- What's up FishTank people?
Fishtanktv.com DustinFishTanks bringing it to you.
On a Greenhouse Saga Sunday.
How's everybody doing?
I hope you're doing well.
So, in last weeks video we talked about how I finally got a building permit.
Man, does that feel good and we also talked about how I got oversized and over engineered
and overpriced giant piers to put the greenhouse in.
But, unfortunately they did not measure them properly.
When they dug up.
I'm gonna talk about how I had to deal with that punch in the face And in today's greenhouse
saga were gonna show how we finally got some vertical action on the greenhouse.
We're also gonna give you a sneak peak about the Fluval F90 that I worked on at my friend's
house and a 900 gallon that I finally got my hands on up at the Newport Aquarium.
But no Greenhouse Saga Sunday is complete without Dusty getting a little bit of woo
woo.
It'll give a little bit of motivation here.
It's gonna start.
We're gonna talk about holes a little later on.
We're gonna talk about a dip right now.
We're gonna talk about something called the dip and a book called the dip by my man Seth
Gordon.
And the basic premise of the dip is this, it kind of relates back to my affirmation.
Some of you all have it.
One of the things it says is I'll postpone short-term gratification.
You can't get what you want in life, without paying the price and enduring the suffering
to get it.
Let me explain the dip real quickly...
I think you'll like this.
This is how the dip works.
This is a blank piece of paper, that my daughter so elegantly spilled some tea on earlier today,
and this is how the dip works.
This is you over here.
Okay, you are all excited.
Over here is something that you want, something that is big, something that is cool.
In my case it is a 36 foot by 36 foot, atrium style greenhouse, with an eight foot wide
vent.
And, uh, over here is another building that's gonna go on top of it.
And I can't draw so I'll just put it like this, whatever.
But, this is my big, like, wow, I want this thing, okay.
Like, this is what I want to do.
Now, here's me, here's this.
Most people think, oh ya, it goes in a straight line.
No, you have to go through what's called the dip.
No one ever wants to talk about this but this is how you get to this.
This is good, this is what I want.
This is my goal, this is my vision.
It is not a straight line across and in fact it's not happy.
Sometimes it has to suck.
Right here this is me.
This is me going down, this is me with a frown on my face.
This is when stuff sucks.
You have to go through the dip, okay?
This is a lot more money leaving my pocket than I would like to spend.
This is the delay of my final development plan.
This is the delay to the weather.
This is a delay to, oh, I don't know, giant piers that are being done wrong.
You're going to have to go through some sort of a suffering.
It's going to happen if you want to get to here.
Now, you guys have watched this whole saga right here.
I'm right about here.
This is Dusty and I'm not like happy but I'm not like too pissed off and I'm kind of just
like here and I've got one eye.
And that's where I sit.
Now, I've gone through all this stuff that sucks and now it's time to come this way.
Everybody has to understand that if you want anything good in life, it's not just gonna
happen, it doesn't just happen.
You have to make it happen and you have to go through the dip.
You want to start a new business, you got to go through the work to do it.
You want to lose weight, you gotta go run and do the push ups.
Push ups don't do themselves.
You have to go through the dip to get to what you want.
You guys want a video that's edited down to about 12 minutes.
My best performing Instagram post is an entire 1:25 that I edited down to 60 seconds 'cause
everybody wants it now, now, now.
But, to get what you want in life, you have to postpone short term gratification, for
your long term life goals.
So, just understand whenever you go to start something there's going to be a dip.
And guess what happens when you embrace the dip?
And Seth Gordon says "When you lean into the dip, the dip creates a chasm, "which separates
you from the others."
Which is why I happen to get, after five years of hustling and making fish tanks my job,
an opportunity to do a 900 gallon aquarium at the Newport Aquarium.
That didn't just show up in the mail.
That was earned over five years of work.
And just for the record the 900 gallon did beat me up a little.
I got a couple of cuts on my hand, I took a little shrapnel to the face.
We actually broke a sledge hammer so I'm super excited to be showing you all how it when
down and my first 900 gallon, four foot by four foot by four foot cube.
I also have a Fluval F90 coming out that I did over at neighbor Marnice's house, little
bit easier to scape than a 900.
So stay tuned for those.
So, make sure you hit the notification button and subscribe button.
So when those videos drop over this holiday season you will be the first to get them.
So back to the greenhouse.
Slowly coming up the other part of the dip here.
The other part of the half pipe.
The fun part of the half pipe.
Where Matt Hoffman and all the other great BMXers and go and goand sail up into the air.
But first we gotta get through these holes.
And real quick just to talk about holes, talk about dips, talk about fails, yes I actually
spoke to the folks at RBI. 'cause don't know why I didn't contact them earlier about what
the dimensions of these holes should be.
There currently three foot by five foot deep.
With rebar inside of them.
Typically they're only supposed to be 18 inches in diameter by about four feet deep.
So I definitely got them way over engineered.
You can bet your bottom dollar that I bomb it.
In greenhouse 3.0 they're gonna be a little bit smaller.
I'm gonna save myself some cheddar but look, you get punched in the mouth.
You live and learn.
Now it's time to go to the other side of the dip.
Okay, so, let's see here, two or three days before Thanksgiving these holes are being
dug.
My man Adam with Hemingway Concrete.
The guy who did greenhouse 1.0's concrete son is out there and yes he mis-measures holes.
Accidents happen, look we have mistakes here around here every now and then.
Things happen, it's all right.
He wanted to scoot the greenhouse back about six inches.
No can I get a no, can I get a heck no?
We're going to do this right.
He didn't want to hear it 'cause I made him redo the holes on a personal level.
It's my understanding too that Adam also apparently had a hot date that following evening.
So he was not too thrilled to find out that I was making him redo three out of eight of
the piers that he did.
Now, he redid those, we do it right, he moved and we got him measured up.
And the day before before Thanksgiving this year, the concrete was set to come to put
the piers up.
Let me just tell you folks I don't know what it is but there is something sexy about galvanized
steel about to go down into concrete.
Maybe it's just 'cause I've been waiting forever for it.
But watching these piers go down into the concrete was a lot of fun.
Check this out.
And this is what I'm sitting in my sweet mini-van.
Mini-van that has traveled me over here many a time where I've looked at nothing and today
for a change for the first time I get to see pillars, when I pull up.
The future.
I actually see my vision.
Something that I have postponed.
The short term gratification that I've waited on to start.
We're not done, the building is still a mess, the greenhouse is you know five poles in.
But by golly it has started the day before Thanksgiving.
And it feels pretty freaking good too, just seeing the poles in the air, set right.
These are the guys, they know what they're doing.
The concrete truck was two hours late and we're still waiting on one more to do the
other side.
But by the end of today I will leave this property and I will see one, two, three, four,
five six, seven, eight poles, hopefully, sitting in the air.
And I want to make a note on this too while I'm sitting here this is the day before Thanksgiving,
all right.
When you're working on a project not everyone is going to see your vision.
Not everyone is gonna care.
All right, my wife is home with two kids, we're getting ready, Thanksgiving is the following
day and she wants to hang out with the family.
But I am sacrificing time with my family, waiting on a concrete truck 'cause I want
to see my vision.
So note while your working on something that's awesome for you, there might be other people
in the past that have suffered.
I know a lot of YouTubers that have sacrificed a lot with their family, their personal health,
their mental health, and what have you.
When you're working on something there are going to be some sacrifices.
I enjoy this time.
My kids could care less when I came home and showed them I had poles in the air.
Round two, fight!
Let's do it.
So they ran out of concrete.
They didn't run out.
I don't know whatever.
They delivered more and here it is.
And at five o'clock, the day before Thanksgiving when I'm suppose to be home with my wife and
kids, I serendipitously am ending the setting of the pillars.
We got eight in the ground today.
So it's kind of dope.
The sun is setting right there.
I'm super excited and unshowered 'cause today I was gonna be playing in the mud.
But it's pretty awesome.
Let's go check it out.
Good work boys.
Happy Thanksgiving to Dusty.
That's fun man.
There are worst ways to spend the day before Thanksgiving.
Tank on.
And on a super personal woo woo note.
This is my 95-year-old grandfather pounding a cheese burger that I fetched for him.
Even though everyone around said I shouldn't feed him.
He housed half of it.
You see the look on his face, he's happy to see me, actually sat up and said, "You came
all the way to see me?"
He's got four kids and a slew of grandkids, I'm one of them.
This is a photo of a koi he took while he was stationed in Japan after WWII.
How awesome is that?
I actually got to sit an talk with him for a minute about over Thanksgiving break.
What is my grandpa thinking about right now that he wishes he had done during his 95 years
in this life while he sits on his death bed.
You only live once.
Do something fun, do something you love.
