Tio Posted September 7, 2012 Good morning. Hope the weather is treating you well. What's your favourite plant? I have only just started collecting plants but my Favourite plant would have to be my first plant that I aquired: A Trichocereus pachanoi; Easy to grow, very rewarding and a must have Entheogenic plant 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Halif Posted September 7, 2012 ^pachanoi is a must-have, indeed! Welcome to the forum. I hope to visit NZ one day - amazing environment and great people (just basing that on the Kiwis I've met). Last time I had enough money for a holiday we (girlfriend and I) were planning a trip to NZ for a week or two, but ended up going to Thailand. We worked out all these activities to do and places to visit in NZ, but then we saw that for the same amount of money (less, actually) we could go and stay in Thailand for a month. We had a good trip, but quality of experience is more important than just length and sometimes I wonder if we should have gone to NZ because things got a bit hazy for me in good ol' T-Land with some blue tablets and cheap alcohol too readily available. Ahhhh... good times... (or were they? To be honest I can't remember but the photos look good!) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ahhhh... good times... (or were they? To be honest I can't remember but the photos look good!) lol nice one, New Zealand's ripe for the picking. Come and do some bushwalks, and you might not want to go home again. hey Tio, are you a tricho~master? Ie trying to catch them all, as i once was I could perhaps entice you with cuttings if you stick around. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tio Posted September 7, 2012 hey Tio, are you a tricho~master? Ie trying to catch them all, as i once was I could perhaps entice you with cuttings if you stick around. Haha yes i once was, but now I have pretty much have all the Trichos I need, I will have a small forest soon! At the moment I am mainly looking out for the rarer Trichocereus spp. like crests and monstroe forms and other harder to find plants. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bogfrog Posted September 7, 2012 Ah yes. Another tricho forest ae, nice! We'd love to see some pics of your collection at some stage. Check out trademe, there is a t. Pachanoi crest with a very funky looking section for $20 atm. Also keep an eye on your local bunnings, as t. Thelegonus crests and t. Pachanoi crests seem to turn up there relatively often and if you are very lucky you may even find a pachanoi odittiy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
