  • You guys really liked my in soil time lapses, so I decided to do another one. This time I put 3 cigarettes in a mason jar full of soil and left it in there for a whole year. Underground time lapse.

    Super cool time lapse and quite the eye opener. There must be quadrillions of these scattered about the world, buried in our soils, in the wild, in the gardens, affecting plant life everywhere. I’m probably responsible for hundreds of them back in my youth I’m sorry to say.
    Cigarettes were the best thing I ever gave up. Only took a handful of attempts and 30 years of my life to beat the dam things. I’m only 7 months and 2 weeks clean of them but I’m over them for good. Still get the cravings, but I take deep breaths and think about all the people we’ve lost to these disgusting things. It was my favourite poison but that’s exactly what they were. Good riddance.

    Absolutely LOVED watching this - especially all the mites, collembola, nematodes, and other tiny little invertebrates that in the accelerated depiction, seemed to be zipping around all through the soil in the jar. The persistence of the filters was not surprising, but a clear demonstration of how long they'll last in the environment when they just get thrown out a window or otherwise dropped on the ground.

    I enjoyed the video and the time and dedication. One question I have is that it's in a jar which is fantastic but throughout the entire video there's a light burning which is I'm assuming simulating daylight. But if you did this experiment outside in the elements I believe the results would be much much different considering different soil and temperature differentials that is if you truly wanted to see what happened to a cigarette in the earth over a year but don't get me wrong I love the video

    REALLY awesome video - I loved seeing all the little critters zooming about!! I think that little plant might have been a young fern plant. I reckon it might have passed because of shock. If you're happy for me to share what I'd do next time: I'd plant it in another sealed pot with a similar humidity/atmosphere using the soil it originally grew in. Over time you'd be able to acclimatise the plant to being exposed to a different environment (air temperature or humidity changes, etc). I've grown a bunch of ferns in the past, so hope that helps. Great content!

    • @Thedarkbunnyrabbit
      @Thedarkbunnyrabbit 10 หลายเดือนก่อน +3
