Full of shrimp & grits...... was so yummy! Laundry is done. Time for another toke & then it's hot tub time!

 

[Keef]

I told her she got to wait an hour after she eats before getting in hot tub cause she might have a cramp and die !

 

[umbra]

Grits aren't real common in NJ. My father apparently ate them whenever he could. It must be a southern thing. But you don't have scrapple or pork roll. Do you guys fry up corn meal mush?

 

[Keef]

Morning O.F.C. !-- Wake and Ache for me !--Got to work on that !

 

[yarddog]

Morning keef. I had a few puffs on the way to work this morning. Nice and hot for a few days here.

 

[Keef]

Yeah Dog gonna be hot here too !--- The pipe is helping me some !-- Got some weed eating to do today --Maybe !--- Dog U ever hear of fried cornmeal mush ? -- Maybe he talking about fried cornbread ? --- Ain't nobody called me Cornbread since I got out the Army !-- Fried mush ? --That even sounds nasty !-- I cook Southern --D.D. does the Creole thing !

 

[yarddog]

Mush?? I don't know. But I love some fried cornbread. With dried butterbean soup. Mmmm

Left one of the empty 2 inch baskets and collars out it's hole last night so had a little mess this morning !-- Had maybe a cup or 2 of water splashed out during the night !---Seen worse !-- and it's on a concrete floor !--Mop it up and move on !--- When I built my first aero boxes I had to be careful to make sure the lids didn't leak around the seam between the box and lit !--- Made messes all the time !--- Finally just went and got some silicone caulk and put a bead around the inside of the box lid !-- No more leaks !-- Had problems with my pumps getting knocked over inside the box because the spray manifold was top heavy !--- Used the same silicone caulk to glue the pump to a 12 inch by 12 inch ceramic tile !--- Now they stable !-- No plugged sprayers either since I found that 396 gph filtered pump !-- Gonna use 3 inch baskets and collars with my production boxes -- My system works !-- Now I gotta figure out an easy rack to fit the boxes to hold the light and a 4 inch webbing to help support the plants !-- Got to be easy to built and as few parts as possible cause I'll be building about 20 !--

my great grand mother made scrapple in houston texas, and i'm sure there are other things i ate growing up that most won't. i haven't had dandy loin greens in years.

 

[Keef]

What up Giggy ? ---
For any who don't know Giggy and I grew up not far from each other in the Piney Woods of East Texas !--We didn't know each other but I thought it was Cool bumping into someone like Giggy on a grow thread !

Hey I was back there messing with one of my boxes !--- It just occurred to me that These are gonna be " Plug and Play " Aero under LEDs systems !-- There's gonna be a demand for such a system when prohibition ends! -- I am not manufacturing them !!-- Anyone want to manufacture grow systems !-- Too much like work for me !-- Mine the miners in the Green Wave ? -

 

[Keef]

My Classic VH 1 music channel be jamming this morning !--Allman Brothers Band -- Melissa --- Neil Young -- Rocking in the Free World --- Eric Clapton -- Layla ----- Temple of the Dog --- Hunger (?)----
I think anther toke or 2 ?

 

[Keef]

Just thinking out loud but do U think I could use one of those gauges U stick on a propane bottle to tell U how much gas U got left on the outside of my boxes to tell me my water level without having to open the box and look? ---

 

[umbra]

a simple float valve will do that

 

[Keef]

Umbra if they were to be hooked up to a water source that would be great but they free standing and I'm planning on 20 !--- I'll have a nute water hose to top them off ! -- Last resort is a simple dip stick !-- It's a pain to have to pH the boxes I got but I can't have 20 plus the 6 in veg and have a pH meter for each box either !

 

[Keef]

This is what is inside my boxes !-- Trying to use the KISS rule !-- Keep It Simple Stupid ! Only thing I would change is not drilling all the squares !

Drill and caulk the lid -- Glue pump to tile -- Make PVC spray manifold drill and screw in micro sprayers !--Add bubbler stone put baskets and collars in holes !---Done !

This is what I use to watch water level, super easy. Drill hole, insert grommet, insert elbow, cut length of 1/2 blue tube, fill, mark low level fill more mark level of high lvl. Never guess again. Also rotates down to empty. Peace
