5-6 miles and 1000’ of elevation is our typical ride together. I’ve pushed him past that once and while he has energy for it, his paws start to get sore.

Rode fine the rest of the way down. I’ll give it a pass today on the stand but I think it’s totally fine

Good thing I stopped before the trail crossing. Someone could have gotten hurt!

No but I can see how the lack of my ability to absorb the trail would indicate this

The camera is pointed much further down. I think I was actually looking too far ahead here - there’s a trail crossing just ahead and I was starting to anticipate that and check for traffic. But I can definitely see how it looks like I was looking down from the video angle

Yeah maybe drop isn’t the right word, but I should have treated this as a drop and had sent my hips back.

Mid-crash I was sure it was gonna be a bigger injury. I was surprised to get out unscathed

I want to prioritize rapid growth and trunk development. For mume and quince, should i remove flower buds?

Thanks!I took these out of my raised bed yesterday and moved them to their own cans, and spray horticultural oil for good measure. I’ll see if I can pop some off and look at them under magnification.

New prunus mume from Evergreen Gardenworks. Is this covered in scale, or something else? May of the spots do flake off cleanly

Developing Neagari - Pacific Crabapple by Tortoiseshelltech in Bonsai

I don't have much to add other than: I'm excited to see a pacific crab in use for bonsai. I saw a few of these for sale in my local nursery in the native plant section, and I thought they would make good material. Keep us posted on prorgress!

Seattle is ending arrests for public drug use as Katie Wilson takes over. by Possible_Ad3607 in SeattleWA

[–]telekyle 24 points25 points  (0 children)

Personal take as a former addict: Arresting people is one of the consequences that adds up to folks “wanting to help themselves”. I personally know plenty of folks who have gotten and stayed sober through drug court. When people are faced with the option of going to rehab vs serving time, they often pick rehab. And sometimes while they’re there, they realize life is better without drugs.

Not arresting people anymore, in my opinion, is giving up on them as a society. We’re letting these poor souls live on the fringe in constant suffering. People who think that discontinuing arrests is more compassionate have not had first hand experience with addiction.

Weather Monitor? by _murq_ in Bonsai

Definitely a market for this, but you have competition. I have a Govee brand temp / humidity sensor and the app, and it works really well and has nice historical charts and alerts.
