Ambulance and fire app. are great and all but LEDT (Law Enforcement Driver Training) is where the real fun is at!

Um, somebody say beer. :bananas_b :bananas_b :bananas_b

Re: Preference for shade in early frosty mornings?
 

ok incube. due to the fact that i havent taken my biology 1 in botony yet...ummmm could you possibly speak english when you give us scientific facts? i would really like to understand what you are saying its kind of important to understand what people are trying to convey. lol::2727:

Amen! I think I understood the idea behind his comments, though, and he did explain the "why" part of my original question!!! :D

Inkcube, your profile describes your background as "research, grower, consultant". Would you please let us know a little bit more about you and what you do?

Nate, I'm with you, though I can only handle 1 or 2.

Magicgreen, I agree, it would be nice for us to have a meeting some day. How about hosting it at your place, Jarred? ;)

Re: Preference for shade in early frosty mornings?
 

been doing this a long and sometimes forget not every one speaks or reads this stuff. hope this helps a bit:

photosythetic machinery - set of proteins responsible for photosynthesis the process of turning carbon dioxide into sugar using water and light

cleaves water, in this case splitting water into H+(proton) and –OH(hydroxyl free radical) and a free electron

free radical - atomic or molecular species with unpaired electrons

photoinhibition - process that shuts down photosynthesis shuts down the absorption of too much light energy compared with the photosynthetic capacity

nucleating agents increase the crystallization rate, in this case ice formation, 100% pure water doesn’t freeze as easily as impure water

thank you inkcube! i understood THAT perfectly. i have an extensive vocabulary, i just choose not to employ them.( that way people think im stupid! ulter motives). like i said i havent taken my botony 1 yet, but that extensive vocublary was just way over my short little head. ha ha ha. and i dont think that jarred would want a "bunch of nana heads" trompin through his banana patch. i know i would not! how ever the idea of all of us getting together in one place..it might scare the natives... what am i talking about, i am native, and native to fl. hey yah, florida would be good......"it wasnt me officer...it was the banana man"! maybe i can apply for a job while im down there. hee hee hee

Re: Preference for shade in early frosty mornings?
 

Ok Inkcube thats real pretty from the book. Now what I need and I know you can do this...........B-R-E-A-K-I-T Downnnnnn!!!! so i can understand in my amoebic mind what this stuff means; starting with phoyoinhibition. OK GO!!!:doggyandnaner: :doggyandnaner: :doggyandnaner: :doggyandnaner:

Re: Preference for shade in early frosty mornings?
 

strong light sometimes causes the reduction of photosynthetic efficiency, a phenomenon referred to as photoinhibition. the susceptibility of plants to photoinhibition depends on the species and growth light-environments. in general, shade plants or low-light grown plants are more susceptible to photoinhibition than sun plants or high-light grown plants – this is why when bringing houseplants outside they need to be set in the shade for a number of weeks before being exposed to full sun. plants will only manufacture enough chlorophyll (photosynthetic protein) that it can use based on the light levels it receives. since photoinhibition has a potential to lower productivity and plant growth, avoidance of photoinhibition is critical for the fitness and survival of plants. basically it’s like a sun stroke for plants, it receives more sun that it can handle and starts to shut down.

Re: Preference for shade in early frosty mornings?
 

Oh yeah thats what iam talkin' about!!!!! So that explains why when I put my beautiful green and purple sikkimensis in the backyard and it didnt get that glaring 3:30pm until evening sun, it retained its beautiful color. Because if too much photosynthesis was goin' on it would bleach out the color. It got sunlight, but it was indirect from approximately 3:30 till dark at maybe 9PM. Break it down so we or shoot ME get it right!!! We are the next Youtube!!! but bananabetter!!!!!!!!:2237: MG Inkcube you got it goin' on!!!!!!!!!!

understood that one too.:2223:
