Ten seeds from the packet, damp kitchen roll, fold it, into a labelled sandwich bag, somewhere warm like the top of the fridge. Check at day seven and again at day ten to fourteen depending on the crop, parsnip and celery are slow so give them longer. Count what has actually pushed a root out. Eight of ten is a good packet, sow normally. Five of ten is usable, sow twice as thick. Two of ten means you are wasting bed space and the packet is a bin job. It costs you one sheet of kitchen roll and no bed space, and you can run twelve packets at once in one tray of bags. Do the tests now for the ones you would sow first, not all forty in one go.

Buy a second hydrometer while you are ordering. They cost almost nothing and they break at the least convenient possible moment, usually the evening you finally get round to bottling.

Three devs and a deadline - whichever one you pick, write the leak test first. Two tenants, one loop over every endpoint, assert nothing crosses. That test is worth more than the choice.

Almost certainly. Mine rejected a food for a fortnight and then ate it happily once it arrived mixed into the old one over ten days.

This is the answer I did not want and clearly needed. I had done the VRAM arithmetic on parameter count and forgotten the cache and the buffers entirely.

This is what tipped me. A one-off formulated recipe cost me less than two months of the imported bag, and it is a fixed cost rather than a recurring one. Worth pricing out before assuming home cooking is the expensive option.

The lag direction matters for training too. If you are running by heart rate zones, the wrist under-reads at the start of an effort, so you push harder to hit the number and end up above the zone you intended.

How often does the air injection type need servicing in practice? That's the bit I could never get a straight answer on.

Moving every 2-3 nights for the first half, then four nights in one place. So mostly the first case.

Living with the hardness for a year is much more palatable than replacing cartridges every month. Thanks.

Hadn't thought about the septic interaction at all. Adding it to the list of questions.

For interactive use 18 is fine - it is faster than you read. It only becomes a problem for batch work, and for batch you want a machine that can run several requests at once anyway, which is a different purchase.
