On my continual search to see what I eat will continue to grow, this one is finally making progress. To be honest first one I started gave it about two weeks and saw nothing so I pitched it and started over with a new one. I think it was just impatient.

The big bean looking seed must sent the upwards part out the side right along side of the pot.

The one in the background is another mango seed not as progressed as this one, but working its way.

When I started these I soaked the seeds in water for day and cut the membrane shell thing off.

The bigger ones are the grapefruit that go in a ring around that dirt. Lemon seeds in the middle.

Built them a sauna with food container. And they were off. This is the progress of 3 weeks time.

With some information dug up from the forums I tonight collected the needed brake upgrade for my car. More info found here and here.

This will allow me to run about 1 inch large rotors all around, just by getting the proper caliper mounting brackets used on the cars that ran these rotors stock.  The benefit of this upgrade is I can reuse my 2 pot front and rear calipers and run wrx pads all around.  From rockauto.com I was able to source all of the needed brackets for 79 bucks for this upgrade. Then picked the rotors and pads of my choice.

  Before After
Front 10.1 11.5 (2002 Impreza WRX)
Rear 10.4 11.4 (2001 Legacy)

This should be a fairly nice upgrade for the money.  Next we wait for packages and the next warm day, then is when the real fun comes into the room.. bedding the brakes 😀

Ended up with Raybestos rotors and StopTech pads total was under 400 with extra hardware I needed to replace.
