How do I get my basil to branch earlier? Growing too fast?

How do I get my basil to branch earlier? Growing too fast?

I’ve got a new basil plant from a cutting that has grown really fast. I’ve got it in a 10-5-14 solution. I would like it to put on buds lower in the stem. Did it just grow too fast? Should I have less nutrients in my next attempt so that it buds lower down? Remove light? Not sure how to slow it down and increase budding.

I’m having a ton of fun propagating basil and finding custom containers

I have been propagating cuttings from a single $5 Home Depot special I bought about a month ago and these things take off fast.

I used to root in plain water but now I go straight from cutting to a 3” net cup that fits a wide mouth jar. Once I see roots pop through the net cup, it’s time to move the plant to an opaque container.

As for the containers, I hit up Ross, Goodwill, and find a nice container without holes in it.

I designed a 3d print file in Fusion that I just input a few custom parameters in to print a lid for the container that will adapt a 3” net pot. Next up, find some larger 1/2 and 1 gallon containers for “the mother.”

What are these D ring studs called for T8 clip brackets?

I had a set of lights come with these nice hanger studs that screw into the clip hangers, but I can’t find more on Amazon. I see plenty of T8 clip hangers, but can’t seem to find the stud. I’ve searched for “Chicago screw” and “d ring stud” and can’t seem to find anything specifically for these brackets.

My ex-wife and I are trying to figure out how I can buy her out of the house that we shared. It has a 2.5% rate and I’d like to keep it if possible.

Our loan is through Valon, and they’re sending me paperwork on assuming sole responsibility for the loan. Then it looks like she and I both need to file a quitclaim deed.

When I google about quitclaim, I see language that says “the grantor remains responsible for mortgage and tax payments until the loan is paid off.”

Obviously, we both want her completely off the loan and the deed/title. Assuming Valon lets me assume primary/sole responsibility for the loan, is this something that’s possible to do? I make enough income on my own to qualify for it, so I’m hoping that’s all it will take.

Thanks for any input.

This is hardwired to a 240v/60a continuous line, no interruptions with wire connectors. All of my lines are snug in the box and in my breaker.

This fault happens every day, and I’ve only had it about 2 weeks. I’m wondering if I’m doing something wrong, or if I’ve got a bad unit? It’s on a strong wifi signal, and the wifi light is always green.

Any other recommendations? It charges fine, once I reset it every day.
