So I know some of you guys use water beads as desiccant for seeds.

I had a thought....

I wonder if you can use them for delivering nutrient solution.

Like, what if you could measure out an amount of nutrient solution and let the water beads suck it up, then know how much per bead, and then you could dose each plant with x number beads that will slowly release the nutrient solution over the soil.

I've been a heavy drinker the last 20 years. At one point I was drinking 3 handles of bourbon a week.

I rarely touch liquor anymore, and I'm down to a six pack or so a night, and I'm not drinking 3 or so nights a week. Working on increasing that.

I'm getting to where the hangover isn't worth the buzz the night before.

Sooner you stop the better my friend.

I was using about 30 Coors lights a day at one point, to try and stave off the PTSD symptoms. The best thing I ever did was stop… it was tough, but not impossible. Weed helped alot. You can do it too.

I never had issues with wanting to go back to it, but if I don’t control myself…. I’ll eat the fuck out of some ice cream… or any sweets really. So I stay clear away from that stuff as well, including sodas and energy drinks.

Small wonder he took one look at you and saw Sanctuary...

I think he realized I wasn’t afraid of him…


Thanks my friend..

The question is would they release the salts at the same pace as the water…..

Yeah, on nights I don't drink I have an uncontrollable sweet tooth. I usually end up buying a pint of Cherry Garcia.

And yes, weed helps. I do a few dabs on nights I don't drink and I drift right off to sleep.

I am working on cutting back. I went cold turkey about 18 months ago and ended up with gout really bad. Could barely walk. I was told that not only can beer cause gout, stopping heaving beer drinking can too.

Yeah, thats what was wondering.

I might try making some solution at a certain ppm, having some beads suck it up, then have them in another container and measure the ppms over there.

I tend to take things much too far….

...it's that 6th sense of sorts, reading the energy of a person...

Oh man, sugar can hit the same addiction/pleasure buttons for reals! Sadly, millions of diabetics can't be wrong...

Exactly.

Plus the dairy really affects my kidney disease. It’s the only thing my doctor restricts, besides soda.
