We had a party at my place with Kat, Serenity, Jbb, Got2Envy, and spouses! We decided you were going to host the next one and buy us all plane tickets!

Any more rastas and "rainbow" birdsnest? I'm in upstate NY. Any idea on shipping to 12158?

 

I have a 9 polyp rasta frag available. $90 plus shipping. Either $12.35 for USPS Priority flat rate shipping, or $39.95 for USPS Express.

 

I have a ton of that fancy birdnest. It'll be freshly cut, so I'll add an extra inch to however much you want, to allow for potential die off from the fragging.

I'm selling my frags to raise money for lunch, and you think I'm buying plane tickets? You crazy, mon!

I can bring you lunch! Wife makes great cheesecake!

 

Cheesecake? Hmmm...

 

Just think, with the tank cleaned out we could swim a mermaid in there for you.

 

Speaking of mermaids-

Notes- Plants have been heavily trimmed to stunt their growth due to grow room (closet) constraints. Red (660nm) LEDs were flashing up until a week ago, likely due to a loose wire. Unfortunately, this experiment is going on half way across the country, so I couldn't troubleshoot the fixture problem myself. Ambient temperatures had been running "a little too low" according to my farmer, until the 660's were fixed to add additional heat. High speed vent designed to maintain proper temps under MH/HPS has been removed. Total wattage of the operation has been reduced by roughly 500 watts (66%).

New business venture?

 

Nah, I just wanted to prove it could be done. All this "LEDs can't grow (insert photosynthetic organism)" is now proven entirely false by my own experiences.

I would imagine evil clusters would win B)

 

 

Define "win".

 

Is that medicinal? ;)

 

Is it medicinal? In a legal sense, that depends on the state. It's a personal crop used to treat severe PTSD for a buddy of mine that I served in combat with. His legal, Veterans Affairs supplied treatment is a variety of powerful pills that come with nasty side effects and the risk of addiction. In my opinion (and I'm no doctor), it's medicinal and his best option, at the moment.

And here I was ready with a witty response, something along the lines of "cause if not I've got chips and beer".

 

All the best to your friend - must be rough for him.

Define "win".

 

verb (used without object)

1. to finish first in a race, contest, or the like.

2. to succeed by striving or effort: He applied for a scholarship and won.

3. to gain the victory; overcome an adversary: The home team won.

verb (used with object)

4. to succeed in reaching (a place, condition, etc.), especially by great effort: They won the shore through a violent storm.

5. to get by effort, as through labor, competition, or conquest: He won his post after years of striving.

6. to gain (a prize, fame, etc.).

7. to be successful in (a game, battle, etc.).

8. to make (one's way), as by effort or ability.

 

 

lol.. there would be so much win :P

Okay, define the terms of the contest. Hah! (Which you can't do, since it's MY experiment. :P Double! :P )

Nice. Makes me want to put my grow tent back into use - but for basil or something :). I've got a cheap (~$200) ~200W Chinese LED pendant that I bought for hydroponics long ago. Once I setup a fuge, I may drop that over it and see how it works for macro algae. Worked well for my plants, until they died for other reasons.

I had two nice coffee plants that I was considering making little LED arrays for... Unfortunately, I treated them like my tank and ignored the crap out of them for a few weeks during my classes and they dried up. :(
