Current Events > Mezcla is a fraud and has no idea how to garden and lies about it on CE

(+) Yeah! (+)

On behalf of the CE users that actually do garden. That is all.

same lol

That user has me blocked and I have no idea who they are.

In fact I think that's an account that blocked me before I even knew they existed.
---

He blocked me for asking why he ignored TC lol


---

bluemonk has been a psychopath for years, this is nothing new

he blocked me because I pointed out that it was BlueMonk's alt account once.

that was it.

---

LOL oh well that makes more sense then, BlueMonk has had me blocked for a while. I had no idea that's who it was.

---

Dude is weird

But also I don't give two shits about some lying about gardening

Wait is that the dude with the major fetish for Korean chicks? I know it was some guy with Blue in his name

I take pride in my gardening skills, there's a lot of science and chemistry to it. It took a while to get a lot of it right.

yup

Is lying about gardening his new gimmick or something?

Can confirm TCs comments.

So he lies about gardening and you get oddly mad and elitist about it

You're both weird then

Is Mezcla BlueMonk?

What is oddly mad? How does it differ from you getting oddly mad at him getting oddly mad?

lol where am I mad and elitist? I'm just saying the only reason I care is because I garden and he posts wrong, dumb information for people who ask questions, in turn potentially messing up their efforts trying to garden at home. I don't like people getting sabotaged by a troll is all.

I'm unblocked :coolface:

Let's fight this guy

@Mezcla

Apparently so

Yeah, anyone who blocks @MabusIncarnate is an enemy of mine. Put em up big boy.

He should go back to the Korean girls gimmick

Like the shit he was posting about aquaponics to that user asking, saying get a heater and set it to 80 and try to grow rice, well that destroys a $300 system, killing all of the fish within because you can't grow rice in an aquaponic system and fish can't live properly in 80 degree water. I feel like that's messed up to do to someone.

---

I don't know how to garden either. That's why I bought a house with like 100+ plants and trees on it.

2 years later I haven't unintentionally killed anything, but I've learned a lot. Still wouldn't say I know how to garden.

(I had a tree chopped down and replaced a bunch of hedges that didn't survive the winter)

---

There's a few ins and outs when it comes to vegetables, and even some fruits if you want to go that route. I have an apple tree but I do nothing for it, I like having it there because it attracts deer and I like seeing the yearlings every year.

I try new stuff each year, I have nieces and nephews that like to come help and they are super excited to see tomatoes and peppers grow from what they helped me plant at the start of the season. It's a good skill to have.

Are there any good (preferably indoor) tiny fruits that are pretty renewable? I want to have a self-sustaining source of food for my bulbul, but a lot of what I give it grow on kinda big plants, like apples, kiwis, mangoes, grapes, papayas, various berries, and bell peppers. Basically any fruit that's not too acidic. And the mentioned peppers lol.

I've got an odd yard for that. I have a 2 story garage/carriage home out back which casts a lot of shade midday for most of the year. There aren't a whole lot of spots that get a lot of sun without sacrificing the lawn. I also have a number of 20-30 ft tall trees for privacy that shade a fair bit.

Strawberries are doable indoors, you can get some indoor LED lighting that's heavy red/blue spectrum that they will thrive under, and they don't get very large.

Depending on the region and how much frost you get in winter, you could do a few fruit trees and it's virtually just water them twice a week if you aren't getting much rain and the leaves are drooping. Pears and plums grow well with lower light yards.

Cucumbergate has arrived and ce will never be the same

---

How long did it take your trees to start bearing fruit.

Ours took like three years, and the fruit was quite small.

Delicious, but tiny. Plum trees in this instance, I don't remember the pears every bearing fruit honestly.

---

Thanks, that's good because my bird is especially fond of strawberries and they're high in vitamin C. I've never been good at taking care of plants though, but I'll give it a shot. I think I tend to over water them though. Like the soil will look dry so I'll give them a few sprays each day to try to get it to soak down, but I think that's what kills them. And I feel stupid after, because I'm like 99% certain that I shouldn't be watering them nearly as much, but I can't stop myself <_<

Vegetable gardening is overrated. Look at these fucking calla lilies

Closer to 5 years, but it really depends on how big they are when you buy them and likely the water/sunlight they are getting. Initially the apples were just a big bigger than golf balls, but each year they are getting larger as the tree grows.

If the leaves begin to yellow, the are being overwatered, otherwise you are good. Plants like tomatoes you can seemingly just water over and over and it won't kill them. Drier leaves, little brown tips, they need more water. I have a saltwater fish tank calcium supplement that I used to use for corals and whatnot, and I put a drop of that into my gallon container before watering my house plants and porch veggies and i've noticed a difference. A lot of people like the miracle grow water additives also.

I've always felt like watering it a lot, until it starts pouring out the bottom is better than just a bit of water to re-moisten the soil. Stagnant, older water can cause root rot and mildew and molding on the surface of the soil. I good watering flushes a lot of that out.

That is beautiful, I have some flowers but I want to do a lot more. I'll try to remember to snap some pics tomorrow.

Ah, thanks for the advice :D

I garden. Also, I am glad I dodge whatever a bullet that thread was about.

Garden arguing? No, I'm good on that.

I noticed how he post "Im black" in so many posts where no one brought up race. And I only noticed that after someone said Bluemonk was exposed for not being black. >_>. However, I didn't see any actual evidence of him lying. But if he's also lying about this, then that just adds to it.

Very disingenuous user, even by our standards.

---

@YugiNoob You should look into growing millet for your bird, it grows 3-4 feet tall, but it grows fast and is easy. It could be an outside porch project and you can grow an organic treat for bird.

I can't keep a plant alive if my life depended on it, but arguing over gardening is not what I'd expect on here. Honestly, considering most of the stuff on here, that seems pretty cute and fuzzy.

---

It wasn't even arguing, lol. He just kept posting these threads, and people ask about gardening, and he was giving them bad information, and in turn potentially causing these people to do dumb things and kill their plants. I called him out on it and he blocked me.

Oh. Then, he's probably just like me and just says he's whatever side fits the current situation >_>. I mostly use my mutt powers for humor tho.

I have a bunch of hibiscus too, but they won't bloom for a bit longer so there's not much to see there
---

Oh damn that's right, millet. I actually tried growing that for a while because of a funny accident. I used to feed my bird a seed mix (now it's just pellets and fruit).

So here's how it started...I must've accidentally dropped a millet seed on the ground, stepped on it, and tracked it into the shower. Because one day I saw a tiny plant sprouting out of the hair strainer lol. I transplanted it into a little container of soil, and it grew fast. When it was about 3 inches it seemed like it stopped growing, so I just plucked it and fed it to my bird lol.

That got me testing, so I tried to grow more, but I could never get any steady results. I tried soaking them in water since that first seed sprouted without any. Some grew a teensy bit, but would never show any real growth. Others I tried putting into soil, which got me success off and on, but for some reason, they just stopped sprouting after a while.

Yeah, maybe I'll try millet and strawberries. I'm sure I'll have better luck with seeds that are supposed to be grown rather than meant for direct consumption lol

---

This is one of the weirdest dramas I've seen on CE so far.

---

Millet is a very hardy, easy plant to grow. Just a good sized pot, some potting soil, watering, and a bit of sunlight and it should be good to go.
