What did you accomplish today?

Oh I forgot the punch line, she promptly sold an entire box of albums full of bills and coins for $50, had to be well over $2k just in face value if she would have taken them to the bank to exchange.

I've not used sulfur powder for pH adjustment due to water pH, but there are a lot of web-based calculators for that dosing. I've used it as a fungicide with great results but not on pot. I used to contract grow flowers for a seed company 6-10 acres per year. Did it for 5 yrs (Don't ever consider it, brutal risky biz.) Anyway,harvest time was usually early Nov, just as the rainy season started. First year I lost more than half the seeds to mold and shit after harvest. The seed has to dry for a couple weeks before being bagged up and shipped to the company. Anyway, I tried the sulfur powder; spread the seed, dust, rake it in, next batch. Saved those subsequent seeds from the mold.

I worked for a seed producer for about a year. Grass seeds mostly. All the grasses including wheat, millet, red top sorghum, red clover, etc, etc, etc. I worked on the drying, cleaning, bagging, testing and labeling side of things. {although I did go in the field to help with combine repair a few times} We used hot air coming up from the screen bottoms of the drying bins. We spread something in the seeds when they came in off the trucks, but I can't remember what it was. {it was 30 years ago}

My stepdaughter comes up with "easy, get rich" ideas frequently. She once talked of growing lavender for profit.

She has a hard time growing grass, I knew that idea would never blossom.

Yep. Out of the clear blue my sister emails me : "Now that it's legal, grow Hemp for CBD" She throws in some BS calcs from some article she got the idea from(mixing middleman and retail costs/profits not grower) no legally required permit and taxes. It's just toss seed in the ground and you'll be rich. I emailed back: Fuck off

If what you wore when you spread the stuff on seeds was respiration and sealed eye protection, it was very likely sulfur
Edit: sulfur dust mixes with tears to make Sulfuric acid lol

The trucks came in at night, so I didn't actually do the spreading. But it didn't have the rotten egg smell, so most likely some sort of pesticide.

Was it pink, or the seed pink afterwards? That's a combo pest/fungicide for packaging seeds

My wife gave my coin collection away.

They were only worth face value. A box full. Coins collected from my travels.

I was pissed she gave them to her uncle. She said "You never even look at them and Perry likes them".

Pissed is a calm description. Most of them were still in circulation so those were no big deal.


I was livid that he sorted through the box took out the unique ones I prized and returned the rest

The 1981 Australian Princess Diana 50 cent piece was the ONLY one that I have not completely let her off the hook for.

That sucks. Did you start collecting again after that? I guess replacing it with a coin from ebay won't have the same memories.

A few of these coins are really old. I found a Portuguese 1928 coin and an old Greek lepton that has a hole in the center of it. There's a lot of still in circulation coins in here too like Euros, Canadian silver dollars and 50 cent pieces. I'm going to ask him if I can keep the lepton. It's not very valuable.

I can't remember there being any color on the seeds. Not like you see in bought seeds. We had to weigh the bags, and add or remove to make them exact, and I never had any come off on my hands.

Just got off the phone with accounts payable from Spectrum. Again. Our cable stopped working the day of the hurricane, October 10th. We have not been hooked back up since. Yet they want back pay for that whole time. I keep telling them we are not going to pay for a service we did not receive, and they say they have to keep calling until it's turned over to a collection agency. It's no biggie to me, but my boss gets so pissed she has to go home when she talks to them.

I bought an indoor antenna for 25 bucks, and it gets nearly the same level of crap that cable did.

We have a buyer that fly's in before harvest and will 'Buy-the-farm'....just weight it up he says. It sure makes life easier.

They pop up every now and then if I see one I’ll take a pic of it. If you want I can send it.

Spent all day helping the farmer down the road, he was a little short handed and needed me to shovel shit and work the fields.
