Yup, amazing the lengths nature will do to overcome. Many years ago, a cactus pad seedling somehow got stuck in the crevice of an angle iron frame on one of our deer blinds. Absolutely no soil whatsover - but it still grew! When that blind was finally torn down, the plant had at least 3 - 4 small pads, thats resilient and a will to live!
Can't fight nature, she holds all the cards... she lets us humans bumble along for a while.. long enough to think we own the place... then wipes a few of us off the map...
An expedient oxygen absorber for a 5 gallon storage container can be made by placing a golf ball size piece of steel wool and a tablespoon of salt inside a paper napkin and placing it in the container. The salt will absorb the residual moisture and the steel wool will naturally absorb the oxygen.
Preppin' Tips - Recipes
Make Your Own Electrolyte Beverage (Gatorade, Pedialyte, etc.)
To one quart of water add 1/2 teaspoon baking soda, 1 teaspoon of salt, and 8 teaspoons of granulated sugar. Thoroughly mix all ingredients together.
This will replace electrolytes lost by the body due to dehydration caused by diarrhea, vomiting, excessive sweating, etc. A package of Kool-Aid, Crystal Light, etc. may be added to enhance the flavor and color.

Nature will give you reminders about who is really in charge. You don't have to look very hard to see the evidence.
Thanks anon.

Agreed.
If you try to fight nature, you are going to lose that battle and in a serious way. It's a better strategy to work with Nature instead of against it.
Thanks Karl.
