Hey 6'ers,
Long time its been. But I got attacked by thrips and mites and am using a homemade rosemary oil based organic insecticide that seems to be amazing. I realized about a week ago that there was an actual bit of web on of of the plants. After further inspection I found there were mites on a few of the plants in the tent. Did some research and found that rosemary oil kills mites on contact. I found a recipe 1 oz. oil per gallon of water and a few drops of dish soap. Shake well. I sprayed most of the plants down, but there were mites in my veg area too. So they resurfaced. I got some more rosemary oil and treated them again.But, there was one particular plant that I didnt feel could be salvaged, so I had it away from all other vegetation. I decided to really put the rosemary oil to the test using this plant as an experiment. After 1-2 days of isolation from the rest of the garden, the mites were visible on the tops of the leaves not just the bottom, and you could see them crawling around. After treatment 0 movement. Smells awesome too.

Enwhysea, what you have given them should be enough. Don't concentrate on the growth that is already there or yellowing, concentrate on the new growth. If the new growth tips are coming through dark and happy then don't overdo it trying to get yellow leaves to magically turn green, it won't happen.
Hemlock, always a pleaure to see you at the Club. Tricks are good, and with you?
Nice recipe shishka. Did you just go and buy straight rosemary oil, or did you make it?

nyc, is that back middle plant in mapito? never seen anyone here use it before.
as dst says, if the new shoots are good then the plant is good, getting a yellow leaf to turn green requires a lot of sorcery.
hope everyone is good today, and that dooobie never got a 600cc super bike. ( no offence but i wouldn't recommend anybody over the age of 30 get a superbike, they are impractical and highly dangerous, especially when high
)

Just found out that the usual setup fee for this one is $1000.This one is a 2014 model, and it's discounted $400, and there is no added freight fee or setup fee (usually an extra $300 to $400 dollars)...
I had my 1985 600R delivered to my driveway in Alaska from the motorcycle dealer in Federal Way, Washington.
They come 90% assembled in a wooden crate.
Usually the motorcycle dealer finishes assembly and then also does a QA inspection to make sure everything is as it's supposed to be.
Anyways, this one must come with more parts needing attached, because $1000 setup fee seems 3 times more than what I'd expect, having assembled my 600R from a crate in the past.
And @ghb : my super sport days are long behind me
Aside from a short break during marriage, I have ridden motorcycles since I was 4 years old (didn't learn how to ride a bicycle until I was 8 years old).
And I've learned restraint when riding on the roads.
The wife had no idea what kind of can of worms she opened up by letting me get that scooter...
I told you guys after I got the scooter that it'd be 1-3 years before upgrading to a Ninja.
So it's now almost exactly 18-mos since then.
My next goal is also in 1 to 3 years: a Ninja 650R, which is nowhere near as radical as the Ninja ZX-6R.
It's more of a sport tour bike that happens to be able to keep up with the Ninja 636 and ZX-6R when in the right hands, but won't break your back or wrists or cramp your legs on long rides.
With a bad back & radial tunnel & carpal tunnel, I need the more upright seating so I can ride for more than 15 minutes at a time.
Anyways (damn these sativas), I really appreciate the well wishes to be safe
Shit can happen at any time when on two wheels, so I keep my head on a swivel & wired to my ass.
I expect everyone to not see me, and don't hotdog or drive too much like a squid, so that rases the safety odds a bit.
And I'm an "All the gear, all the time." kind of rider.
Gotta live before we die, so I'm grabbing the bull by the balls and playing patty cakes with his baby maker sack!
Time to wake & bake.
Paperwork gets filled out today and submitted, then driving out to Bend to visit the wife's ant & uncle-in-law so we'll be stopping in to the motorcycle dealership to get some face time with them, and so I can check out the bike.
Once things are finalized, I take my 42mph scooter on a 20-mile road trip out of town on a 65mph highway that everyone does 80mph on (OR Highway 22E), to do the trade-in, and get the keys to my new bike.
The highway drive on the scooter will be...
... interesting.
If things work out, it should be early to mid-week next week.
And the plants are budding up nicely in the back yard!
Will have some new pics a bit later today when the sun hits them.
Wake & bake!!!
(finishing the second half of the joint I started last night)

I don't know
I've always wanted a lime green ninja (that's Kawasaki's official racing color), so when I look at it, I don't see a need to change it right away.
What I might do is convert all stickers to paint (I hate stickers on a bike).
This is just too sweet looking to do much to (in my stoned, and very biased opinion):

600's are for the track. Just get a liter bike and be done with upgrading! You know these words resonate within your soul which yearns to ride a rocket!I don't know

And motorcycles are dangerous? Not if you are a mature rider. I kept myself out of wrecks on a daily basis just off knowing how to spot bad drivers, and having a way to escape tight situations. Most of the idiots riding are younger kids. I was once one of them, and learned the hard way.
