    This seasons must have plant?

    I'm with you there. This will be the 2nd season for my cascade and chinook so i'm expecting them to explode this year. Not going to waste time on new rhizomes though. Hard to find growspots living in an apartment. You will love the fatalii! I just went through the last of my dried pods from last...

    beer What are you brewing this weekend?

    Can't brew what has not been brewed. It's not Saturday yet. :) Plus i haven't finalized a recipe or a mash schedule. Kind of gonna wing it and take notes. How does a gruit taste? when i was reading about them, it sounded kind of sketchy.

    beer The FineExampl Homebrew Project

    you're science is correct. the estimated FG is 1.033 and the etimated abv is 15.25%, but with the yeast i've chosen, which is a Trappist strain, it can handle the high gravity and attenuate nicely and get down to the projected gravity. If it doesn't, i have other tricks in my toolbox to achieve...

    judging by the artwork and font style, i'm betting late 60s to early 70s. think about it, when have you seen anything that acted like Teflon was new? The first Teflon coated frying pan was sold in 1961 as "The Happy Pan". Teflon was invented in the 1930s. Teflon 2 was probably just a better...

    soil STOOPID soil-less grow ix!

    Amen to ProMix! Since i first started this mess i was trial/error with prepack soil mix, miracle-crap, mixing my own blend of peat/vermiculite/perlite (worked okay), ProMix has won me over. It's cheap-ish and includes a wetting agent that is plant derived, so while it's not organic, it is...
