Balls to the Wall grow, Riddleme Gets Serious

so "pay attention" so we will all be more prepared to grow from the experience

The point is that each and every living thing has a life, no matter how short.

And in that life are experiences and a purpose

a broken arm, a broken branch

a bee sting, a bug bite

it all makes us smarter and tougher

plants adapt, as we do, to that which is around us

in the end we each fulfil our purpose

and grow from the experience

there is no greater joy in this life than understanding and sharing it

Philosopher, poet, teacher..eh! Awesome dude! Great Analogy and Quote!

you guys are to kind, I was merely pointing out the obvious

wanted to show the effects of makin it rain to those that are lurkin, I know those of you that follow me are already doing this so you know how crazy they can grow

but it is monday morning, took the week 1 update pics on Sat morning (so 2 days ago) the plants will be ready for another rain tomorrow so raining every 3 days at this early age (gonna have me some monsters)

So I only took a pic of #2 and a group shot this morning will repost the same pics from Sat so you can compare

will you try to lower your light any? I remember that the lumen output was pretty high where it is now, just didn't know if you thought About lowering.

hell yea. that is quite a growth spurt riddle!
been lurking, lol. awesome philosophy!
but i been busy with my flowering room. think you could stop by my journal n see if you have ne ideas on efficient organized way to raise my clones closer to the lights. kinda stumped, think i just need someones else's opinion lol
but like i said, been lurking, there looking great man!

Will check it out tonight, have to go to work now

well another 1/2 inch of growth today while I was at work, they will get rain (plain water) again tomorrow morning and they are big enough now that it will start to get interesting as this rain/grow train pulls out of the station

#4 will get 1st rain tomorrow and should catch up pretty soon being just a couple behind

it is so much more fun to see after being at work then checking them several times a day (which I normally do not do, but did yesterday simply because I had turned the heater on)

gonna wait till Sat for more pics I believe they should double in size by then so should be worth the wait

Let's talk about dish soap

I made it rain this morning and I added a drop of Ivory liquid dish soap to the water, I do this every so often to keep the soil from compacting and forming dry pockets, here is a copy of a question I answered several weeks ago

you want a non-ionic dish soap such as ivory or palmalive for plants, which has many uses but as a wetting agent (surfactant) it either allows things to stick to the plant for prolonged benefit or aids in clearing dry pockets in soil

Anybody else know of other uses to share???

I have read it helps with some bugs, but nothing definitive.

used it outside in my garden for years, whiteflies,aphids etc... also a couple drops of olive oil helps too(bugs) just spray the mix on the plants and any critters you see... doesnt work on dogs or cats though
OH! make sure its not anti-bacterial dish soap!

So non-ionic & non-antibacterial, got it! And a splash of olive oil for taste!

I've been told that if you have spider mites you can spay you plant down with dish soap........since they are so small, the soap coats them so they can't move or breathe and which in turn kills em. Never tried it though, thankfully, never had mites, so if anyone's tried it, what happened?

How many of you like Metal music?

Some of you may or may not know that I play guitar (I have mentioned it here) I also write songs and sing and many moons ago I had a band. I decided to share this song with you (if your interested, of course) it was the first song I ever wrote and it is about being high

recorded live in 1983 by my old band, yes it is me singing and yes I wrote the lyrics and the music,,,,,,,,,,,and

if ya like this one, I'll share the best song I ever wrote

Why High- SoothSayer- 1983.mp3

enjoy

Ok, so I already got a PM asking for the best song I ever wrote, please keep in mind that IMHO I think it is the best, (I've written over 40 songs) so please let me know what "you" think?

these songs were recorded live a long time ago using a cheap cassette recorder so please forgive the "rawness" of them

Vicious Circle- SoothSayer- 1983.mp3

enjoy

dont have time to listen yet, but will in the am. but wow those songs have made a journey to end up at this site for us to listen to. they didnt have mp3's in 1983, remember folks...

thanks riddle for sharing this
