Looking good! The orange really stands out!
Let me know how the birdsnest does. I may be interested in something like that.

I fudged up today, I got 3 5gal buckets of RO water.. somehow put too much salt in 2 of the 3 buckets. I tested salinity about a half hour after I mixed and it was thru the roof.. what's the best way to fix this?? I have another empty 5 gal bucket I could use somehow, any advice??

Start mixing the plain RO with the saltwater in your extra bucket. Start by putting maybe 2 gallons salty in the empty bucket, then add a gallon of RO. Test. See what it says and go from there until you get the right mix. Good luck! I did that the other day. Thankfully I had more RO and didn't have to go back to the store!

Set up an outside distillery like they did on survivor man the other day? That was awesome, and effective but he only got about 16 oz of fresh water a day.... If you have a hot enough fire you could get Fresh water faster.

Lmao wouldn't that be something lol
Stupid question but, since I tested the water so early after mixing, should I just keep stirring it up and retest later? Or is it not going to drop?
