Lichen Clocks

Concept and Considerations

Installments of Lichen Clocks can be found in many places, but nevertheyless need certain basic conditions to guarantee their function.
Among the most important premises is, of course, that climate and other ecological factors allow lichen to settle and to grow.
Moreover, lichen clock installments on stone may be easier to use (and thus more reliable) than lichen clocks on trees. However, in any case one will need a trained eye and also patience to read them.

As ecological conditions are not easy to controll, this is of course also for Lichen Clocks. Thus, Lichen Clocks can be classed among the mechanisms for clocking [Hazy Time] (see ibid.).

Lichen Clocks are common in certain [EcoTimeZones] (see ibid.), and they have been also proven for being used in therapy treatments of certain forms of [Time Sickness] (see ibid.).

Note: One might claim urban Lichen Clocks being perfect pendants to [Bubble Gum Clocks] (see ibid.)
