Damn you storm is what i cried to the skys from my knees.
Tonights storm in melbourne blew over the self that held all of my cactus seedlings and a few different plants.
I think i saved the khats and others plants but after sifting throught dirt and sand i gave up with 8 cactus seedlings saved.
Fffffffuuuuuuuucccccccckkkkkkkkkkkk!!!!!

Thanks for the offer bro but im more interested in growing from seed. I like the warm fuzzy feeling I get watching them grow.
Im going to order some seeds tommorow and start fresh.
The bright side is, i only just started last year so im only 1 year down

Yes, that's nature for you... sun to warm the soil, rain to sprout the seeds, and when your not looking...'WOOSH'...the wind takes it all away!. It happens. Never give up .
