Live Stoner Chat Sanctuary

Oh sniper yeah..it is Horrendous..and apparently there is a bidding war going on to own it...:no:

It looks worse front on coz it does look quite human-y..

Great minds dear,
I have two Jasmine intertwined with the Bouganvillia's and a Wisteria for higher up as I love the hanging blooms.

I have the Wisteria to go down too..:grin:..I just haven't figured out Where yet..
 
Meanwhile back @ the Ranch..:grin:

It is wet and bloody miserable...we ended up staying an hour for the dogs to have a run around..then come home early.

Hubby says..is there anything you want to do then...?..I said how about going to the garden centre...:dunno:..never expecting him to say Aye.

When we got there they had new bare root stock in...."pher Wiggle"..so I have half of my grown your Own Fruit Orchard..Most of my Wish List.

I have a standard orange and lemon tree on order..

Then today I got a purple fig and yellow fig...and a pomegranate..they were 5.90 euros each..

White grape and black grape 3 euros each...a young olive tree for 5.20 euros..and a young bay tree sapling for 2.50 euros...

It may take a season or two for them to grow..but they suit my pocket..Best of all..All the Leaves can be used in my 50 variety supplement..Bargain...


All I'm Missing now is a Lime and an avocado...and I have my full Wish list.
Although once I find which season my Orange fruits..a few more different season one will be added.

A glass of fresh orange every morning seems the least I should aim for...:coffee2:...I'll need it to take the taste of the aloe vera away...

:crying:

It might do you the World of Good..but I don't like the Taste...

A new invention by two Australian beekeepers is claimed to be able to siphon honey straight from a beehive without opening the lid or disturbing the bees inside. When a tap attached to a specifically developed honeycomb "Flow" frame within the hive is opened, the bee-formed cells are split slightly open inside the comb, thereby allowing channels to form through which the honey flows down to a sealed trough and out of the hive straight into collecting jars. All the while, the bees are virtually undisturbed on the surface of the comb.


Created by father and son team, Stuart and Cedar Anderson, the Flow frames are special beehive frames to which already partly formed honeycomb cells are attached. Once the frames are fitted inside a conventional apiarist’s bee box, the bees inside finish building the comb with their own wax then proceed to top up the cells with honey that they produce before capping the cells in the usual manner.
Unbeknownst to the bees, however, these frames are actually made in two halves, so that when the combination splitter/tap is turned on, the contents inside of the cells are simply allowed to flow out without having to remove the wax-seals. When the honey has finished draining into the collection jars – which takes anywhere from 20 minutes to two hours, depending on the temperature and viscosity of the honey – the tap is turned back to its original position, the bees chew through the wax seals, and once more fill the cells with honey.
The only modification required to the bee box itself is the cutting and fitting of two access doors in the sides of the structure. These serve two purposes: allowing access to the working slots and honey pipe outlets, and providing a unique view into the workings of the hive itself. This also means that the bees can be watched turning nectar into honey, show when each comb is full, and allow the keeper to check on the health of the bees without opening the lid of the hive.
In addition to a reduction in heavy lifting of lids and frames, the creators also claim that their invention will help ensure healthier bees and bee colonies. This is because the hives are not regularly undone and dragged apart to harvest the honey in the usual fashion. As a result, the bees remain comparatively undisturbed, which means that they experience much less overall stress. Given the worldwide decline in bee populations, this can only be a good thing.
According to many apiarists – including those behind other bee hive concepts intended to reduce beehive stress stress – a less-anxious colony is a much healthier and happier one. Not having to open the hive also reduces the risk of introducing disease or squashing any bees that get in the way when the frames are pulled out.
The creators have built, tested, and modified their idea over many years and, for the past three years, have also been trialling their device with beekeepers in Australia, America and Canada. Now they are looking to bring their invention to market, and have opted to launch a Kickstarter campaign to crowdfund it. With an official launch of the Flow hive aimed for the 23rd of February, the inventors are hoping to get the project off the ground and start manufacturing and delivering within the next four months.
Prices and confirmed deliveries have yet to be announced, but the creators promise these will be listed when their Kickstarter project is launched.
The short video below shows the creators explaining and demonstrating their invention.

That is a fantastic idea, fresh extras healty honey on a tap, gotta love those crazy Aussies and their super ideas.

Wild Lettece update is in for now and this will be the last one, it for sure shows potential but with the extracts i have made it does just not quite get you there, it is still either the extract or my ROA, after doing 5gr a couple of nights ago (that should have had me in hospital) a slightly relaxed but not really sleepy affect, but from what i have seen from people doing it before that should have had me in a state of paralysis, as a small pea sized amountd should be suffcient, for a full blown knock you off effect.

Well out of Canna, Wild Lettuce failed so is back onto my good friends clonazepam, 2mg taken before bed last night and slept very well, have parachuted a 2mg crushed about 1 hour ago and now just topped it off with 4mg sub lingual, looks like this will be my sleep diet for the next 5 weeks, until my baby is ready to harvest.

Keep on enjonying the raunch and keep up the amazinf work.
