Don't forget the preserved Lemons!
It's summer time, I need to fire up my tandoor.

Ha, love me some green..........I'm not on Merion's payroll wanted to get some shot's for you but that's a no-no on the course fucking ridiculous. You should see the pros out there, got all kinds of cops around them like they are protecting the president,lol. We got two days of heavy rain coming up, drainage is GOOD, but my life will still suckUS open huh. Did you wear your green ...... lol . That would be awesome to be there. I like golf..
Stay frosty
Oh yeah.............Coconut milk is for making curry you heathens
Now you guys are making me hungry.........gonna rock that shit^^So true!
I Love my fish with a coconut curry sauce.
MMM
Here is the recipe for anyone interested. I'm just in a giving mood.
Frosty?no.............toasty, yes.........trying to keep them alive at-this-pointYo have a dam tandoor ? and here I am in england only guy in my area with a smoker and 3 kinds of bbq grill Yet theres a Russia with and Tandoor and curry eating yanks who like coconut milk ? Man sometimes I forget that the 420 gang always ends up being hippy`s even on the hi tech threads we still end up talking about food Look I don`t know what NASA said all I know is I remember reading a few promising stories about how leds are being used to make food using less water. Dam it PSU I logged on to see if you`d posted pics of frosty nugs yet lol Hey that`s a dam cool name for a strain huh ? Frosty Nugs ?
Sorta. I made it myself. It was easy. If you have some area to put one like in a yard or something, you can make one too. No, I'm not Russian... sorry. I'm American.Yo have a dam tandoor ? and here I am in england only guy in my area with a smoker and 3 kinds of bbq grill Yet theres a Russia with and Tandoor and curry eating yanks who like coconut milk ?

Yep they are running at night already, I overestimated my max wattage for this sealed room by easily 50 watts(thought 130w, more like 80w) also I kept the panel distance too close for the summer, ran it like I did in the winter, OOPS..lol i knew i was fucked in May. Yeah the burning looks bad, BUT I had PM issues so the heavy center defoliation plus Neem applications where necessary! I knew that the neem would burn the leaves as well^^ as you can see, definitely effective on PM though. Not sure the 660nm being the culprit, Hans has them as well and basically stuck the panel on top of the girls on my first run with it and NO burning ..........IDK. It's all HEAT related IMO and that will be resolved after this run for good. Changing the light schedule is something I might fuck with, nothing too lose at this point.......oh and i'm cutting off even more of the dead leaves because my RH still is high. I'm amazed these bitches aren't completely toasted with extreme heat levels they went through.Hiya P! These pro's have gotten way too full of themselves. It's ridiculous how far removed they are from everyday life. On the bright side though I didn't see anything about 'no weed' on that list of prohibited items.
From your images I'd say at some point the diodes got too close and burned those fan leaves and with temps hitting 104f they have to be stressing. Are you running the lights at night where the ambient temps are presumably lower? Also just a suggestion; if the 730's are coming on at lights out why not run a 14/10 to see how they finish out? I'm betting you'll fatten up whats there and fill in those internodes a bit better.
Calcium carbonate is the active ingredient in agricultural lime, and is created when Ca ions in hard water react with carbonate ions creating limescale. It is commonly used medicinally as a calcium supplement or as an antacid, but excessive consumption can be hazardous.
Agricultural lime, also called aglime, agricultural limestone, garden lime or liming, is a soil additive made from pulverized limestone or chalk. The primary active component is calcium carbonate. Additional chemicals vary depending on the mineral source and may include calcium oxide, magnesium oxide and magnesium carbonate.
The effects of agricultural lime on soil are:
- it increases the pH of acidic soil (the higher the pH the less acidic the soil); in other words, soil acidity is reduced and alkalinity increased
- it provides a source of calcium and magnesium for plants
- it permits improved water penetration for acidic soils
- it improves the uptake of major plant nutrients (nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium) of plants growing on acid soils.
So far, I like what I see... now to research more.Calcium carbonate shares the typical properties of other carbonates. Notably:
CaCO[SUB]3(s)[/SUB] + 2 HCl[SUB](aq)[/SUB] → CaCl[SUB]2(aq)[/SUB] + CO[SUB]2(g)[/SUB] + H[SUB]2[/SUB]O[SUB](l)[/SUB]
- it reacts with strong acids, releasing carbon dioxide:
CaCO[SUB]3(s)[/SUB] → CaO[SUB](s)[/SUB] + CO[SUB]2(g)[/SUB] Calcium carbonate will react with water that is saturated with carbon dioxide to form the soluble calcium bicarbonate.
- it releases carbon dioxide on heating, called a thermal decomposition reaction, or calcination, (to above 840 °C in the case of CaCO[SUB]3[/SUB]), to form calcium oxide, commonly called quicklime, with reaction enthalpy 178 kJ / mole:
CaCO[SUB]3[/SUB] + CO[SUB]2[/SUB] + H[SUB]2[/SUB]O → Ca(HCO[SUB]3[/SUB])[SUB]2[/SUB]
Calcium carbonate is poorly soluble in pure water (47 mg/L at normal atmospheric CO[SUB]2[/SUB] partial pressure as shown below).
- At atmospheric levels of ambient CO[SUB]2[/SUB] the table indicates the solution will be slightly alkaline with a maximum CaCO[SUB]3[/SUB] solubility of 47 mg/L.
- As ambient CO[SUB]2[/SUB] partial pressure is reduced below atmospheric levels, the solution becomes more and more alkaline. At extremely low
, dissolved CO[SUB]2[/SUB], bicarbonate ion, and carbonate ion largely evaporate from the solution, leaving a highly alkaline solution of calcium hydroxide, which is more soluble than CaCO[SUB]3[/SUB]. Note that for= 10[SUP]−12[/SUP] atm, the [Ca[SUP]2+[/SUP]][OH[SUP]−[/SUP]][SUP]2[/SUP] product is still below the solubility product of Ca(OH)[SUB]2[/SUB] (8×10[SUP]−6[/SUP]). For still lower CO[SUB]2[/SUB] pressure, Ca(OH)[SUB]2[/SUB] precipitation will occur before CaCO[SUB]3[/SUB] precipitation.
The effect of the latter is especially evident in day-to-day life of people who have hard water. Water in aquifers underground can be exposed to levels of CO[SUB]2[/SUB] much higher than atmospheric. As such water percolates through calcium carbonate rock, the CaCO[SUB]3[/SUB] dissolves according to the second trend. When that same water then emerges from the tap, in time it comes into equilibrium with CO[SUB]2[/SUB] levels in the air by outgassing its excess CO[SUB]2[/SUB]. The calcium carbonate becomes less soluble as a result and the excess precipitates as lime scale. This same process is responsible for the formation of stalactites and stalagmites in limestone caves.
- As ambient CO[SUB]2[/SUB] partial pressure increases to levels above atmospheric, pH drops, and much of the carbonate ion is converted to bicarbonate ion, which results in higher solubility of Ca[SUP]2+[/SUP].
That bold part is what we're after. |
CaCO3 + H2O = CO2 at what temperature? Maybe a drip set up to slow release? Def keep me posted!Bro what's up??? Golf! Isn't golf something they put on TV for people who can't afford lithium . Sounds like a cool gig though .
Anyway I've been working on a little something that might help us with our grow areas and heat but I haven't talked about it with anyone. Now you know I love my calcium carbonate to spray on my plants, especially when it's hot since CaCO3 + H2O = CO2. Now I'm always looking for a cheap supply and was in a petstore and found they make a calcium supplement for lizards, it's a man made sand that's almost all CaCO3 with vitamins thrown in. So I bought a bag of it cause it's dirt cheap and started to fuck around with it. Now you got to get it powdery to make it spray-able like Cal-Carb. BTW, blenders are no good. A pistil and mortar are good since you don't need more than a tablespoon per gallon, but still a bit time consuming and, no, I'm not sacrificing my food processor to see how well that works . So I tried powderizing it with my blender a few times and one time I used some water. It worked great breaking up the sand, but then I thought "Well, when I make it this way, it's probably just releasing all the CO2 into the air.......... So now I'm wondering, does CaCO3 work because when you add H20 it releases CO2 into whatever medium it's in or is it bound to some other molecule and needs to physically touch the plant for the plant to absorb it? Because if it's being released on contact with water, which I'm pretty sure it is, why can't we take this stuff (LINKY) and put it in bowl of water with a bubbler in it and let the agitation release CO2 into the air from the sand disintegrating? You think something like that might work in order to make our areas more hospitable in the summer? Or have I been smoking way too much Black Widow without you ?
I got nothing flowering for the first time in nearly 2 years and it's because of the summer heat. Everything comes out airy and hairy during the summer, and I'm not burning through cash to run an AC. I really would love this to work because a tank is a no go. Fuck bags, candles, dogs running on a treadmill, or whatever. I usually don't buy into the quick CO2 game but something like this could work I bet. What do you think good sir?
FORE!
If you don't have a Prime membership,get one it's well worth it.Here's what I'm trying to replace:
$35.00 for 6 ounces! BASTARDS!
Lol.................over 105F problems arise, still will produce though............try 110+(highs) for three weeks, ha I fucked these girls so bad........oh wellLOL, Dude you know you can bust my balls all day long.
San Pelligrino! I get the San, the plants get Shop-Rite (.99). Naww I've never done that. I'm just looking for something that doesn't involve a tank and costs $$$. I mean I live in an area with high CO2 content, but these 200, 250 dollar a month e-bills for running AC is just wrong. It's so weird I got nothing flowering for the first time in years. If I can survive one more month (102F today!!!!!), then I'll put the AC on for the Cup comp. Got 5 Critical Mass and 2 Black Widow going and they're barely growing. Fuckin heat!
And dude I told you, Juan, and Jose that the roaches in the KIA's ashtrays were yours. Now if you're not too busy, can you pick up that piece of paper over buy the 18th green. FORE!!!!!!
Lucky you..............but the winter a'int so dandy right??????or do you use auto's in the winter???? I had no time for tricks/labor intensive cooling DIY systems for this grow.Ice packs at rootzone level but fuck knows how fast you`d have to change them in that kinda heat jeeze good old england rarely cracks over 30 here ever lol
Yeah sure..............try that ThaiThanks for the help everyone. Maybe I should grow Thai weed in the summer? 6 months of flowering right? LOL Fuck that!
