There is a Lax strain out of BC Canada, says it smells of coffee, chocolate and hashish, was curious if there is a connection. I like the look of those Lax buds!It’s still a little bit green smelling … I wish was one of those kind of people that could identify aromas and label them. Usually I get bogged down into one word, adjectives for description.
Seeing more and more deer, some bucks little spikers
You know, I only started out with just a few seeds of those this year. I’m glad I was able to take that all the way through. Definitely gonna be some good smoke.
Southeastern Morocco's desert is among the most arid places in the world and rarely experiences rain in late summer.
The Moroccan government said two days of rainfall in September exceeded yearly averages in several areas that see less than 10 inches annually, including Tata, one of the areas hit hardest. In Tagounite, a village about 280 miles south of the capital, Rabat, more than 3.9 inches were recorded in a 24-hour period.
The storms left striking images of water gushing through the Saharan sands amid castles and desert flora. NASA satellites showed water rushing in to fill Lake Iriqui, a famous lake bed between Zagora and Tata that had been dry for 50 years.

According to NASA, such an occurrence is so rare in the region that a lake in Algeria, Sebkha el Melah, had only been filled six times from 2000-2021.
In desert communities frequented by tourists, 4x4s motored through the puddles and residents surveyed the scene in awe.
"It's been 30 to 50 years since we've had this much rain in such a short space of time," said Houssine Youabeb of Morocco's General Directorate of Meteorology.
Such rains, which meteorologists are calling an extratropical storm, may change the course of the region's weather in months and years to come as the air retains more moisture, causing more evaporation and drawing more storms, Youabeb said.

Six consecutive years of drought have posed challenges for much of Morocco, forcing farmers to leave fields fallow and cities and villages to ration water.
The bounty of rainfall will likely help refill the large groundwater aquifers beneath the desert that are relied upon to supply water in desert communities. The region's dammed reservoirs reported refilling at record rates throughout September. However, it's unclear how far September's rains will go toward alleviating drought.
Water gushing through the sands and oases left more than 20 dead in Morocco and Algeria and damaged farmers' harvests, forcing the government to allocate emergency relief funds, including in some areas affected by last year's earthquake.”
i love winter,i get to make fun of y'all cold dwellers while i'm in shorts and sandals all winter!

39 degrees this Morning. Rained steady for 2.5 days. 2" in the rain gauge. Looking at 7 days of great weather besides the nights in the 30's. Ordered heating oil. Ouch.
The lone plant that is ripening seeds is battered proving I pulled when I should. Herb is excellent and ripe seeds so it was a good season.
How's your arm Star?

Hurts & It’s slowing me down by an order of magnitude. Very frustrating. This kind of fracture does not require surgery just have to be kept in an immobilizer.
Same with my sternum. No surgery if it heals properly, which it hasn't yet. I'm doing my best to not lift or do anything at all to hurt it. Sucks out loud not being able to operate but dealing with it. Next apt for me is 11/11.
Hang in there, least the big work outside is done!

Here’s a something I learned with outdoor toys like lawn tractors, tillers and brush mowers… use to always put unleaded fuel in them until the carburetors got shellacked and wouldn’t run anymore…it took a small engine mechanic hours to fix them for me and told me that small engines like these cannot handle the unleaded fuel and told me to use nothing but high test (non-unleaded) in them…since changing to the premium fuel I haven’t had that problem in years
I got in the habit and I used exclusively is a 91 grade non-ethanol that’s the best I can get
NON-ETHANOL GAS FOR YOUR RECREATIONAL ACTIVITIES
What is Non-Ethanol Gas/Ethanol Free Gas?Non-Ethanol gasoline is a high-quality, premium gas that does not include added ethanol. Ethanol is a form of grain alcohol that is blended together with pure gasoline to be used in motor vehicles. Ethanol is made up of feedstocks that include sugarcane, wheat, corn, barley, other grains, and high starch/sugar crops.
Over 295 Stewart’s Locations are now offering Premium Non-Ethanol Gasoline. Premium Non-Ethanol Gas provides better performance and safer operations for classic cars and recreational vehicles such as snowmobiles, boats, and motorcycles, as well as snow blowers, lawnmowers, chainsaws, trimmers, and other similar tools. Click here to find the closest shop to you that carries Premium Non-Ethanol. Just enter your location, and apply the non-ethanol filter!
Benefits of Using Our Ethanol Free Gas:
- Higher energy content. More energy = More power
- Improved gas mileage (around 3-4%)
- No dependence on ethanol crops
- Significantly much less harm to engines as ethanol attracts water, which can lead to rust on the interior parts of an engine
- Ethanol can increase vapor pressure which can cause vapor lock in a vehicle’s carburetor
- Does not corrode the engine
- Increases expected life on smaller engines
- Less costly to produce
- Uses fewer fossil fuels
- Required for outdoor equipment because small engine equipment is not designed to handle high-ethanol based gasoline
- Preferable for older car engines
- Prevents costly repairs on outdoor power equipment**Always refer to your owner’s manual for the correct fuel to use
Many of our competitors and gas chains sell 90 Octane Non-Ethanol gasoline while Stewart’s sells 91 Octane PREMIUM Non-Ethanol. Generally, newer cars are recommended to run on higher octane levels. Our non-ethanol premium gas provides for optimum fuel efficiency, improved mileage performance, and is significantly less harsh on your engine. Fuel up at Stewart’s to give your engine the better gas it deserves and don’t forget to fuel yourself up with coffee, grab & go food, and of course ice cream!!
I also use this in all fuel that will sit through the Winter..
I can’t get non-unleaded
I bought some stabilizer
I started running all the gas out of my gear at the end of the season. You just have to have some starter fluid spray handy come springtime. Seems to have saved some of my sanity. The stihl equipment always clogs and I am using that canned jet fuel thats higher octane. Still had issues with a blower that was left for a few months with that and that stuff even has the stabilizer in it.
