Well this is it.

Since the traffic is dead and doing a search from a VPN for myself... I find my homepage but says "No posts". I take it I am blacklisted. Don't know if anything I post gets read by admin but just in case. After also reading about "Operation Backfire" this isn't going anywhere so last post here. But just an FYI for you to chew on. Disclaimer...I do not live on the west coast nor the midwest. I have no plans of ever being there nor do I know anybody there. Since you can scan any email or phone record you think you got all the bases covered. But if Aryan Brotherhood members in max-security prisons can communicate with each other undetected, why in the fuck do you think you can watch the web? Do you think algorithms can catch code words? They can't even read text off of a snapshot. Besides that, what if the text is buried in a pix? Just send a benign hi-res photo with a coded message on a plaque hanging on the wall of the pix. I could go on for days but you are picking up what I am throwing down. Back to the west coast. Lets play connect the dots. First dot. West Coast cities buried in filth, human feces everywhere, L.A. city hall infested with rats and fleas. All over the net to see. Super rats first from the UK and now in D.C. (created by crossing geographic variants with each other...Oriental rats with European rats etc.) somehow make it to L.A. Now dot #2. We have black plague in the midwest. Can be confirmed per the web. So gather all your brightest and best and figure out what happens when a cat in Wyoming gets on a plane to L.A. Super Rats + plague + filth and fleas and homeless street trash everywhere. Think the Cali health system can handle that? I guess we will find out. Oh and another thing to think of. Typhus lives under the exact same environmental conditions so is a barometer of what to watch for. So before you come kicking my door down I have nothing to do with this. Just letting you know to not let that big government attitude get to your head. You don't even come close to having a handle on it. I am too old to be playing in the streets now but I am cheering on the Yellow Vests of the world. So until then, C'ya!

A Native turned invasive

Recently they have promoted dwarf trees to match the diminishing lot size of houses being built. With this they have brought in dwarf forms of the native Southern Magnolia, usually from coastal areas. Forms like "Little Gem", "Edith Bogue" etc, are dwarf forms coming from all up and down the eastern seaboard and gulf coastal areas....usually from Maritime forests. With this they brought in an enormous amount of genetic diversity as they cross with their enormous native cousins. Now instead of being an occasional component of regional forests, they are starting to explode. I have seen many dense groves of them, always near a neighborhood or shopping center where dwarfs are planted. They form those large evergreen groves which I think look awesome but also help smother pines. Since they never shed their leaves pine seedlings cannot take hold in the dark shade. But since they are technically native...albeit improved...no eradication efforts warrant any fund approval. Snicker Snicker.

How to "F" up renterland!

If your area is becoming prone to the houses being gobbled up by large commercial renter companies (Here mainly we have American Homes 4 Rent) here is something you can do to put a turd in the punchbowl. Most forests here are secondary growth from originally being farmland left to convert back to woodlands. Pines being the dominant tree and having forest like below that are open and offering little food or cover for wildlife. But as we all know renters don't do yard work. They all have their own cars and cell phones but not a lawnmower or lopping shears to be seen. Here we are getting massive amounts of Elaeagnus and hybrids thereof known as Silver Thorn. They love pine forests and grow long reaching thorny limbs that make impenetrable thickets. This makes walking in the woods impossible, and makes awesome wildlife habitat as Oppossums, Racoons, Coyotes, Snakes etc thrive in these areas. And most renters are not wildlife lovers so they move into the house, live a few months to a year at best and when the Silver Thorn takes over and wildlife with it they move. The property owners soon become so burdened with repairing the inside damage caused by the renters they rarely spend any money to help clear the lot and soon the house is abandoned. At that point we go back to a previous post and make sure the house is exposed to the elements and let it collapse into itself. Problem solved. Does take time but with patience the problem solves itself. Just needs help getting started. If you dont want to or have the money to buy the plants themselves or if nurseries in your area have quit carrying them here is what to do. Locate a grove near you, dig seedlings for free or better yet collect the berries in fall and mix them in your birdfeeder mix. The birds will do the rest by carpet bombing the neighborhood for you!

New Areas to Eco-tage

   From Virginia Beach down through Hilton Head, eastern half of the Carolinas, bottom 1/3 SE Ga, all of Florida and to the Mississippi delta you have this...skank, pure skank. Such poor sandy soil hardly anything grows. And we have people that actually believe this is unique endangered habitat. Barely any plants and about all the life you see is chiggers, ticks, gnats and mosquitos. Can't you see tourists from around the world coming to see this?

  

   Well there are plenty of plants that will thrive in this and make enormous thickets that provide shelter for wildlife and exclude developers and undesirables. They thrive in sand and make their own fertilizer, spread by root sprouts like Bamboo and provide lots of berries for birds to carry around. As you can see they love this sort of habitat.

There are miles and miles of this sort of habitat just begging to be taken over. Oh and one i forgot...our native buffalo berry from out west. Grows the same as these so would do well too. Not naming the previous again as I don't want to arm the nativists.

Evergreening the South

   Update on a new tree being used among others to convert southern pine forest to broadleaf evergreen. Sorry I cannot tell the name as they are tenuously established and don't want to give any info to native plant nazi's to start banning or eradication efforts.

   This year with the Polar Vortex they have proven hardy here in Z7 and seem to be growing even in winter. According to local Chinese studies they have been found to require establishment in pine forests as they use their roots to predate the roots of pines. They do not use the pines parasitically as they attack to kill. They suck sap and nutrients from pine roots but eventually the pine succumbs and is removed as competition for the developing tree which eventually reaches 80-100' high and as wide. 

   One pix is tray of 250+ seedlings and second is

a yearling growing very rapidly in a pine forest. Their reproductive biology is similar to Prunus Caroliniana or Ligustrum Lucidum so expect same rate of expansion as fruits heavily favored by birds.

How to help intercept HUD and Habitat for Humanity

  In the local area both groups have decided that acquiring abandoned houses and renovating was cheaper than building houses from scratch. They never offer the houses for sale to the general public, they are giving to some fine family to help build diversity. Never mind the whole giant family has a cellphone each but nobody can afford a lawnmower or bother cleaning the gutters. Besides why cut grass when the pit bull tied to a tree in the front yard keeps it worn down?
   If these abandoned houses just happen to spring a roof leak, according to research done 3 weeks of rain can total out a house. Not just saying 3 weeks in general mind you. The moisture triggers wet wood which starts wood mold, black mold and collapse of all the sheetrock. Soon the house will cost more to repair than it is worth.
   Now it makes a great wildlife shelter and if homeless decide to occupy it, then they have to deal with the consequences of black mold, rats, snakes etc that now live in the house. It just goes back to nature.

 

How to improve plants/animals for population expansion.

  There is a term called "Heterosis" where you cross organisms with unrelated geographic forms ( Not to be confused with hybridizing where you cross species ), same species but from distant locals to each other or intergrating subspecies. This causes a larger, more vigorous, more fertile and more aggressive form through genetic overdominance. The different alleles mix and the more dominant forms are selected making for a much more robust organism.
   An example here is where I took seed of the False Indigo (Amorpha Fruiticosa), one from Texas-bottom...the other from California-top. The resulting offspring is in the middle.

   Notice it is larger, with more leaflets. The plant grows faster and in time would replace the parent plants. This was with only one cross. I have now acquired seed from N.J., Wisconsin, Ohio and Florida. All these will be established in colonies together where they can all cross pollinate.
   This plant is supposed to be native here but I have never seen it. But the releases of these seedlings have been amazing. To be a native plant it is downright super invasive. Being a nitrogen fixing plant it will improve the soil it occurs in and is a great butterfly plant. So using this technique you can help increase populations of dwindling or endangered species.
   To the "purists" out there that argue that this degrades the genetics of the organism...how can they be more aggressive and take over if they have been degraded? If they are truly hindered in some way nature would naturally weed out any defective offspring.
   More on this later as we discuss natives and exotics that can be used to renaturalize areas damaged by the trash and filth that have no regard for the environment. The number of species this tactic can be used on is only limited by the number of species that have a wide range and multiple subspecies....so mind boggling in other words.
 

Abandoned building as wildlife habitat, not homeless shelters.

   Many building that are abandoned attract homeless wino's and also act as gang hideouts. If the windows are broken or removed this keeps the building from retaining heat for people but the roof and walls provide shelter for animals like Owls, Foxes, Coyotes etc. Also planting creepers on the walls of the building like English and Boston Ivy gives habitat for small birds to nest on the outside of the building....besides being aesthetic.

Two New Projects

Out in California on the beaches they have an invasion of ice plants as below. These plants do well in sand and coastal areas....too well.

Well the coastal areas of the S.E. are now getting their turn. Not exact same species but same environmental requirements, growth patterns and more cold hardy. Have planted several colonies which are starting to spread like wildfire, and deer resistant too.

I think they are gorgeous plants but of course the native plant nazi's will attack out of shear ethics.

Then also in the nearby "Hood" we have many vacant lots from old removed gas stations and grocery stores as below. 

The old pavement is cracking from weather so three plants do real well at covering these unsightly areas and making almost a tropical look. Black Locust, Tree of Heaven (Ailanthus) and Paper Mulberry (Broussonettia). Their roots break up the concrete and sprout through any crack they can find. Few trees can make a forest from an old parking lot. 

This prevents access to the lots to dump old water heaters, couches, etc or just using the lots as a hangout to blast loud hip hop and maybe transact a drug deal or two.

Update

   Well so far with the winter cold I have had great success with a new plant on the east coast. After trying several species of Mesquite (Prosopis) I have finally had luck. According to literature the only Mesquite that can take the humidity and cold of the east was the Honey Mesquite (Prosopis Glandulosa). I don't know where they got that info but it is a complete waste of time here.
   Then another that is not supposed to survive here is doing absolutely fabulous. Prosopis Velutina, the Velvet Mesquite. It is supposed to like low humidity but seed acquired from New Mexico thrives here as well as any Mimosa. So just imagine a Mimosa with thorns and much more drought hardy...and as a bonus it has blue leaves. These pix are of the seedling stage back in May but they are about a foot tall now. Notice the deer track beside it...totally ignored!
   But being deciduous they don't photograph well right now...but no stem damage at all! Also they showed no stress to the humidity during the summer. I am really excited about these. If you live in 7b south they are well worth the try. If you can't acquire these and live below the fall line let me know. I will make sure you get some. Also if in Z8, especially if you live where spanish moss is in the trees and sand for soil Acacia Cavens, A. Constricta and A. Wrightii will do just as well. Tropical people and the chosen ones will hate you for it!

Again, with these I can make sure you get some if where you live fits the requirements. In Z7 an environment like this would be great for the Mesquite.

Tomorrow will talk about plants that should be great for the coastal areas. Will devalue the land for developers, discourage snowbird investors and immigrant homesteaders. So everybody from the Outer Banks to Gulf Shores Alabama, I got plants for you!

Things you can do.

  In the S.E. there are many derelict sites that can be planted with aggressive pioneering nitrogen fixing plants that will rapidly build wild life habitat and help exclude homeless squatters and gangs. Such a site below is common place around here.

We will start discussing the many plants that have already showed to be very promising. So laws cannot be enacted against new plants that may be used in the future for now only North American plants from out west or exotics already established here somewhere will be discussed. Since i have limited.time per post the two we will deal with now are Dalbergia Hupeana and a Albizia fertile hybrid. It is a cross of the established Albizia Julibrizzen, same species from the west of its range (Ankara Turkey) Albizia Kalkora amd Albizia Coreana. No attempt to keep separate as they readily cross when close to each other anyway and the hybridas are much larger and sucker very aggressively. More so than Robinia. Here is one of this years seedlings growing in bare mineral soil.

The second is the Dalbergia also growing in bare mineral soil and an established colony in S. Ga.

The S. Ga colony is growing in sand so poor hardly any weeds will grow in it

 But they do great since they fix their own nitrogen. You can only see two trees as the colony is quite scattered.

Introduction

  For several years now have been experimenting with new species and improvement of native species to help reclaim denuded or degraded lands. Though I have never traveled outside the country I have made many contacts outside my homeland and by swapping ideas and living things have helped influence eco systems abroad.
   I have found two types of societies, rural types that love the country and nature and with those I see pretty much eye to eye.
 But the urban city dwellers that are ignorant of nature, fear animals and couldn't care less about what happens in the wild...these types are the ones I hope I can make their life a living hell. If your idea of a nice place to go on vacation is New York or Chicago...well you and I are not going to get along.
   I have been working with others like myself in the 4 corners of the US, Europe, South Africa and China. No need to really do anything in Australia. Would like to make some contacts in the deforested areas of the Amazon though.
   Some of the things you have read in the news have been previous projects. Nile Monitors, Pythons in Florida, Snakeheads in various spots of the Eastern US, etc. All these were NOT accidental pet escapes per the news although an occasional one may have been. It is funny we notice that it takes about 10 years for things to be found once released. There are so many they haven't found yet.
   Well as the blogs continue many will be discussed in detail and projects progress updated. Also how natives can be improved will be explained. This has been a really good surprise as how this has worked has been shocking. BeforeiI close these pix are of Black Locust, but not just any, they are crosses of about 7 different geographic variants. Not hybrids as they are still Robinia Pseudoacacia but from areas all over their range. The effect of "Heterosis" makes them especially aggressive and fast growing. Forming thick, thorny thickets that are impenetrable to people and livestock. Also being nitrogen fixing they csn grow in the poorest of soil....repairing this derelict construction site.
