I love the smell of burning 2 stroke in the morning. When it was just me driving around in a silver car fixing boats I used to smell it every morning. Now that we've got some clout in the area, it's mostly new 4 strokes and jet boats. My boat is one of the few carbed smokers I get to play with these days. Kinda sad, I love Johnson/Evinrudes...
I know what it's like Age 8 wringer washer halfway to the elbow. Woodworking class Age 12 jointer planner 2 fingers
Coincidentally I was at High School with an A. Brewster. My brothers are still mates with him. He put a bit of wood on the wrong side of a sanding lathe thing in class. Whipped his hand up and he lost half a thumb. I saw the classroom after. Blood on the walls, floor and ceiling. Gross
Even better are the smells and sound of that 4 cylinder starting up when the winds are blowing and the waves kicking up and it is now time to get off the water. The worst sound is the starter motor just continuing to spin
while the boat continues to drift into the shipping channel.
A properly tuned two stroke outboard definitely has a smell that is easy to appreciate when the engine first starts up. And the exhaust bubbling through the water is a sound that is hard to replace when idling into a fishing spot.

I've been experimenting with some "living super soil" for the next run, and that shit is growing mycelium like crazy! I mixed a tiny bit of the living dirt with my seedling dirt and put some clones in it - now that stuff is crawling with life too. I'm not sure if "living super soil" will equate to phenomenal ganga... but time will tell!
<cut more stuff.>
Don't be so quick to make the referral yet, I was also advised privately that I may be harboring white mold and not mycelium. Now I'm not sure myself.Love it, some great photos. Well done on the new life growing on the soil.
The next time someone panics because they see some white or gray fuzzy stuff growing on their soil I will try to refer them to your photos so they can see that their panic session is not needed.
. With no way to test it, I can't be positive which one I have.
But you still did not panic?
.Its freaked me at the seedling stage when we use potting soil (coco the rest of the time) I just throw H2o2 amended water at it and rub it away. They’re only like 2” square cubes at that stage though. Different with a bigger pot.But you still did not panic?
When I first started out with this intense indoor gardening adventure I spent hours talking to other indoor growers where ever I found them. Maybe they were the staff at a grow shop or a paying or non-paying customer. Then I would look up what they mentioned when I got home and cross referenced that with other sources.
When I see similar growth on a bucket of soil I leave it be. When it is time to do some transplanting I grab the soil I need and if some of the white fuzz comes along for the ride it is what it is.
No panic my friend. I believe I saw Doc Bud once revealing a large batch of cooked soil completely covered in white fuzz and he was remarking about it being a sign of fertile and biologically active soil, but my memory gets fuzzy too. It's all basically a moot point though - My SIP dirt gets dry as the Sahara for the top 2 inches, so it won't support any mold or mycelium once in use. Whatever the fuzz is, it'll be dead under the lights.But you still did not panic?

Is there anything that Peroxide isn't good for??? Love that junk.
If the 49ers have Debo Samuels, it'll be a slug fest and a shootout. Without Debo though, Baltimore won't have to respect the jet sweep, they'll crowd the box and massacre that rookie Purdy. I do love the "Mr Irrelevant goes to the Superbowl" story that's unfolding for Purdy though, it's petty damn cool.Even with all the pomp, I doubt that this year's Superbowl will be more anticipated than the KC v. Bmore game. What a match-up!
You're not giving Detroit any kind of chance against the Niners?
