  1. yeah its marketed as Hawaiian sweet potato. white skin purple flesh its in the ones near me. Or try the markets the venders always have them of late. I've got a few plants in pots I was using for slips you can have its vigours, long vining.
  2. Triple boost 10 10 10 has made mine pup like mad I think the key is a balance nute for pupping and most probably the specific genetics of the cultivar. URL=http://s111.photobucket.com/user/stillmanz/media/Cacti/DSCF2534_zps435ab55b.jpg.html][/url] .

    Propagating sweet potato from vine cuts...

    depending on the cultivar the leaves can be used like baby spinach in salads or steamed. I have a really awesome cultivar with soft salad green leaves that produces small yellow/white tubers that or steam well. You can have a some cuttings if you like?

    I really don't know, we were going to blow it up. But I think I might try and turn it into soup for a shelter? Just depends if it tastes OK I guess.
  11. I know a few of you guys and girls make a bit of electronic music. I am interested in learning how. I have no idea whatsoever so just asking some beginners questions like whats a good program to start with,are there any free ones that can get me started or should I buy one. I have a basic lap and am a bit computer spazzy so super high powered programs probably won't be good for me. and I don't want to spend a fortune but happy to spend a bit. I'm only interested in having a bit of fun with it so yeah like I said I got no idea and any advice would be much appreciated. I want to do some stuff like Kraftwerks kinda dated 80s sounding stuff.

    Photo does not do this justice. Its got really big really quick. I have to prop up the cover because it was rubbing and scratching the top of the pumpkin. I reckon about 40kg plus at the moment at a guess.

    She thinks its awesome, I got her to hand pollinate the flowers and so she feels quite happy with her work. Races down in the morning and then after school comes back and tells me how big its got. You can actually see it grow over a day.
