Ticks completely freak me out too! Luckily they don’t hang out in the city, but when I go up into the cliffs of Palos Verdes it’s really brush like and you have to watch out for them!
Haha! @DiggySoze you’re like me! Spiders = heebie jeebies. Good thing @Ghandisflipflop didn’t chime in with pics of his terrifying ass tarantula. That thing really creeps me out. Shower spiders are the worst. Gotta keep one eye open in there and you’re all vulnerable and naked. Hate that! The only ones I let live in the house are daddy long legs.
@Calyxander you’d think they would come out with a vaccine for Lyme or something by now, in case one sucks on ya. They are quite an issue most places.
Okay, enough with the creepy crawlies. I have enough just looking at my leg. lol
Went and eagle eyed the jungle spice and DBHP def no balls. Because I am just the worrisome sort, I’ll watch them for a few more days, but if I’m looking at them correctly, I just see calyxs and little protruding white hairs. 98% sure they are girls.
You may think this is funny, but take a piece of raw potato (doesn’t need to be that big, just so it covers the “core”), and put it on the bite and secure with a bandaid. Leave it on for an hour or 2 and remove. Do this two or three times a day. It will draw out the puss out and dry it out. It may take a few days, but it works. When I get a boil, that has popped (there are other methods for ones that haven’t), I use this and within a few days, no boil. And it works on any thing similar that produces puss (like spider bites).
Nope. Don’t think it’s funny at all. I’ve heard of this before and it does work. As of today the last blister thing is gone so I won’t need to. Took the bandages off and letting them dry out now. Hope nobody looks at my leg while I’m out at the grocery store because it will surely put them off their bbq today. lol
@DiggySoze there are so many people lighting off unsafe and insane fireworks that the cops just drive through and make sure nobody blew off limbs. They don’t even try to stop it as it’s everybody. There are like 10 block parties going right now. The neighbor on the street behind me hasn’t stopped setting off mortars all day and it isn’t even dark yet. Since I’ve lived here, I have never even considered leaving my front yard on the 4th. It’s like 100 professional fireworks shows at the same time right above your head in every direction. The air is filled with sulphur clouds. Love it!
Are fireworks legal in Cali? They’re illegal in MA, but ten seconds over the border into New Hampshire there’s a fireworks store. You gotta hit it on the way into the state tho, because if it’s your last stop on the way out you will get pulled over. Lmfao
Yes and no. It depends on the city and if they are allowed it’s only the safe and sane ground fireworks they sell at the approved stands. My city has legal fireworks, but absolutely NO ONE abides by that. I’m assuming since we are so close to Mexico, my neighbors just smuggle the illegal type back when they visit relatives etc… I live in a very culturally diverse neighborhood with a very large Hispanic population like most of Cali. Also, I’m 99% sure that the neighbor on the next street that shares my back wall supplies the entire neighborhood. SSSH don’t tell anybody. lol
You will not find even safe and sane fireworks in the upper class neighborhoods around here though… My neighborhood although not dangerous per se is more seedier aka more pawn shops, porn stores and liquor stores if you get my drift. They are however trying to regentrify it.
FUN isn’t even legal here, so no, we get sparklers & silly “safe” things, pretty boring professional displays, and PLENTY of ordinance grade illegal stuff because of “diversity”/human nature.
Dog was going apeshit for hours & I was in Sonoma Co…
Looks like it’s time for a Cal/Mag drench per my soil test. I also need to trim down some of my Italian White Sunflowers that fell over. Guess I need to get over my spider paranoia, put on a hazmat suit and get back out there. lol
Cal/Mag drench complete. Also a BT spray on all vegging plants. Hope this keeps those baby caterpillers away. I lost the instruction book that came with it so I mixed it according to the spinosad directions. Hope it wasn’t too much. 2 oz to 1 gallon water.
Again, I really love the new sprayer. It works so well and with the long wand and continuous spray lock, I feel very confident that I have covered the whole plant. Much easier for me to lug around when I only need 1 gallon instead of the 3 it holds though. Next time I actually need more than a gallon, I think I will just mix a gallon at a time and refill as necessary. fyi a gallon covered all the cannabis plants though.
My boyfriend had some Jack Herer last night. It had been decades since I smoked it. Loved the high, made my head tingle, but hated the old school taste and smell tbh. Kinda reminded me of mexican dirt weed in that regard.
, let’s go back to business or I know someone who from now on will grow indoors only …
