    Homemade clay pipes.

    Just natural clay from the hobby store instead of the really, really natural clay from the river. Has to be natural clay though, not one of the plastic or oil based clays. Just regular natural clay like potters use, nothing special, can sometimes get it cheap at colleges. The storebought is a...

    Homemade clay pipes.

    Dug the clay from the river (mixed with other clay for the top two), sculpted by hand, used a straw to make the hole, burnished with the back of a spoon, and fired in my BBQ.

    ppm tutorial

    In an aero cuttings rig, to root you can use plain water, or maybe add a touch of rooting hormone (cloning solutions for example). After they have rooted, either plant in soil (or soil-like media like coir), and use the GO, or switch to a synthetic (like General Hydroponics) if they will be...

    Leonardo's Organic Mini Run

    (pic 1) The compost is far enough along to use here. I filtered it, mixed 1-2 parts compost, 1 part coir, and 1 part perlite for the base mix. (pic 2) Pinched once. (pic 3) Kitty helping trim the lower leaves. (no I don't "let" him, just can't stop him). (pic 4) Catnip bud in bloom (yes...

    Warning about "Biosolids" aka Human Shit.

    Copied from the US Geological Survey website Biosolids, the treated sludge generated by the treatment of sewage at wastewater treatment plants, is something that most people don't think about as they flush everyday chemicals and drugs down the drain. However, U.S. Geological Survey (USGS)...

    Warning about "Biosolids" aka Human Shit.

    There is a concern about some of the substances that may be taken up by the roots and wind up in the finished bud. The following is from NatualNews, not something I wrote. "(NaturalNews) The Food Rights Network (FRN), a nonprofit research group, recently issued a press release explaining the...

    Warning about "Biosolids" aka Human Shit.

    I'll add it if someone can show proof. I found some indication they used to use, but haven't found anything to say they still do.

    Warning about "Biosolids" aka Human Shit.

    I agree, absolutely. I didn't like it when some of the commune types started playing with humanure, but didn't make a point of slamming them for it either. But this is some scary shit, esp since they are putting it on food crops in some cases.

    Warning about "Biosolids" aka Human Shit.

    Yeah, seriously, even if the stuff was safe, would you want stranger poo near your buds? I don't even want my own poo near it, and I know where I've been. Pretty sure when they say "don't poo where you eat" they don't mean it's okay for other folks to either. Kidding aside, I am not just a...

    Are there any that aren't made by a biosolid company?

    Warning about "Biosolids" aka Human Shit.

    No it isn't just raw sewage it is treated raw sewage, and "pink slime" isn't just salvaged meat refuse it is treated salvaged meat refuse. In both cases they are however close enough to have a concern over. Especially when they try to market it as "compost" or "hamburger", and are both banned...

    True, but not everyone uses the "specialty" soils to grow weed in. Nothing wrong with either seabird guano or kelp extract.

    I'm not saying folks don't do it, I'm just saying I don't want it in my garden.

    Warning about "Biosolids" aka Human Shit.

    It's a shame they get away with misleadingly labeling it. Use it in reclaimed mining sites and places already screwed up, but keep it away from my buds and my veggies.
