Bonsai

[serloco]

So last year was a disaster.. I made the mistake of ordering a truck load of soil that was full of weed seeds. Sure my trees came up covered with weeds every week. So this year I am planting about 30 000 more trees but I am working with a sterile medium. I do really well this way and have a high germination rate. It will be more work but I love it. In two weeks I get my new seed order and so I get to treat the seeds over the winter and do my stratification. Most people dont realize that tree seeds need treatment to break their dormancy.

Also, in two months i get my website domain running.. It will be called "bonsaigardens.ca". I already got my web designer program. I also called a custom tag designer to make my tags that say "Bonsai Babies". I am going to conquer the bonsai industry.

20 years ago i called in at a freind of a freinds up in the hillsand he had a bonsai gardenminitaure beech trees, oak trees, ash trees, apple trees, white birch even..each one up to 24 inches tall but 20 years old.
i was very impressedbut have always found the problem of daily watering of a tiny rootbound section of soil too much to deal with.fearing that just a weeks neglect in hot summer months could destroy years of work.

[serloco]

Sure, if it's in the full sun on a hot summer day you may need to water it every day. This is the joy of caring for your tree and the rewards that this care brings to the grower.

So part of the overall display of the tree is the pot they rest in. A good bonsai tree must have a good pot. People pay anywhere from 15$-200$ for a pots. Many artists craft individual pots made for the tree, with designs and patterns on them. I found a few wholesalers already but I found that it would be much cheaper for me, and much more money earned, if I get a kiln and make them myself. I found out today that the government will give me 500$ to get me started. So that means free kiln, free clay, and free paints.

[serloco]

Tomorrow I register my website domain name. I will begin work on my website. I only have about 50 salable trees but I will be able to start up the Bonsai Seed section and whenever I get my kiln I can sell the pots. My domain comes with a free website builder program and so I will get moving. I will post the link once I get it up and ready.

Its great that you can get a start-up grant.
How do you think having your own kiln produced pots will compare to a pottery school evening class where the kilns are shared through the week?

How do you get around concepts such as DHL if you need to freight to someone without losing its proximity to the whole?

maybe its in the glaze.

[serloco]

Thanks. Well it seems very easy to get started. I learn better on my own rather then taking a class. I will be able to master the art very quickly. I will excel.

I dont know what DHL is and I dont understand your question.

[rosygyro]

AS you have written so many tales of your territorial issues, i was asking how you felt about sharing a kiln. Your (9) pot will be in a kiln with schoolgirls "stick figures" and menopausal witches "odes to the ceramic womb" , drag queens "the clay penis rejected" or hos "the displaced terracotta john", the sick, the mad and the elderly. as well as potentially Men of power."cadeceus"

It was agenuine question of how you work as an artist and wether you are resolved about sharing a 1200c oven with a mix of other creative people.

Who would you invite to share your personal kiln.. "the same mix".

i just thought i might get you to talk about art thats all. piece peace

[serloco]

The truth is, you do not see me, and thus can not accurately know who I am.

I already have some friends who want to play clay pottery with me. We also have lots of children around here and so I will share with them.

[rosygyro]

are you flirting?
Seriously dude. i was just trying to get some talk of the craft in.
i am not trying to " see " you.

[rosygyro]

Look, whatever work you make, i hope it suits your recapitulation, in that of your life,, your honour, your integrity, your love, your humour, your playfull joyfull clown side, your highly trained shinobi warrior body, your cool with surfers and rollerchicks side, your dont need to workout side, your secret elusive cannot see me side... all of the above.

I really really intend for the side of you which is aggressive, privated, secretly power obsessed, sobrietic failure, bitter, petty tyrannical to catastrophicly fail.
As i also wish it to fail in me.

[serloco]

You see a moment is just a moment in my eyes. It passes by and is gone. I did have a power obsessed and aggressive side. But I left it behind already. I did state that to you already and made a few posts about it. You seem to focus on the history, the past, meanwhile I left a cloud of dust there and already moved on. It is easy for myself to change who I am and how i react.

[rosygyro]

PERHAPS I AM QUESTIONING your work in MEST of the sorcerers world to reign in your earlier aggressive actions.
The Folly of Youth is a well understood concept.
I myself was once indulging in amphetamine induced anal sex with a girlfriend of mine.
after a few minutes of it she said " stop" its hurting.
I often went on for hours and as you can imagine with anal sex thats not always a pleasant thing.
anyway to cut a long story short, my girlfried was used to me lasting a long time and i thought "Hmmmm" i could ejaculate in the next 30 seconds.
and so even though she said stop i continued to @*$$ her ass until i ejaculated in it.

we had by that point had sex at least a 1000 times..
and we did it hundreds more in the months that followed.

however THAT moment of time where she said stop and i thought fuckit was an energetic boundary between myself and her totality.
it bought me right up to the edge of the sexual consent of the NAGUAL WOMAN.

to this day , the sexual act in a little orange tent in 1995 still haunts me..
i still feel tethered to her #$@%..
i even phoned her up drunk in 2007 to ask her if i had ever raped her when we were together. (very guilty conscience)
(the conversation is probably in a digital telecom archive somewhere beneath the pentagon)
to which she responded "no Harley, of course not".
but the energetic to try to change my SEXUAL TOTALITY is still tied to that point.

For me at least.
It does not do to just change my behaviour in the present, i must also tackle my entire being within totality in order to
erase the parts of personal history which border on energetic attatchment or upon seperatism.

[rosygyro]

Of course nowadays the world is a different sexual place and there are 7 year old indian girls twerking on tv.teenage girls being pressure dinto hardcore pornographic acts in school breaktimes etc..

what i did when i was 19 is nothing, but for me at the time it was cataclysmic to my sense of being a good person.
regardless of the millions of examples of worse behavious around the world
i must deal with the very real energetic tear that happened to my energy.
if i try to mask it with either very nice behaviour today, or by bringing up examples of worse modern sexuality
then i am either in the former- avoiding my own totality or worse still as in the latter0 manifesting more serious examples to alleviate my own injury in totality.

could you explain what you mean by- "only by stealing his choice"


youo

[serloco]

I meant that what is most precious you will always have, a choice.

[funnyguy]

That's one of the most beautiful ideas for a business there.
I wish you success and healthy trees it will be great seeing your progress on here.
Keep it up!

[serloco]

Thanks funnyguy, I will leave a portal open for your great intent. Perhaps my trees will get a burst of growth from it!

[serloco]

So my mom called me today and said my batch, 1000 wisteria and 1000 laburnums, were all moldy. I expected the worst but thought i could go out there and save some of them by sterilizing them. Worth a try right? Well I got out there and everything was fine and dandy. False alarm. There was the tiniest bit of mold on barely 10 seeds so i picked em out and aired out the batch. Nothing to worry about.

I met this girl, Victoria, and she is going through school as an advertising and marketing deal. She says she will help me get my business up and running. I say why not right? She says it will give her experience and so it is worth it to her.

[serloco]

So I finally got my trees all planted. I only managed about 5000 trees this spring, plus my last two years crop. Next year I weill add another 10 thou. Its so great watching the seedlings pop and shoot up. My firsdt crop will be salable next year at 30$ a piece. I am so excited. Its so rewarding watching nature grow!

[watergaze]

great . May they grow into strength, beauty and grace...

[serloco]

Thanks WG, more great intent to add to my planties!

[serloco]

So today I met with financial advisor and he set me up with some saving programs. The first one gave me 10 000$ and every month I can add to it and the government pays 3 dollars for every 1 I put in. There are also many grants available to me. I am eligible for up to $390 000 is fundings. So they will take care of the applications for me and get me going. So exciting.

[serloco]

I wont get all the money but some of it for sure.
