Wow 30 foot waves I demand pics bro . It took about 10 days to sprout and I had two pop with helmet heads. Thinking I stuffed them do deep in the sponge. One was a yaki blue which I really like the looks of. Added a few more seeds. The cumari has shown no hooks so I added a few more seeds to the sponge. If I know you within a few days you will have hooks .

Those kids are coming along great Paul! Definitely interested to see how the aerogarden works for ya. Holy 30ft waves! I don't think I can really imagine that. The biggest I've been in is about 15ft on a fishing trip.

Wow some storm brewing your way!

Promise it won't come visit us down here...

Yes, we want pics!

… We are heading to the Oregon Coast for the weekend - should be
spectacular storms brewing. Last nights news said possibly 30' (a
shade less than 10m) waves sometime today and overnight to tomorrow.
Will try to grab a pic or two. Wind gusts to 70mph (112kph) are possible,
so it may be dicey. ... ...

[SIZE=12pt]Why do I keep hearing Surfin’ Safari ♪ ♫ ♪ ♫ ♪ in my head … [/SIZE]Hab fun at the beach, hope you take a big wave gun, I would love to join you in dat line up = ) Biggest waves we got over in Hawaii were only 20’ faces and that was a blast, so I envy your trip but I’m sure that water is too cold for dis Caribbean ~~boy~~ old mon, lol

Hab a great weekend \o/

HillBilly Jeff · Jan 11, 2014

Enjoy your weekend!!! Try to get some fishing in!!!

maximumcapsicum · Jan 11, 2014

Good luck Paul! Glad to see the grow is coming together! I am considering an aerogarden next month... will see if I hit some other goals first.

Happy growing!

Wow,about time I caught up,very nice looking greenhouse.
Your plants look great,can't wait to see how it goes in summer

stickman · Jan 12, 2014

Nice pics of first round seedlings, command central and the new Aerogarden Paul! Stay safe if you go to the beach... rips are not fun if you get caught in them, though the fishing around their edges is excellent.

Have a swell (pun intended) time Paul .. Sounds like the perfect time to get out your camera and take some storm shots.

Turned out to be a bust, my friend. Peak of storm not
as bad as might have been, and happened during the
night! Oh well.

Thanks for the news on the aero, Jamie. Sorry to disappoint,
the weather gods just didn't cooperate this weekend. I didn't
even take my camera out of the bag!

The Jiffy pellets are working their magic; came home to
some Bhut Jolokia Chocolate and 7 Pot Barrakapore #2
sprouts, and another Congo Trinidad Yellow or two!

15' is pretty darn respectable!

Again, sorry to disappoint - you don't need to worry about
this one. We had 1.2" of rain at our house from Saturday
through Sunday, but at the coast it turned out to be a weak
sister!

Thanks for the vote of confidence, brothah!

The PNW surf is too cold for just about anybody! Most of the
boarders here wear wet suits, or even dry suits in the winter.
We're darn lucky to get 10' foot breakers except on the rare
occasion! We had a great time at the coast hanging out with
friends there. Just no surf shots to be had.

Hope your weekend was a good one.

Thanks, Jeff. Most of my fishing has been meadow
stream and river fly fishing. Never tried my hand at
surf casting.

Hey, thanks, Adam! We'll see how good the aerogarden
is. Hope I get some nice results to show ya!

Not only was it a safe weekend, but a boring one as far
as storm surf watching goes. Maybe next time!

Thanks, Jason, we had a great time hanging out with
friends we've known for 40 years. there will be other storms!

Surfing in weather cold enough to have to wear a suit just doesn't sound like fun to me. I guess some sharks like their steak slightly chilled.

I'll admit it was pretty damn scary for some of it even in a 32' boat!

That's great! It's always nice to come home to a surprise like that. Glad to hear you had a good time with some old friends on your trip.

Too funny, Tristen, but I appreciate the good thoughts!
Looking forward to the Birdseye, but i forgot the what
the appellation HTM means

Thank you, Jeff and Penny, I may need it! Hope there is
something worthwhile for you to see!

That is so true, Jeff. And always several projects going on at once!

Here it is in all it's glory. My 'Command Central'

Too many gadgets, my friend! I keep trying to get
rid of stuff, but it just doesn't seem to work!

I'm with you, my friend! I like the warm water
and sun when I get wet!

Not fond of sharks, though

Dude! That's half of the boat length.
No wonder it was scary for a few minutes!

It doesn't work that way in my house. When my wife wants me back upstairs, she just stands in the workshop door and stares at me. After a little while I get the hint. "Yes dear, did you need something?"

Nice shop Paul and there is never too many gadgets.

rebelgrower3 · Jan 14, 2014

If i had a spot like that I'd never see anyone. I'd make it like the bat cave with a secret entrance and exit.

Hey, Tristen, that sounds great!
Thank you in advance, my friend!
I'll keep an eye peeled.

Hope you are back on even keel now; last visit to your
glog looked like you were making progress :party:

Amazing how effective non verbal communication can be

Thanks, Jeff. I feel fortunate to have enough
room for a work space and grow shelf in the
garage. I'm a lucky guy!
