I'm still playing catchup, but I wanted to post a tip I learned from Shane to control plant height in the grow station. Pizza boxes, we rarely throw one away..

Funny tyou mention that as it must of been the day after I jacked the middle shelf up with a few pizza boxes..Will try and get a pic of that up laters....Don't think you can see them in the pics after this post and I agree they work great for that particular job, glad I am not the only one.

Edit - Drop that PT like it's :hot:

Not sure if Devv was intenionally setting the PT up or not but hell of a play regardless /highfive

Devv · Feb 19, 2019

I swear I didn't double post, must be my crappy Internet.

OK I'm caught up!

Wow! Nice plants Matt! And U crazy

I've been there and done that :shh:

I think I'm @ 50-60 maters and the same for peppers; but many are for the wife. She's gotten into the pepper thang, but at a milder pace, so half are for her taste. And all the maters are mostly for canning; being I'm from Italian decent. I just gotta have the red sauce made from our maters.

Wishing you continued success!

Hopefully I can get on more often and even post in my glog...LOL..I'm about 15' from completing my 3rd round of broad forking the garden...yay!

Scott I absolutely loved that you used the term "maters"...3xs at that woot woot

And I truly appreciate when you guys take the time to look over my stuff and offer tips and advice, it really helps a newb like me out and gives me much needed confidence, and that alone is extremely helpful.

As for your glog and ones like it, they are extremely valuable and important to this community. Can't even track the time I have spent going through your guys stuff and I am sure many others do the same.

So to your sir and all the others who keep detailed logs of your stuff, I say Thank you and keep up the great work!!

EDIT - 500TH POST :dance:

I missed that tip. Can't find it. Maybe I worked too hard today.

Looking good Matt!

That's just my 0.026 Canadian

CDNmatt · Feb 20, 2019

LOL

Thanks Andy!!

So I thought this was pretty funny when I came across it last night - https://www.change.org/p/christian-moms-against-private-education-sell-montana-to-canada-for-1-trillion-to-eliminate-the-national-debt

But hey they got my vote eh

Walchit · Feb 20, 2019

We have too much debt and "Montana is useless. Just tell them it has beavers or something"

Do Canadians like beavers or what? Lol. I've never been to Montana, so you guys can have it.

CDNmatt · Feb 20, 2019

Alot of Eastern and Central Canada was founded on the back of the fur trade to which beaver skins were a very valuable commodity, to some extent some of the North US was doing the same thing at the time.

I guess because we stick stuff like that on our currency and educate about our heritage we are kinda stuck with the beaver thing.

Should assume it would be more to raise awareness aboot your national debt and poor Montana gets a shot to the pills to do so. Obviously one should never take something like these polls/petitions very seriously of course.

I thought Maple Syrup was your national currency [emoji7].
Here in Michigan Sault St Marie and Detroit( Fort Pontchartrain) was founded on fur trading[emoji106].

Congrats on the 500 posts [emoji106], here’s to many more [emoji106]x500.

CDNmatt · Feb 20, 2019

We need a beaver drowning in maple syrup by a hockey player saying sorry on our nickel perhaps just to meet the worlds Canadian stereotype's eh

500 sure came up fast..man I thought 100 was a big one for me...Just means I am pretty comfortable on here, mostly cause the people on this site make it very easy to do so.

Pepper related - I found a seller on Ebay who offered a 12-20 day shipping for free and it was $5US for 100 - 20x22's seedling bags.....So I bought 2 packs of them since I had a small credit as well to put towards them.

I will post the link when I get home cant figure out how to do it from my phone

PtMD989 · Feb 20, 2019

Hows about a hockey player ( Gordie Howe , Mr Hockey) , catching pike, with a cooler full of Molsons, fighting a polar bear on the Tooney, eh?
I think you are on to something with having hockey players on the currency [emoji106]

I should add that is mad respect for Gordie...though I am a mad Leaf fan so if we talkin his golden Era then maybe keon or conacher for me. Mind you they are all way before my time.

Deeew it...Dont be afraid to post whore in my thread Dee
But if you feel like you need to have an actual comment I have some pics for laters if you sit tight for an hour or so

DWB · Feb 20, 2019

When I saw Matt made his 500th post yesterday, I noticed I had 498 posts. I decided to add my milestone 500th post to his epic frozen northland semi-tundra grow log thread just under his 500th post.

Anybody else coming up on 500? Donate it nto brother Matt. It's gotta be better than a page topper.

Actual comment: I like Canadian Maple Leaf silver coins even though they don't display a beaver or a hockey player or even a Labatts ale.

Edit: Adding the proof.

internationalfish · Feb 20, 2019

Man, your list is completely ridiculous. Awesome, but ridiculous.

CDNmatt said:
Finally did some sorting last night and made an inventory of what I had on the go, as well got most of the smaller stuff to the top shelf and bigger to the middle which will help me keep the watering schedule more even, which was becoming a huge problem.

Took a few pics but they are absolutely terrible, no matter what angle it was put at I just could not get anyhting without the color streaks

Those are some great-looking leaves, in addition to apparently being in the presence of some sort of divine entity (it's the only way I can think of to account for the rays of holy light).

But if someone can achieve the combination page 500 page topper well, well that might just bring down the site!

Happy 500 DWB!

DWB · Feb 21, 2019

Indeed it would but someone would have to be mighty quick on the draw to post a 500th post page topper in this glog. High degree of difficulty :fireball:

IKR the rays are so weird...I was going to ask for some divine intervention after I got that list tallied up,perhaps that was it....... :think:

...Then I look over the list again........ :twisted:

....wrong kind

And a big high five to your 500th Dee...onto 1k we go!!

CDNmatt · Feb 21, 2019

I had some update pics I took late yesterday afternoon but decided to wait till after dinner to put them up, by the time I remembered they went up to the cloud which is not my thing, so will have to take a few more later this morning since it is watering day for the middle shelf.

Here is the link for the seedling bags I bought yesterday, it was 4.99US for the 20x22's and if anyone needs them it is 2.29US for the 14x15's. They are from China though but for me this seller offers a free upgraded shipping to Canada. Not sure if its better to the US or not
