Using salt bandages instead of salt paste for straw log mold control
    #14750317 - 07/11/11 09:14 AM (13 years, 6 months ago)

I have recently discovered that making a salt 'bandage' is a better solution than salt paste for curbing mold growth on 2nd-3rd flush straw logs.  The main problem with salt paste is that some salt always drips down the log if applying on the side or salt gets dropped by accident on logs on shelves underneath.  So my solution is to make the paste but add a little more water till soupy than take a piece of 1 ply paper towel the size of the area you want to cover and work it into the salt paste until completely saturated.  Then carefully press the paper towel squarely on the log and smooth it out so that it sticks.  If it doesn't stick mist the area lightly with water.  This method has been working much better.

Evolution is Lamarckism in disguise.  Adaptation never creates a new species or trait, but rather the new species/trait always existed within the parent DNA until circumstances allowed it to be activated.  For instance, every wolf has the DNA for poodles, but that DNA would never be revealed without man selectively breeding for it.
