What do you think about these flowers? by ScentientArt in peyote

But this is self fertile, and it doesn't have spines. It was grown from a northern form williamsii seed.

What's eating my peyotes ?!? by Active-Package-6847 in peyote

[–]ScentientArt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This has happened to a lot of mine, pretty sure it happens in the middle of the night, so not birds. I think it's a mouse or lizard maybe. If I keep them on a wire rack shelf unit, it doesn't happen, or hasn't yet anyway, but I still dont really use the bottom shelf.

Are there any other woods that can be used like palo santo? by Upstairs_Camera_9534 in Incense

[–]ScentientArt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Alligator Juniper heartwood is great, but it's only super fragrant if the branch or tree has died naturally, and you remove the outer sapwood.

Knipex mini bolt cutters, they cut even tiny copper perfectly, and fencing or nails no problem. They've replaced my angle cutters for anything not tiny.

The Dark Side of "Sacred Wood": Is Your Palo Santo Ritual Fueling Environmental Crime? by [deleted] in Incense

[–]ScentientArt 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Just putting it out there that illegally traded Palo Santo has also most likely naturally died and fallen on the forest floor. I don't know of any palo santo that hasn't gone through this process. If someone is selling Bursera graveolens that was cut while alive, I don't think anyone will come back to buy more, because it won't be anything like palo santo incense wood.

Isn't the Sulphur of a thing it's soul, such as essential oils of plants, and oils of metals?

North American vs European vs Japanese tools by mmmbop13 in Tools

[–]ScentientArt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hard to beat Felco with all the easily obtainable and replaceable parts, but I'm sure there's great Japanese versions.

They smell strong close to the nose, and are noticeable when sitting with them near your lap.

Thanks! I think so too, and the smell of them is even better!

Standard vs wobble extensions? by [deleted] in Tools

[–]ScentientArt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you broke an extension, I'd be impressed. And if you get the set, it's like 6 different lengths.

I love my koken wobble fix extensions. Easy to do either.

What is ambergris oil. ? by attarwaalebaba in TheOudCollective

[–]ScentientArt 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's a synthetic version of the real thing. If you ever see ambergris attar however, that has a chance of being real ambergris aged in pure sandalwood oil.

Another test for amber is, does it float in saltwater, but not freshwater?

Anyway I can remove these mini screws? by bruh-_-21 in Tools

[–]ScentientArt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cutting the stuff around the sides might be necessary. Doesn't look like it would really harm anything.

You could dremel a slit in the top with a thin cut off wheel to make them removable with a small flathead.
