80° and sticky here. Very smoky too. Gonna put up the pop-up tent over the deck table. Then grill and smoke and drink. Some friends are coming over. Oh their here.....gotta go

Figured out my problem, and a solution. An anti siphon valve.

I also like their filter....I already did put a check valve (non return valve)

I thought I had this covered as my manifold is above the top of my reservoir, but because my distribution lines are below the res, it started siphoning.

Hopefully I can find one for PVC! Or just put 20 gallons in res instead of 30.

Playing in intense heat can be a beast. Sometimes just finishing is an accomplishment. As one of my old foursome always said on very hot and humid days - "JUST GET ME TO THE HOUSE!!"

I pump it to a 1 gallon container so I can measure who gets what. OCD the gift that keeps on counting.

The runoff is what tells me if they need more. I mixed the nutes and pHed the water in a 5 gal bucket. The runoff I pumped into gallon water bottles and used it on my outdoor plants. The tomatoes liked it.

I have had a few stages of improvement over the past ... let's say several ... years. I started playing and the scores were between 120 - 125 with tons of penalty strokes and lost balls.

Had corrected the major slice and reduced them to 100 and 110 with fewer lost balls but still with too many penalties.

Lately the hook has been straightening and a lot more penalty strokes are coming off the scores. Losing fewer balls too. And this is were I am currently - between 85 and 95 but still clank a few bad drives and take a few chubby chip shots. When I reduce those, I can be in the high 70's.

Whenever possible use the putter around the greens. Don't get flippy when chipping, hands lead the club.

a simpler solution is to just drill a small hole in your tubing at the top of your rez so water sprays back into the rez. When the pump turns off the hole breaks the siphon.

I use a small piece of plastic inline with the hole aimed down.

Definitely. If I am on the fringe, out comes the flatstick.

It's that 15 - 20 yard touch shot over a bunker. Those shots seem to go only 14 - 19 yards.

And then I have a bunker shot.

Shudder, I'm not the worlds worst bunker player but I am ranked.

When and where is the RIU four ball golf invitational, anyway? I'm centrally located and can offer decent club amenities. I would need 72 entrants to book the course for a day. My state goes legal August 1st....

I love it! Thank you.

Yeah it was kind of shocking seeing all those nutes gone...I'll bet that has led to many a wet floor.

I did make a smore....Damn it was just a little too sweet. One was definitely enough.

Might need more dabs. Marinated chicken was good though.
