7/13/2023 0 Comments Growing moso bamboo from seed![]() The very vigorous bamboo rhizomes (roots) of the bamboo plants grow constantly and let new shoots sprout - thus the entire Bambushain grows.Īt a great time, however, bamboo plants are blooming - and then there are the seeds. ![]() In contrast to most other plants, bamboo grows 'predominantly' vegetatively. If nothing has happened after three weeks, there is a chance the seeds didn’t germinate.īamboo plants in a garden are a real centerpiece, and while they may take some TLC, they can be grown from seeds by following the above process.īe careful about overwatering young seedlings, spend some time creating the right temperature for a seeding bed, and you will soon enough have a great crop of new bamboo seedlings greening up your garden.Bamboo is an extraordinary plant. When planting bamboo seeds at this depth, you will see the first green shoots break the surface of the soil after 1-3 weeks. If you plant them deeper, the seeds may not be able to grow towards the light, and if you plant them too shallow, they may dry out and spoil before fully germinating. Plant bamboo seeds at a depth of half an inch. This is the correct way to plant bamboo seeds. You will need to germinate the bamboo seeds by soaking them in lukewarm water, planting them in compost or peat, and then covering them with plastic or mulching to let the seeds grow. If the plants are still young during their first winter, you can pot them and move them indoors to help boost them during the cold season. Bamboo seeds require some protection, so add an inch of mulching to help keep them warm during chilly seasons. I prefer seeding and growing healthy bamboo plants indoors before I plant them outside as this ensures they have a greater chance of survival.įrequently Asked Questions about How to Plant Bamboo SeedsĬan you plant bamboo seeds directly in the ground?ĭepending on the weather zone you are in, you can plant bamboo seeds directly in the ground. When the bamboo seedlings I have cultivated indoors or in my hothouse have reached a height of about 12 inches, they are strong enough to plant outdoors if I haven’t done so already. ![]() Bamboo loves water, but the roots quickly rot, so having high-draining soil is essential. It is a great way to support the fragile root structure of the new seedlings.Įnsure your potting mix is high drainage by mixing in 50% mulching or bark chips. In a garden bed, you may need to clear out the bed and create a new prepared surface.Īlternatively, you can plant the seedlings in planting bags with the appropriate compost mix and then plant these in the garden bed. I like using a shallow 1.5-inch pot or tray to plant the new seedlings in as this gives them the highest chances at surviving. Sadly, bamboo seeds can be quite difficult to please, and some may simply rot in the ground or remain dormant.Īfter about a month, you should have some success and will have several bamboo shoots that are big enough to transplant. This is why I prefer to plant my bamboo seeds in pots, giving me the choice to bring them indoors once the weather gets cold.Īnother way to protect the seedlings is to add mulching over the last layer of compost as this will give the young shoots some protection against cold winds and early morning temperature drops.ĭo note though that not all bamboo seeds planted will germinate. Since you will be planting in early spring, there may be inclement weather or cold snaps, which can easily kill newly sprouted bamboo seeds.Īn untimely frost can undo all your efforts as the seeds can freeze and burst into the ground. If the top of the shoots touch anything they will die. Since the bamboo seedlings will be growing, you need to raise the plastic sheeting that covers them with bamboo sticks or a planting grid. Spray water on the ground rather or use a dropper to water the area around the new growth. The fresh green bamboo shoots are particularly fragile, and you should avoid watering them from the top of the shoot. The seeds don’t like dry soil, especially when they are fragile and have just begun germinating. Keep the soil damp, and spray when you notice it begins to dry out. However, if you don’t see any growth yet, just remain patient.Įach seed has its own timing, and digging them up will be more harmful than beneficial.ĭuring this time, you can continue to check the soil temperature, ensuring it remains at a nice warm 70-80℉ to ensure germination can take place. On average, you can expect to see growth around days 10-15. This is the hardest part: waiting! I am always so eager to see the new shoots break ground, but each bamboo species has its own growth rate. Place your seeds about a quarter-inch apart, cover with about an eighth of an inch of potting soil or compost, spray with water, and cover with plastic.Įnsure the soil is damp but not waterlogged. ![]() Step Three: Placing Seeds in the Growth Medium

Metal grate feeders offer more places for the air to circulate and won’t get moldy quite as fast. Plastic feeders restrict air circulation. It can also get clumpy and hard for finches to remove. That means that once moisture gets inside, the seed usually molds quickly. Keep The Feeders Dryįinch feeders usually have small openings. That means that you should clean out your finch feeders often. They also won’t eat moldy or rotten seed. Once nyjer’s black color starts to fade, finches won’t eat it.

7/13/2023 0 Comments Becoming a fighter pilot![]() "We're actually doing quite well," says Master Sgt. air force is actively recruiting new personnel, the air force doesn't have too much trouble finding people willing and able to become fighter pilots. About 190,000 enlisted personnel and 15,000 officers must be recruited each year to replace those who complete their commitment or retire. Armed Forces through the year 2006, the OOH says. "We currently have approximately 4,200 fighter pilots."Įmployment opportunities should be good in all branches of the U.S. Personnel Center, notes that in 1999 only about a third of air force pilots fly fighter planes. Judy Grojean, media relations chief at the U.S.A.F. Nearly 2,100 air force pilots are lieutenant commanders. Of these, 152 are second lieutenants, 1,288 are first lieutenants, 5,695 hold the rank of captain and another 3,539 are majors. Personnel Center reports that there are 12,772 pilots serving as of the end of August 1999. The Occupational Outlook Handbook (OOH) says there were about 110,000 civilian pilots in the U.S. There are also fighter pilots flying for the Marines and navy. A wing is comprised of about 144 fighter pilots, making the total number of fighter pilots approximately 2,600. The Facts In the United States, there are approximately 18 wings in the air force. Some field operations can keep a pilot away from their family for months at a time. In addition to working irregular hours, fighter pilots can be stationed in the same location or can be in the field. "Fly a mission, come back, eat, sleep, get up and fly another mission." "You just did the same thing everyday," says Milligan. "After flying you must have a 12-hour rest before flying again," says Milligan.ĭuring wartime, although still following flight regulations, work can be long. A fighter pilot is regulated by the number of hours they must spend on the ground in between flights. They train and learn new flight exercises. During peacetime, a fighter pilot usually works an eight to 10-hour day. We were stationed very close to North Korea and had to be ready."Ī fighter pilot has plenty of work to do while not at war. The same thing happened when I served in Korea. "During the Cold War in Europe the enemy was only 100 miles away - you were constantly on alert. However, the period of warning time can be less if closer to enemy lines. "If we're sitting at the breakfast table, we won't suddenly be asked to fly a mission," says Milligan. ![]() However, they'll be given a few days or even weeks notice before they have to pack up for war. "That's when I decided to get out, because without a lot of combat experience and a shrinking air force, I didn't think I would be able to achieve what I wanted," says Ron Milligan, a fighter pilot in California.įighter pilots are on call 24 hours per day. And with the end of the Cold War, American fighter bases scaled down their operations and closed or shrank air force bases. However, because of small conflicts existing around the world, there is still a need for fighter pilots. With the end of the Cold War, fighter pilots have been seeing less air time than they have in the past. "It's too early for any of the female fighter pilots who have started out to have retired. "We don't have any female pilots working for us," says Denise Jennings, who works for Air Combat, a civilian organization that hires retired fighter pilots. While many more men than women are fighter pilots, more women are joining the air force. That means hours and hours of training and air practice. In order to feel confident doing any of these missions, a fighter pilot must know how to operate the armament and fire control systems carried on an aircraft. They must be able to use navigation and communication systems, including some of the most advanced technology available in the field of aviation.Ĭarrying out a mission usually involves flying above ground troops to protect them with air strikes if they're in trouble, delivering bombs on target, or using flying tactics to defend your airspace. Frank Deker.įighter pilots have to know more than how to steer a plane. "These pilots are the only ones in their 'office' and have to make rapid decisions, as they have no others who have pertinent mission information," says Capt. Working Conditionsįighter pilots fly high-performance planes, such as the F-15 Eagle, F-16 Fighting Falcon and F-18 Hornet. The intention, according to the magazine, is to allow people entering the military later in life to receive the training they need to become pilots and navigators. It's the first time the age limit has been adjusted in 45 years. The change means people up to the age of 30 can enter pilot and navigation training programs. air force is raising the maximum age for flying training, reports the September 1999 issue of Air Force Magazine. 7/12/2023 0 Comments Kuban blisk![]()

To note, you have to guess which gifts to purchase. but the novelty wore off once I realized the grind to unlock dialogue by purchasing gifts. If you play the game “as intended” with deliberated attacks, combat is more interesting. It’s easy to clear waves by jerking the mouse back and forth, clearing enemies before they are even shown. Section Three: Balanceįor the most part, attacks can be “guessed” if drawn in sufficient succession. Upgrading attacks and purchasing combos is the path to playing minigames at higher difficulty for more money faster. Gifts are essential for unlocking new dialogue and nudity, but money can also be used to upgrade your attacks. Section Three: ProgressionĬompleting minigames nets money, a resource for purchasing “gifts” for the “hot girls that live in this new world”. To defeat them you must draw “magic symbols” with the mouse cursor, taking care to draw the correct symbols with matching elemental damage with the closest enemies.

Section Two: CombatĬombat is conducted via “minigames” with toggleable difficulty. To seduce the inhabitants of “this new world”, you must defend them from clothes-ripping monsters to rack up the funds to bribe them into undressing ( and hopefully, fucking!)

(I am so excited to see both of their crazy asses get married!) Shocked and affirmed, Louie gets choked up as she accepts the proposal. Getting down on his knees, he proposes to Louie with passion and clarity. He tells her not to worry but that he needs to “make some changes” and “reconnect back with my shit.” Sure, that means his goals of building out his business, but it also means marrying his sweetheart. “If I was on the needle and I saw Franklin kill Rob, I’d be making my exit plan too,” she says before switching the subject to Jerome’s wellness. Making an effort to empathize with Jerome’s friend, Louie notes the precarious situation he must have been in.

Jerome grows silent, his eyes wandering across the room. ![]() Oakley says Peaches went to Thailand, but another man in the house says Peaches has fled to Burma. In the plot to take Franklin’s money and aid Kane, Oakley hints at the distance Peaches likely traveled to evade being caught. “I am the game.” Oakley cowers but maintains his story: Peaches was an addict and frequented this spot. “You think I don’t know when someone’s running game on me?” he says. ![]() Feeling misled, Jerome puts a gun to Oakley’s head. As he looks around, Jerome discovers an assortment of substance abusers who inhabit the home. ![]() Later, when Oakley takes Jerome to the house, there is no answer after several knocks, and the two decide to enter as Jerome closes the door behind them.

TRAMP STAMPS - I'd Rather Die (Official Music Video) If "Sex With Me" and "I'd Rather Die" are any indication, the brand of feminism that Tramp Stamps attempt to sell is sexual liberation among cisgender women who sleep with cisgender men. However, when she sings "I can't recall a memory of someone driving me home and not asking for a blowjob," I have to ask: is this really the most pertinent aspect of the patriarchy? Is literally encouraging your fans to sleep with men who don't respect them doing any good? Though Maino is openly queer, she sings of her attraction to men as if it were a curse. The chorus proudly proclaims that Tramp Stamps would "rather die than hook up with another straight white guy." Aside from an allusion to assault - "You can't get it up / I'm sick of hearing 'it's the alcohol,'" go the song's most incriminating lines - "I'd Rather Die" is a blatant display of heteropessimism, or " performative disaffiliations with heterosexuality." And when Tramp Stamps - whose members are all white - were confronted about issues of racial fetishization, Maino responded with a brief TikTok to explain that the song was intended to encourage "men to be better in bed." The band's most recent song, "I'd Rather Die," has drawn the most criticism. The song is a heavy-handed complaint about sleeping with immature men, loaded with an empty chorus that seems to rely on shock value: "Calling you daddy, you didn't complain / When you werе having sex with me," Maino hollers in-between verses about how terribly this guy treats her outside of the bedroom. Tramp Stamps' first original song, "Sex With Me," came out in January. But what I find dangerous about Tramp Stamps is their clumsy, flawed demonstration of "feminism," and the fact that whoever is behind the band thinks this is what Gen Z needs - or even wants. ![]() I'm not going to pretend that I immediately shun artists who found success thanks to their connections, and I'm not so bothered by the fact that three women with songwriting credits and roots in the music world are now marketing themselves as a band. Personally, I don't care if Tramp Stamps are "industry plants" or not. Frankly, it's a pretty inconsequential term to use especially now, when K-Pop acts are increasingly popular worldwide despite literally being assembled with potential profit in mind. The term "industry plant" has been thrown around to shame young artists like Clairo and Billie Eilish, whose parents are in the entertainment industry, or bands like Greta Van Fleet, whose similarities to Led Zeppelin often feel a little too on the nose. |
