Since the voltage regulator is adjustable, how do you know where to set it?
Where is the hose?
Paint code?
Over 7-8 years I have a 12-15 foot tree I just planted the acorn like a normal seed in dirt and it grew find after that summer I planted it outside for the winter
I have grown some burr oaks and valley oaks from acorns in pots but they only extist and do not flourish, is there some kind of fertilizer I should be using when they are tiny? I recently transfered some valley oaks to bigger pots, broke off some roots that had grown out the drain holes and one of these roots is starting to grow oak leaves, is this common?
Thank you!!!!
I have been using Amsoil and PPE filter, not sure if its worth the money
I am doing the same. When we have zero issues with our engines, we'll know if it was worth it.
the squirrels in my area are impossible to deal with, they destroy everything. i put a bunch of 6 to 9 inch tall baby oaks that i had started indoors over the winter and they killed every single one
As someone whom planted trees, hundreds of trees. Planting them directly where you want them, works better then planting them in a container. For me. Also, the PH, and location can be quirky, so, you need to make sure the tree wants to be there. dont plant a swamp oak, on top of a mountain. Also, 40% peat? whoa. I've never seen anyone use that much peat moss. But, we also mix with local soil. So, we know our local soil's clay content, or, sand, etc.
Delete the truck and get rid of DEF. The delete will pay for itself in a few years.
I collected a handful of acorns and took them home and did the float test on them and they all floated so I decided to put them in the fridge for a couple months anyways. When I took them out and germinated and all of them started growing.
Thanks for posting! I collected 100 white oak acorns and have planted them all. Did not know they did not need stratified so the germination has been a little slower. Despite float testing all, nearly 2 months, there are only 3 seedlings popping up so am hoping that they will all come. But definitely slower than I anticipated. Patience is definitely required but so satisfying to know they will be safe from deer and wildlife and can be planted in time!
Thank you😻 I tried to germinate Live Oaks here in the low mountains of northern Calif’ at 1000’ to 2000’. i failed. Do u have any suggestions for Live & Blue oaks. I did clean for holes but not sure how long to stratify. Great program🌿🌳
Keep on doing great job 👍👍👍👍
I have a one wire alternator on my car it is a 1972 a body Dodge dart
Thanks for the great video..do you have one on Live Oaks? I'm from Louisiana and the pine beetles have killed the pines on our property so I'm going to plant for the next generation!
This is cool stuff! Silly question: Are the acorns any good if they were not collected before a frost/freeze?
Great tips! During stratification keep those acorns moist in sand or peatmoss. Deep channeled pots for the developing roots sake are my takeaways.
Where did you order those 12 inch long pots from?
Try using 2 year old dead fall leaves. Pile, let stand for a year and dig out the partially de-composed leaves at the very bottom of the pile after decomposing all summer, in place of peat moss. Packs well in pots and has lots of natural nutrients and good drainage. White oaks crop every year, and some like red have banner years and nearly none the next. I have put these oak seeds under a leaf pile and cover for winter, then uncover and put in pots with the root starting to grow. Putting pots OUT of direct sunlight is best as the summer sun can scorch the leaves. I usually start about 2 dozen each year and re-use the pots...put them out across my hunting property up north where oaks are scarce...knowing that I won't benefit from the crop myself, but someone will thank me some day.
Nice! I'm trying this!
Thank you so much for this ❤️
Just found your video. When starting these trees an they start growing do they need to be kept indoors over the winter or do they need to stay outside so the tree will know the seasons. Say like I started growing one in the spring an decided to keep it in the pot an not plant it that year an waited till the following spring to plant so where does it need to be stored that winter. Thanks
What’s your recommended interval for both of these oils?
I change it close to 5K miles and it's over maintained
Just what I've been looking for!
The best time time to plant a tree is 25 years ago. The next best time is today.
I did a test run on my Champion Power Equipment 100520 8750-Watt DH Series Open Frame Inverter today. Number 1 problem is RFI. If you have AM Radios, then forget this generator. The RFI is no where near as low as my 1990 Honda EX4500 which does not interfere with my AM radios. This Champion 100520 will not be replacing my EX4500. It will remain a good higher wattage back up.
If I am just using paper towels for the germination process on white oak acorns, how wet should I keep them and should the container be covered?
How about nc live oak? Stratification??
Did you have to ground one of the field terminals on the back of the alternator?
Yes, if you use the older style regular. I switched to the new style two wire regulator. Very easy install and they are rated for higher amps.
Ok so I should put back the insulating washer back on the field terminal and buy a pig tail to connect both wires to the new mopar eletronic voltage regulator?
At what stage in their development can you pick them, can you pick them early and let them finish off in your window like a tomato or an apple Does anybody know?
Dude it this a Generator review or Motor Oil PROMOTION??????
👍👍👍
Have you ever tried using a squirrel ? Hey they are pretty handy this way. Gives you time to kick back and have a beer. And them old oak trees, why they just about grow themselves
I use Castrol Edge “Unlock Maximum Performance”. It has the same ACEA C5 standard called out for the approved Mobil 1 Dexos D. The difference is, Castrol didn’t pay the extra funds - to become an exclusive GM approved product.
Thanks for watching. Castrol edge is a GTL based oil so it’s similar to the ACDelco oil. It’s really not comparable to the Mobil ESP oil. I often hear people say oil meets a spec but the company won’t pay for to be GM approved. Every major oil supplier that has an oil will get theirs approved because it opens up their sales. Proof is, if you look at the list of Dexos 1 oils they include every major supplier, including Castrol. Further proof, Castrol does have an approved oil for these trucks, it’s the Castrol edge turbo diesel. So if their standard edge meets the spec, it too would be listed as an approved product. www.gmdexos.com/brands/dexosd/index.html
@@markshep03 Thank you. I appreciate the reply. And. Please don’t take this as a an argument. I am genuinely curious. If the Castrol Edge “Unlock Maximum Performance” and the Mobil 1 Dexos D provide the exact same specs, what makes one better than the other? The particular oil I am mentioning mirrors the same standards of the X2 (ACEA C5, API, SP). Isn’t that all I am looking for?
You’re talking out of your ass. Castrol does have a Dexos-d oil it’s called “Castrol EDGE Turbo Diesel” in the 0w-20 weight. Don’t buy a $70k truck and screw around with going against what GM recommends.
@@thomaseynon6205oils meeting the same specs perform nearly identical. And even Castrol does recommend any of their products for the 3.0
Dumb question from a newbie: what did you do to splice the wires?
You should get a magnetic dipstick to collect metal particles.
I have had Blackstone analysis for three oil changes with OEM oil and filter (2020 LM2). Every time it comes back with over 1500 miles of oil protection left. I even checked the last two at 0% oil life reported by truck. At 32K nothing out of ordinary and over 1k miles of protection remaining (0% life/around 7k on oil). At this point I see no proof that I need to pay more for oil or filter or change oil before truck tells me. I will continue to have my oil analyzed every other oil change to keep eyes on the health of my engine. I started checking my oil after having some dealerships say change it at 10-20% oil life and others saying 0% because extra miles were already accounted for by engineers. I even got the same story from Lexus about their 10k miles oil change. So far 0% is right because my results are coming back good for my truck. They also said to check oil level regularly. If I develop an oil leak/burn oil I could run out of oil between oil changes. So do your own analysis because everyone uses their truck differently. A $45 test can save money on maintenance and engine repairs.
How is u duramax ? Any issue ? How many miles now ?
0w-20 is why you have "oil burning" issues, it's meant for "fuel economy" to please epa. Use 5w-30 after break-in and oil consumption will go away.
Thanks for watching! There are many of these trucks that don’t burn any oil. So if it was the oil only causing the issue it would happen to the all. There is a TSB to replace the valve cover on some of these because it causes the engine to burn oil.
Wrong. Don’t change manufacturers recommended weight. Gale Banks has a video on this and says do NOT change the weight of oils.
@@ZmannR2 I agree I would stick with the 0w20 especially while under warranty. I don't think using a heavier weight oil to top off between oil changes would hurt anything since such a small amount isn't going to drastically impact the weight of the overall blend in the sump. It might actually restore some of the sheering if you top off with something like a 5w30 or a 0w40. If you're 0w20 sheered down to a 0w18, adding some 30 or 40 weight oil to the top off might restore some of the viscosity and bring it back closer to a 20w.
Nice video and thanks for all the information you provided. Using this mobile one oil. How many miles do you go before changing. I get mines done at the dealership for free twice a year for the life of my 2022 refresh 1500 baby duramax. They want me to go 7,000 between oil changes. But truthfully i don't know what kind of oil they're using.
Thanks for watching! I’m going to about 10% life with the Mobil oil. If I was still running the ACDelco oil I would probably go to 20%. I personally have not done any oil sampling, however the ones I’ve seen are still fine at 7,500.
AMSOIL diesel oil 0w-20 is DexosD oil
Thanks for watching. I’ve got a video out on the oil I use now. It’s the Mobil ESP x2 0w-20
I want an inverter generator so I’m watching videos to help narrow down my options
We have had 4 oak trees start in our lawn this year. Probably mowed them off a couple of times. I will transplant them soon and not mow them off. The squirrels must have planted them. There are oak trees about a 1/4 mile away. Thanks for the video.
Kind of unclear, can this oil be used with Diesel trucks?
Yes, it’s approved by GM for the 3.0 Duramax.
If you are wanting to keep them in the containers till they are 2 years old do you keep them indoors over the winter or keep them outdoors so they experience natural temperatures?
I took my 2 day old 2023 RST 3.0 4x4 in for a software update and got it back an hour later with a nice ding on the cab behind the drivers side passenger door. Never going to take it back to a dealer unless absolutely necessary.
Great video. Some information here contradicts what I've seen in other videos with respect to starting Bur Oaks (particularly related to preserving the tap root vs. starting in Rootmaker pots). But what you say makes sense--seems like the tap root is pretty important to these trees. Now, a question: Lots of videos on UA-cam on how to 'start' Bur Oaks from acorns. But need details on when, in the development cycle, is the best time to transfer them to the ground, and tips for ensuring they survive and thrive once transferred. Thanks!
