I second that salvia snuff Is surprisingly active, in every way. when still legal, pulverizing sally by hand and maybe mortar and pestil (cant remember) would once send me breaking thru although the material being pulverized, was halve a body lengh away from my nose... some authors wrote, "it's amazing how those Indians found out about the properties of this plant", that's bs copied from other bs authors, just moving through a salvia thicket, one would notice what this plant can do. or as another example what dried up fallen mitragyna leaves will do for you if you run the lawn mover over them. makes me think one recipe could utilize this plant, as snuff...

iboga & other free seeds!
withdrawl clinic replied to withdrawl clinic's topic in Seed & Plant Swaps
update! the iboga seeds are all, allocated now, and I will send those 3 lot's out once they are fully ripe, which will be very soon. psychotria seeds are still left, lot's of the common strain (forgot the name) and very few of a strain called moon. rifat still available, I've been told those seeds can produce red veined leaves, but don't know if it's true. heima salicifolia seeds, nobody wanted, hehehe. I will delete all messages after we are done, and expect the same from all the other participants, cheers. -
iboga & other free seeds!

I have gone through the messages, and there is still one spot left. you have to have the right tools and climate. -
let's hope I manage the upload (i'm not a good pc clicker). I went to one of my magic places yesterday (Hanrahan) and could not find any crocodylus johnstonii tracks, as I spotted them before. but I spotted, what me thinks, is one of the native Tabaco. maybe somebody can help to id, thx. dam, I jinxed myself, says failure to upload... my pic has 5.7mb, do I have to reduce the size? thought improofed software no need to do this. pls help, if you can. ok, I can upload to chill gallery, so I will try to upload to native plants gallery, sorry for the mess (said with Hahn solos voice).

help id native nicotiana?!
withdrawl clinic replied to withdrawl clinic's topic in Australian Native Plants
I think you are right, as the excelsior seems to be only endemic to the heart of oz. for me excelsior and megalosiphon look alike... but than according to location charts regarding the freshie, it ought not to be at that location either, but it is! btw, wiki said the crocodylus johnstonii, specimen was not described for 100 years. the native police constable which produced the specimen, still gets coned by the sources as the call it crocdylus johnsoni, they still try to get aboriginal people the wrong side of the spoon..., make me sad. and most freshwater crocodile sites spell even the false name wrong, in latin there is no single I, at an ending, it's always ii!!!!!!! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Freshwater_crocodile sorry for the side track, but I mentioned the crocs at the opening post. -

ok, I waited till now to reply to your pm's, to give late comers an equal chance. I got 6 fruits, but some of them are small. I decided to split them into more lots, meaning 3 or even 4 lots, so that more people can have a go. -
I second everything glaukus said, but even if you loose the crest with one cutting, an other cutting will maybe even look better than the mother plant! when my crest, went "normal" again, they produced a single column at the base and than, branched into three columns. in short something which looks very cool as well. as well you can pm me for some crested material, I want to reduce my collection.

help id native nicotiana?!
withdrawl clinic replied to withdrawl clinic's topic in Australian Native Plants
member teamwhy has id'd the plant at the gallery as Nicotiana excelsior! haven't had time to find out it's properties or if it's native. Hanrahan is in qld, and the river you see is the Fitzroy, which runs through Rockhampton. hd, I managed to upload without resizing to the gallery, will do as you suggest, if I have to upload pics in my posts! -
I haven't read the link sagi gave sorry, but I say, a plant I cared for ( the most common strain) was moved to an excellent climate (and country), set seed there, and the seeds germinated, without any fancy input!! this location I think closly resembles sallies home turf, hope that helps. what sieberts claimed is incorrect...

Hanrahan, probably will be destroyed sooner or later by a stupid planed dam. I understand we need more water storage in oz, but I would build a new method of dam, which will have less impact on nature, and even will eliminate evaporation. even the barrage at rocky destroyed the Fitzroy already, very sad indeed.

when I moved 15 years ago, to the town where I live, I encountered a massive wax flower plant localy. as well the place I purchased, had a large native wax flower growing, it displayed 50 flowers or more! but the place wasn't cared for, fore many years, and one time, whilst cutting the very large grasses down, I killed the plant by accident. over 10 years or more, I tried to find that plant again, but had no success. all I got was, scratches over my legs, and enormous pain from the spear grass, hehe.... a week ago, guided by the lil voice in my head, I found another specimen! further searches in that area, gave no results, just more of the pain, as mentioned above, and I could not score any sock protectors anywhere. this plant alone will give me plenty of work to do, and I plan to help this, plant... it's one of australias nicest flowers. sorry, for the spelling, i'm mildly dyslexic.

hoya australis rediscovered localy
withdrawl clinic replied to withdrawl clinic's topic in Australian Native Plants
cheers, hd, once they are big enough they will be planted out in the garden and in the wild. in my pipedreams, I might even collect seeds one time. the plant mentioned in my garden, definitely was taken from the wild, I guess. -
i like the word organic as well, and for example rather use an "organic" approach, than "harsh chemicals". but, my above written sentence makes me, a hypocrite, hehe. to clear this up, from my viewpoint, I prefer urine, to nitrogen produced, by chemical means. but unfortunately a farmer, doesn't produce enough urine with his family, to nurture hie/her crops! saying this reminds me of many threads here @ sab that have, had a similar focus as the topic starter. please, lovly people, try to use the search engine, because there is a wealth of info regarding this topic already here @ sab!! don't get me wrong and think we don't want people to start new thread about an old topic, we love new threads! some people much smarter than us, have plans to save all our urine, via new pluming features, so maybe, at one time farmers can use "organic fertilizers". I might add that, even the most expensive ferts, are not complete, but animal manures and urine, do the job. for example phosporous, the first element discovered, by humans, and how? by extracting urine!!!! than stupid, and greedy people discovered how to get it by mining, and this methode is not carbon friendly. I support the view, that maybe there is a difference, say if you synthicize ephedrine, or get it from nature, but we haven't discovered yet, what it could be, my guess is, it could be going towards string theory.
