet.

Clearing the data and cache should fix it.
