I watched the entire show on the 101 and sure miss it now. Wish it had lasted longer. Nice that they are re-playing it all again on NBC for those that missed it on the other channels. It was a good one.

Cooler night on Monday...

ah, yes, of course, it is the weather that's wrong, it's absolutely wonky. (Don't get me started on global warming!) I'm still adjusting to my "new" zone in Southeastern Indiana which is acting like a 6 or 7 but is technically 5b. I was still picking tomatoes in November last year...and that's WRONG. Coming from Michigan, I grew up understanding that you didn't put tomatoes out until Memorial Day. I put some cherries in on April 21 in a sheltered spot and they're doing great.

What's for dinner Friday?

Glenda, glad you got your Mexican "fix". How many more PT sessions? Shirley, Harry'd be so happy if I made deviled eggs. It's just not something I think about making very often. Your turkey/gravy sounds sooo good. Linda, I was just thinking about pancakes this afternoon. It may be our dinner tomorrow night. Susan, that salad looks so fresh and cool. Those radishes are beautiful--did you grow them? I haven't seen any in our stores that look that good. Jas, I saw we both started this at the same time. What are the odds of that happening? Thanks for starting it. Usually we are running errands/shopping on Friday. I looked at your salad dressing recipe and it sounds very much like one my mother made years ago, so I c/p'd it. Sure hope it is the same--no one in the family seems to have her recipe and it was so good on tomatoes. Phyllis, have you cooled off any up there? Your dinner sounds like you're celebrating a special occasion--?? Bet it was sure good!

No it is not pathetic....that was when you had the LED light on them. J/K!!! They look healthy, sometimes lettuce can be finnaky. I'm guessing the rockwool cubes stay pretty much wet...and thats possibly part of your problem. I am not a fan of rockwool if you cant tell lol. Roots do not get near enough oxygen in a saturated rockwool cube, can remain wet for days, and to me there is too much salt retention in rockwool for lettuce. Yes lighting has alot to do with plant growth. Recommended Lumens pr sq ft is 3k, anything up to 10k can be beneficial. I actually changed my big CFL on my lettuce to 23w/1600lumen bulbs and hardly noticed a difference. Nutrient strength and water temp also have a ton to do with growth rate. If you up your ppm just a touch too much and youll lockout some micros and stunt plants for days/weeks. Thats where rockwool builds salts and retains nutrients and tends to fudge up a bit. Seems to me that by retaining these salts it ups the TDS of the cube over time and burns plants/roots. 70 degree water seems to work the best for me, any lower and it seems plants grow slower, same with warmer and heat increases algae growth. What is the nutrient balance in your ferts? If you round the final numbers down it should work out to 3-2-4. Calcium should be close to same % as nitrogen and magnesium half of those. Im having amazing success with GH maxigro and it is 10-5-14 with 6 calcium, 2 magnesium, 3 sulfer. I do not have to add cal mag as my tap water runs 170ppm which a great part of it is cal/mag. Also testing cns17 which is close to identical nute # as maxigro

Friday rants and raves
Q
Comments (39)
Rant - Received a bill from the anesthesiologist company that dated back to DS2's birth almost two years ago. It was with our old insurance but is covered. For some reason they didn't respond or pay that so we received a bill. I got to play middle man calling back and forth trying to straighten everybody out. Four phone calls. Oh the joy. I think all is well now but I will be following up. Rant 2 - AT&T's live chat pisses me off. Wasted four hours of my life dealing with them (I'm not exaggerating) when we didn't have cell signal. It was becoming a regular thing for a while. They insisted it was our SIM cards (both of them and my neighbors. . . ) and not the towers. *eye roll* I finally agreed to go to the store and have them changed (for free) just so I could mark it off the list. I was still walking into the store when the girl confirmed, what I already knew, a tower was down in my area. Grr. That's the really condensed story. I filled our my customer survey for the chat. Rave - DS1 finished his swimming lessons yesterday and before being the last one out of the water he asked the helpers/guards if he could go down the large water slide. He can't swim yet. They agreed and he ended up going twice. One helped him up the stairs and two waited at the bottom to grab him after he went in. He was so happy! In general I found all those kids (teens/helpers/guards) to be very encouraging and kind to all the kids the two weeks they had lessons. Side note - The pool isn't open during lessons and all the other kids and parents were gone before the sliding took place. The instructor was fine with it. She taught me how to swim and did all my trainings and certifications so we were finishing a catch up. Rave 2 - Thought were were going to have to replace our water softener but all is well.

It already aired on Direct TV. Direct TV and NBC had a partnership in producing the last season of Friday Night Lights. its one of my favorite shows.

It is new to NBC....Its already available on DVD. I'm looking forward to watching it.

From a quick google:

"Published on Apr 15, 2011 10:36AM 0 Comments
Television's best family series, Friday Night Lights (7 p.m., NBC/Ch. 5), returns to broadcast television for its fifth and final season. And the East Dillon Lions are making some noise.
Let's just say that they aren't going to go 2-8 again this season.
This 13-episode season of "FNL" has already aired on DirecTV, and it's already out on DVD. (That has to be a first for a show on a broadcast network.) If you haven't seen it, however, this is must-see TV.
It continues to portray the most realistic family on TV. That doesn't mean they're perfect - Julie (Amy Teegarden) gets herself in waaaay over her head with some really stupid behavior when she goes off to college.
And the marriage of Coach Eric Taylor (Kyle Chandler) and Tammy (Connie Britton) looks like real life. Because it's not perfect, either.
But they're amazing people who not only clearly love each other but love what they do and the kids they work with.
For those of you who haven't seen Season 5 yet, I don't want to give too much away. Except to assure you that, when the final episode airs, it won't leave you hanging. It will give you closure.
And it just might make you cry. "

it is new to NBC only, it has aired fully on the 101 and has completed its run. It is done, I wish it was not done I loved the series.

NBC has acquired it from Direct tv so it is the replay of the series which has already played there.

same as Damages which is a replay of the original series from another channel and Burn Notice. It is interesting that the big 3 networks are picking up these series from the lesser known channels. But they are all great shows.
