    New “Cellar” Setup

    Looking good! Though I will say that unless you live in an arid climate, there’s really no need for humidification if those are jars are screwed down tight. Opaque bin and cover to keep the light out is a good idea

    What's your favorite painting?

    Very sad news indeed. Buck Rogers was a staple of my childhood Somewhere Dr. Theopolis is quietly weeping, if that’s even possible.
