hey altenate, nice one. also wondering how many trees u have . i have one tree that appears to have its male and female bits. anyways as bunyas do a lot better seedwise in a stand i was thinking same with wollemis but maybe with hand pollination it would be ok

well i don’t know if I’m a mediator but i find this sort of thing happens to me... being on the edge of two people having an argument, they'll argue even more because they misunderstand each other, both not realising that the other hasn’t understood them. and I’m having to explain to them, because it is clear to me what each of them meant, and how the other has interpreted it. and. then. they don’t listen to me anyway.

so i did the test at the first link this morning INFP, dont remember percentages thinking i might get a different result i took the second test now, INFP-T. introverted 87% eesh. turbulent 85%, prospecting 84% why INFPs only 4%, i dont know about this stuff but i thought they would average out. whats the most common?

Does it have a main root coming down from the fat taproot? Cos that's prob what I'd cut off rather than cutting into the fatty bit. When I cut roots I make sure there's a decent amount of fine roots above where I'm cutting. Do you have problems with rot generally or just looking to experiment?

I reckon if it's your backyard, you can do what you want there. But are you sure they're Chinese elms? depending how big they are (or rather how small) perhaps you could uproot them and score some gnarly bonsai stock? -
Variegated astrophytum offset propagation, 8 different pups!
flora replied to Conv3rgence's topic in Cacti & Succulents
cool! i had an asterias pup like that after the top got eaten off by a rat. wasnt variegated though sadly -
it just doesnt seem the desired cultivars are available commercially in australia yet. it probably wont be long though. they are grown ornamentally a lot here, i was planning on harvesting some fruits to make my own umeboshi as well. i imagine they are all edible, but i understand for fruit production you will want certain cultivars. best suggestion i can think of is to grow from seed so when the ume clones come along you will have rootstock for grafting

I'd call it the Kobald (ie goblin blue) or Absolem Daze or just Absolem

Did u hear about the constipated mathematician? He worked it out with a pencil -
I've seen horseradish, garlic and vit c sold as hayfever remedy so is worth a go maybe. I think mustard makes you produce excess mucus doesn't it? Could be good for flushing out your sinuses... If you think of hayfever as a condition related to asthma, eczema and arthritis there are many natural remedies that may help as i see it ... possibilities being antihistamines, anti-inflammatories, adaptogens, & depending on what your main symptoms are try for symptomatic relief also so if your'e wheezy the look to the respiratory herbs etc. as i’m having trouble with my eyes i got some eyebright extract, + fish & krill oil i'm also taking withania extract (adaptogen), boswellia serrata extract (anti-inflammatory), propolis (bioflavonoids) , vit b5 & starting on the medicinal mushroom extracts. there are natural antihistamines, nettle is said to be a good one i’ve had this shit for 20 yrs , neva usually take antihistamine pills but this season if i’m going in the garden or mowing the lawn :/ its impossible. Cetirizine zonked me for 24 hrs. Fexofenadine doesnt make me drowsy but its not totally effective, at least i can go be outside in the garden after taking it. could try bee pollen? i dunno Tried many things in the past.,, only thing that ever actually worked was duboisia myoporoides leaf chewing. Which has its side effects as well. I found eating camembert cheese would coat my throat so it wouldn't itch... seriously (desperate) Cucumber slices or frozen teaspoons on the eyelids

dcliw reaching for some moisturising eye drops to soothe your dry, irritated eyes, you mistakenly grab a bottle of essential oil instead... then proceeding to the bathroom clutching said essential oil, you unscrew the lid and hold it up to your eye which is peeled wide open, until with your wide open eye you observe at close range what it is you are about to drop into your eye and you pull away at the last possible moment as essential oil drips heavily down your face
