Indeed lots of things up close start looking like an abstract painting ๐. Sometimes hard to keep it in focus up close but beautiful.
Good night, I recently woke up ๐. I saw a sign that said DAWN in big red letters in my dream. I was on the bus and I didn't photograph it in time so I have to tell you about it now, otherwise I would have tagged you in a note via dream amethyst (astralyst?!). Sorry about that ๐
By the looks of things, I am pretty sure she just ate Yoshi
Looks interesting I will check it out thanks

๐ค He probably just found out we don't get free prescriptions in England.
Could be a lamb though, its the right time of year and we had them in the garden I worked in today until we worked out all the place they were sneaking in.
Good question, must be a mammal I would guess a deer, rabbit or some kind of Welshman. Perhaps if the other stuff wasn't eaten it was more after medicine than lunch even if its not something they would usually eat.
That is the most random combination of items to represent a wolf I have ever seen but it works. ๐ Does she like blueberry, ducks and ice cream cones too? ๐
It's genius just needs inoculating ๐ . It is another rabbit hole to explore for your biochar experience. Once you have the pond inoculated you can use the pond to inoculate your new biochar so you have gone full circle ๐.
Sounds proper grim up north, you two never get any rain ๐
It might help but purple non sulphur bacteria will clean it out beautifully and its good for the plants and fish too :

Its also in EM, bokashi and worms. So you could inoculate the biochar with that first, when you put it in it should inoculate the pond. Just start smallish and build up if you are using the em and bokashi to ensure the Koi have adequate oxygen in the water.
It's been rather good, apart from the last few days its been mostly raining when I am not outside.
Wow, every time I start thinking about watering here it ends up raining a bit so I don't have to bother ๐
Its hairy too like mullein another expectorant that works amazingly well, I remember it by shape of the leaf and the hairs being like the cilia in lungs.
Got the same task to do but its been pissing down here all day ๐
UVC for pest and mold issues and flowering plant metabolites. Makes sense when you think of natural cycles and the times of year when you would get more UV radiation.
They also mention terpenes (as its a cannabis centric podcast) so if you are growing fruit under glass you might want to add it for that too, even if you do have you pest and disease issues under control. UV light from the sun and biophotons emmited by plants and people don't pass through glass.
UVC seems to be the UV light used in aquariums as I have one kicking around from getting the gerbils a new tank I will have to give it a go.

Why am I living in an AI generated world with strawberry corn carrot gene splicing nightmare, strawberry like tomatoes, kiwi cucumbers and retarded broccoli heads?
We can have competition first to convince someone wins ๐
Just watch out for other things suddenly dying then. Perhaps the strike fried the good bacteria and the pathogen moved in. If you are in the USA just buy some EM terraganix that should prevent it spreading.
Just to give context I trying to get people to claim their podcast on fountain and even that seems to be a struggle. All that involves is downloading fountain and typing in your email... I even say I will boost the show and thus far I have had no takers... I think people think its a scam or something .
In reality it seems almost impossible to move any normal to use nostr. They ether get it or they don't hence the autism 'joke'.
I am pretty sure we had he an autism support npub here at one point ๐
It might be phytophthora. It kills the tree from the root and makes it stink in a fermented kind of fashion like that. If its still alive it is plant sap exuding from the root area and fermenting on it own. If its alive and its a tree you can coppice you might see new growth.
The middle being rotten is kind of irrelevant as its not really alive. The living part of the tree is the outside or cambium layer as the tree was likely cut by the lightning and had hole in it it could rot out on the inside and still be alive but usually will fail in a strong wind as it is structurally like a straw rather than a solid stick. Cambium layers graft together when placed next to one another so t hat why the ratchet straps likely helped.
If you don't mind a stump leave it alone. If it doesn't regrow, stinks and something else randomly dies its likely phytophthora. There are friendly bacteria I have used to repurpose this disease into a beneficial. If you let me know what country you are in I can probably point you in the right direction.
I happy to forget all the other sources of quercetin I know about. Sending wine can help though ๐
If you have every observed a dandelion for a day you will notice the flowers open and close in response to light. We have been having some wonderful sunny days of late and today it happens that it is cloudy thus the petals have not opened so much. When the clouds are in the sky the red light of infrared and visible is blocked more than some of the UV side of the spectrum.
So in the video when we have a fresh dandelion under the microscope after being in the direct sun and the epiflourescent light is used on the petal it moves. The epiflourescent light on the scope is on the blue light end of the spectrum and therefore it seems the flower is moving in response to the blue light because it is the action taken at the end of the day aka closing up for the night. As the sun rises we have more red light because the light has to travel through more atmosphere than and at the end of the day where have more blue.
In the video you can see only the petals really move. Once they move they donโt return so much but when the infrared red-light led panel is shone on it it moves back more.
I have also seen trichomes and leaves pump sap, puffballs move their spores with the epi, signalling a similar end of the day type of action. The leaves would likely be pumping metabolites to the roots, puffballs hairs would be possibly preparing spores for dispersal to avoid direct midday sun.
Turns out this process is called Nyctinasty.
Phytochromes proteins seem to be responsible for the red light movement
Phytochrome
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phytochrome
and Phototrophins are proteins for the blue light movement.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phototropin
there is also a protein for UV B
UVR8
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UVR8
also for blue light:
Cryptochrome

I am sure there must be more too and it would surprise me if lots of this stuff applies to people in some way too.
