Hi! I am a new member and want to introduce myself. I have been lurking for a few weeks and found this forum to be rich with knowledge. Anyway, I have a collection of cacti that I have been growing for many years. And, I am in the process of expanding my garden. I will eventually post some pictures when I get my camera out of storage. So, Hellow everybody and happy growing! Bridgesii

Hey all, in celebration of my up and coming 2000th post (where I fully expect to transcend into some kind of higher spiritual being/ ranting egotistical vagrant) I just wanna give a little back to you'se-all by offering up a piece of my pride and joy, a rather unique cacti I found in Vic. Winner gets half of it. The owner said it came from a cutting that he had on his farm for 20 years, which itself had come as a cutting from a 30 year old plant on his friend's farm. As far as he knows, none of the originals still exist, only the one he has in his yard. He was very happy to give me a piece and I said I'd spread it far and wide. It's not really ready for a full release yet but I will give one lucky person an early bite of the cherry. All you have to do is name it for me, I'm just after something catchy, pleasing to the ear etc. I can only take a pic of a graft at the moment as the other cut I have is planted in a different location. Some info about the clone... it seems to be in some ways similar to the PC types but is substantially fatter and bluer. The original is a real fatty and very blue, a vivid powder blue that I really like. My pics were taken today in overcast conditions that has helped show off this trait nicely. The plant definitely has the funk by which I mean it occasionally gets some lovely mutated growth, more than PC ever gets and it looked really cool on the original plant. This one is actually grafted onto PC as a nice comparison. The owner did tell me his name but I think it may have been bruce (which is already taken), and I'm not sure I want to name it after the guy when I can't even remember his name for sure. As for the plant's 'spirit' I have no idea and do not wish this to be discussed, cheers. Anyway have some fun with it, If I can't decide then I might go for "Halcyon Blue" so you gotta beat that. I'll still pick a winner. Noobs welcome but you must have over 50 posts experience to get a piece of this baby, if not you will win a ripper pack of random succulents and dragonfruits instead. Enter as many times as you like :) and congrats on being such an awesome, kind, caring, open-minded, understanding, knowlegable, long-suffering, loving community that has shared in and helped me through many of the best and worst times of my life. I love you all!

just got back will start bottleling today forgot the lucky number hillbilly knows it so if he could shed light on the winner but i will get strted today .Cambodia was insane .I source my mollases from a place on the nsw qld border and my local produce store .sorry for late reply the rum is on its way

Panaeolus subbalteatus almost certainly. Cow manure is a slightly unusual substrate for this species, they prefer horse manure, but I don't think it could be any other species.

Thank you everybody! It seems that I am too new to like all of your posts. I will eventually. AZS, that is a gorgeous SSO2! I used to have a 4-ribbed bridge. It grew an extra rib. Here is a low quality pic of my pot o'juuls (jewels). A bridgesii and a pach are in the background. When I get my camera, I will post better quality images.

Hey, sorry for the late update, here is some picks of the flower and what it looked like about a week ago, ill put up a current photo tomorrow. Hope the pollen takes : )

b, Hello from Arizona and welcome! My SS02 decided to go 4 ribbed - thought you might like to see it! ...Show us some of your pics!

A stunning hybrid of 2 collectible Pachanois, a beautiful plant for sure, rare in horticulture. Reddish, short spines , good girth. These cuts are heavy and around 50-70 cm each. Will root fast and if well treated can flower in a couple of years. Euro 0.90 per cm, get more than one column and pay 0.70 + terrestrial shipping (15 euro 1 column + 10 eur additional columns) , be anywhere in Europe in 5 days after shipping. Send me a PM if interested. Cheers!

When I still lived in a warm climate I had really good success rolling the leaves into short tubes and planting that vertically in the soil. A friend used a similar approach but folded them accordion-style prior to planting. Either approach typically produces multiple offshoots.

Gidday Folk = the Phaemon'sDog here = realised I would be doubling up info messaging to individuals so might as well just post a general to all;- Yeah, here in forum we seem to have a grand tradition of "Paying Forward" presents. A forum member will pass stuff onto me and refuse any payment - insulted if I attempt to. In my turn I will pass stuff onto other members covering costs to honour my patron. And so the chain continues us being generous to the next person in line to thank our benefactor before us - pretty unique and bloody beautiful these days, I think. Hey - presently I'm in debt to Rahli Praise Rahli. In the case of magick there are very severe restrictions on what you should buy or can exchange for money. For example "tarot cards" must be stolen to energise correctly in the tradition of Thoth, Hermes, Mercury, as you will, who "stole the Knowledge of the Gods for Man". You can buy them yourself, but you can't use them, the cards must be "stolen" off you by the intended user. In this way "tarot cards" are never "owned", but "borrowed" and the more times "stolen" the more times empowered. It was funny in the 70's when bookshops realised "tarot cards" were not worth keeping in stock as no-one was going to "buy" them...Magick, like Shamanism, is an amoral religion - the general rules of morality don't apply as they transcend the boundaries of ordinary rules and Reality to a moral structure conformity of their own. Did not God Father Most High "steal" a rib from Adam First Man to create Eve First Woman in Genesis? Yet "stealing" is wrong, but the Divine Act made Woman the greatest possible Divine gift to Man - at that time Perfect, but perfectly lonely? What man can question the morality of the Divine now? Some magick items are "inherited" and the more times passed on in the coven the greater empowered. Things like the "white-hilted-knife" are greatest empowered by the witch making it themselves from "scratch" using virgin materials they have personally found, cultivated or produced themselves - I've known them to personally dig the ore mineral to refine the metal. Sometimes the money itself is the object. Giving a "beggar" five $2 gold coins with two silver 50 cent coins, of a particular mint date year, is the beginning of a powerful and most binding spell. Black brujera must appropriate or scavenge their items - the more rejected and hateful to the original owner who discarded them, the more potent - especially when passed through hands. Enough - being a Queenslander I'm always a bit suss on these Victorians - Google research says they send kids down coal mines, up chimneys, exploit the working class, ride to the capitalist board meetings in top hats on penny-farthings and use heaps of op and coke...So I use Auspost's Delivery Option 2 "Delivery on Payment by Receiver" which means you package it up and take it to your local holy Queensland Post Office to send to their nominated "Mexican" local Post Office - all you need is what is this local Victorian post office address. Thankfully you don't actually need their name or address because your Queensland Post Office will give you a tracking number - you just pm them with the numerological tracking number to trace delivery and they pay the postage when they pick it up at the receiving, not Queensland, Post Office. Works out $15 bucks for the service and then the postage - but they can 'pay it on forward' to the next forum person. Only Auspost get the "filthy money" and all the karma too - ha! ha! Mind you if any Victorians wanna send me in Queensland a few fresh peyote seeds surface mail I can send off packages completely postage paid.....hint...hint... Just digging up the items from Pat Uri's left luggage and besides the aforementioned I've been left with a load of Doreen Virtue "fluffy bunny" books, guides and cards too. Sozz - got to say if she was such a good psychic why was she divorced three times? Then there's some other stuff from Africa, Oceania, America and Australia that don't look so easy to describe...Plenty of stones, minerals and crystals that are easy to describe. OK - my heart is satisfied that is the general - hope who-this-may-concerns have read and I will pass on details to individ's. Any Brisbane bods want in? Just that bit easier -K. Cheers - Phaemon's Dog.

It's addictive hey blasty! I suggest you check out the for sale/trade section and see what's on offer. If you find nothing post in the wanted section. There are heaps of friendly souls on the forums I have found, I'm sure some one will be happy to oblige!

Fresh seeds have a pretty good germination rate without cold stratification. This is a year-old seedling , its so small due to the shallowness of the tray it was sown

gidday Twist. P'sDog with a couple of points - leaf stripping is to remove the "stalk" which is the midrib - if the leaf moulds it will always start at the butt of the "stalk". This is why it is tied into hands with the butts facing out of the bales - to inspect for the first sign of "house burn" mould. South American tobaccos N.tabacum var. brasiliensis and var. havanensis subspecies have the phenotype of an acute angle to the stem - as the leaf ripens it "droops" to more normal. All other subspecies have the leaf perpendicular to the stem and may "droop" about 10 degrees on ripening - but this is not to be used to "prove" ripening. The Native American most certainly did store great quantities of tobacco to age to use as trade items for years. Observers of the Tionontati commented on how they built studier "houses" for their tobacco to live in than they did for themselves. Traditionally tobacco was never used in the same year it was grown or even the next, very unlike the modern practise where they can't spray it with hormones, flue it, pulp it into RTS strips fast enough. Cheers pal! P'sDog.

depends on route of administration, usually cured by air or as mention in the rafter of houses. straight off the plant and into preparations for enema and tobacco pastes. or dried over a fire and ground into snuff. smoking preparations vary, mapacho would be rolled into logs and soaked in tobacco syrup and other ingredients until it goes deep black colour and has the right smell. if you want a good resource see this book: http://yalepress.yale.edu/book.asp?isbn=9780300057904

^ dunno mate ( not sure who has this the most northen - maybe bullit?)... I put it through last year in a large pot, with only a little attention. Come the end of season I can bandicoot a few tubers mate and you can try...lol gotta keep your eyes open if you want to see shit... Bulbine lily (Bulbine bulbosa)..... little tubers that can be eaten roasted

Nee How! DongKee Wang to bring your attention to a very useful paper on this subject:- http://www.academia.edu/10126755/A_Deep_History_of_Tobacco_in_Lowland_South_America ​ I trust you will find it as valuable as myself. Regards.

My Astrophytum coahuilense was perfectly normal when I bought it - then in 2011 it started to produce pups from the growing point - the pups had spines initially, which this species does not have. Today the pups now totally obscure the main stem.

T minus 4 weeks I am "fully rehabilitated" (lol...that sounds funny in my head ). I manged a bit of a jog today , lol...tried throwing a punch....yeah only one, yep can still only do girly throws I can lift a fair bit of weight now though, so garden therapy has been more intense. I think I may have actually got rid of smoking the deathsticks.....still "fckd" in the head though about the whole ordeal...lol 4 weeks eh....I'll be back to me old ways...lol...put some piccies up tomorrow.

On agar or in dirt it doesn't matter. Give them cold stratification then sterilise them. Use the freshest seed possible and be prepared to wait a long time, longer than your sterile agar might be able to cope with. If you are growing in vitro and it seems your quite knowledgeable, start with your plants in dirt then try and transfer them over. What I'm getting at is its tricky enough to sprout these let alone what your suggesting. I think it's important to know a plant in dirt before you take it to agar, if that was the case here you would've known how they react to different conditions and how long / intensive it can be to raise them. I had 2 from 10 germinate from eu seeds and they took months to come up.

My A. myriostigma - I have had this one for about 16 years.

Nee How! Many thanks for above: by reproducing Phaemon'sDog post it is forever frozen for him to edit out his terrible spelling and grammar. No excuse with spellcheck! Ha! This thread has been printed and hardcopy wrapped around Master Pat Uri's Iced VoVo biscuits in last week's food basket to his meditation cave in farC Q - that is not swearing - where he resides for now. It would be wrong to disturb his sequestration as he contemplates higher spiritual matters - and WiFi in mountain cave is pretty shit anyway. I, fake Doctor Zhong Ki Wang advise that tobacco curing information must not be used by readers in Australia which has world's strictest anti-tobacco laws profitable and plenty more foot to shoot itself through! Master Pat Uri, uses a more colourful expression past posts to describe 'this Government's oversized organs causing instability, resulting in criminal, even obscene, penetration'. His exact words are not medically comprehensible or anatomically possible to my limited English background, but may still be there in a previous post, moderators permitting. Allow me to update with legal changes since last time Master Pat Uri used this expression (that still all seem to protect commercial interest monopolies, tax collection and nothing to do with consumer health and wellbeing):- - Not even Master Pat Uri can say with confidence if nicotine is actually really legal, illegal, tolerated, unenforceable, etc. Great Rock of Canberra -and mossy it is too- says in "ink-on-paper" legislation that nicotine possession is illegal. Certainly police arrest people sucking on e-cigarettes of freebased nicotine - the most addictive form of the alkaloid. Yet children can buy much laden chewing gum and other confectionary off shelves of Multi-international Supermarket Chains as they can afford. Legally children can still smoke too, law only stops them buying tobacco. - Living tobacco plants and seeds are banned, but authorities can not be bothered to destroy feral. Property owners can't remove it for transport without authority and bale plate labels, cutting or poisoning the weed plants is illegal too. (see down) - ATO have finally "defined" two ancestor diploid and one polymorphic tetraploid spp. as the tobacco of commerce...so time travellers beware of bringing these into the present (Master Pat Uri has suggested maybe ATO "googled" for their research.) - Unlicensed possession - what licenses? - of manufactured tobacco or to manufacture tobacco is illegal. ATO defines "manufactured" when leaf is cut ("ragged", "shredded", "stripped", "shagged", "ribboned" in tobacconist speak) and so, by extension, cultivated, harvested, culled, mowed or ripped from the ground to destroy it. It is "manufactured" if any chemical substance is applied to the leaf (molasses, mu'assel, glycerol, sorbitol, honey, xylitol, liquorice, acetophenone, etc. in tobacconist speak) and by extension, sulphuric acid, glycophos, 2,4D, any other herbicide to destroy it. In theory, colour cured, unstripped leaf hanging is not manufactured and such exempt. Truly last years Master Pat Uri has flown between Australian states for FIFO jobs ("kidnapped") with kilogram "hands" of folded leaf ("ransom") in his luggage. When luggage scanned airport customs and security officers concluded "it was some sort of vegetable" and freely allowed passage. In tradition colour cure leaf is not much cut anyway - he and his Elder other tribes ("enemies") mates treat these like rare stamps or money notes - trading, swapping, admiring, stretching, folding, fingering them for their beauty, odour, rarity, colour and perfection, and valuing them in an exchange rate known to them - years can pass before such are ever consumed, and more fondled meantime the better. Seems this is one of few botanicals that withstands, improves, with such intimate human contact. Sacred fire wood ash may be added before ceremonial ingestion - Elders may be particular what ash, but potash is potash I think. Burnt shell ash too, but this can be severely caustic, you must learn air slaking, and it tastes crap. Snuff made from stalk (petiole, mid vein) should be exempt as ATO define leaf lamina only. - International travellers may only carry <50g of foreign tobacco (or 20 cigarettes, or 2 cigars) into Australia - much to amazement of all foreign and duty free tobacconists in the world who may not carry such tiny amounts for sale. Many visitors are harassed into abandoning their carry on as that is easier for Customs than explaining laws properly, honestly, accountably, transparently and in their language... Meanwhile illegal tobacco is smuggled into Australia by the 30t, 20' shipping container load (see below) - that is the real problem. - On ATO's behalf Customs and Border Protection withhold ANY amount of tobacco-containing-material ordered online for import into Australia until <$700/kg+gst+handling import duty is paid. This is regardless of packaging, or actual amount of nicotine or tobacco present, they weigh all whole parcel to calculate excise. American chewing tobacco might only be 30% tobacco but an $8 item will cost +$200 duty. Halal "washed" moassel for shisha averages ~5% tobacco and never exceeds 0.2% nicotine but a $12 item will attract +$150 duty. Visitor guests from Near East have been so harassed by entry officials they abandoned their few grams of 'dhoka' fearing violation of import law (they are naturally law abiding by virtue) - Australian Customs and Border Security never bothered to explain to them plainly they were quite within their rights to keep Arabic tobacco.) Delighting in his practised trading art, Master Pat Uri organises online oversea tobacco buys to be delivered in grams' intricately purchased, by:- suspended; part; FOP, FAC, COP, FAD, COD, COCC, FOT underwritten shipping terms; back; cancelled; and etc. orders, with onshore clearing terms, and then suspending, abandoning or waiting until last moment of demurrage, etc. to pay duty, in depreciated $AUD - and if Customs make one mistake, he instructs writ to sue with litigation. A time consuming, nightmarish, logistical, bureaucratic chaos for minimally paid Custom's young warehousing staff over a few dollars of tax revenue! ("Breath with me, come play my game, I'll test ya!" he sings.) This, while Master Pat Uri has himself a good, fat black belly laugh in a remotest Queensland property, tending his $multimillion mixed 'crops' and feeding excess imported cigars to his homicidal pet bulls for their tummy upsets from a 20' refrig container humidor stocked up over 40 years! (continued on, after side note.) [side note. NB - note well, dear readers - A very serious point to this, Master Pat Uri's "in house" jokes to this, his favoured plat-forum, aside:- presently Border Security seized-imposed-import-duty applies only to online tobacco, but Federal Politicians plot, as you read this, to impose +$17% on ALL your online oversea purchases regardless of if items not available in Australia: Feds pretence local market protection! Ha! All reminiscent of their Federal "Corrupt Rum Corps" status past, profiting from guarding their little Island Gaol, import control and fleecing both man and mutton. (Beware! Australia:- be very aware.) Perhaps Feds would have implemented it already except the $AUD is so weak the only drugs worth smuggling in are cigarettes! "Boston" Tea Party, anyone?] Side note ends. (Continued, from above.) Master Pat Uri builds a case proving Customs and Border Protection has not the infrastructure to deal with one man and his personal quantities of imported tobacco presently - how will they cope with an entire Nation's online import trading market? He hopes this will stall their money-grabbing plots and pursues it quietly, behind the scenes, "'Majority' of the One"- and regardless of how many tax free boxes of foreign cigars Feds offer him from their International Diplomatic Immune pouches to shut-up. Imposed tobacco Import Duty means every piece of local feral "sheep dip" tobacco rubbish from the compost heap is now worth ~$600/kg. So alcoholic, porn-crazed, sex worker hiring, gambling addicted, anti-drug bigot and all so legally sanctified registered voter "Greasy"Pete Phaemon - Clan Uri neighbour/unpaying tenant - has - in Master Pat Uri's words - "been busier than a three balled tomcat on Viagra!" lately. On a positive note now it affords his runaway, estranged 'dog' to get regular food and live in Brisbane city apartment house, from which I post. ["Damn straight! I do - folks! I even got 3 toilets now! - kicking it up large style loud with all da resident ready, party hearty Brissy bitches and dawgs non-stop banging- Yee!Ha!"...:- "P'sDog"] Mod Squad may confirm mirror ip. and remind P's Dog of enormous list of chores yet to perform in farC Q for Master Pat Uri. However, on Phaemon and his dog's behalf, many thanks ATO and Federal "Gubba Men" (dialect - I think - for "government") for this enriching law and their party donation cheque is in the mail. - Plain labelling of all 'commercial tobacco products' i.e. "smokes", is now mandatory - vendors may not promote or acknowledge their wares for advertisement - legally enforced under-the-counter trading, that strangely contradicts the first requirement of the law of contracts, i.e. open, public advertisement. (Master Pat Uri has claimed they're called 'tobacco products' because there is more genuine tobacco between his teeth than there is in a commercial cigarette.) This political stunt has been a God send to counterfeiters, who have no longer to replicate patented packaging, and leave no way that the end consumer can tell product is genuine. When consumer complained occasional plain packaged item tastes different, blander, than previous original genuine packet, authorities laughed in their faces to say:- that is the psychological effect of drab olive packet; the confronting images; lack of point of sale advertising; erosion of self esteem; social outcasting; impoverishment; etc. the product knowing, tax paying cigarette addict must now endure...While Government hope to collect >$20 for every packet sold presently. (I continue after pertinent side note that follows.) [side note:- Australian Feds made a great mutual backslapping and song-and-dance act over their brilliant idea to plain label, when they stole the idea lock, stock and barrel from Canada and knew it was coming anyway. International tobacco companies made a show of protest to compliment - it's an "Eton debate" game they have been playing for centuries having resources to do so - and reduce their liability, for what other product can you sell knowing it causes cancer in exactly the way it is meant to be used? yet, avoid compensating victims. For last fifty years annual tax revenue from tobacco sales is more than Federal Government spends on Education, Health, and anti-tobacco programs like Quit, combined. Over last twenty years as smoker numbers halved, but tax more than quadrupled to rebalance loss in revenue and shortfall. Governments, since James 1st, have long learnt how to collect the golden eggs of the golden tobacco, rather than kill the goose that lays them. At over $20 per unit, do you honestly think they really want to extinguish the habit? or allow TSNA carcinogen reduced smokeless alternatives, like snus, snuff, e- cigarettes, etc. from commercial sale?] Side note ends. (Continued from above) Only when lost revenue was realized Government admitted >12%, and growing, Australian 'smokes' are counterfeit and "chop-chop" is rarely ever local, but of /OBSCURED ON LEGAL ADVICE/ origin, 'criminal' (that is, not Government approved) syndicates bypassing, in house, manufacturer's brand specific "chemical" adding and therefore ATO. This is why "chop-chop" mostly appears as professionally flue cured, cut, blended, DNA exact, identical to oversea grown commercial feedstocks - so untraceable - yet lacks genuine burning characteristics and flavour, it is same but incompletely unmanufactured. Australian public persecution of legendary, non-existent local growers is "kill chicken, scare monkey" for media spread claptrap. No commercial tobacco production in Australia, for decades. Police prosecution of retailers the only mandate possessed in well orchestrated global, yet in house, conspiracy. Plus makes newspapers big headlines for next to "Dope Fiend beats Senior to Death for Codral" or "Miley Cyrus wears bikini! Pictures inside". Ooo! Ahh! Me buy, me read! Premium, quality real tobacco can barely be bought in Australia - nothing beyond mid-strength available. Long established, world renown, famous tobacconists refuse to comply with trivial law and repackage into ugly, substandard, plain packaging. They are too proud to supply their tobacco in anything less than traditional, world recognised, high quality formats of gold gilt banding, Spanish Cedar boxes, lithographed labels, pressed and water marked DOM auditor, inspection stamps, appreciating investment etc. reflecting the quality assurance of their luxurious offerings and distinguish from any pretender - and there are many. If they lose the tiny Australian market - so what? Their patented, time honoured labelling is not - in spite of Federal ignorant "peasant" thinking - a "cheap" sales gimmick. Nat Sherman asks if Australian Government would be proud for Treasury to use photocopies for $AUD banknotes:- after that's all they are worth, presently. (Au.Fed.Gov. politicians can reply to him personally about this comment, care of the American mafia - with full name and correct residential address, please, as he'll send personal representatives to sort out your concerns. Capeesh?) To buy real tobacco in Australia you must visit what few tobacconists still exist, on paltry profit margins and overworked repackaging for Government compliance, knowing exactly what you want - no browsing allowed. Expect to see a couple of plain clothed ATO detectives outside, "clocking" your face, purchase, license plates etc. and then racing into the shop behind you to make sure not so much as a cigar cutter was left in sight...as if you were buying Sudafed or something... (Master Pat Uri has a very funny, true story about travelling 800km to select some cigars on the very day of plain labelling. It is about a select cigar that was hidden from public display and a lovely nude Valley stripper that was not so hidden from public display:- we shall omit for now.) - Low TSNA and carcinogen removed smokeless tobaccos are still banned from commercial supply in Australia, in spite of medical evidence, but legends of oral cancer persist. Cancer has been attributed to use of dark, aged, firecured American moist snuff "chew" - a few cases - but all cases also smoked cigarettes and cigars. Poschl studies find snuff less carcinogenic than hardwood dust. Swedish snus must be freed of carcinogen before it is sold - there it is illegal to sell anything proven to cause cancer, cannabis is a notably not banned, only smoking tobacco. Other ongoing studies have shown snuff users have a lower incidence of contracting colds, rhinovirus infection and influenza - the studies are not concluded yet. Pity as snuff, snus and chew are closest to traditional use, by which American and Australian Aboriginal people have used it for millennia. These people have never been consulted on the matter or invited to discussion - the laws just been imposed on them. Master Pat Uri is actually one of the greatest advocates of anti-smoking and thinks seeing a so-called shaman smoking tailor made cigarettes habitually incredible and without taste. He shares, with other shaman curanderos, eg. camalongueros, notion that cancer is physical manifestation of a bad "astral" parasitic "elemental" "spirit" attached to human "aura" and preying, perverting or poisoning the personal "subtle energy field" by which DNA/RNA are activated and guided for cell repair and cell replacement, and how the immune system "updates" its recognition of damaged cells and pathogens in an ever changing environment. To blame it on one herb or another a gross over simplification. Esoteric ideas, to be sure. - We must conclude on something positive from present Australian situation and here it is:- Over taxed cigarettes means that a genuine real cigar is just as affordable and closer to tradition. Romeo et Juiletta (R&J) if you are a light smoker, White Owl if you are a nicotine head, Bolivar if your taste is somewhat jaded by cigarette use, do not have to be smoked. Place the butt in your cheek and let the nicotine permeate, allaying the need to smoke. When not in use, put it back, toe first, into the cigar tube it was supplied in. Eventually the soggy end will have to the bitten off. This morsel, mixed with a little bicarbonate of soda, or ash, to freebase will have the flavour return and you can continue to "chew". Really "chew" is a bite/squeeze and back into the cheek, you don't eat it. When absolutely flavourless, spit it somewhere to dry it out and keep it. Master Pat Uri has instruction on how to make such "washed" tobacco into shisha to sell to "Greasy"Pete. For meditation, you are going to light the remaining cigar for a few puffs of incense - I know you will. If you can't make a fire with fire sticks, use the sun's rays with a magnifying glass. Cigarette lighters aren't traditional - sacred fire is handmade. Extinguish cigar by putting it back in the tube and capping. Carbon monoxide will extinguish it, and until it does the remaining heat in the tube makes a fine moxa stick for stimulating acupuncture points. Now in tube ash from the head will mix with the soggy toe alleviating the need for freebasing further. Just take it out and continue in this way. The head will always stay capable of relighting. In this way, the cigar will last days, even a week. Keep the cigar tube as Master Pat Uri has instruction on how to make them into a handy, pocket herb vaporiser. Legal even in Australia. And so I end here and bow to you good forum people, may you pursue the Noble Path of wisdom with High blessings. Xian-Qi Wang - Ghost Doctor - for Master Pat Uri. ​
