Good luck on your setup and I look forward to seing some pictures of your system. I would also commend you on your postive attitude toward life's little curves definitely necessary in this hobby.

    Welcome to the forum ernie, Glad to have you aboard . My youngest son worked with 3DSMax for a little while, but he liked blender, poser and carrera as well ...... (since we didn't have the $ to buy 3DSMax). He just had a "loaner" for a short time .... Anyways, welcome to the forum, and to the ranks of the recession-proof job of finding a new job

    Re: Hola from SoCal

    Hey Ernie, how well did you clean your IBC tank?

    I borrowed my uncles power washer and it took off the majority of the Gorilla Snot but there are still a lot of tiny flecks and specks stuck to the sides (not to the bottom though since the dried Snot just peeled cleanly off in 1 huge layer).

    I tried a kitchen scrubber for the tiny flecks but it wasn't very effective. I think a putty knife or other scraper would work but unfortunately the sides aren't smooth, they are kind of wavy, so it will be difficulty to scrape effectively.

    Did you have this same problem?

    i'll post pics when i recover. Moving a bunch of blocks and grow medium has reminded me i'm not as young as may think i am.
    Yep, Hybrids then. They should be pretty big by now.
