Using Dyer's Woad to Dye a Shirt

DAMN

[@Moweka.]

It is just a blue Pee-shirt...

[@Unei1995]

here in germany we have a saying for skipping work which is "blau machen", as you might've guessed it translates to "making blue"and this saying comes from the medieval times you've mentioned. Because back then when you were someone who was dying clothes blue you basically did nothing but prepare the Bucket with Dyer's Woad, piss in it every so often and lay back the whole day :D Must've been a great feeling back then that the royals were wearing stuff that was soaked in your piss for days on end :D

[@WaRLoKWYATT]

Royal Blue was not created this way, it was created by heating together limestone, sand and copper into the chemical compound calcium copper silicate, which created the richly saturated royal-blue pigment called Egyptian blue.

[@jasontbo6663]

@@WaRLoKWYATT he meant royals as royalty as if the dyer worked for a monarch or something.

Man, you've got an amazing screen presence. It makes me feel like you genuinely care about your subscibers and educating them, you never sound too patronizing, and you'd be an amazing professor, I'm much more knowledgeable about science and chemical reactions after watching your videos. Good job, Cody, thanks to my mental issues, it's been a while since I could actually absorb this much information this well.

[@USWaterRockets]

If you dye a jacket this way, you get a "Pee Coat".

[@theCodyReeder]

+USWaterRockets hahha :)

[@laustudie]

+Cody'sLab I use my pee as fertelizer. It is very dilluted in water so it does'nt really smell. Also pee is just human waste materials, when you think about it is not as gross as it sounds. There is very little bacteria in there and in small ammounts it works great with plants.

[@pvc988]

Would using hydrogen peroxide as an oxidizer work?

[@DrakkarCalethiel]

I think it should work since it is a strong oxidizer. Let's wait until Cody replies...

[@TheGuerrCZ]

Why would you want to use H2O2 when you can just use O2 from air?

[@pvc988]

+TheGuerrCZ Because it might be more effective.

[@rich1051414]

+TheGuerrCZ To make the oxygenation more controlled. If he used a tub he could dump in the pee juice then dump in a tub of peroxide to immediately and evenly convert back to dye.

[@theCodyReeder]

+pvc988 It would actually; I tried to make the chemical by oxidizing thiourea but small amounts of peroxide in my product was keeping the dye from dissolving.

[@colinhoek]

I'm watching you since you had about 20k subs. Its nice seeing your channel grow so big. congrats man!

How was the conversation between him and his sister. Sister: What are you up to? Cody: I'm a making a blue shirt with my pee. Sister: ...

[@skycarl]

Cody,,, that's called olden days tye dye.,,, cool.

[@adamflyshotmail]

I imagine the blue pigment in those plants is like THC in marijuana, when the plant grows seeds, it allocates less energy to making the pigment because It's much less important.

we had a goat and he refused to eat dyer's woad.

+NeXTSTORMING Water is a solvent, one of the things that solve into water is Oxygen. It is absorbed physically but not chemically into the water. The water being deoxygenated means that the oxygen dissolved in the water is removed, not the oxygen that is part of the water's molecular structure.

[@pixelpiratepo]

I love this so much. I've been keeping a few plants (contained) to dye with and I'll have to try out this method. ALSO "noxious weed" doesn't mean that it doesn't taste good! It means that some authority has deemed it "injurious to agricultural or horticultural crops, natural habitats or ecosystems, or humans or livestock."

[@RandyLunn]

Cody, you continue to amaze me. Well done!

[@mtownzach]

I know this video has some time behind it, but I just wanted to let everyone know that the leaves and roots are used in Chinese medicine as an antiviral, so it's good to help fight cold and flu. I tracked down some plants last summer and collected a bunch of seeds. I'm growing some of them deliberately for the dye and medicinal uses.. this video will help me this coming summer. Thanks!

[@antimattermemes3491]

Once again, your videos never cease to amaze me, keep up the amazing work!

[@laurabennettyoutube]

Very cool! Other people have probably mentioned this already: to get a more intense final color, it helps to soak the fabric in a mordant (made with alum, tannin, or iron) before putting the fabric in the dye. Overall I love the video - ancient dye processed with accessible modern materials !
