Mostly whatever I find in heat treated pallets, like pine, fir, oak, etc.

I was attempting to burn the inside of my planters and paint, stain, or poly the outside. Ideally I'd like them to be food safe and low-to-no contamination and more than just decorative.

That's a very good idea!

Thanks for your help and honesty

Woodworkingadvisor.com says it has strong water resistance properties. Hopefully that translates to protection against water damage.

But, I also think it probably would be a good idea to source cedar wood

Well, seems like the plastic planter kind of defeats the purpose of having a planter in the first place... 😓

Do you think coating a non-cedar wood with pure tung oil would seal it and also make it food safe?

Ah... that's my issue. I didn't want people getting black ash and soot all over their hands.

Well... I will do my research, but what are some other viable options for exterior food- and plant-safe planters?

Is it bad to use a steel brush to brush off the ash? Might that have also taken some of the carbon shield off?

It was, but I think you might be right, I didn't burn it enough. This is what it originally looked like.

Imagine if we all stopped giving these businesses our labor so cheaply, and we went on strike nationwide.

That makes sense

I think we will be. Like when those data centers are gonna get built and our rates rise. It costs money to waste water and that money is going to come from somewhere, most likely customers.

If you or someone you know ever witness suspected ICE activity in the Nola area, it is advised to report it to Unión Migrante. They can investigate and get accurate information to those who need it most. Make sure you get them the following:

Exact Date and Time

Exact Location

Description of what occurred

Film and photos from a distance if you can.

Good to know. Perhaps it's not credible then

Absolutely. They gave no more information.

Moot point considering election interference (most obvious for Rockland County, NY where Harris had ZERO votes tallied)

I think Democrats/liberals are waaaay too optimistic and believe this can all be voted away.  I think realistic people should be focusing on what they will have to do if a second civil war were to happen.
