Yes I have a big deer problem! I use 2 different electric fences. In the garden picture you can see the white electrified tape. this has 2 sets of fencing about 3 feet apart. the outer fence has 1 ribbon about 3 feet high the inner fence has 2 ribbons at 18 inches and 4 feet. the deer can jump it but the 3 dimensional look of it confuses them so they approach the fence with caution and put their nose on he outer fence and take a hit some folks put aluminum foil on the outer fence and smear it peanut butter or apple flavor to attract the deer then get shocked. my other garden has a 6 foot high single fence. The deer can jump this too but I stagger the steel, ribbon and nylon twine with the ribbon at about 3 feet high. Again this white electrified ribbon is a visual queue to the deer making them approach it and touch it with their nose. So far I have been very lucky and all the deer have stayed away from the gardens for 3 years. The E fence controllers put out 3-10,000 volts! One is both battery or 120 volts the other is just 120 volts

@SGTSmeg you asked a question about growing garlic. I grow the Hard neck variety called Music. Hard neck have fewer but larger cloves per bulb. They(Hard neck) have a woody stock in the centre. They are more hardy in colder, northern areas and tend to last longer. Depending on location and severity of winter HN are planted in the fall 2-3 weeks before the ground freeze’s. This allows the garlic clove to set roots. HN garlic must go through a cold dormant spell before sprouting in the very early spring. HN garlic can withstand diverse soil types but really loves a soil with a lot of organic matter. Most garlic plantings benefit from a thick layer of mulch when planted. The mulch alleviates multiple freeze thaw cycles which will damage the new developing roots. I live 2 miles from the coast and experience several drastic freeze thaw cycles most winters. Therefore I use a very thick mulch, I even have to hold the mulch down with weighted wire fence material or it will blow away. HN garlic produce a flower step called a scape. The scapes should be removed allowing the garlic to concentrate on bulb development rather than flowering. The flower turns to a thing called bulbils. Bulbils can be planted but it would take 2-3 years to propagate bulbs of an size. Garlic must be dried out of the sun with good air circulation for 2-3 weeks. This allows the nutrition from the leaves to be drawn into the cloves. Once dried the roots and stocks should be cut off the dirt can be rubbed off not washed as water will promote rot. One of the thin skins should be removed allowing for a very clean pristine garlic bulb. Here are a couple of pictures from last year’s crop after being cleaned up. If anyone has a few questions I’ll try and answer.

After last years 90% garden loss due to flooding, deer and Colorado potato Beatles 2022 is showing great potential. My Garlic harvest has been a great success. If you are wondering what the heck I’m doing growing so much food? I just enjoy gardening! I love sharing with family, friends, neighbours and anyone who visits. I particularly love sharing with people needing a little help. Some days I make up little packages and deliver them to my senior relatives. It’s always nice to help out the local soup kitchens. Nothing goes to waist. I love canning string beans, tomatoes and things. My onions and potatoes last 4-6 months, the garlic lasted from August last year until June this year….we ran out I gave too much away lol. Enjoy the pictures, share your photos of anything you’ve grown. Big or small we’ll love them all.

The weather was too hot! I saw 2 for 2 seconds. Couldn't get my gun up! Viagra wouldn't of helped! When we get skunked we say we had a great time enjoying being out doors with nature. Sadly I didn't bring any nature home to eat.

Found this. Can’t post the link but here is one answer from a forum. Some BIOS manufacturers have a separate save action for user preferences. This could be because the boot order is maybe considered to be user preferences by those BIOS manufacturers. It does make it a bit confusing as they also have a regular option called 'Save and Exit' or 'Save and Reset' which don't seem to save the boot order preferences. After you make the change to the boot order it is simply not sufficient to 'Save and Exit' or 'Save and Reset'. You need to first save the changes as User Defaults and then any one of the above 2 options. Boot back in to the BIOS and you should see the boot order stick to what you wanted. This is most commonly seen in AMI BIOS -- I have seen this in many server boards like TYAN S5533, Supermicro X9, X10 & X11. See if you have an option similar to 'Save User Defaults' or 'Save Defaults' somewhere in your BIOS and try it out.

I’m not too sharp with this sort of thing lol! Just smart enough to ask stupid questions. I seem to remember folks saying switch the cables from one HD to the other. Maybe I dreamt that.

@X-RayXI my case is almost opposite of yours. My P/S is at the top exhaust fan blowing out. My CPU water cooler is in the bottom bringing (intake) air in from the bottom. My one larger rear fan above the water cooler exhaust out the rear. My front two intake fans bring air into the case. The top front intake fan blows across my video card. The bottom front intake fan blows across my water cooler. Weed

Cooler water pump is a Corsair H100iGTX it has a 2 fan rad with hoses to the cpu/heat sync, the rad is bottom mounted over the bottom case vents. Al kinds of room in the case for this card if i decide on it.

Nice. I like the Rhubarb cake with the cinnamon sugar topping! Mmm

The card is used from someone who is always upgrading! He grabbed this one as most people might realize last year or two cards were hard to find. His new card will be here Wednesday. I have first refusal on the card. That’s why I’m inquiring about it. For my system and my games it should last be a very long time. My week link is my monitor 32 inch Samsung curved a bit older I believe it’s only 60hz. Nice picture for these old eyes.

I have a large Corsair case and 850 watt Corsair PS. My Mother board is an Asus ROG Maximus VIII Hero. Processor is I7-6700K. Three case fans and a water cooler on the processor. I'm running a 1T SSD. I believe I'm good to go.
