This Archive includes the links to everything shared for Blockheads 4 - Designer blocks, Bonus blocks, setting options, blog posts, and so on. We'll update this every week as new blocks are released. The link to the Designer blog and the Block Instructions will be added on Wednesday by 8:00 AM CDT.
Commercially available blockers range in size for 3/4", 2" and 4". You are able to purchase inserts which allow the 3/4" blocks to nest in the 2" block and the 2" block to nest into the 4" block. Thus you can start small seeds in the 3/4" blocks, as soon as they emerge they can be placed into the 2" block. The 2" block is good for most all seeds. The 3/4" is good for small seeds such as celery, parsley, peppers, eggplant can be started in 3/4" blocks, but should be transplanted in the 2" blocks as soon as the plant emerges.
The roots will grow until they reach the edge of the soil blocks. They will stay there ready and willing to reach out to and grow once they are placed in soil. As opposed to plants in containers which will become root bound.
The key to success with soil blocks is using a mix of peat, compost, soil, and sand or Perlite. The most important ingredient to this mixture is the peat - Its Fibrous consistency is used to both bind the material together and help retain moisture. You can either mix your own mixture or you can buy a pre made mix for soil blocks. I have done both. There are a number of block mixtures on the market - Johnny's Seed makes a mixture 512 mix, which I have used in the past. One thing to consider- you cannot use traditional potting soil for soil blocks- It is not the right consistency. A blocking mixture needs the peat to bind everything together and retain moisture.
Once you plant your seeds you will probably not need to water, if planted in freshly made blocks, for probably two to three days. When watering, you should use a fine mist to water the blocks. Water the block from the bottom up. Do not use a large or course water flow as it will erode the block. I use a misting bottle.
Plain bearing blocks Barton plain bearing blocks have a precision moulded acetal sheave running on a large diameter brass bearing, ensuring free running under the highest of loads. Ball bearing blocks With our unique super-low friction ball race systems, featuring acetal sheaves and delrin ball bearings, running on a large diameter centre boss. This allows us to fit more load-bearing balls, which ensure extremely low friction performance, even under high loads.

Memcheck tracks all memory reads, writes, allocations, and deallocations in a C or C++ program. The tool can detect many different memory errors. For instance, it detects reads or writes before or after allocated memory blocks. It warns about the use of (partially) undefined values in conditional code or passing such values to system calls. It will also notify you about bad or double deallocation of memory blocks. But for now, we will discuss memory leak detection with Memcheck.
Memcheck reports leaks in five categories: definitely lost, indirectly lost, possibly lost, still reachable, and suppressed. The first four categories indicate different kinds of memory blocks that weren't freed before the program ended. If you aren't interested in specific blocks, you can tell Valgrind not to report them (you'll see how shortly). The summary also shows you the number of bytes lost and how many blocks they are in, which tells you whether you are losing lots of small allocations, or a few large ones.
Note that Memcheck found three leaks, which it reports as one loss record because they have identical backtraces. By default, it requires the whole backtrace to be the same in order to consider leaks similar enough to report together. If you want Memcheck to combine more leaks, you can use --leak-resolution=low or --leak-resolution=med to group leaks that have only two or four backtrace entries in common. This is useful if Memcheck reports lots of leaks with slightly different backtraces that you suspect are probably the same issue. You can then concentrate on the record with the highest number of bytes (or blocks) lost.
In the previous example, it is clear we should free banner after use. We could do that at the end of the output_report function by adding free (banner). Then, when running under Valgrind again, it will happily say All heap blocks were freed -- no leaks are possible.
Note how we again forget to call free, this time at the end of main. Now, when running under Valgrind, Memcheck will report still reachable: 14 bytes in 1 blocks and zero bytes lost in any other category.
But the output offers no details of loss records with backtraces for memory blocks that are still reachable, even though we ran with --leak-check=full. This is because Memcheck thinks the error is not very serious. The memory is still reachable, so the program could still be using it. In theory, you could free it at the end of the program, but all memory is freed at the end of the program anyway.
Although still reachable memory isn't a real issue in theory, you might still want to look into it. You might want to see whether you could free a given block earlier, which might lower memory usage for longer running programs. Or because you really like to see that statementAll heap blocks were freed -- no leaks are possible. To get the details you need, add --show-leak-kinds=reachable or --show-leak-kinds=all to the Valgrind command line (together with --leak-check=full). Now you will also get backtraces showing where still reachable memory blocks were allocated in your program.
When we compile this program with gcc -Wall -g -o possibly possibly.c and then run it under Valgrind with valgrind --leak-check=full ./possibly, Valgrind reports possibly lost: 72 bytes in 4 blocks. And because we ran with --leak-check=full, it also reports the backtraces:
Memcheck calls this memory possibly lost because it can still see how to access the blocks of memory. The numbers pointer points to the third block of numbers. If we kept some extra information, we could theoretically count backward to the beginning of this block of memory and access the rest of the information, or deallocate the whole block and the other memory it points to.
But Memcheck thinks this is most likely a mistake. And in our example, as in most such cases, Memcheck is right. When walking a data structure without keeping a reference to the structure itself, we can never reuse or free the structure. We should have used the numbers pointer as a base and used an (array) index to pass the current record as output_report (&numbers[i]). Then, Memcheck would have reported the data blocks as still reachable. (There is still a memory leak, but not a severe one, because there is a direct pointer to the memory and it could easily be freed.)
In the previous example Memcheck reported a possibly lost block because the numbers pointer was still pointing inside an allocated block. We might be tempted to fix it by simply clearing the pointer after the output_report calls by doing numbers = NULL; to indicate that there is no current numbers list to report. But then we have also just lost the last pointer to our memory data blocks. We should have freed the memory first, but we can't do it now because we don't have a pointer to the start of the data structure anymore:
Now Memcheck will report the memory as definitely lost. And because the memory block contained pointers to other memory blocks, those blocks are reported as indirectly lost. If we run with --leak-check=full we see a backtrace for the main numbers memory block:
Note how there are no backtraces for the indirectly lost blocks. This is because Memcheck believes you will probably fix that when you fix the definitely lost block. If you do free the definitely lost block, but not the blocks of memory that were indirectly pointed to, next time you run your partially fixed program under Valgrind, Memcheck will report those indirectly lost blocks as definitely lost (and now with a backtrace). So by iteratively fixing the definitely lost memory leaks, you will eventually fix all indirectly lost memory leaks.
If you cannot immediately find the definitely lost block that caused some indirectly lost blocks, it might be informative to see the backtraces for where the indirectly lost blocks were created. When using --leak-check=full you can do that by adding --show-leak-kinds=reachable or --show-leak-kinds=all to the valgrind command line.
By default, Memcheck counts definitely lost and possibly lost blocks as errors with --leak-check=full. It will also show where those blocks were allocated. It doesn't regard indirectly lost blocks or still reachable lost blocks as errors by default. And it won't show backtraces for where those still reachable or indirectly lost blocks were allocated, unless explicitly asked to do so with --show-leak-kinds=all.
Indirectly lost blocks will disappear (or turn into definitely lost blocks) when you resolve the definitely lost issues. Without definitely lost blocks, there can be no indirectly lost blocks. For reachable blocks, it might still make sense to see whether you can deallocate them early, in order to lower memory usage of your program. Or explicitly free them at the end of your program to make sure all memory is really accounted for and cleaned up.
There won't be any more output for any of the suppressed blocks. But if you want to see which suppressions were used, you can add --show-error-list=yes (or -s) to the valgrind command line. That option makes Valgrind show the suppression name, suppression file, line number, and how many bytes and blocks were suppressed by that suppression rule: 781b155fdc
