Ed Dunkel Posted April 8, 2002 Author Share Posted April 8, 2002 What a responce!!! I have more offers than I can send away to. I'll try and propagate some more (should be easy) and get everyone a cutting in time. I'll be a little busy this week so I'll have to send them off later. Some time next week.Hope you can wait.

Pablo Posted April 8, 2002 Share Posted April 8, 2002 seems like i'm too late but i've got shitload of calea foliage and cuttings if your interested. [email protected] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gomaos Posted April 9, 2002 Share Posted April 9, 2002 Hi sass,just a question re calea harvesting.My Calea has grown pretty big and has lots of foliage. I'd like to harvest some but don't want to cripple the plant.So what do you do?Just take leaves from anywhere, or the lower branches the higher ones or is there no rule?Do dry calea leaves keep long, i.e. remain active?

Pablo Posted April 9, 2002 Share Posted April 9, 2002 well my calea has grow so big that i dont think it can support it's self for much longer. i've cut huge amounts of it before, like 1/4 of the plant and it just grows back stronger... then again i cant get rid of the syrian rue weeds in my backyard either so i'm not resposible for you crippling your plants . as for drying... i really dont know, fresh definitely seems stronger but i think i've used dry with success before as well... my memories not that good on this one... plus the effects arent exactly profound in most cases, one night you take some and have awsome dreams, another night, nothing.well hope that helped Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pablo Posted April 9, 2002 Share Posted April 9, 2002 oh and adrian, i'll get around to sending your cuttings soon, i've been flat broke for like 3 weeks, only just got my car back and i should start working again in a few days. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pablo Posted April 12, 2002 Share Posted April 12, 2002 why do you want to wait until it grows more? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ed Dunkel Posted April 12, 2002 Author Share Posted April 12, 2002 Because it is practically bold from all the removed growth (cuttings) I have to wait for the plant to grow some more side shoots.This means that all the people that missed out will be in poll position for the next round of cuttings, sorrry :|E D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ashoka Posted April 16, 2002 Share Posted April 16, 2002 Hi EdHow do you get your sceletium cuttings to root? I have tried once before but they died on me. Do you have any special procedures you follow? That is do you use a makeshift humidity tent or is this unnecesary?ThanksAshoka Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ed Dunkel Posted April 16, 2002 Author Share Posted April 16, 2002 Nothing special. I take cuttings of varying lengths (~3-8 cm) and dip them in some root hormone powder (this is probably not even neccesary) and place them in a sandy soil mixture (cactus mix works just fine) and in a week or two they are rooted and ready to transplant. Try and keep them from wilting by not placing them in a too hot a spot. Have them under shade cloth outside or on a window sill. I find outside on a warm (25ºC) day works best, high humidity is probably not the best. The slight stress of moving air and temperature fluctuation seems to make them stronger plants in the long run. If you baby them too much they just end up being weak and need more careing to get to strength.Hope this helps. E D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
