This took longer to figure out than anticipated. It was pretty much the whole morning. After slapping some more mud on the walls we figured out the lighting situation up top. Three lights, each with a dedicated switch, all on the same breaker. Yes, it is easy, if you have experience as an electrician, I do not.
For what it is worth, when you have a good neighbor or friend, choose to do the work yourself over hiring someone because if you are patient and observant you will learn more and you save money. I had initially planned to purchase a whole new shed and then run utilities and such to it, was looking at almost 20k after all the other shit I want and am doing.
The Lion, that old fart has been building, digging, plumbing and zapping since his boots touched Vietnam. 50 years of experience walking me through this makes for a far better investment, and we have only spent 3k.
And now, lights…
Closets have multiple outlets

I’m terrible to work with. I don’t know how to do anything very well, or the name of most tools, and once I get working I mutter to myself a whole lot.
I mean I don’t know what I am doing but I also don’t hide that. I’ll ask for help or instructions and once I get going I go to until the job is done or supplies run out.
Hard work is good for the soul. I’m going through some real life hell right now, and by the end of this month my family will not be together any more. Having this project to bury myself with and his help and instruction is keeping me together.

Hey @Skinnyhb if you dont know all the tools thats ok. Thats how you learn. I learned by doing the work and my uncles and dad showed me how to fix things and working hard on a farm. Youll get there one day. Sorry to hear about the family issues. Be strong man. Just keep moving forward. And never give up.

@970cannetics Day 2 Cherry - 5 seeds have sprouted. 1 of the 5 is 24 hours behind the others. 4 of the 5 have 1 inch root already. Final seed is still fighting the good fight, it has just barely broken open.
Final summation: 6/6 have sprouted!
Shit I need to move these into red cups before I get to work :-/

Man, sorry to hear that. Traumatic life events suck, and definitely take some time to recover from.
Through the process, don’t torture yourself with ‘what ifs’ …it’s a done deal and all your energies should be focused on the path ahead. Be a little extra good to yourself and give yourself time!!!

If this IS covid, I have felt this shitty twice already since it came. Like just about three weeks ago I felt this bad. I’m not worried about it, it’s nice to play videos games for a while.
@970cannetics those Cherry OG are already popping up and off with their shells. This things are growing insanely fast. Zoom in on my images and hopefully you can see what I am talking about.
Day 3

Not COVID - just a bad case of congestion and difficulty breathing - probably another sinus infection
