I Need more Reds

What's not green in your JM garden this time of year

For me, it's Summer Gold, Sunny Shirawawn, Pung Kil, Iijame Sunago, First Flame has some tinge of color on the new summer flush foliage. In the Shady section, Hana Matoi, Usugumo is creamy.....and I think that's about it .

Everything is all green .

I bought a Lileeanes Jewel to add some color but that died on me.

Probably going to plant a Emperor 1 or Shania

Mail Order is soooo Expensive

Zero JM at my local nursery except for less than a handful of the most popular cultivars at typical *northeast* rates. Which IME is anywhere from 2X to 3X the price than the same sizes sold out west.

So how I got into JM growing if not my main supply is the few JM mail orders houses

Mail order does offer much more cultivars.

I've always been amazed on the pricing out West for similar stuff...

However, I must say this as it was a slight eye opener recently...

There are decent nurseries I've come across within a half days driving ......and the pricing for the large 6qt to ball burlap stock is easily just the same as possibly those itty bitty 3G XL or 5G - 7G that I am able to mail order if if's offered in those sizes. And that's even before shiping

Such an eye opener than there are local larger farms:nurseries in the NE corridor that do have JM's and FIRS at same:similar pricing for the sizes being sold. To the effect that for the 3-4 dozen of the mail orders I may have, all of them feel so over priced after today.......

JWP Back Bud

:-(

Deer nibbled the tip of my the leader of my JWP last year. NO new candles this year from said leader tip.

The 2nd year needles still remain on this branch but it starting to show signs it is going to fade.

At currently time, I can see the tree for the most part has developed its buds for next year. On Sadly, it has not backbudded or forward budded.....anything on the top of this ribbed leader for the second year in a row

Should I presume this leader is going to be a dead branch....possibly next year when the needles drop. Cut my losses . Not looking to train a new leader + setback of 2-3 years to get the shape going on. Rather just buy a same cultivar to replace it

Gold Classic

Is the Gold Classic worth it these days....

Just short of MR with my 2-3 decades Gold Classic, AF aside, just kept it as the primary card I use since AMEX always backed anything dispute wise. I did have one or 2 disputes in the last 5 years....and it was a bit of a struggle....getting them too side the story (eBay fraud sent me a box of rocks on a $3800 purchase).

My annual is coming up and thinking I'll just switch to the Blue Card

Heat : Sun Wheelchair Storage

Not a wheelchair user but I had a question.....I do have a wheelchair I use for transporting someone. Is heat a concern if the wheelchair is stored in the trunk......I suppose the answer is yes, whether it be the rubber on the handle grips or anything that may accelerate -outgassing:aging- of .

Had to ask as I can either keep in in the garage and or for now, just keep it in the trunk for the as-is needed .

Hatch Release with no Manual Release

For G05:F95, any techs in the know.

If there is no power, even with power on the front leads on the hood and nothing is operating, what is the secret sauce to getting the rear hatch to release since there is not emergency manual hatch release

I've often wondered ...

Dealer vs Indy for OOW repairs

Since discovering this sub, realized there are techs here

Is there ever an instance where a Dealer *will* do a better job.....I have often wondering about about vehicles with IAS and if there was a special jig/jigs used when doing alignments for those. I concluded there was special jigs but IAS but those were only used in major structural repairs:alignments and any car with IAS was fine to be done elsewhere.

I get that oil changes or brake jobs are possibly cheaper than the Indy as it's a get you into the door pricing

What's your take on Dealer vs Indy when it comes to repairs. All my stuff is on leases and the Indy is really there for MODS. I can't say this is always the case but I recently discovered my wheel was damaged by the dealer that did a repair and never disclosed it

Windshield Riders

Curious what the agent's or anyone in the insurance industry POV is

I have windshield coverage on our policies...

Windshield replacement is at least 3-3500 vs my measly deductible if I use the windshield rider.

I often debate this as if I ever have needed a windshield replacement, even with the rider I pay for on the policy, I have gone OOP the last few times as it wasn't worth having the claim on my policy

A claim is a claim, so I am second guessing if I don't intend to use the windshield rider, I should opt out....even though it is relatively inexpensive having it on the policy.

From an insurance agent, underwriter or the like in this sub, what's your take on this. Just use the policy since you're paying for it, and or....my POV, which was it's not worth having the claim on record

CarFax Reporting Post Claim

Riddle me this for those in the know......as Carfax always is the *basis* for a quick look on a cars history.

Got sideswiped about 1 1/2 years ago.Same insurance carrier.....I filed against their policy, repairs was about 30K.

As of today, I still don't even see it on CarFax. Is this the norm or hit-or-miss on what shows up on CarFax

Seat : Steering Wheel Protection

Off topic....for the SA's. Does you service department put steering, seat and carpet protectors on vehicles checked in for service.

I suppose it's cost cutting as that has always been the norm at my dealer. Over the past few years, they only seem to be using a mat cover for the floor carpet and zero protection for the steering wheel or seats

I just bought some covers myself just to throw on when I bring it in for scheduled service just to mitigate potential stain on Ivory Interior

WiFi 6 Performance on 7 Max

All my AP's are wired...

Wouldn't have expected that much of a difference when running this test just bearing the distance of the AP, and AP is not meshing but wired backhaul

Same location - 5 Feet Away from AP

Hardwired Pro 6 - MBP WiFi 7 Capable....but on Eero Pro 6......Got a C on Bufferbloat Test

Swapped to 7 Max, MLO Enabled...but looking at stats, MBP connected on both 5GHZ and 6GHZ

Bufferbloat Score was a A

Is Single Flush Always Single Flush

JWP

I have two JWP that has new buds from this year that appear they may-might be candles for this year

On each one....new candle from this year, with what -appears- to be more than a bud developing for next season. I'm eyeballing the growth on it and it just keeps on developing and developing like it's going to emerge

Has anyone seen something similar. New to JWP but can Single Flush actually be a *new flush of growth* in the same season.

I know JBP will do this but I thought all JWP is single flush

--------------

Update as I just observed the the tips being discussed. Not a candle but just new needles . I only see it on a single candle:branch on each of these 2 JWP. All other branches on the same JWP or other JWP are not showing this new flush of needles that I thought was *5 node flush happening*

Watering Heat Wave

I did end up dragging out the hoses + extensions and hose watered some trees just to give it some supplemental water during heat wave

We're here yakking about JM so I suppose this is more enthusiast talk here.

Just short of depending on drip irrigation, I wonder how those Bonsai guys fare out in weather conditions like these. Just run the emitters 2-4X a day I suppose, given the itty bitty pots

Solo Operator Too Much for PPF

The work being done by detailing PPF shop was not up to standards....and it turned out the main guy left....I literally have had at least 4 cars done previously either from him or at least under the main leadership of said technician...

I literally followed the work....and found out that the installer opened up his own shop. New car, new full wrap...and this is where the issues begin

On the original install, 2 panels needed to be redone. There was some lift lines that should not have been there....

One panel was redone, he left the edges not fully tacked down and upon pickup date, he literally stated I left the edges semi loose as you need to come back in spring for another redo.

Fast forward to the redo ....and there is heavy silvering again. He left it off stating let's see if it settles and if it doesn't, schedule again for a redo..

I know the bubbles will settle as the film cures but I know the silvering isn't. I know partially or mainly the issue is literally TIME.....one man doing full panels and time is against you with the glue and film....

So for the Pro's or Joe's out there,do I literally give him a 4th chance on this panel or should I just cut my losses. I get the install would probably be XXX better if he had a helper but sofar, in at least 1 year from the original install, it doesn't appear he plans to have hired help@ his shop. Just seeking some input for a 3rd angle...

For Those Familiar with JWP

I've been eyeballing one particular JWP of mine....since the leader got nibbled on las year. No New Candles off this tip for this spring flush nor am I seeing anything yet.

However, unless I am going crazy seeing it this early in the season, I have a less than a handful that appear to have small buds already developing. Not a lot but a few of them are show *5 visible* buds......on the terminal end of some of this years candles already.

Is it common to see next years buds developing in July. I was thinking Mid-Late August

Sign out of Gmail but keep *Profile*

Chrome with saved passwords and -autofill-

I had to sign into a gmail workspace account and next thing....the usual chrome I use had attached a *profile* to chrome....I don't see a way of deleting just the Google sign in on it. I'm not even signed it as I am signed out but it shows the workspace account on the top right with the verify it's you. I don't see a way to just *delete this* and have it back to where there was no gmail or workspace attached to it .

To sum it up, just short of doing a export on passwords export + doing a manual copy to retain auto URL complete, what am I amiss.

Right now, when Chrome Opens, it shows profile manager.....and where the saved passwords:browsing history, it is now -attached- to the profile of the Google Workspace email I opened. With Chrome open, on the top right...it says verify now *as I am not signed in* . I don't see a sign out option here. I went to gmail thinking I would sign out there but even as such, I'm not even signed in on gmail as it brings up the PW field in the browser. It looks like it's now all attached as a -profile- to the workspace email address I logged in

Full Sun - JP Princess, Mayday, Tattoo, Usugumo, Fairy Lights

Was curious about these cultivars....and full/semi full sun siting

Currently in one heck of heat wave and while these are planted in afternoon shade.... JP Princess, Mayday, Tattoo, Usugumo, Fairy Lights.....I can clearly see that now that they are more mature, with probably larger and vast root systems, there is no sign of burn. Japanese Priness on the new Growth....I did spot a few burnt leaves, but this was even before the heat wave

So for those with said cultivars, do you have them seeing some afternoon sun. Was curious.....as my understanding of some of these like Fairy Lights, the more sun, the better the Fall Color
