    Windows 10 good or bad?

    Still all of the above are better than vista lmao, I put Linux on grandparents computers because they can't seem to break it like windows, definitely not ideal for working if Microsoft software is involved.

    Windows 10 good or bad?

    Window$ 10 and 8.1 are rubbish. Window$ 7 is good imo though I see no reason to use Window$ unless you plan on gaming. OSX is a nightmare. +1 for Linux

    Is this normal for a trichocereus graft stock?

    Thanks guys. I'm relived to hear it's to be expected on shot stock. The stock is scop x sausage at maybe 5" and appears to be not very scop like at all (particularly atm) interesting you say it might be trying to pup. I have another graft about the same size/age/stock but I cut all the areoles out and it's staying firm and fat. I saw philo's grafts and was very impressed. I've got to keep a look out for some stenocereus. Thanks for the help all, I can sleep easy knowing the loph probably won't melt overnight haha. If I can manage a decent stock I may regraft after taking the pups off if not I'll be hiding the stock. Out of sight out of mind aye.
  7. Hi people. I grafted this loph maybe 8 months ago. The loph itself is looking great and was as big as one of those pups at the beginning. The stock is not looking happy and I wondered if it's normal, most pics I see of grafted lophs the stocks seem a bit more full and less deflated looking. What do you reckon? Something to fix or something to ignore? I tried searching but I'm no sure what to call it? I wondered if low ferts might be to blame?

    Is this normal for a trichocereus graft stock?

    It certainly would look nicer zelly, I didn't want to do it if it was rotting or something, that would be counter productive. still i'd like to know why. the stock was nice and plump originally. Its as if the loph has stolen all its power lol. I've read in some other forums, people say there stock gets 'used up' I wonder if that's really a thing with trichs?

    Is this normal for a trichocereus graft stock?

    Well if talking about the discolouration at the bottom, it doesn't seem to be spreading. It does look dehydrated to me but when I water it the scion will pump up but stock remains like This. It's soft in the same way as flat tire is soft, the outside still seem tough but yea its got no air left lol. Suppose I regraft if it. Would a dissected stock tell a better story? Thanks guys.
  10. good necro. they are amazing. lophs look so bloated lol. I tried so hard to find misters in the pics. must be a lot of work taking care of all those.

    Grafts -Photos & Updates

    Dood got me interested in trying this out. Rhipsalidopsis under koehresii first attempt, this is a red flowering clone. It seems to have the meatiest stem pieces, trying a rather old bit. Seems very sticky so I'm hopeful. And another with two segments
  12. Yea the Bridgesii/Pach seem to throw roots easy. Maybe the Peru are different. I had a Scop not root for 8 months. It started pumping well before it grew roots. I ended up just planting it and am assuming it has grown roots
  13. Not a drop mate. What trich is ? How big?
  14. This grew roots in about 4 weeks on zeolite with a heat pad. The bottom of those pots are 6 cm. It was ex peres graft were the peres was impaled about 1/3 into the loph. The bottom pups where removed and they rooted in the same amount of time. I'm thinking heat is a key player.

    [Article] Tobacco - a forgotten healing plant

    I was thinking the same thing when I saw that site. I wonder how many smoker deaths are not from smoking, sure would be easy to fudge the results I think.

    Would have been a bad way to go. I'd much rather use reason than intuition.
