Rough morning, I think I burned up on re-entry. Time to water the veg and take the meds. But first, a few bong rips. Morning all

PSA for the floraflex crowd. I noticed yesterday some.plants weren't getting fully watered and saw some emitters were barely flowing. Pulled some tubes off and one port had a chunk of debris almost fully blocking it. Removed the top from the bubbler and discovered a bit of peat, perlite and maybe undissolved chunks of maxibloom. I'm going to put my pumps in a filter bag. This would be a nightmare to fix deep in flower.

morning, all. woke up to the old man leaving for a two day work trip so i get to clean the house to my liking without having anyone gripe at me about what i'm throwing out. this is my idea of bliss. haha! is anyone like me? i love to declutter and get rid of things - so much so that sometimes i have to admit defeat when i'm turning around and buying something that i threw out six months prior.
just checked all the plants outside - lettuces and spinach survived. the onions are big enough that they'll be fine, unless we get some crazy freeze in the next few weeks. on the porch a couple of zinnias have popped, but that's about it. no
yet. i took off humidity domes because i don't like how saturated all the cells look. my day will consist of cleaning, getting some work done, and picking up dog poop. i try to ignore it but we're at max capacity and it's cold enough that it's not a disgusting job. i much prefer poopsicles to soggy mush

my favorite spring time game is : "DooDoo or Dead Leaf?" best as a two player game, so you can get a second opinion as to whether what you're looking at is indeed, a random dog turd, or if it's a dead leaf. this is also a good game in the fall if you're in the vicinity of a tree that's dropped brown leaves vs vibrantly colored leaves.The poo sludge is why I go out whenever the dogs use the bathroom to pick it up. 3 am and need to find pants and boots? Better than a minefield of poo sludge come spring when the snow melts
Blech
there are a couple of local businesses that do nothing but clean up dog shit. i've never used them but mannnnn have i considered it.

I thought you where doing drain to waste? Why is that happening?

This is on the supply side not the waste side. I figured out I fill that res by hauling buckets of water upstairs. Buckets are multipurpose in the growing game, rootballs, recycled medium etc. The other res is filled from a hose bibb so those manifolds look pristine in comparison, no debris at all. I bought a filter bag for a pool vac to put my pump in. Should fix the issue.

Oh, that's the one you haul water to. You need clean buckets. But the sock should work.

I always keep my pumps in bags.

I've always called them "pump socks".......not to be confused with "shot socks".....totally different type of sock

I can't use pump bags because my setup requires that I use the pump's bottom suction cups. So I just cut up a pump bag and wrap a piece around the pump's intake vents and tuck it in. You can secure it with a zip tie if need be. Works great, I never get any debris in my pipes or sprayers.

Mornin'. Heading to 60F. More melting today. Still measurable snow in the forecast for Wed/Thurs...so it may actually happen. 
Most of the time they start out with big predictions and then whittle away at em til it becomes a(nother) forecasted Sunny day. C'mon BIG dump....
I hope all is cool on your side of things this AM.....
