Anyone expecting anything exciting from the iPhone 12?

On and off lurking for the apple watch 6, according to rumours it's supposed to get a proper battery after all these years

I just can't Watch. It's an anachronism from the 20th century. Like having the iFlask or the iSnuffBox or iCane or iMonocle or iTopHat.

My digital hipsterism is lacking

University education is really free for international students at some public institutions in Germany? What's the catch? @lgorTudor

The way it was at my university, exchange students always paid their home tuition.

That means Germans had a free year at American schools and Americans paid their crazy american tuition while attending our school

You said 'some' which may entirely be the case but not all

@lgorTudor @DAiDEViL This is the man that taught me everything I know about corporate finance

Incredibly mechanical and methodical. Even more impressive was his ability to smoke cigarettes

I bet his great grandfather also knew a thing or two about (((corporate finance)))

@Quetzalcoatl Hold up you aren't looking at exchange student scenarios, you're looking to come for a full studies

In that case international students are subject to the same rules as everybody which means studying at any public university is free for you. if you can get a visum and if the school accepts your application and you find a way to support yourself while you stay.

Chances are good tho that they give you loans at worst and grants at best

@Post Ironic - do you ever put fresh manure in your garden and if so when do you usually do it? I'm reading it needs to be 5-6 months before you plant anything so it isn't "hot" and fries your veggies. Everything in my greenhouse is on steroids right now but the temps are dropping here at night (50s) so I think my veggies in my garden know its about time to die lol. I'm thinking about clearing out my garden or most of it (cucumbers still doing quite well). I found a horse farm down the street a couple miles that gives away fresh manure so I might go get some lol

I use it for runner beans, dig it in with the compost a few weeks before they are big enough/warm enough to be planted outside. I usually get a few hundred beans from 10 plants. I'm not sure how well it works for other veg but my grandad used this method all his life.

Never used much of it in a greenhouse before (some Romano toms) but outside use depends on how good your soil is. Even if you lay it on top in October the worms will mix it in naturally and it should be good for next spring. If you look up 'lasagna bed' gardening you can see how this works with layers.

Essentially all you are trying to achieve is the best soil you can, and if it looks organic and 'fluffy' then you'll know it is good to go.

lol I added about 5-6 inches of Manure onto of my garden soil. Once my garden is completely done for the season, I will till it into the soil and let time take care of the rest. This year I tilled up the grass and added soil to it, so it isn't the "best" garden soil yet so hopefully this will give it a nice kick for next spring. I will probably add about 2 more inches before the spring. My issue is the roots only have about 3-4 inches before it hits clay soil so I need to increase the distance to that so the roots have more space/nutrients.

I have been composting too (trying for the first time) but I think even that won't come close to helping my soil like the manure will. Good point about the worms, I forgot about that. They definitely help. I think I am going to use what I make with Composting in my greenhouse instead of my garden (2 different locations).

I'll do some research lasagne bed. If @Post Ironic would stop yelling at me in other threads, I'd appreciate his input here

I don’t really use manure anymore. More of a fan of Sea Soil (mix of fish and forest fines 50/50). Organic, composted for two years, and guaranteed to be weed free. Doesn’t have all the seeds in it that manure can bring into the garden. And is guaranteed herbicide free which can be aproblem if you don’t know the source of your manure and the farming practices used.

Manure is still great of course. Especially aged manure. And if you are tilling it into your soil in the fall it should be no problem for burning or for pathogens as by the time you are growing it should start to break down, more so if you have a high number of worms in that soil of yours. As soon as you feel you’ve amended your soil enough through tilling I would recommend not tilling the soil anymore as it is destroys fungal networks and the soil structures that support the ecosystem there. Better to mulch on top each year, and allow the worms to break it down into the soil.

As an aside, you should look up Hugelkultur. Really neat permaculture growing method.
