Yeah I will do that on the next one perhaps also learning soap making too as a result. This one has had so many firings its full of holes and I ended up putting the bit I cut out in the bottom just to stop some of the airflow.
Trying something new with making the #biochar. Some people who have being this far longer than I have like Cuauhtemoch Villa quench the char directly with some microbes like this bokashi extension . Apparently it imparts something to the char I assume like the bioceramic making process which is clay fermented with em and then fired. Obviously this kills the microbes but the ceramic continues to emit infrared light after the process! ๐ค
Well I tried it and it certainly puts the fire out a lot faster.๐คท

Another interesting development from the Vietnam War.
The Vietnam War was a highly successful testing ground for Monsanto and their herbicide products (Agent Orange) which was used to strip vegetation in Vietnam during this time.
The contract(s) Monsanto formed with the U.S. goverment, brought in a golden opportunity [Pun intended] to research and develop a whole host of new products.
One of which was the development and production of Glyphosate (Roundup) that has been and currently is, applied to food crop systems world wide.
After years of legal battles involving health complications from people using their herbicides and other products, in 2018 a company acquisition was finalized between Mosanto and Bayer.
That's right the same Bayer that provides readily available medication for health ailments.
Bayer's Crop Science Division offers products ranging from herbicides, pesticides, fungicides to even "genetically enhanced" seeds for major crops like corn, soybeans and wheat. They are used more and more throughout the world with every passing year.
Talk about going full circle.

Part of agent orange is 2,4-D. As it doesn't affect grasses it is often found in weed and feed. ๐คฆโโ๏ธ
๐We have sorted it all out for. Your fighting 1st April 2025 'Scorn for Dawn' Hand to hand in the sand live on zap.stream. It's on
Be curious what the gambling odds are though, they seem against you at the moment ๐
Clearly a livestream of you fighting little dude cant believe I have to explain that ๐
Going to email Irvine Finkel
I don't know what zap.stream's mission statement as a company is but I reckon it this
I don't think they are going for accuracy, they couldn't even get the UK flag right even during that period of time it didn't look like that ๐คฆโโ๏ธ
I hadnt realised until I got here that the yew tree I grew at home is completely different colour to the synthetic fertiliser grown nursery plants to the right of it ๐ซฃ.
Which is funny because it's the same colour as all the other English yew I have at my house. So I assume the quality of the soil at home is helping drive the colour difference here.

I have been going down a bio ceramic rabbit hole after realising I am able to to source it from Teraganix.
Have you tried out these or something similar? nostr:nprofile1qy28wumn8ghj7un9d3shjctzd3jjummjvuhsz9thwden5te0wfjkccte9e6xj6nv9eu8j730qythwumn8ghj7un9d3shjtnswf5k6ctv9ehx2ap0qyfhwumn8ghj76nddahhxefwwfhkx6mn9uq3wamnwvaz7tmjv4kxz7fwwvehstnnda3kjctv9uqzqxlfxfsk37h57hh3sac2k93lutpxhszf6gffsxrrwlxuqvald9s54zfyns
You can't own all those ducks without being accused of being on the weirdo spectrum ๐
Got another suggestion very different but interesting to consider and contrast with weird experiences you might have had in your own life. And you are clearly a weirdo Dawn ๐ so I think you will like it: The Daemon by Anthony Peake
I just prune then I ram the cuttings in the ground they always seem to root.. that going to finding a pot thing smacks of effort ๐
If anything I think the peroxide would be more detrimental to them rooting than helping your going to be oxidising a load of microbes out of existence including the good ones. Its a bit like when people used to sterilise the soil years ago to remove pathogens they kill all the good guys and the bad guys usually end up establishing themselves faster.
Dunking them in some EM, or even just yeast and labs would be better. Or just push them into well cared for soil.
Yeah that's is part of my point cost of living is way higher in Europe. Energy, fuel, housing all the taxes VAT, income tax, inheritance etc. Sure you might get social care paid for in some instances but living on half the median in the UK is way harder than half the median in the USA so that's why I don't buy it.
Nah that's some bullshit, half the median disposable income doesn't represent poverty accurately. The median disposable income is way higher in the USA than Europe because you get paid way more and taxed way less. Also the super rich are pushing the median way higher.
Excuse Daily Mail link but this is Tony Blairโs obsession with a system of control of everyone. Itโs going on as weโre all distracted

Where is Poseidon when you need him?
Yeah futuristic chicken coop too might get a few more if all goes well and I can find the space.
Yeah would be nice if the joints were stainless steel, I will try and get a kit this year and give it a go as I need more outdoor cover.
An easy way to build a geodesic dome. Just got to justify a use for it now ๐

Well... I know it's added to our water. Do Brita filters filter it out? E.g. https://store.brita.com.au/collections/water-filters If not, then we're in trouble. ๐ซฃ๐ฑ๐ฅด
They are usually carbon with some silver to prevent bacterial growth. Pretty sure they don't even make one for fluoride. Unfortunately fluoride filters are more expensive the other option is a reverse osmosis system (again not as cheap as a carbon filter).
Indeed, just need to find the problem. Its out there and I keep seeing it just need a contact.
After some Japanese knotweed to make more
fertiliser if anyone in the #uk knows of anyone that has it in area where it can be harvested without it being a legal issue....contacted an organic farm recently but they decided to get it 'treated' prior to me contacting them so I basically back to square one again....
