solomon Posted February 1, 2016 Spotted a young B. sanguinea flowering DSCN0488 (Medium).JPG And with a pod ripening DSCN0487 (Medium).JPG Six weeks later and still doesn't look like it's gonna drop anytime soon.. Brug brujos, how long do your fruits take to ripen? 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RogerColgreen Posted February 2, 2016 Fun Day: Ordered some BRITISH grapevines from Sunnybank Vines in the UK, planned skullduggery for how to import them. Got in touch with Mattslandscaping to negotiate a $250 order of BIG torch cacti for spring. Received A. valdezii grafted onto A. myriostigma, and M. 'Arizona Snowcap' grafted on M. geommetrizans from 123.mirka in Poland via ebay. Six-point valdezii on eight-point myriostigma. NICE!!!! 123.mirka sent TEN random Astrophyta as a gift! All about 1" across, a good mix. He has more valdezii-on-myriostigma on ebay, take a look! Was sent an enormous number of PV berries for sprouting FRESH. Went through the WHOLE tech -- sterilizing tupperwares, soil, and soaking seeds in dilute bleach after mooshing off the pulp. Arrived 1 Jan --> First sprouts 1 Feb, FOUR WEEKS! I tell you guys! Get FRESH SEED, FOLLOW THE TECH, and it works! ---Roger. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
☽Ţ ҉ĥϋηϠ₡яღ☯ॐ€ðяئॐ♡Pϟiℓℴϟℴ Posted February 2, 2016 (edited) watered and fed using aeroponic ferts and root gel in the mix added a few viridis cuttings to the aquarium.. added a few successful viridis cuttings to the 'rfb' under plastic fruit snack packaging trimmed the acacias , they just survived spidermites which are finally gone.. dropped self in it telling kids that you can grow citrus plants from supermarket seeds so saved 4 nice chunky grapefruit seeds to try some point in future and have a new mission of limes lemons and several different types of oranges , goodness knows where they're gna grow if not bonsai or something lol Edited February 2, 2016 by ☽Ţ ҉ĥϋηϠ₡яღ☯ॐ€ðяئॐ♡Pϟiℓℴϟℴ 6 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
☽Ţ ҉ĥϋηϠ₡яღ☯ॐ€ðяئॐ♡Pϟiℓℴϟℴ Posted February 8, 2016 added another successful psychotria viridis cutting to the RFB from the aeropod :3 with a little humidity dome .. took a fresh aya cutting to replace the lost ones.. had a 2nd muricata and a 2nd alicia sprouting over the last day after breaking the soil the day prior.. moved some cactulets around ... watered some reviving acacias.. bought another one of them funny LED floodlight thingys with double the oomf in it... probably for the RFB... Two legendary entheos waited till i gave up on them before allowing themselves to come into the window of possible opportunity which was mighty strange but very welcome news... umm... i think that's it ... oh yeah , fed some nitey to the RFB...

☽Ţ ҉ĥϋηϠ₡яღ☯ॐ€ðяئॐ♡Pϟiℓℴϟℴ Posted February 21, 2016 took some pics of progress to compare with after the move bent some aya vines in the RFB.. fed some nitey to them all in there.. checked the ants, still munching on hummous.. hoped for the best with the theobroma with one last leafbud left.. finally got round to potting up and labelling a peruvianus pichu .. cleared out 28 failed cactie seed pots and wondered how it happened.. added survivors to the closer light ... swapped their positions for the previous few years cactlet sowings... checked the other cactlets.. fed some aeroponic ferts to the magick waterfall.. fed some of that shit to the baby ayas too in exo-terra #2.. checked acacia's rebounding after the mitey bastages ... wondering if the acacias slew many themselves..? added a bridgesii planter to the sunniest windowsill to make up for the lost acacias.. salvia got a bigger hat ... doing well on the cold window so far.. - will be nice to not have to depend on the RFB to grow salvia added leaves to the underwater bonsai.. noticed 2 viridis leaf cuts rooted in the aquarium.. - yay!! - i wonder if virola would germinate in there inside a little cage for plec protection?.. made sure all was neat and ready to be moved when the word go gets said.. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
perelandra Posted February 23, 2016 Cut my Kanna back, started a fermentation from the cuttings (around 2 full handfuls- about half a plastic sandwich bag). Interested to see how the plant survives these first cool Perth nights. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

theuserformallyknownasd00d Posted February 27, 2016 If you have trees in the yard you can tie them into the forks of branches. I've done this at my place with bromeliads, orchids and Epiphyllums. They take a while to go cos most have come from potted environments but you will get extremely strong plants in the long run once they settle 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
