   you'll have to experiment,
   you'll have to experiment, but I'm not sure a penetrating dye alone will blend "white", brown, purple, and green areas of poplar. Bleaching may be a necessary first step, and Jeff Jewitt's books (and others) likely will identify the proper bleach for poplar. A dark color may require use of stain with or without penetrating dye first to even out the color of the wood.

   Thanks DonStephan,

   For this piece I am lucky that the poplar I used was a very uniform batch of very light green and not the whole spectrum.I Have read that if I use a red dye to start then that will Kill the green,then sealcoat,then dark stains.Would the red show through and if so maybe its better to start with a dark brown dye?

   If you start with a dark brown that that is on the warm side--including a bit more red you may not need a separate red dye to cancel the green tinge. Use the dye to get you into the dark color range. If you can spray dye so it doesn't need to be wiped, you will minimize any tendancy to blotch. Otherwise, I recommend a powdered water soluble dye (TransFast or the Lockwood dyes, as opposed to TransTint or other multi-solvent concenrates.) That makes sealing the dye easier--for example allowing to use shellac for the speed of drying. Then you can continue to dark shade with a pure pigment stain, probably a gel stain. Unless you use the dye to get to nearly a dark enough shade, pigmented stain will do little to add darkness, just depth, and interest.

   Thanks Steve,

   I have mixed transtint dyes with water and then used a light sealcoat[dewaxed shellac] followed by an oil-based stain.Are you saying I should'nt do that?

   There's nothing really wrong
   There's nothing really wrong with that though with hand applied shellac, the TransTint is likely to have quite a bit of lifting into the shellac. Even if dissolved in water for application, TransTint remains soluable in alcohol. If you method of applying shellac--spraying, or with a quick light hand by brush, etc, doesn'tredissolve too much of the dye, then the final result will be just fine.

   You can get a nice even color by first sealing the wood. Then with japan color or universal make a beige toner and add it to the lacquer. Spray a light base color on the wood over the sealer - then a van dyke brown glaze followed by clear coat with possibly a little van dyke japan or universal added to the clear.

   CUBICIN DAPTOMYCIN
   Daptomycin is a cyclic lipopeptide antibiotic produced by the creature Streptomyces roseosporus.[14][15] Daptomycin consists of thirteen amino acids, ten of which are arranged in a cyclic fashion, and three that adorn an exocyclic tail. Two non-proteinogenic amino acids exist in the lipopeptide, the peculiar amino acid L-kynurenine (Kyn), only known to Daptomycin, and L-3-methylglutamic acid (mGlu). The N-terminus of the exocyclic tryptophan surplus is coupled to decanoic acid, a approach manacle (C10) fatty acid. Biosynthesis is initiated alongside the coupling of decanoic acid to the N-terminal tryptophan, followed not later than the coupling of the unused amino acids past nonribosomal peptide synthetase (NRPS) mechanisms. For all time, a cyclization at any rate occurs, which is catalyzed through a thioesterase enzyme, and subsequent unchain of the lipopeptide is granted.

   The non-ribosomal peptide synthetase (NRPS) liable benefit of the fusion of Daptomycin is encoded by means of three overlapping genes, dptA, dptBC and dptD. The dptE and dptF genes, unhesitatingly upstream of dptA, are liable to to be knotty in the installation of daptomycin biosynthesis by coupling decanoic acid to the N-terminal Trp.[16] These novella genes (dptE, dptF ) agree to products that most able work in conjunction with a in perfect accord condensation specialization to acylate the first amino acid (tryptophan). These and other novella genes (dptI, dptJ) are believed to be tangled in supplying the non-proteinogenic amino acids L-3-methylglutamic acid and Kyn; they are located next to the NRPS genes.[16]
