Julian Assange on the TPP: Secretive Deal Isn’t About Trade, But Corporate Control
_Cursive replied to _Cursive's topic in Chill Space
The only reason this kind of tyranny can happen is through the government. In a free society, who could possibly make the TPP go ahead, who would enforce it? Nobody. The government is a concept, it doesn't exist in objective reality. A tree exists, a forest doesn't, just a grouping of individual trees. The government is people, individuals that use force to get what they want. Until we have a free society, we will continue to get this violent monopoly of force via Statism. -

Hi! Does anyone have any seed of this to trade or sell please? Thanks!!
-
These guys do NOT know HOW to run a business. Finally after 3 months of waiting, my massive order of seeds arrived, great! Open the box and all the seeds are labeled "G1" "G2" "G3" Okay that's nice, he's disguised them, but there's no way I can tell what-is-what. "Please send me an EMail..." You didn't answer ANY EMails I sent you BEFORE I received my order!! And guess what, YOU"RE NOT ANSWERING THEM NOW!! FFFFFFFffffffuuuuuuuuuuu!!!!!. There is a re-direct email now saying his mail-box is full. FOR FUCKS SAKE.

Hey guys! So I thought I'd finally get on to posting my greenhouse I made. I decided to make one as I was sick of having to re-shore up my POS Bunning's one after heavy gales. So, staying true to my frugal traits, I was thinking "best size vs. cost analysis" for the build. Over here most lengths of timber are 4.8m long. I was thinking 2.4m, but for the area, it was a little too big. So I thought 1.6m lengths - that was I can get 3 cuts from one length. This method will suffice for the roof and flooring which will be assembled as solid pieces (if I have to move house). The floor is made from premium grade pine H4 150mm x 25mm that was left over from our house decking. Screwed down with stainless steel screws. The wall framing is also screwed, so I can disassemble it if need be. The framing is H3.2 rough sawn 75mm x 95mm all over. The grading of the roof slope is 2.2m sloping down to 2m at the rear. - I had to break away from the 1.6m for obvious reasons The roof is tinted UV resistant corrugated plastic. The walls, due to the cost of using plastic sheeting are only greenhouse plastic wrapping - 25m for $10 I think. I used a staple gun to apply it. Next is the shelving... Using L-brackets for shelving support. For the shelving I used H3.2 pine decking timber. 90mm x 20mm. The shelving will consist of 2 tiers. So... I am very pleased with it at this point As you can see I utilize all the horizontal space for shelving. Left over decking timber is used where I can I decided to use really bright Caribbean colours as a nice contrast, I think it's worked well.. The paint is a Resene High-gloss enamel for outdoor with extra anti-mold additive. The surface was primed, then sanded lightly with 180 grit, then 2x coats of top coat. And thus concludes my cactus abode of colour. Ha! Hope you enjoyed

^ That's great info! Thanks Watertrade I had thought about the foam corrugation filler, buuut I'm in Auckland and our Winters are tame at best Yeah it get's down to 1 Deg on occasion, but usually that doesn't last long. It's surprising how warm it gets in there, but your info much appreciated! The watering needs is a great idea too! I merely threw them up on there from the floor and haven't paid them much attention since

Hey guys! Thanks or the compliments! So regarding the ventilation, the corrugated roof has a natural ventilation due to the gaps in between the framing. That way I figured, I don't need to add in extra work. It's working so far! Come Summer I will merely leave the door open Where I have stapled it, if you look at the pics, I have the wrapping starting points from the door, where I have secured the starting points stapled internally, wrapped right around the framing and covered in staples. I have stapled ALL over the outside horizontal/vertical framework also. Now the wrap was only 2m wide, so I had to use a second layer over top. I over-lapped the second layer well and stapled it down A LOT, I'm not worried so far, we have had some high winds and I have been inside it - to check, and it stands up to those without a flinch (so far) :-D

Nope. Potassium. EDIT: Sorry, I did not read that properly. Potassium silicate would be the best for sure! http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3645691/

Slow release potassium; Sulphate of Potash can be used in late Autumn to prepare the plant for the coming cold (also applies for the Summer heat) to give it a better chance of protection as Potassium is associated with temperature control (among other major activities).

Hey guys! I have a few Cubensis prints for trade in a few days. If you're interested pm me with what you have on offer to trade I want to keep trading within NZ for now as it will be safer. Strain is unknown as we found the print and cleaned it up with multiple agar successions. Thanks

1. Non-aggression principle. (You shall not initiate the use of force against thy fellow man. Theft/Murder/Rape/Assault fall in to this) 2. Objectivism. If the senses cannot perceive it, and produce it tangibly where others can objectively perceive it, then it's subjective. 3. U.P.B - Universally Preferable Behaviour. https://freedomainradio.com/free/#upb - A rational proof of secular ethics. FREE BOOK(s) for all you socialists ;)

1. Stefan Molyneux - His U.P.B is revolutionary as a discipline in philosophy. He encompasses philosophy, psychology and politics to FINALLY cut through all the bullshit/contradictions that we call 'culture' in a way that is logically valid. His hours spent in philosophy are well surpassed 35,000 hours, (10,000 hours makes you an expert) which encompasses philosophers like Socrates, Ayn Rand, Murray Rothbard and Ludwig von Mises, Nietzsche, Immanuel Kant and many more. Ayn Rand's Objectivism is what we can all use in everyday life (sense data) philosophy. Subjectivism/Relativism/Determinism are shown as dangerous in society as there cannot be 'truth'. 2. Eckhart Tolle - Taught me a lot about being 'still' being aware of stillness and your thought paterns. 3. Alan Watts - A nice humourous look at life with some great paradoxical thinking. https://freedomainradio.com/free/#upb - FREE BOOK(s) on U.P.B - A rational proof of secular ethics. This is WELL worth reading if you want to finally get some logic on how we can prove, "WHY is murder wrong?" "WHY is theft wrong?" "How can we determine what is moral and immoral?" etc.

LMAO. This guy HAS to be a troll, it's too good!

I see lots of people wanting to get these seeds from you

Nice! Is Dragon Fruit stock better or the same as using Myrtillocactus for Aztekium/Ariocarpus?
-
Definitely!! Also it is pH neutral, contains Calcium and Sulphur. Calcium is not an earth stable element and is washed away readily especially in clay. Gypsum is seriously under rated for how great it makes your soil become. I use Lime & Dolomite (Magnesium) to encourage microbacterial growth and to sweeten the soil.

Astrophytum asterias variegata flowering. Perfect specimen. Looking for pollen!

Ah man! :( -
Fucking awesome!! That is SO tidy! :D That is THE NICEST Astro I have ever seen!! WOW. What is its heritage may I ask?
-
Oooh good to know! I think it does from memory. I didn't pay it much attention (for some unknown reason) when it was in flower. Are they self-fertile/same species fertile?
