    How would the harvest of root bark for example Acacia Confusa ever be ethical...

    if it helps you, to tell a good story,

    which in the long run, totally supports, "ethical harvest". :wub:

    but even more so protection, of said genetics-healing plant.

     

    wc tip: 2nd latin name always small capital

    "Acacia confusa"

  2. maybe Socrates wrote a book, dedicated to humor...

     

    my lives best times are connected to fun & jokes.

    like, when I was young, and on the tour bus, when we would do, some role playing.

    at times, even members who never told a joke, told a joke, because we were "upbeat"

     

    I hope you can read the formula, I call it the slam dunk.

    you build up a joke on false precedences, than seemingly give in to main stream morals, but bang catch line.

    in short, I can c math in comedy!

     

    wify, you never seem to do any act of kindness towards me anymore.

    hub, I don't know what you are on about, I LEFT "YOU", something on the pillow, last night,

    JUST LIKE THEY DO AT LUXORY HOTELS!!!

    wify, it was a note saying:

    on suite toilet blocked, u moron.

    hub, I can never get it right.

     

     

  3. I also like this plant,

    and know of stands, 

    2h, or more, drive away from my home.

     

    I have collected, seed's, from other occurences (an other 90 min),

    and they germinated well (posted pics here on sab).

     

    they love to grow close to, 

    never evaporating lil creeks...

    Hi all,

    What are your views on using chemicals on psychedelic plants or plants intended for consumption?

    When i say chemicals i mean like using Hydrogen Peroxide to promote healthy root growth and stop root rot or Rooting hormone for cuttings.

     

    Cheers

    Irpini

    priority should be with the, grower and not the plants, because they are tough, and humans aren't.

    make sure you hardly breath in, the "powdered rooting hormones"...or peroxide fumes.

    Always been interested in Pituri. Has anyone here actually tried it using the traditional method?

    yes, a few of us.

    a lot of info, regarding this on this site!

    sab's emblem is/was a

    pituri flower.

  6. I bump u!

     

    narrow leaved cuttings, pretty much don't excist.

    if you grow a nl by seed or sucker, you will be able to take cuttings (so yes cuttings can be done),

    but once the nl stopps, forming leaves in a spiral action, cuttings taken from later growth are close to impossible to strike.

     

    edit: and if you use seeds, it will not be true to type, but some seeds will be.

  7. I go with above's replies.

    set up cost's can be kept minimal, and installation is easy, and replacing a burned out fluro is easy.

    cool whites and warm whites are ok if used mixed, I think the ratio could be 2 cool whites and 1 warm white...

    but those expensive fluros, trying to imitate day light are, what is best.

    i'm using fluros since 40 years...

    buy them from your local whole saler, not the pet shop.

     

    fluros as well just provide the right amount of heat, which can be used for striking difficult cuttings,

    and seed germination, or even over winter, protecting, tropical plants.

  8. it's as well a question, of us all, and how we mature.

    when we are young, it's hard to control greed, but many people, in a variety of fields, mature from poacher to guardian.

     

    those very same people, that might have chopped a wild specimen, are the very same that, have the knowledge, of how to help the situation.

     

    at times I fossick as hobby, now that I am getting older, I am very happy to leave some crystals behind, for somebody else, instead of picking everything up.

    back on track, a let's say crested loph, might need removal from the wild, in order to do the ethical thing.

    I wonder though, if plants, could as well get depressed when, removed from the wild, and kept like zoo specimens.

    would hoodia gordonii grow better & survive in tas or vic?

    @my location, I could never keep hoodia super happy.

    I got seeds which I think have a high chance of germination.

     

    so idea is, to support the sab member located at the right climat, and with good skill levels.

    in other words, I gave up, growing hoodia, and give my seeds for free to,

    a person who might can provide survival and future seed set (grafting skills an advantage use stapelia as root stock).

     

    reply 2 thread or pm me, or both. :)

  10. hi, aj!

     

    I managed to germinate one single seedling out of many seeds stored.

    sorry for the boost, but my own strain of seeds won, because they were stored extreemly (copy artic seed vault) well!

     

    sceletium tortuosum  = tricky to set seed

    sceletium emarcidium = easy to set seed

     

    you have spoil this plant to set seed! :)

     

  11. hi!

    in my small town, we got a lot of birds.

    at times, I talk on the phone, and people remark, to you have an aviary?

    so I say:

     

    birds are direct ancestors of dinosaurs, many of them can fight.

    there brain is, small but contain a very good cpu!

    a small bird can take, a smaller 180 bend, and it saves it's life.

     

    once, I saw a fairy wren doing he's court ship dance! :)

    he was dancing his butt off,

    jumping and hopping,

    displaying his feathers, in an MTV, style of way.

    the small bird had cleaned a small area for his performance,

    some was bare rock (gabbro) some cleared red soil.

    the male was dancing, and three female suitors appeared,

    out of nowhere.

    lil wren, had chosen his stage well,

    the girls, watched him dance from the savety,

    of some low hanging branches of a,

    brachichiton acerfolius.

     

    me thinks he was lucky,

    flying of with a female suitor.

  12. you know, worms make as well, very good bait,

    like this you got, feed for fishes and,

    you might have, transferred the (our!:() waste,

    into a very stable media.

     

    don't put save kitchen scraps into the bin, it illegal.

    compost it instead! :wub:

    worm castings can keep moisture for a long time, but if this media dries out, it's equally hard to re wet, hahaha.

    birds like to hunt, my manure worms, my place is popular with birds.

    producing at lot of compost as well attracts a lot of benefical insects and other plant & soil helpers.:worship:

  13. worm farming workx!

     

    unless you are super rich, try to always use existing

    materials. in this case flower pots, stacked on top of each other.

    after a few months, one can use the contents of the bottom container...

    without having to pick worms, all the worms moved to the rich picking above!

     

    I feed cow manure, as I can collect it.

     

    note the eggs in the 1st pic.

     

    I used fresh casting of the worm farm on waterchest nuts for example elocharis dulcis, and the water stayed pristine., from day one onwards.

    I have fed old blue jeans to the worms and they ate it within 14 days!
