    Menstruation as fertilizer.

    My girlfriend has just started to go on the blob a couple of days ago so I could ask her to go out and squat in the garden when she changes her tampons. My weekend is fucked anyway so worth a try... If I disappear from this forum after posting this thread. Then you,ll might as well assume that I've died a rather painful death...

    Quarantine naughty list?

    It could just be a coincidence however my experience of Aussie customs is a mixed bag. I used to buy Bush Tucker Seeds on E bay on a regular basis from Aussie to the UK. Most of the time they arrived with no incident in the little jiffy type bags. After a while the nice Aussie customs would slap on a big orange "ID RECORDED" sticker on the envelopes even though all my stuff was perfectly legal, almost every time I bought more seeds. Since my arrival in New Zealand I've bought just one packet of seed from Aussie and they stuck on the sticker again... Incidentally on my way over here via Dubai customs, no problem apart from one scary female staff member quizzing me on a spyglass in my backpack. I get into Melbourne customs and some little weasel of a customs bloke "confiscated" a pair of folding scissors the blades were only 3 centimeters long if that... They missed the large metal blade on my trowel that was packed away with my metal detector in the hold tho lols. I get into the Kiwi customs and they just waved me through. I had a 3 month tourist visa and they asked me how long did I want to stay here so I said "6 months", they stamped my passport for 6!!! Insane!!!

    would you walk away from you job for $61k?

    Take the money if you have a plan. Only if you have a plan. You could invest it in a business, its a risk but you may only get this chance for just a certain amount of time. Find out how long this offer is on for and have a good think about what you can do with the money to make a positive and permanent change in your life.

    Catha edulis seed wanted please.

    Sorted thank you to the kind member who gave me some nice red leaf catha cuttings. When they are larger I,ll circulate them some more
  14. It looks like my search for Catha edulis seed or plants is back to the drawing board after a recent disappointment ... Does anyone out there still have it? I don't have a lot to trade at the moment as just starting out again but can give you cash for it. What I'm looking for is a mixture of the broad red leafed form along with the narrow leaved forms. Fresh seed may be the best option perhaps? Also but not too important is sinicuichi and ayahuasca but the Catha edulis is the one that I really want to grow.
  15. You have the ideas, imagination, along with the most important thing in my book, please excuse the pun lol, "life experience" and that deeper understanding of the human mind. You clearly have the eloquence to get those thoughts of yours out of your head and onto paper which for me is the most difficult thing to do. Some one I think here mentioned carrying a note book around with you for the times when inspiration hits you. Great idea. I would be inclined to just write down what comes into your head whether it makes sense or not. When you think you could have enough material to play with then put it all together and see what happens. A botanical theme has got to be a good way to go, One book that I will always remember is "Hothouse" by Brian Aldiss. A book about highly evolved sentient ethno plants could be one way? We may be closer to that reality more than is obvious... You make the rules Ceres. I look forward to reading them...

    NZ Salvia giveaway

    Ok I tried it the other day. The 2 salvia plants that I paid an insane price for, just before I joined the forum have been putting on some leaf so I decided to take out the central stem tip at the top of the larger of the 2 plants. The leaves were only about 2 inches wide and 3 inches long in old money so did the chew it a bit thing and then held it under my tongue for about 20 mins. The juices were difficult to not swallow but were not unpleasant. This was only a small amount but it did have tangible side affects. The first noticeable thing after about 5 mins was a feeling of calmness with mild euphoria. During this time I walked around the yard and became very alert yet still calm and was "very" aware of the plants around me, the larger of the salvia plants appeared to fizz with green in an effervescent manner, they felt benign and welcoming. There was a depth to the plants all around. For the first time I noticed the jasmine on the pergola had 3 berries on it. This was significant for me as I had wondered for some time if this plant was an infertile cultivar as had never seen this plant with berries before both here and in the UK. Along with this experience, there was this feeling that there was a "creativity" just behind my eyes wanting to come out. This whole state of mind left me feeling tired with a slight headache but otherwise fine. When the salvia's originally arrived in the post, some of the leaves were too damaged to remain on the plants so I dried them. When they were smoked in a roll up, no affects were felt at all. I'm not a smoker per say so am unclear if this is relevant or not... Well there ya go, that's my first encounter with the Shepherdess...

    Have you ever met a psychopath (corporate or otherwise)

    Yes I do see your point, my tactic has been to ignore them mostly, however this doesn't always work and when you mention "i consider it similar to the way cats are drawn to people who hate cats. if they see that you are not willing to play their games, they will see a challenge, which (if you are not careful to be completely neutral around them) will intensify their desire to engage you. is so true and has indeed happened. My problem is I lack the social skills necessary to face up to a psychopath without making myself look like the aggressor/fool and them the innocent victim. They seem to have this ability to "tune into you" that makes you feel unclean and yes "infected", with everyone else nearby completely unawares. They know just how much they can get away with so its a very subtle challenge that only you know about but would be seen as unreasonable if you reacted to it. They always want a piece of you, something that you own, your partner, even if its just your time, they leave loss, anger and resentment behind them. Its funny what you say about cats, dogs always make a beeline to me before going to the person next to me every time. The big slobbery exuberant dogs make me wary and they know it along with those yappy little tiny phyco toy breeds that go for your ankles. Apologies if your a dog owner btw... Dogs and people are very alike in many ways.

    Have you ever met a psychopath (corporate or otherwise)

    One thing that I have noticed about psychopaths is their ability/need to connect with you. They can be charming/captivating or even malevolent. Deprive them of that connection/reaction and keep as much distance from them as possible. They literally feed off other people. Simplistic I know but that's it in a nutshell. However this advice is ageless "keep your friends close and your enemies closer" now this is the most dangerous form of juggling of all..

    what's wrong with this world?

    Read this book, its a real eye opener "A visionary madness : the case of James Tilly Matthews and the influential machine" you cannot reason with someone who is insane, logic just doesn't cut the mustard in this situation... In my opinion "people are nuts"
  23. I,m after a Calea z seedling/plant. I can trade a young Silene u plant in return or of course buy it from you. There must be some one in NZ that is growing Calea z?

    vine that is able to mimic multiple hosts

    Incredible, a truly wonderful plant. It just shows plants are self aware and there is more to them that meets the eye.
