Pretty much all my plants have flowers and fruit starting now. Luffa and Watermelon are still a bit slow though. Things are still heating up. Then again I had stuff flowering indoors back in March and April before I planted them outside.
>>1020992
Kek, had to use my finger back then to get the camera to focus properly
>>1020995
If you count in the germination container, mine are already in their 5th size pot now. As I've used a much heavier mix right now (garden clay, sand, compost), the current size should last them a bit longer (previously used the very light store-bought potting soil). As I'm planning to grow these as perennials (or at least 2 years - it will be a challenge at 50°N with no artificial lighting and extremely cloudy winters), I'm curious how big I'll have to eventually size up
>>1021011
Yeah, my Cayenne also flowered in April indoors (pic), some of my strawberries flowered in mid-March outside, but then got hit by late frost in April
For a more meta thing, anyone up for a dedicated split-off /capsicum/ general? I mean when I first started going to /hgm/ back in 2015, a single thread was up for 3+ weeks, now we're at like 4 days, so a split off would make sense I think, considering it's one of the most popular genera grown on here. I guess for my next update in a couple days I'll just give it a try if no one else does and see how it goes
>want to buy some clif bars to see what its hype is all about
>prices as low as $0.93 in the US
>store in my city on the other side of the pound sells it at 2.35€
Is it worth or am I being memed by marketing old tricks?
>>1020842
There are approximately a gorillion different protein/meal bars in current production. About half of them are even palatable. Cliff bars are just the most well known. Find a different one.
>>1020842
Clif bars are astonishingly average. Really do the trick though. The mint ones are a winner imo.
>One of the shops on uni campus does a meal deal
>Can get a sandwhich/wrap, drink, and a snack for £3.29
>they have all peanut and chocolate cliff bars as snacks
>take them home and stockpile them for /out/ings instead of eating them with lunch
Feels good
>Kilian Jornet, a renowned Spanish endurance athlete, climbed from the Tibetan side of Everest without the use of supplemental oxygen or fixed ropes. He climbed the traditional route up the North Face, from Base Camp to the summit, in just 26 hours.
>For perspective, it takes most climbers, using supplemental oxygen and fixed ropes, days to reach the peak. But Jornet isn’t a typical climber. He already holds speed records on Mt. Kilimanjaro, Mt. Aconcagua, Denali, the Matterhorn, and Mont Blanc.
>This was Jornet’s second attempt at Everest. In September 2016 he was turned back by adverse weather conditions.
Some people are fucking amazing
Good weather, probably.
I could do it faster I just don't want to

What's in your bug out bag?
I had never even heard of it til I saw this post. After reading about it more, I should definitely get one together.
Off the top of my head, I'd keep lots of bullets.
Also want to see what it was:

Why are scriptfags always such edgelords?
I'm bored /out/, post the scariest shit that's haooened to you in the woods.
>>1002446
field mice jumping through the branches
Shit was loud as fuck, thought it was planet of the apes all over again until I shined my light up.
Never seen that kind of thing before.
That's it, nothing else really happens in the San Gabriel mountains...
>>1002456
I'm not saying necessarily anything paranormal, like once my uncle was stalked by a mountain lion and almost shit his pants.
Does anyone actually carry a sword of some type when they go /out/?
>>973774
I'very carried my Swamp rather waki a few times but that was literally just for shits and giggles.
I know a few hema folks that do but that's just because they take them out and have practice sessions out in the hills and stuff..
>>973774
>>973774
I will usually carry my basic short spear from cold steel, just in the case of mountain lions I at least have a better option than just my knife. My swords would be impractical I think.
And why is it pic related?
P.s. You can't prove me wrong.
>>1023559
Obviously this
>>1023559
Shit tang.
Scandi grind is more prone to chipping.

Can't prove you wrong but CAN prove you're a faggot.

/out/ recommends going to try on different boots/shoes at the store to see which one fits you best because people's feet are different.
What does /out/ think of Outdoor Herbivore? More specifically their Vegan meals?
>Go /out/
>Eat stuff from outside but paying for it to be wrapped in a bag
Might as well just learn to gather properly at that point
I try to stay vegan and was looking for a good outdoor dehydrated/ freeze dried meal and found outdoor herbivore. There are like 3 video reviews for some of their products that say they are pretty good. Anybody else here try to stay vegan and goes out doors? I think a days ration of the meals is like 1500 calories which I'm not sure if I could get away with eating or not I'm like 190 lbs.

ive tried eating some grasses and cedar berries before. the grasses ive heard are not easily digestible but I don't think it was too hard on my stomach. The cedar berries were tasty but made me thirsty. I have also heard of eating dandelions and such but don't have much experience beyond eating grass, dew berries, and cedar berries.
Not sure if this is the correct board, but here goes.
Guys I just moved to the Marshal Islands, and everyone here has a bike due to cars not being allowed.
However metal here rust all to hell(not even stainless steel holds up), even bikes dont hold up very long out here, without constant maintenance, due to constant exposure to salt in the air.
So I'm gonna buy a bike online and have it shipped out here.
What should I be looking for in a rust resistant bike, if they make such a thing.
I've lived on an island all my life.
In Summer, no more than 25m from the water. In winter a few Kms inland.
Never had a bike or car rust.
All we did was get a hose and wash salt spray away every morning.
Either before putting the bike away in a garage, or in the morning if you have left it outside for the night.
Take care of your shit and it won't rust.
>>1016183
There are no garages out here. And it rains constantly.
So simply washing it down everyday would be enough to prevent rusting?
Can't you get an aluminum one?
What's your /out/ thing?
I don't wanna play.

let's find out
Hopefully Bear Grylls, I do own most of his merchandise.

>>1015069
That's a really beautiful knife

Thanks, i got it last xmas, but haven't really had a chance to use it in the wild. Luckily im going /out/ this weekend so hopefully ill get some use out of it
Not sure if this is the right place to post, but just looking for fellow climbers around here. Post favorite crags, gyms, give advice, chat.
Any other climbers around? I do 10s, working up to an 11.
I'm really new to bouldering. I've been doing it for about three months, and all at my local UK climbing gym, but Christ, what a sport! Beats the shit out of anything I've gotten into before - football, cycling, squash. I love it and I'm trying to get in there three times a week.
> Apologies for not being more interesting/constructive but I'd definitely lurk here

I'm actually looking to reopen a gym in the Jackson, MS, USA area. I'm a frequent patron of all the gyms in my college town, but what would you like to see as a newcomer? I'm going to have to find or build a community from scratch.
>>1014798
I don't think anything which you wouldn't have thought of. The biggest thing for me, at a couple of gyms I've been to, is the approachability/friendliness of the staff. That makes it lots more attractive to newbies. As does decent snacks/coffee. One of the gums I go to have a lunchtime deal (weekdays) with half price entry and a free hot drink
In terms of walls, a range of inclines, overhangs, and traverses makes the experience as fun and accessible as it can be.
hey /out/
I'm currently in trade school for welding/machining/manufacturing, but I've been realizing lately that if I have to work a job where I'm inside I'm going to be miserable. Every day I'm inside and the weather's nice is so depressing, the only time I feel really good is when I'm out alone in the woods and nature.
What kind of career field can I go into to work outside in the woods? First things that come to mind are park ranger, wilderness guide, and firewatch. What other choices do I have if I want to live a life out in the wild?
I've considered being a hermit in the wild/vagabond before.
What are some good/stable /out/ careers or jobs?
If I have to live most of my life inside around civilization I think I'd end up shooting myself.
Try this thread >>>1006151
>What kind of career field can I go into to work outside in the woods?
Being a logger
Also I'm interested in becoming a wilderness guide but haven't looked into it much yet, if an anon could tell me what it's like I'd be interested.

Farmer here.
Become a farmer.
Just don't become a stupid farmer who makes more work for himself than he should (99% of small farm farmers do that.)
I recently left my welding gig for timber cruising, make good money camping and hiking, the data collection procedure is a bit of a learning curve at first..but once you get it it's easy
