Life Support

This is the little organic oasis in my cubicle at work. What I do for the flora and the fauna appeals to my nurturing side. The IV irrigation setup is the latest innovation.

I got some used IV bags from a friend's vet. The idea of recycling these bags is appealing on a couple of levels. I like that I can set them up with premeasured fertilizer and control the drip rate to last for a week or two. In the mean time, these bags aren't resting in a land fill. I am still working on some refinements, but the idea is showing promise. The aesthetics are almost exactly what I was looking for.

This site has been in a coma for a long time now. What you are seeing is just a tiny spike in the EEG, but at least it is a sign of life.
