haha here we go the 2 experts dissagree
I would tend to go with zelly and your original thoughts of peru spines dont quite look bridgey enough for me

do you have holes in the bottom of your FC ?
you should have holes on all sides including the bottom the perlite shouldn't stay wet enough to go bad in any way
if you need to bring the humidity down why not just add more holes to let more air flow you want plenty of air flow
-
a bubbler should increase humidity not decrease it
I would suggest bringing your FC inside the house rather than the shed if temps in the shed are going to be a problem
a shed is going to also potentially increase your risk of contams unless its a fairly clean place
that being said contams aren't really a problem once your cakes are colonised its very hard for any contams to take hold
this is why airing out your FC is not a problem
you also say you have a bug problem in there another reason to maybe stay away from the shed
and a fan is most definitely not a good idea unless you are able to keep your humidity up while the fan runs
which will be very difficult all the fan will do is decrease humidity and dry everything out
unless your FC is absolutely huge like an entire room none of these things are necessary
shotgun terrarium remove lid once a day and fan it out give it a mist with a spray bottle once or twice a day nothing to it

so my partner and I are trying to sell a house at the moment
how long do we have before it gets to the point of not even being worth selling we've already lost 100 grand on it in the last year

Anybody heard of this looks like it could be ok
any fans of trailer park boys might recognise this guy/girl hahaha
I was confused as hell at first I thought maybe it was fake but it is a real documentary thats in the making
just thought I'd share for anyone who might be interested- 4

not quite gonna cut it unfortunately miss meander it needs to be happening automatically
so if I was going to try and mess around and see if i could learn some of this crazy electronics arduino stuff
would something like one of these be good to buy to help learn how it all works

I told ya myco, young ppl and this fkn arduino ;) offering to build shit easy like it's all an easy to follow recipe!
Hey ace next time we catch up I want you to arduino me a remote entry thing for my front gate, I hate opening it haha
hahaha I know electronics for me is like trying to read some kind of alien language
I recently tried to see if I could figure out how to wire up a standalone crossfader for my turntables
shit I felt pretty stupid once I started reading stuff and watching videos even with that help I had no clue hahaha
thanks for all the help and ideas guys your certainly giving me alot to think about for my future greenhouse builds
I might have to hit you up Ace
the functions needed to be controlled would probably be fairly simple really (for someone who knows what they're doing)
all I'd really be looking at controlling is humidity and temperature
as darklight suggested the heat sensitive pneumatic roof vents was what I'd planned on using
so really just something to help control humidity would be great

I have always dreamed of having a greenhouse with full control via computer haha
I might just drag this up again once I finally can build my big greenhouse
been paying off our land for just over a year now its been one shitty fuken hell of a year but we'll be stickin a shed on there in jan
and start building house not long after that once that sheds up though the greenhouses will begin ahhh finally -
hahah ok thanks guys well I've never even heard of the word arduino just had to check google
I'm definitely not one to be messin around with electronics I wouldn't even know where to start haha
its surprising there isnt more timers that can achieve this
it would seem my best bet would be to try one of those analogue ones
maybe give wert's idea go see what kinda sketchy shit I can rig up with a few different timers hopefully that will do what I need
thanks for the help guys I'll give that a go -
do you know the brand and model number or anything
-
Hey guys I have been trying to find a timer that can go on and off multiple times a day
I really didn't think this would be all that difficult but its proving to be not such an easy thing to find
I have managed to find one however its American so obviously not suitable for here in oz
if anybody can help me out on this one it would be greatly appreciated
P.S. I didn't know where to put this so I just put it here -
Yeh I know I keep looking at it thinking about where I'm gonna go with it
its rather overwhelming haha so much can be done -
few more pics
I scored this beautiful big ficus from the kerbside rubbish collection when I was up in perth back at the start of the year
I chopped the top off it and half of its root system and got it all potted up in some fresh soil
its coming back great now cant wait to do somethin with this gonna be a few years before I can get it into a pot and lookin nice has an awesome trunk on it

glad to hear its not just me thats getting some pretty shitty success rates with astro's and peres
I've done plenty of them plenty of them have taken no problems some have stalled others have immediately shown growth
but as for rate of them taking its definitely noticeably lower than other cacti -
I'd be interested to know how being white affects your situation
-
If you really want pups from it I would say the best and possibly only way to get it to pup would be to chop it
cut the bulk of the roots off do and upside down graft with the bottom rooted section with areoles then BAP
you should get pups no problems- 2

$650 a fortnight is actually really good how can you complain about that seriously

shit was hard but I survived
maybe dont buy so much crack man- 3
