propogation

Now we wait... I'm hoping these will establish different zones of bacteria, algae, and fungae.

I'm looking for a modern take on our national anthem, Ilkley Moor bar-t'at: "Then slugs shall come and ate up microbes..." at which point a hedgehog or similar edible species could be introduced into the food chain, eventually allowing me in a round-about way to eat my own paintings, which of course is what every painter really wants more than anything.

No I'm not, that's a lie. Actually all I want is to have some nice gentle take-it-or-leave-it interactions with whoever is up for it.
