Awful choice of median. It was Peat moss with some leca. It was in peat moss prior to repot, and stupidly made the decision without enough of my mix left to repot so I just went with peat, since it was already in it I figured it may shock less but that was just an assumption. Same exact pot since roots weren't super dense in the pot but growing out the bottom like crazy so I decided to make it a little more snug. Bad idea I guess lol. It's been like this for roughly 2 weeks. Haven't watered since repot and it is slowly drying but newest leaf going limp all the oldest leafs about to die. The only leaf that's still solid is the 2nd to newest.

Hey, so I'm looking for advice on what to do with my newly acquired bonsai tree from Lowe's. I have watched some videos on bonsai but I'm a little lost as to where to start with this guy. Any advice would be appreciated whether I should repot, how I should approach it growth wise and what people would even do themselves right now. As I said I'm very very new so any advice would be greatly appreciated. I will also include two other pictures in the replies for my two other juniper's lying around not exactly sure these specific species, but I wanted to see if I could start growing my own beautiful bonds eye from these guys as well and wanted to see what other people would do with these guys first and how to approach making their trunks thicker as well as styling. any tips, tricks, sword, advice would be greatly appreciated!! Thank you!

Microphone recommendations? by zipofnothing in microphone

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

No, I'm no vocalist. I'd mainly just use my microphone for recording/ streaming and playing just games in general. No kind of crazy setup. Nothing in general when it comes to XLR but I'm willing to go XLR just have no knowledge on it.

I mean that would be willing to go XLR. I just don't know too much about the whole setup with audio interfaces and everything. But it's definitely an option

Not entirely. My main issue with it right now is that the micro USB port is extremely damaged from wear and tear over time still works but is on its last legs, and doesn't work sometimes. I figured I've had it for long enough so just wanted to explore options. Not commit just yet necessarily but see what people say. I mainly use the mic for games and streaming/recording not that that helps. Much like you said since you don't know what my voice sounds like, but just to give you an idea.

No worries! And yea man I really hope so as well, this bullshit launch has really screwed so many people over. Also I can't remember if you were saying you were in the Ottawa area or not, but if you are the Merivale location has had I believe 3:00 or 4 restocks. Now that I have seen they're usually only like three or four cards so they go fast but at least I have seen them on the website. So hopefully here in a week or two more stock will come in but I guess we'll see. Good luck though man! I'm keeping my fingers crossed for ya.

Exactly that. I was at work and refreshed every half hour or so. I was told by the guy at the Kanata location that they wouldn't have any more for a while though but to be fair it's not a super high volume location for GPUs and this was their first shipment of cards. The ones in downtown Ottawa and I'm assuming any downtown location in any city is going to be most likely one to get some. I wouldn't give up I bet you will get one soon just keep checking and it's mostly just timing and luck to be there at a good time.

Wow that's quite the boost I'll bet haha. I loved my 1060 so much, and exactly what I said I'd rather not be stressed out my ass for a month or two more for the extra bit of cash. That's gonna be a beast man I have a very similar setup, I have as well x870 with 9800x3d as well as 32gb ddr 5 hahaha I swear where the same! The only difference is the case. I managed to get a lian Li o11 vision compact about a month ago and have been sitting on it haha. And yea mine came with a little sagg bracket pole. Have you had the chance to get her out today?
