My first guitar was a Tele. When I married my wife her dad gave me his 63 Fender Vibrolux in trade for my smaller solid state Peavey. The buttery and biting sounds that this combo makes is amazing :)

Just don't sit on the ungrounded amp while playing the ungrounded Tele. :(

Microphones and recording gear can also give you a jolt with that setup.

No way!! I`ll try not to carry this as a music thread any longer but my first guitar was a 1952 Reissue Tele,

My baby, but sold her for a Horilux system and a 400CFM fan a couple years back :D. I gotta get a copy of Subs book, bet there`s some gold in there ...

Can`t wait for an update Mo !!

Another sack of my spuds are flopping over and giving up the ghost. Down to one bag, I hope I can get these going again.

I heard a trick for potatoes is to keep adding more dirt as they grow up (in mounds or in a trash can) and you will get more potatoes. Mine are getting big so I need to add some dirt. I tried this last year in the garden and it was progressing nicely and then they all started getting eaten by something. I caught a bud worm in there yesterday. Bugs are going to be bad this year. I need to build a greenhouse!

this is exactly what we do. We use old soil bags, I turn the bag down and start with a few spuds and some soil, as they grow just cover the leaves with more soil until the bag is full. Then when the spuds have flowered and the greenery has died off, rip the bag open to find your spuds....well that's what we done last year.

flowering is when you know your tatties are getting there......really small delicate flowers you get. It's also like a little mini treasure hunt when looking through the sac for the prize spuds! tis good fun.

Lol, I knew it. I used to live in Westminster, North OC can get pretty humid, they definitely call Westminster Little Saigon for more than one reason, lol. Try anything Hindu outside, does really really well in your area.

Also, subbed.

@jozikins - I want to find some killer old school Hindu Kush like I had in the 80's. Cross it with the bubblegum Mulanje until I can create a stable OC Kush :)

@DST - my family has worked for Air Research since the 60's (saw my first computer in 67) and that company was bought by Honeywell, so now I have cousins that still work there. I like their products. Plus it was on sale at Target where I also get 5% off when I use the Target charge card :)

I put another layer of dirt on the potatoes and the garden is going crazy. I will take some pictures if I get a chance. Will be moving stuff to a storage unit this weekend - so there goes more free time down the drain.

Keep up the great grows, keep writing, and take pictures!

Cheers,
Mo

Make sure you fill out the online surveys on the receipts from Target. They actually work. My wife won once.

I got something for Mohican!

In other news, those honeywell vortex fans make the single-meanest DIY inline fan I've ever tested. A 5" Honeywell kept my experimental strain cab juiced for about 1.5 years before I moved.

Holy Cow man. That's a lot of work just to take all those pictures much less take care of all of them. So awesome. Are those purple roses? I didn't even know roses came in a shade like that. And are the Gardenia's growing out the top of the fridge? I would guess they aren't, but it sure looks like they are.

You have such a lovely back yard garden. It makes me miss my grandparents actually. Hope your day is going well bro.

My Grandmother grew some gigantic roses and they always smelled so fragrant. She also turned me on to mint.
The grapes are what is growing over the top of the fridge.
The purple roses are named blue roses and smell very strong and sweet. I put some in my office one time and I had to remove them because their smell was too strong!
Almost everything in the garden is set up for water only. I may still need to add some micro elements every once in a while.

The super soil is probably ready now. I need to drill some holes in my new containers and get them ready for some MJ plants :)
