The Russians don't interfere with other Tourist's, they just stay within their community, at least this is what I observed.

Because a lot of them doesn't speak english

As FJ said, it use to be a popular crop, we grew it once it fell out of favor as a difficult crop to harvest, seed heads use to be cut by hand, use to itch, the skin, all cut on pice work need to keep going to make any money ,payed per sack cut.

Now we have combines to harvest the crop, we had one in, very little is grown, seems if cane and cassava has taken over 

Some farmers in my area grow white Sorghum and cut it for cattle feed, what FJ said about Jumbo, Jumbo is a hybrid a cross of Napier and Sorghum ,as he said feed to cattle in the cool season, it has no seeds, like Sorghum .

The Sorghum for humans is normally the white seed sorghum the brown seed is mainly used as a livestock feed, humans can eat the brown seeds, but saying that  looking at Lazada it is the brown seed they  sell for humans, must be newer verities around.

Do you mean the red sorgho ? Is it the good one to eat for human ?

No i haven't,only used a couple of their maize varieties.

There is no local market around here to sell to the grain.

Many years a go i grew a variety the Thai's called Jumbo in the cool season for cattle feed.

It grew well with minimal attention

thanks Mate

I use a mix of vegetable oil with sulphur (yellow powder) for the skin. And Ivermectin oral!!!
And this works very well.

Sulphure powder https://www.lazada.co.th/products/1-kg-sulphur-powder-i3250079090-s12076291011.html

Ivermectin https://www.lazada.co.th/products/ivermec-100-ml-280-i1057240016-s2358996327.html

Engine oil isn't a option because it can poison the dog if him lick it.

thanks, how many ml do you inject by kilo ? Only 1 injection or several every month ?

Nope. You are not extending your Visa...

You are applying for an extension of stay.

Ok, so i can renew my passport just before applying for an extension of stay right ? Thanks Mate !

If you apply for extension it will be granted with expiry Sept 2023. 

You should obtain a pp renewal now.

BTW you have an extension of stay not a visa. 

thanks Jack, is there a rule which require 6 months passport validity to extend the visa ?

Have you tried lugging a 12-inch plant pot full of plant and wet/moist soil? Nine plants, twice a day?

I've got exactly the same idea - but think I've resolved it by puttng everything in a small plastic greenhouse. (In my case I'm tying it first in a half-size greenhouse - 1 metre high - using autoflowers which only get to about 2 ft or so . . . )

For you, a 2-metre high greenhouse will allow you room for 7 12-inch pots with a central walk-space.  This one is just under 2,000B with shipping, but it has the clear plastic which the cheaper ones don't have.

What I THINK might be the best lights for this setup I have ordered and are arriving any day soon. Youll need three, as shown in my plan - 1 x 1,250 and 2 x 1,080 (inc post).

https://www.lazada.co.th/products/i3838411038-s14635581025.html?urlFlag=true&mp=1&spm=spm%3Da2o4m.order_details.item_title.1

 

For this to work the plants must get between 4 and 6 hours a day sunlight - the rest will be coming from the lamps - if you run them at night then you don't need  high-wattage lamps to make up the DLI that the plants need. (But if you are growing ordinary photoperiodic (ie non-auto) then take care to not let them get any darkness - if they get less than 12 hours light they'll start to flower.)

The other thing I've discovered is that the advertised wattage and the actual power consumption is miles apart - my present "250 watt" lamps are actuallu using 50 watts between the 2 of them - so I shouldn't worry too much about the electricity cost. (I'm using 280 baht per month - your set-up will be probably double that.)

(You'll also need to site the greenhouse against a wall - so that you can firmly attach it with screws and fittings - mine's survived howling gales . . .)

 

But hang on for a bit until I can report about the new lights I'm getting . . . 

 

Thanks for your good advices, that's very interesting !

Does this mean that you are vegging them indoors then moving them outside? Why do you need to move them?

 

How many plants? What sort of space are they taking up?

 

I've recently bought 3 lots of cheap lights - two of them are quite good . . . 

 

Hi, because the day duration is too short now. I want to plant about 9 trees (photoperiod)  this month and using a lamp for the veggie phase and move them outside during the flowering phase. Or may be, i let them outside all the time but the during the veggie phase, i add the lamp on evening. For example, i expose them to the light from 18 PM to midnight, so they will get about 18 hours of natural and artificial light. I try to find a cheap solution. The lamp for veggie and blooming is very expensive and i don't want to pay a big electricity bill. Is it a good idea do you think ? Cheers

Hi, can you advice me a cheap light for the growth (seedling and vegetative cycle) phase only. During the flowering stage my plants will be outdoor under the sun.

Cheers
