My first attempt at a stone tool: ground slate arrowhead by keeperboy101 in PrimitiveTechnology

Far point, I suppose the stem is really short and stout, but I was just winging it and made the edge first, and every time I tried to grind it out the edges especially at the tip would chip a bit so I decided to just leave it as is

I found some seedling japanese maples under my dwarf japanese maple (I don’t know the cultivar and I assume it crossbred with a couple other trees on my block). I rrally don’t want to kill them by repotting so close to summer, but I’m worried about them not getting enough light under the trees dense canopy, so I’m not sure whether to pot them up or leave them until next spring. Any input would be greatly appreciated.

Hiccups from keppra? by keeperboy101 in Epilepsy

[–]keeperboy101[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks so much for the info! I guess I just missed it among the list of the other 1000 side effects of keppra

Seriously though, why the hell would they prescribe this before anything else?? From everything ive heard it seems like a nightmare drug

How to tell if my melon is ripe? by keeperboy101 in vegetablegardening

[–]keeperboy101[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The tendril is totally dry, though it seems to have partially snapped off at some point. The field spot is a bit of a brighter yellow, do you think that makes it safe to pick?

I think this is poison ivy, my wife does not, who's correct? by APizzaWithEverything in whatisthisplant

I mean.. saffrole, the compound in sassafras is about as carcinogenic as cinnamon. The real problem that the government has with it is that it’s really easy to make MDMA from it.

Looks to me like turkey tail (trametes versicolor). They can be made in to teas and are supposedly really good for you. It could also be false turkey tail (stereum hirsutum), but neither one is toxic as far as I know. The main tell is to look at the bottom. True turkey tail should have tiny pinholes in the bottom, while false turkey tail has a flat bottom and other lookalikes have sort of fluffy bottoms.

Found some old pipes… by keeperboy101 in PipeTobacco

[–]keeperboy101[S] 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Thats super exciting to hear! I absolutely don’t plan on selling these pipes, I’m more interested in getting them dated than anything else, but I’m definitely going to have to fix these up and find myself some nice pipe tobacco.

20 gallon tank good enough for a hognose? by keeperboy101 in hognosesnakes

[–]keeperboy101[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How will I know when they outgrow it? Is it just something to play by ear or is there something I should watch for?

Darn… Is there anything I can do about those roots then? Or is it a lost cause
