cineater Posted October 3, 2020 Share Posted October 3, 2020 The Marsha thing will take a while to filter through the group. The difference between home and the garden is shade. The garden is full sun all the time and there is no where to sit. Plus I've got the cats. It's nicer at my place. My friend tells me Vanessa is posting a lot of stuff on instagram. She thinks it's of Axl's yard. Apparently he has a pretty cool yard. And possibly a piano he got from Elton John. Do you have to have instagram to look at what somebody posts? I got the burlap bags for the canna bulbs yesterday. I'm baging them up today and will probably count how many I have. Do you have a guess as to how many?

I dont have an insta, but it usually lets me scroll a bit of the first page before kickign me off. Id love to see this!!?? Is this back in Malibu then, or still the desert? Id think you have maye 65 canna bulbs? Whats your guess? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gordon Comstock Posted October 3, 2020 Share Posted October 3, 2020 I moved all my plants inside last week, and had to kill a few of them. My Devil's Tongue plant got fucked up, as did a couple of my Dulce peppers. My Sugar Rush plants are all flowering and starting to produce their first peppers though I crossed my Blueberry X Super Silver Haze weed plants with a Deep Purple strain, ended up with a little plant that's full of seeds and I can't wait to plant them Also got a couple Candy Cane peppers sprouting up, and I'm gonna germinate some Fish Pepper seeds soon too. They're very interesting pepper varieties both visually and flavour-wise, especially the fish peppers. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You were so off. I've seen them sell around town for $5 for the big ones. We sell them for $1 when we sell them. Some years we had so many, we gave them away. They were in the Yellowstone area a long time and are back in Malibu. Who knows if Axl was with them but pothead would certainly explain Axl Rose moving at a snail's pace and mulling over decisions. Have to get him on coffee. Great ideas followed by getting them done. I was at the gardens for a little while but it's cold and we got rained out. Had a long chat with Joe about organizing the group. Little does he know but we are making him president next year. The guy has vision. Doesn't hear worth a shit but he's calling for an overall plan and that we focus. Acknowledged I've been talking about this. With the two of us pushing for it, the others will join in. Mums are starting to open. Will send you a picture. The coleus cuttings are planted. Starting off with 18 of them. Edited October 4, 2020 by cineater Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cineater Posted October 4, 2020 Share Posted October 4, 2020 We are getting a frost tonight. Not a killing frost. We'll see who gets taken down. I brought in the geraniums and begonias last night. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But yeah, theres that pic of Axl in studio 'finishing up' UYI with his bng and weed. I think that 'finishing up' took a year iirc! Imagine if if CD cost 14 mil just because Axl had that real nice sticky icky?? Yeah, Axl needs to learn follow through! Hopefully that will be 2 president Joes next year then. But your Joe actually sounds qualified! lol. A man at the gardens acknowledged youd already been raising a point that he raised?!?! Im shocked!! Thats great. Those Mums look pretty! We'll see how many coleus you end up with! lol 2 hours ago, cineater said: We are getting a frost tonight. Not a killing frost. We'll see who gets taken down.

Im excited the Sugar Rush is doing so well - Im interested in trying that out next season myself! Are you gonna try your new strain indoors? Shoot, cant see the Candy Cane pic, but those stripes as the colour develops on the Fish Pepper looks so cool! I trust they dont taste fishy though? lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I trust they dont taste fishy though? lol Yea there was a solid week of smoke and haze followed by a solid week of cold and rain, and some plants really didn't like that. And pests really seemed to like the Devil's Tongue plant. I'll probably try a couple plants indoors, then a couple outdoors next year (both strains seem to do well outside) The fish pepper got its name because it was a common ingredient in shellfish dishes/sauces back in the 1800's and early 1900's, it kinda disappeared for a while then came back about 25~ years ago. The candy cane peppers have a white vertical stripe down the middle while they're growing, and they're basically sweet bell peppers when they're ripe. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cineater Posted October 4, 2020 Share Posted October 4, 2020 Spent 3 and half hours at the garden taking down the cockscomb. Looked good but it was going to seed and that stuff takes over. What is left of our leaf mulch is compost. Looks nice but I don't think it's going to protect the plant roots. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cockscomb - is that a Manscaping tool? I want to collect some dried leafs to have a supply to mix into my worm farm over the winter. Hey, I saw a woman wearing your ripped up jeans. But she was doing so for fashion! lol. Lined up for a chic art bar no less. You are a hip cat, Cin! Cant wait for my radish microgreens!!

First offer gets them! Should I cover my plants tonight or just be done? That is the question. I pretty happy with what I got done today at the garden. I'll see tomorrow at the garden what gets taken out tonight. While I was at the gardens I went to use the big pruners. They were rusty and hard to open. Hate when the tools aren't taken care of. They are in my trunk. I'll connect up with our tool doctor next week. Are you signed up for Art, Flowers and Urban Farms for Tuesday night?

Some exfoliating! I bet you could auction them to the ultra hip! Im glad you had a good day at the garden. You got the frost? Any casualties? Did you move stuff in? I take such good care of tools that it best that I dont know who mucks them up. I cant stand it! lol. Cool you have a tool dr. I actaully messed up a tool recently and was extremely mad at myself.

cineater Posted October 5, 2020 Share Posted October 5, 2020 Yep, I'm doing it. Looking for ideas for the butterfly. We got frost but doesn't look like anything got damaged. I'm putting out my grass seed today. I'm about a month late on that. Might go ahead and spray paint the lattice work if the wind dies down. Brian started putting up his haunted house. I'm guessing that means he's not putting up the fence. Damn, I would like a fence to hide his yard. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cineater Posted October 5, 2020 Share Posted October 5, 2020 (edited) Aw Beaker was so cute! I have good water pressure today. Will have to wait to paint. Wanted to give the new grass seed a good soaking. Got my volunteer hours entered for the garden. I'm at 522. Don't think I'm going to top last years 800.

They've matured and aren't earning interested any more. They were at 4%. They were right, 30 years ago I did not miss that money from my paycheck and today, I'm happy to see it has all grown up.

One time I just left a bowl of candy out, instead of dealing with a bunch of snotty kids. First kids stole the entire bowl Cashing a bond sounds good to me? Get that paper, Cin! And then again in 10 years. That'll be enough for the American Beauty box set! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cineater Posted October 6, 2020 Share Posted October 6, 2020 Oh you never leave a bowl out for the kids. It should be fun but those bonds are my secret stash of emergency money. Those can get me out of trouble. I don't enjoy putting them in my general savings. You probably already know I'm pretty tight fisted with the cash. The same way some people feel about their gun rights. They started back in 1976. I've never had to use them for an emergency so I guess that says something about not sucking as an adult. I have this plan of putting a plastic tent over the lattice work so the air airborne spray doesn't get on the house. I just have to not breath in too much of the spray. Little windy out there but where I'm spraying is protected. Excited to get this done and get my lights back up. I can leave the tent up when I water the new seed. I have a plan hopefully it works.

Never again will I leave a bowl out! This is your reward for your successful adulting!! Time to splurge! Maybe some GNR bikinis for you and Karen? i hope the wind doesnt mess with your painting.

My trigger finger is giving out. Had to go get 3 more cans of spray paint. I have running paint everywhere. Little tip, don't paint your latticework. Total pain in the ass or rather finger. Standing back it looks good. That money is symbolic of the year it comes from. Probably the worst year of my life. I was in a deep dark hole, over medicated on antidepressants, drinking again and a girl in trouble. I start working my way back out of it right about now but it takes me years. Like the money I built on the little bit there and today it's worth a lot more. It's the storm I'd rather forget. Should have listen to the song and left St Louis city of the blues then but it's all good now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glad it looks good though! Im glad you got out of that dark place. I hesitate to ask more about it, since you say its something youd rather forget? You are a strong person. What song is that about leaving ST Louis? My favorite folk singer has a song that she says is about needing to leave my town. But she says she didnt know it at the time when she wrote it. Her Dads response when hearing it was "you need to get out of there." Side note, I kinda think she once also wrote a song that was at least in part inspired by me and my ex!!

cineater Posted October 6, 2020 Share Posted October 6, 2020 Black Throated Wind, of course a Dead song. Yeah, nothing I care to talk about. Got the lattice work done. Looks good enough for me. Went up to the garden and grass seeded a big hole we filled in. Ran into Alex and got a call from Justin. Both of them looking for me. Again nothing I care to talk about. Class in a little bit.

cineater Posted October 6, 2020 Share Posted October 6, 2020 (edited) My fault, it's scheduled for tomorrow. Other way around. Yep lyric in the song: I left St. Louis, the City of Blues In the midst of a storm I'd rather forget I tried to pretend it came to an end 'Cause you weren't the woman I thought I once met I threw the geraniums and begonias back outside. The night temps are up for the next 2 weeks and they are easier to maintain outside. Edited October 7, 2020 by cineater Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
