I'm no mycologist, but you should take a photo of it, then take a spore print. That would definitely help in identification for those on the board who know their stuff.

After that, if I were you I'd just clean and sterilize the tank and take a few extra steps in the process to ensure it's squeaky clean.

>clean and sterlize the tank
I'll do my best but they say not to use cleaning agents when cleaning tanks for amphibians. Some reptiles are fine but amphibians, especially frogs, drink water through their skin so they're more susceptible to chemicals and chemical residue, especially chlorine in the water. I have to use special drops in his pitcher of water to eliminate chlorine and other shit, and when I clean the tank I have to use a hose then let it completely dry.
I have no idea where I can take a spore print of it, I'm not a mycologist either. I just know basic shit I read in grade school. I'll definitely take some pics tomorrow, I'll upload if I can. I'll make another thread if I have to really. It's almost midnight though, that's half of my "because reasons"

>>771933
Oh and I forgot, there's this stuff called Eco Earth that's made of dried coconut shavings and shit that I use for the dirt layer in the bottom of the tank, so it's not legitimate dirt. There is one dead cricket and some frog excrement in there so I guess it could thrive if he splashes water out of his bowl everywhere. I just never thought actual spores would get in there, it's a terrarium.
Also, most of the decorations I keep in there have been in there for the entire time I've had him (washing regularly of course). The most recent addition was a holographic backdrop I attached to the outside of the tank and I bought it from a pet store.

it got archived a few days ago...

got my knockoff spyderco, not bad overall, but they made all the clip holes and only bothered to tap 1/4 positions

It got to a point that knife generals are meme tier now. We can have another one rolling but they're pretty much useless. It's all the same stuff posted ad nauseam.

>>764893
but where else will I get strangers to recommend tactical, unrealistically-sized, fixed blades that I plan to intentionally abuse in ways they were not intended, while playing out in the backyard, so I can video tape it and upload it to youtube!?

What do you like to do /out/? What kind of weather do you really hate being /out/ in?

>>748031
I agree with this
Would love to do the PCT

>>774837

It's pretty, I'll give it that.

What kind of steel?

>>774837
Very nice anon. Do you have a sheath for it?

Stainless steal i guess

Hey OP. Why did you make this thread while also commenting in the other thread about this exact same subject? Are you literally retarded?

>>774737
I commented in the other after making this one.

I'd take one of those sexy ribbons of highway you see going up mountains that double back on each other. I love good bbq

>>774616
25ºc? Fuck that is too hot. Like sandnigger hot.

Ah, the sweet snaking switchbacks slithering up the mountain like your uncle's hand up your mother's leg.

It smells like celery and has a hollow trunk

After a quick search,it looks like it may be Ferula communis,dont really know.

>>774614
>Ferula communis

Nope.

Get the 65L. the 50 will limit you to weekend trips.

Cant give you advice on those bags

>>774257
I think the the real difference is the 65 has a front compartment. Look at pics and youll see the zipper. If you want to go light don't get the 65 or you'll find a way to fill it.

>>774257
Cat's Meow is super comfy. I tried on an Atmos, but it was BIG. I don't do really long trips, just a night or two. I ended up going with the Kestrel 38. If you don't do super long trips, the Atmos will be too big. The Kestrel is comfy, and much heavier duty material than the Talon or Atmos line.

Anon you need to step up your game.

Anyway, hitchhinkingb to the Med will not be difficult you just need to find the right people but catching a ride with a cargo ship will not be easy. They have to follow rules and you are another person for them to look for. Also they'll not feed you for free.

You have no idea how fucking horrible the Scandinavian way of life is if you don't fit 100% in. Yes, everything is good and well, but ONLY if you're willing to get a job fast so you can start paying back to society.

And I was of course planning on working on board the ship to pay my fare.

>>773916
Where do you think you would fit in and how?

>>773874
How about bringing a waterfilter?

>>773874
You're better off bringing about 4L of mountain dew

Pack around $200 in 1's into the sock you wear in your boots, that should see you through, there are plenty of places to stop and spend on the trails

>>773876
How about not falling for summer bait threads?

>>773535

Why doesn't it work if you put the little metal bits on the corners into the poles?

>>773536
yea this. the poles should be hollow right? there should be a way to platform the poles to the tent corners

>>773535
Take the metal pins on those rings at eah corner and put them into the bottom of the poles.

because building something yourself is really fun. Dreamt of being a castaway ever since I was a kid

MEC, it's the sister company of REI in the states.

Amazon, Walmart, Dick's, Home Depot, Tractor Supply. I generally avoid the REIs and EMS's and I don't have a Cabella's or Bass Pro near me

Been looking for a decent budget tent as I almost froze to death last time. Have no idea what I'm doing tbqh, and I'd appreciate some advice.

I'm WWOOFing right now in Norway and I've been to 7 different WWOOF hosts across Europe. AMA.

>>773032
How much did you save up before going?

How long do hosts usually let you stay?

Any problems with doing it?

>>773041
>How much did you save up before going?

I should specify further that I'm from England and that I've been WWOOFing for more-or-less a year at different places. I only saved up about £1000 (about $1500) because if you're primarily doing WWOOFing, then there isn't much expenditure apart from transportation. As the WWOOF contract states, the host will be looking after all the food and accommodation which is one of the more expensive parts of travelling. The further your host from you, the more you'll have to save up.

A flight to most European destinations from London is in the range of £20-£200. Further afield and you're looking at prices that could exceed £1000. Most WWOOF farms are rural so you'll probably need to get a bus or a train which could cost anywhere from £5-£100.

TL;DR: It depends on where you go, but you shouldn't need a lot apart from transportation.

>How long do hosts usually let you stay?

It depends a lot on the host. Some of them will want WWOOFers to stay for two weeks at most, while others will want them to stay for over six months and sometimes stays for a year are not too uncommon. WWOOF hosts usually state how long they want WWOOFers for on their profile.

There's an average, though, and it's about two weeks to a month. I'd say 80% of WWOOFers I've met have stayed for that duration.

TL;DR: It depends on the host, but most WWOOFers stay for two weeks to a month.

>Any problems with doing it?

Absolutely.

Sometimes the hosts get really tired because of some external event and that causes tension. Sometimes the host you get to is actually a WWOOFer slave-labour camp. Sometimes it's actually other WWOOFers that are the problem, mostly the 'tourist-for-free' types that demand days off all the time and are generally uninterested in the daily activities at the host.

taking my kid camping for the first time next weekend. if it goes well i have another one lined up in june. i have a couple backpacking trips in the sierra in july, one on the west side, one on the east side (pic semi-related: both will be slightly out of the right side of the frame). i have half a dozen climbs i want to get on, but i'm skeptical i'll get more than 2 with how busy my partners and i are this summer.

Next weekend the waifu and I are going hiking for 4 days in the White Mountains. Should be good. Might climb Mt Katahdin in September if the campsites aren't already booked up.
We hiked the Bigelow section of the Appalachian Trail last week; pic related.
