My Baby Plants

A couple of weeks ago I got two sundews and one venus fly-trap. I potted them and took them to the yard so they could get all the sun they need. Both are predatory plants. They eat bugs.

I placed them on a table and exposed them to the air also. I was surprised that they weren't catching any insects. Today I saw that almost all of the flying insects were at ground level foraging and doing whatever insects do. After this nice rainy season our yard grew a ton of plants, mostly weeds. All these plants attract all sorts of insects, crawlers and flyers. So I decided to put my plants at ground level. I saw flies and gnats flying around the plants but no takers.

I left and came inside for about an hour or two. When I went back outside to check up on my plants I saw that the sundews had  already trapped several gnats. The venus fly-trap was not so successful. But that's because the plant is very young and its existing traps have not opened fully. But they're still very much alive. I accidentally caused one to partially close when I tried to remove some debris from inside the trap. So yes, they're very much alive. They just need to open their traps so they can begin feeding on bugs.

I realize now that I have to "baby" my plants. I have to take them to the food source so they can feed.

Planet Nine

Here's an article I found online regarding the elusive planet 9, by Sebastian Kettley.

https://www.express.co.uk/news/science/1129566/Planet-nine-news-planet-9-orbit-proof-Mike-Brown-Caltech

Kettley claims that Planet Nine was first proposed in 2016 by astronomers at California Institute of Technology and gives Caltech Professor Michael Brown credit for the Planet Nine Theory.

WTF!!!!!

Does this guy not know that his so-named Planet Nine is most likely Planet X. Planet X has been known to occultists for ages. This planet has been known by many names including Hercolubus, Wormwood, Nibiru and the Barnabus Star.

Here is a book about Hercolubus, written by V.M. Rabolu.

Wormwood is the name given to it in the bible, Revelations 8:10-11. Here it is described as a star that brings destruction to planet earth.
https://www.gotquestions.org/wormwood.html

Other astronomers have also named it the Barnabus star erroneously, it's actually a planet, it's Planet X, Planet 9, Wormwood or Hercolubus.

Exactly why this guy is giving Prof. M. Brown and astronomers at Caltech the credit for discovering Planet Nine is beyond me. One thing for certain, Kettley needs to learn how to do more research before he writes and publishes his articles. He will discover that Planet Nine has been known for ages and that it has gone by many names and in some instances even described as a star.

What is so disturbing is that articles like his may very well find their way into our history books and lead to an erroneous historical account. Prof. Brown and his colleagues at Caltech did NOT discover nor first propose the existence of Planet 9, or Planet X, or Hercolubus, etc., in 2016. The existence of that planet has been known to mankind and has been written about for thousands of years.

Hoorah!

I officially completed my classes today. I had been taking my training classes for four years and tonight I had my last final exam for my last class! It's done!

It has been a long arduous training process. But I have finally reached my goal. In approximately a month I will be getting my next advancement which comes with a 20% wage increase! Hoorah!

Just in case you're wondering what this is all about, well, I have been receiving on the job training for five years and I have been attending mandatory classes for the last four of those five years.

The sense of accomplishment is so sweet. Outwardly I'm very relaxed, but inwardly I'm ecstatic.

Sweet! It has been a long arduous trek, but a very rewarding one.

Peyote

A month ago I acquired several peyote seeds. I put them into pots and the last time I looked I had 6 new peyote seedlings sprouting.

I got Lophophora Williamsii Texensis and Lophophora Williamsii Coahuila. I put the two subspecies into separate pots and was surprised with the germination results. From what I have read, the Texensis is the more adaptable of the two. Texensis should have a better germination rate.

This is not what I discovered. Either my source mislabeled the seeds or the Coahuila is the easier to germinate. But in any case I'm stoked that I am growing some genuine peyote. I have read that peyote is a slow grower taking ten to fifteen years to fully mature in the wild, in ideal conditions it can mature in as little as three to five years.


I have mine under a GroLux light with a heating pad underneath. I have a timer that turns the light and heating pad on at sunrise and off at sunset.

Sweet!

I'm enjoying growing my peyote cacti. They're really low-maintenance.

Bowling Night

Tonight I went bowling for the first time. Damn it's fun!

There's a bowling spot near my home. It's been there for many years. I went there about thirty years ago with my cousins. I didn't bowl, I just hung around the pinball and video game area. I was very young and I wasn't really interested in anything except pinball and video games.

So, today I went to the bowling alleys with my brother and brother-in-law and the family. It was so fun. We definitely have to do this again!

Now I know why Fred Flintstone and his buddy Barney Rubble were avid bowlers. It's a fun game!

Extreme Grilling

I decided to have a grill-out today but I got lazy and didn't want to go outside. So I decided to have my grill-out on the kitchen stove.

I grilled some delicious drum-sticks and some good steak. I went on to grill some burgers and was doing an awesome job until I set off the fire alarm. I had to call the fire department immediately to tell them it was a false alarm. Wow! I had those burgers flaming! Just like in the backyard a couple of weekends ago for the spring equinox.

But yeah. No more using the kitchen stove for extreme grilling. It's not safe.
