I got all my sawdust bags done. & of them. Now they need to cool enough. Tomorrow morning.
Also I got a good photo of twhat was on my lips. Gues what idiot has thistle needles in their inner lip. How the fuck am I supposed to get these out. For fucks sake. God thing I have good insurance because I may have to go to the dermatologist. It's hard to get white glue to dry on your inner lip to pull them out. I may be able to stuff my mouth with paper towels to keep it dry enough. Too tired now. But seriously. For fucks sake! I will never forget what young thistle looks like.

Yes MT it happens. I even dumped diatomaceous earth in my bag but it didn't eradicate those little fuckers. My bags almost empty so I just put it in a tub and sealed the lid. I know, I know horrible waste of an empty tub lol.
Psilo, that's exactly what I said so I'm still using them

Sorry but that is fucking funny, but I am sorry you have to deal with the pain and annoyance. I just can't imagine someone putting thistle in their mouth.

TBC, do they get irritated and swell when you mess w them?
I bet if they do that you could use a toothpick or safety pin or something to rub on them and get them to raise up a bit and then extract them w tweezers. I once overheard a guy talking about doing this to remove metal slivers from his eyeball. I think he was an operating engineer but after hearing his story I thought he must be some type of superhuman or something. He said he has had metal slivers stuck in his eye so many times that he quit going to the eye doc over it. He said it is easy to do once you understand what's going on. Hearing his story made me anxious. Hope your lip and back gat better soon.
EDIT: or, if you are a tobacco user you could try putting a chew in. I have heard that tobacco can be used as a drawing salve. I'm not sure if it would work that way in your mouth though.

Dry your lip good and use good sticky tape to pull them out.

I confess that cultivation is seeping into the rest of my life. My job and many other tasks are becoming "teks" that I must follow to the T.

I know what you mean, I was showing gf a new Bread Tek th other day. I found out that the bread (prevailed) becomes perfectly baked if it goes into the oven as soon as the oven is turned on instead of first warming it up to 220C. And in doing this Tek you get the exact same quality in exactly 13:00 min. Many things become a Tek during the day

My gf of going on 4 years said a week ago "Do you ever think maybe you're a little too into this? Like how many times today did you check your tub? I think you have a problem."
I was like "...Listen bitch, a problem is smoking fucking meth and robbing people, I feel bad you don't have a hobby as cool as this, this is fuckin fascinating. I grew these fuckers from spores on agar LOOK."
She just rolls her eyes and doesn't get it but she's also never tripped yet. I think that will make her understand why I am so into it. I feel like a wizard who found magic when I grow shrooms. She sees some half naked dude leaning over a tub at 2AM giggling.

Most of my friends don't get it either. It's like I went into the fucking woods. Spent 4 hours finding this one mushroom. Then I took it home. Split it open and put it on agar and it grew. And now it's in your mouth. Now chew and swallow bitch.
Hahaha. Still got the thistles. I'm ging over my friends house and we are going to try and remove them. Feels like a bad case of chapped lips. Uggh. Plus y back on top of this shit. Bollocks.
