Calling out to DreadedHermie for a game of "stoner chess"

[DreadedHermie]

2XU ??

Don't get it...

Hey, topped up the nute solution for the tomater--added 3qt, with 12 drops of bleach. Let it sit out for 60-90 min to take the edge off a little, and no problems. Roots continue to grow, and are not even bleachy-white. More like a cream-color. The res / roots smell very fresh, not chemical. Sorta like radishes.

People seem to find using bleach like this horrifying for some reason. I wonder what they think they've been drinking?

[DreadedHermie]

You mean B and Q both covering my fiancetto-hole?

I guess you have to wait for me to catch up so we can get to mid-game.

P - QR4

I guess that didn't help much...:cool:

I wonder what/if they think.

You then said, (out of context), "they've been drinking."
No doubt!
These folks have never known the joy of "catchment water" or green swimming pools.
My Boy Scout training had us carry tincture of Iodine to disinfect standing water.
Now I'm wondering what cannabis would make of Iodine, or Bromine for that matter.
Crap!
Now I got more reading to do.

Toodles!

Off to bed I must trundle.
Mrs. 'zard is takin' her colon bowlin' tomorrow :asskick: and I get to drive, and point, and laugh.

No worry. they usually give Versed with Valium.
It's a better amnesiac then Jaegermeister.

Up hers, ;)
Weeze.

Hooray!

I was about to recount to some of my newly acquired skeptics the use of "water disinfectant tablets" that usta come with the little camping mess kits. Little tiny, soft white pills IF I am remembering them correctly. I remember hunting up some skanky pond water to test them out before my parental units (likewise not amused--recalling your magnetization experiment) interrupted my research. :(

What the heck were those things? That's another possibility for res maintenance.

This bleach is doing the trick. I'm just not sure how slowly it degrades in a dark bubblebucket. Chlorine added to a swimming pool will "cool off" within ~72 hours if there's sufficient sun, heat, and wind. Takes twice that long without.


5 drops per gallon wouldn't bring a growing funk problem under control.
10 drops per gallon worked, but was too strong for the plant.
(I'm probably going to have to do this in metric or these barleycorn measurements are gonna drive me nuts.)

Adding 12 drops (total) this top-up caused no problem.

That's all I know so far, but I'm zeroing in on it.


Time to check da BP, brah.
No go stupid on me now.

Funny you should mention. Arthritis flared up and my foot looks like Fred Flintstone. Very painful, although a harmless part of the recovery process. Can't walk right, though. Can't sleep either, and it's been hard to concentrate for 2 days now.

I can't find a pawn that can move to Q4. QB4 maybe? Or I screwed up the board again. All is well, otherwise. Fun playing with the buckets.

Best to the wife. :thumbsup:

[Weezard]

Looks like I betta go check my blood pressure too.
Meant to say Q - Q4!

<Sigh>
A sure sign of Bake-off-itis.:stoned:

I have your queen at K2.
Unless she can move like a knight, Q4's "difficult" as well...:postreadrulez:

Now. Let's get down to some serious;) chess larnin'

You play white.:D

No be mad.:giveflower:
I was kinda forkin' with you to get ya rattled.
All part o da game.

[DreadedHermie]

Okay...my last move took us to here:

[attachment=o229512]

Q - R7 just loses your queen. The king can capture ....


Oh, shit.

Can you believe I got this far and still didn't notice the redundant bishop?

Grrrr.

[DreadedHermie]

P - K4 :thumbsup:

[Weezard]

Kinda hard to see that pivotal bishop in your diagram.:D

She was not the key though. More of a supporting player.
The beginning of that combination was the center pawn advance.

This game will be even more fun.
'cause it is said;
"If you wish an interesting game, play P -K4.
If you wish to win, P - Q4"

So, P - K4 is my reply.
Took me a while.
:S5:(I'm a little high)
I'll play mo' betta dis game.
(At least, I'll try).

Musta left her in the imaginary garden. :D

Funny. Didn't notice I'd omitted that piece in the diagram, either. Musta growed a mental blind spot for it, by gum. Woulda been a Freudian slip, if there were anything Freudian about it. :detective1:

Black resigns in shame and chagrin.:o:(:mad:

Went back over this last debacle and watched my IQ steadily drop to well below room temperature.

That's actually very good news:thumbsup:.

The tanning booth is a GO!
Smoked Cogito for the second-last game.
Very ripped, but functional.

Started the last game with G13-BB indoors no UV.
Opening was peachy.
Switched to the 4 hour UV blasted G13-BB.

Fingers turned to wet ropes.
Dozens of typos, spent half my time editing and still getting it wrong.
Could not even add analysis notes.
(Feel like I let ya down.)

I'll label this batch "let's get stupid". :stoned:

It's a good painkiller, with a "Chloral Hydrate" back.
You could smoke this and watch daytime TV., grinning through the drool.]

This will have to serve as my excuse for that last mess of a game. Well, that and your quick grasp.:)

So, yes, short exposures to Sunlight just before chop does modify da high.:dance:
The trick seems to be over-ripening the girls to "all cloudy" under leds, then flashing all the caps at once with UV.
I'll try the 2 hour "tan" tonight.
Shooting for a happy medium 'tween zoom n thud.

Here's an Idea.
Now that you know the game.
How about appending a small tag to the post identifying the inebriant/s in effect at the time?:thumbsup:

It's all useful information, yah?

Hey Weezard,

Didn't know I'd have to look in on you're "stoner's chess" thread to find some of your positive results of UVb use.:D

Glad to see a little UVb may be making a difference getting things ripe.
That's what I had found.:thumbsup:

This is just chess chatter my friend.
Pre-liminary advances on hints n hopes.

Us ADHD types, tend toward extreme optimism when manic.
I'll try something just because I want it to work.
Good science requires detachment and redundancy, yah?
Hermie's willing to play gentle devil's advocate for me.

I'll post my conclusions, with pictures, in your thread when I can counter the swine-borne, slings n arrows with repeatable proof, yah?:thumbsup:

<Please ignore the following, Da poor 'zard jus' gotta>

I love to bounce thing off Hermie first.
There's a double profit in our play.
At organizing, I'm the worst.
Hermie he'ps me sit, and stay.

I He'p him fo' to build a light.
As a student? Very bright!
He do it right, make me proud.:thumbsup:
(Always make me laugh out loud.):S2:
Tell 'im sumpin', an' it sticks!
Sometimes, show old dog new tricks.

It's experience, I want from you.:cool:
An Open mind and a lot of time .
Equates to WISDOM,

In short, in your threads, I'm not writing, because I'm reading.

Watch'n 'n learn'n Weezard.
So some UV is good thing...
Maybe I can wheel my plant's one by one to a nearby greenhouse on a two wheel dolly. In good weather that is.

I suppose I can use those uv LED I have. More practical I thing now that fall, and soon winter, will be setting in.

Mrs P is still scratching her head why I am trying to grow in a closet when we hve 400 acres of farm. I tell her I like the challenge and she rubs the top of my head and just says I love you.

Anyone have the formula for sealing wax? (rolling stones song reference there).

M.P.

PS weez, I truly admire you for trying to correct your typing errors.
Perhaps my first harvest wasn't so bad after all...

[DreadedHermie]

Well, I'm still some pain and didn't bother to try to sleep. So my decision making may be flawed. But since I am not presently employed as an air-traffic controller, vaginal researcher or other high-liability post, I'm gonna bring out the big lady just to see how it goes.

I'm guessing this is earlier in the game than is normally wise, and that I may have to lose a tempo or two to keep her protected, if I can even manage that. So, Q - QR4

Hey if you had 10 or 12 dem 5w fars, would you put 'em on a small brick, or a short lightsicle? I'm wanting to build on an air-cooled aluminum channel platform, but a brick seems more versatile in terms of deployment.

Found some Al stock (common hardware) that's an "L" profile. Could mount addtl sinks behind each emitter and then join 2 L's to make a rectangular channel. Exhaust the channel with a case fan (maybe 2 x 40mm). Well, a lightsicle, without the control box.

Seems like 50-60W @7:35 would approximate the halogens people are playing with lately....

Same move eider way.
Just wanted ta know if I should call check.

[DreadedHermie]

Whoops. Hadda take a call. Stepped away for a sec.

You've still got a pawn at your K5, yes?

Which rook attempts this blasphemous (and yet strangely impossible) affront to my royal wiggery, as if it mootly matters?

On my end it says "20:16" which is correct (8:16pm here).

Last night posts you had made 30-45 mins earlier were appearing in correct order, later.

Got me.

So, is de diagram correct?

I re-iterate; "Quite!"

And the UV--was that natural sun, or a bub?

Supernatural sun, blub.

Reference my posterior fedora: check the post times. I didn't bump him-- I just gave him a little kiss while he was already at the top. I see very well what he's doing; if he can't goad someone into responding, he bumps the thread himself. (I reported the post a long time ago, but it'll be awhile before it's dealt with, I'm afraid.)

He'd like for me to respond and refuse indignantly to apologize. And, he's been helpful enough to suggest some topics we might argue about. Ain't gonna happen. I'm a little disappointed you think me so gullible. :D

I do think it was worthwhile reviewing his posts from the other forum, just because they show he is deliberately lying to this community. Of course, he doesn't care how mad everybody gets at him as long as Crunchypants sends him his $4.

I've used nicotine bombs in a commercial greenhouse before. Pretty impressive toxin--I even killed some tender plants accidentally with it. I could discuss that with him, but he'd like the exposure. He's been at this long enough to be well-rehearsed in the usual arguments. And he welcomes them--they cost him nothing, and always reel in a few dim fish. That's the game.

I just wanted to have his two sets of words along side each other. Now, about all this Kelvin nonsense...:eek:

Re: catchment water.

States of HI and Montana were helpful.

Chlorine bleach is the weapon of choice for maintaining residential catchment human drinking water supplies.

"Shock" range is 1-2 ppm. (It's a mild shock.)

Maintenance/prevention range is .2 -.5ppm. HI likes ~1 ppm.

I'd calculated 2ppm (11 drops per 2.7 gal res.) for my maintenance level.

[DreadedHermie]

It's starting to look to me like the primary effect of far-red is telling the plant its got lotsa nearby neighbors, and to stretch to outgrow them.

I'm seeing a lot of anecdotal evidence--and reasoning that I suspect is based on faulty premises in regard to the red / far-red connection.

This is from Physicsnole (old). Have you encountered any supporting studies? For one thing, is this talking about intiating flower, or maintaining it? Both?

I would like to believe this stuff. And Leadenjin must have a reason for offering 735's. But wanting to believe it may be clouding some judgements. What do you think?


With 735nm far-red/near-infrared emitters available then it's possible to flower cannabis with 15 hours 'daylight'. How? Why? Well, the plant senses that critical 12-hours-darkness that triggers flowering in cannabis because a critical amount of phytochrome-FR has slowly, naturally, reverted to phytochrome-R during the dark cycle. But during the 'day' 660nm red light converts the phyto-R into phyto-FR, while far-red 735nm light more slowly converts the phyto-FR back to phyto-R. So we run all lights for 15 hours, then run nothing but 735nm for another two hours and finally 7 hours darkness.- artificially driving much of the phyto-FR back to phyto-R without waiting 12 hours for the natural reversion- so you can actually flower with shorter nights.

[Weezard]

As it turned out, it's just not that simple.:(
The theory is sound.
The phytochrome conversion is fact.

Alas, it is but one of several triggers, so, in practice, this did not fly. It barely limped.
There's also a bio-clock involved, so gains from Far red are not as impressive as we hoped.
Some othe processes are involved that still take about 12 hours of darkness to complete.
Got a paper on it somewhere.
If it turns up, it's yours.
(Though I'm guessing that you will find it before I do.):stoned:

I suspect that L.E. is just responding to demand.

The hucksters, are slapping 735s, n skyfire orange, n umpty shades of white on their lights and they are all hardwired together. :wtf:
Almost useless, from my experiments.

The Far-reds need to be started just before lights out, and only need to run for 45 minutes or so to do a full conversion.

Still no gotta be useful to be marketable, yah.

It's a funny world.

26" X 8' clear Polycarbonate.
Flimsy, flat, panels.
Laid the sideways with an overlap.
Tied plastic rope loops through the cage, about 10" down both sides.
(Soft rope won't cut into the panels)
Then shoved a ridge "pole" up in the middle, to provide an even tension and bow the panels. for strength and run-off.
Don't need much slope, never snows.
I try to design everything as a "one man", low-rent, greenest kine, labor free, construct.

Wiping up the drool around the board...
Goodness! Thought it would be an interesting experiment to try to wolf down a whole joint of my one-hit wonder couchlock. Made me stoopid! "Uplifting, inspirational"... not hardly. Great for pain and insomnia, which is a blessing for me. Not a suitable recreational strain, apparently.

Starting back with post #710's diagram:

[attachment=o230240]

We've played:

W.: B - Q3
DH: N x P
W.: B x P
DH: N - K6 (first time through I had moved P-Q5 (Post#715))
W.: K - KB2
DH: N - KB4 (I miscalled that one as N-Q4 --figgered you caught it; I have a pawn at Q4 already)
W.: K - KB3
DH: N - K2
W.: B - Q3
DH: N - QB3

Which takes us to this:

[attachment=o230241]

If that looks right to you, your latest move ( K - K4) would put you in check.

Please take a look and substitute an alternate reality as desired. I was liking my pawn being a square closer to pay dirt, but he's also useful at Q4 in frustrating your king. So, whatever.

I apologize for my incompetence. Reconstructing our play over the last few moves has been instructional in its own way, though. Bear with me and I'll try to give you a decent game one of these months...Hermie

Wiping up the drool around the board...
Goodness! Thought it would be an interesting experiment to try to wolf down a whole joint of my one-hit wonder couchlock. Made me stoopid! "Uplifting, inspirational"... not hardly. Great for pain and insomnia, which is a blessing for me. Not a suitable recreational strain, apparently.

Starting back with post #710's diagram:

We've played:

W.: B - Q3
DH: N x P
W.: B x P
DH: N - K6 (first time through I had moved P-Q5 (Post#715))
W.: K - KB2
DH: N - KB4 (I miscalled that one as N-Q4 --figgered you caught it; I have a pawn at Q4 already)
W.: K - KB3
DH: N - K2
W.: B - Q3
DH: N - QB3

Which takes us to this:

Yup I still had the move from post 715 in dere.
So, looks good now.
King gonna stay outta dere.
And I move to K3 instead.
Now black's problem is what to move and where.

Don't beat yourself up, it's STONER chess,yah?
Just list inebriants.

Inerbiants for last night: G13/BB with 6 hour of sun.
Calling it FunderFudd cause it turns me into an Elmer.:S5:

Think I'll stick to "donkeydick" and "Cogito" for the end game.

Aloha.

Snob. :D

My level of play demands cough syrup and tequila shooters. :thumbsup:

Bottoms up,

N - QN5

Theoretical question:
Can you win, if all ya have left is your king?
Perhaps by creating an "all moves lose" situation? (I know there's a word for that...zwiegclang or suppin'..)

I guess a king can't really threaten the other king. They must be lawyers.

B - KR2

If you lose the pawn, the game is over.

That li'l "O. B. Juan Kanobe" is your only chance.:D

Damn the lawyers, full speed ahead!
Weeze.

[DreadedHermie]

(Your) KR2 is a black square (?)

OK make it your KR2:)

[DreadedHermie]

OK. Wasn't being a wise-ass, not sure I understand that move (yet). ;)

[attachment=o230256]

I guess it does cramp my style a bit.

N - QB3

Simple, really.

Bishop can watch from there with less danger of getting forked.
And then there's
B - KKN8 check!

A great lesson here!
If a move seems senseless, look to the future it creates.

Moving to either safe square is a disaster
Black will take the pawn and threaten the knight.
Best black can hope for now, is a draw.

Sneaky little cleric, ain't he?

Weeze

Well, there's a lesser of evils.

K-Q2

you: B x P (?)

me: N - Q2

Green?
