After a hard freeze like we’ve experienced this month, do a scratch test on your plants to determine where to prune! 🌿 If you scratch and see brown, this means this branch is not alive and will not flush out new leaves. Keep scratching down the branch until you see green and prune right above the scratch. If all the branches show green underneath, good news, your plant is still alive, even if they dropped all their leaves! You can leave these branches alone as they will flush back out with new leaves come spring.🌱 Let us know what questions you have☺️ … #scratchtest #zone9b #gardeningtips #gardencenter #shoplocal

We actually make cat collars for all of the designs we have as dog collars too! 🐱🐶 in this video we’ll take a deep dive into our cat collars and what separated them from not only our dog collars but other brands as well! PS: the bandaids aren’t from our scratch test! (I just got into a fight with a stack of papers and lost 😞😂) 📸 : kitty shown is Calypso @lyras_standard_style 💖 . . . #catmom #catcollars
So much of what we do is just paying attention to the cues we get from nature. The scratch test is a perfect example of this – lean in, observe with contemplation and nature will give you every answer you seek. #scratchtest #pruning #landscapedesign #sustainability #atlantapermaculture #permacultureliving #permacultureatlanta #regenerativelandscaping #sustainablegarden #atlantalandscape #permacultureprinciple #zonezero

Hood PPF Torture Test — Fork, Screwdriver, Stapler vs Paint Protection 🚗🛠️✨ How tough is paint protection film really? On this McLaren hood, we put protective PPF through a brutal real-world torture test to show what it can handle—and why it’s one of the smartest, fully reversible upgrades for your paint. This isn’t just “light rubbing” or a gentle demo. We go hard with everyday tools to see how the film absorbs damage that would normally hit your clear coat. The goal: prove that PPF protects not only from road debris, but also from the dumb little scratches that happen during detailing, garage work, and daily life. ✅🧼 Prep the hood so the film is fully bonded and edge-safe ✅🍴 Scratch test with a fork to mimic random surface scuffs ✅🪛 Screwdriver pressure test to simulate harsh accidental contact ✅📎 Stapler impact/drag test to show how the film takes abuse ✅🧽 Wipe down + inspect the surface for marks vs real paint damage ✅✨ Reveal the difference: film takes the hit, paint stays safe Would you trust your paint without PPF after seeing this? 🎵 Music: #DYNOVE #McLaren #PPF #PaintProtectionFilm #PPFTest #TortureTest #ScratchTest #CarDetailing #PaintProtection #SupercarCare #WrappedWithPassion #CarCustomization #MusicByDYNOVE
save for later 💛 you never know when you’ll find something brass at the thrift store! Ways to know if it’s brass: 1. The magnet test 🧲 brass is not magnetic so throw a magnet in your purse next time you go thrifting! 2. Weight- This is the most obvious one when comparing to cheap materials (not all lookalikes are plated steel) 3. Casting marks- A lot of brass hardware is made using casting methods. Check for a seem or a raised line from where the two halves of its mold came together. 4. The scratch test- if you can scratch it with something like a coin on the underside of the object, it should show shiny bright yellow underneath 5. Patina- brass without a lacquer or protective coating with show patina over time! This is an oxidation process that can look blue/green or brown in color Let me know if you’ve found anything cool that was brass at the thrift store ☺️⚜️ #thrifting #secondhand #brasshardware #unlacqueredbrass #collectedinteriors
Here’s how I check the lift on joico’s silverlight while blonding: I do a scratch test in the foil to see how light the highlights are lifting.💡#joicopartner Have you tried silverlight yet? It’s my fave for silvery, cool blondes that fight brassiness but still giving me the 9+ levels of lift I need. P.S. I love answering your questions in the comments, so keep them coming! 🫶🏻 #omgartistry 💕 #oliviathompson #hairstylist #hairsalon #hairtutorials #joico #haircolor #haircolorist #hairdresser #saloncentric #ittakesapro #cosmoprofbeauty #hairvideo #hairvideos #protip #behindthechair #blondehair #hairtutorial #highlights #americansalon #modernsalon #joicosilverlight

We’re back with another No Stupid Questions tip: how to tell if a branch is still alive🌿 Try the simple scratch test by gently scraping the surface of the bark off with your fingernail. If it’s green underneath, the branch is still healthy! Even if there aren’t visible signs of growth or leaves on the branch, you can prune it back to a node to encourage fresh growth and prevent legginess. No green? Then the branch can no longer produce growth and pruning it back helps to keep your plants tidy and redirect energy into new growth elsewhere on the plant✂️ Plant questions? We’ve got answers. Drop them in the comments or DM us, and you might see your question featured next 🌱 Stay tuned for more plant care tips or head to our blog at thesill.com! #plantsmakepeoplehappy #gardening #plantcare #gardeningtips
