This company is not a good company for organic gardeners to patronize because they are not eco friendly. The USEPA banned the sale of wood, and wood products, that contain CCA several years ago. Since that "mulch" is considered a non hazardous product no MSDS is needed and the one copied here is a very general one that covers a wide range of other products manfactured by this not at all eco friendly company.

Pepto Bismol too funny. Horton I don't understand your S.W.M.B.O. abbreviation--assume it's your wife. It's like texting which I don't do although my daughter texts a mile a minute. The stuff I mentioned came from a health food store and no I didn't buy it as was way too pricey. I checked the health food store out as know they carry "weird" stuff. Anything from a health food store is way over priced which is why I don't go there. If you find a CD source for the real deal let me know--. I did order some from fishsempai. Andrew waived the shipping costs as I order ProGold from him all the time. I also got my wakins from him 4 or 5 years ago. He no longer carries them as the wakins he had from whatever breeder he orders from had those lumpy growths. Some of mine had those as well. He said he had lanced some and removed some but they just come back. Are a genetic defect on wakins. Won't kill the fish and aren't contagious just ugly. He sells koiclay at $29.95 for a 5 lb box. I know David will freak at that but in CD you only have some options for some stuff. Gotta take my daughter to work.

'U' are preaching to the choir here...

A forest will choke out a thicket, I often recomend that fruit and nut trees be planted on purpose, so that we lock up carbon and produce food for ourselves, and chocke out the brush plants that are unpleasent to walk through. When you go on a hike along a tail it seems that you are always either bordered by clearing/lawn or by a thicket, but once you break through that thicket you can useually travle quite quickly and easily and have plenty of space to move about. The main reasonfor removing trees and brush historicly wasn't to make things more pleasent, it was to open up land for agricultural use. with a field we can grow staple cerial grains, or legumes, or use it as pasture for animals, while some trees may provide seasonal food for some critters it takes alot of work to survive off of them year round (and trust me when I say thing, willow does not taste that good) . Our modenr day lawns were not contrived from thin air, you need to look at were they came from to understand how they fit in. Lawns are popular mainly in the south (sure, lots of people like them, but in the south they are sick for them) the south had a large portion of its caucasian inhabitants come from scotland (the southern drawl is very closely related to the scots accent) in schotland they have huge green field that are kept down to a few inches all summer long, this is because there is alot of rain and people raise sheep. Now, in the south there isn't as much water in the summer, and there aren't as many sheep, but people still liked the look of home so a lawn with mowers and irrigation is what they came up with.
