Morning OFC. How's everybody doing? I hope we're all healthy. It seems my family has recovered from whatever it is we've been dealing with and is back to normal. They're planning to shut down schools for the rest of the year and they've close all bars and restaurants too. You can get carry out but you aren't going in to sit down and eat.
I was thinking back and I can't recall having ever seen anything this serious. Do any of you? I was popped in 81. I'm pretty sure I've never seen a response like this.
There's a lot of anxiety out in the world. Everyone is either scared or to lackadaisical to be scared.
I'm really glad I did the shopping I did not. Ha! No family can laugh at me! I was right!

I really do hope you're all well. I miss stopping in everyday.
 
Good mornin ofc...all wet and cold out on the west side...looks like it’s here for at least a week...I guess we need the rain though...I shopping before the $hit hit the fan and bought a pack of tp and paper towels like I always do...glad I did too...so I’m stocked pretty well and I got family nearby and we help each other in times like this...I think we gonna be ok even if some things are hard to find...gas comin down I think I’ll go fill up the motorhome while it’s cheap in case I gotta go on the road at some point...the govn’r closed all the schools, restaurants and bars here too, I think we gonna see some speakeasy’s poppin up, people already showed they gonna have they’re alcohol and they like to drink it with other drinkers...doesn’t alcohol kill bugs???guess it sometimes makes for bad judgement too though...I’ll have mine at home like usual...

Walked in to have my late cracker break and its noon...what happened to the AM....guess I am old enough to have some missing time now without stares lol. Been at it doing yard and garden stuff...planted a bunch more items in cups...yellow zucchini..black beauty egg plants...spineless okra...and a early maturing tomato. Got a few green egg zucchini ready to go out in a day or so and more stuff popping up daily...I tend to spread my planting out in case of a disaster...if these warm temps hold I will get 2 planting seasons. I have some Ichiban egg plant seeds on the way here for Thursday Pic are green egg squash and a couple early girl tomatoes...potatoes marking the rows...and 3 BHN 1021 Hybrids tomatoes.

Good morning, talked to our kids today, both cashiers at busy stores. They are both ok. I worry. IF i already told you that forgive me.
So when i got a couple of clones from umbra it showed me just how bad my grow was, but a miracle happened. They took one look at the clones and said we too can look like that, and they do... Quick turn around. AND, i think all but one a girl. It is in the 40s here but sunny. I planted some impatience today. orange with purple centers. Stinky, i hope your roommate is doing ok and you too. I hope you all are doing well.
 
Quick easy CKN egg incubator ?-- I remember a light bulb and a dome don't I ?-- Dude across the street got yard birds - If he got a rooster I"m get some eggs !- Just thinking about an incubator 1st !-- Any suggestions for incubating half dozen maybe a dozen eggs ?

Edit :-- Nevermind the tractor supply sell chicks -- I hope they the kind that likes fermented corn ?

Need some copper tubing and some parts and pieces before I start cooking but the chicks are a good idea - Don't know how bad things will get for how long - I can have Broilers table ready in 8 weeks -- Eggs and CKN go a long way when it comes to feeding yourself-- Some veggies in the ground - still need garlic / onion and some herbs !--

CKNs eating fermented corn is not a problem!-- I'll have to work up to it !
 
gloman, what type of rooting powder or gel do you use?
Last time I didn't use any at all with the bubble cloner, just EM-1.
When I use soil I just used some off brand cloning powder.

Edit: I got 6 out of 7 1st try in the bubble cloner. My success rate in dirt is WAY less.
 
Our daughter called today, i told her sorry about her inheritance.... she said she was hoping it would take care of us in our old age, i think that is now.. This is some scary crazy times. I wish we had someone at the top who was smart. I went outside and sang to the neighborhood, no one yelled. lol.. It is sunny and COLD.
