Menstruation as fertilizer.
Pinion replied to Dreamwalker.'s topic in Sustainable Technologies & Ethical Living
I'd consider processing (eg. composting, drying, etc.) the blood first, to reduce the risk of microbial contamination and blood-borne pathogens...especially if you're putting on your veggies. Hepatitis ain't cool. -
His background (poverty, over a decade of incarceration) is certainly a contrast to the typical privileged conservative politicians that we usually see (especially in Aus). This is a man who can actually empathise with and understand the needs of his people. Kudos, Jose.

Someone had to.

The older I get, the faster the days pass. I don't like it.

Interesting bestiality scenario right there. She fucking loves it, clearly

Great show. Even people who don't necessarily enjoy the story can still appreciate the talented actors and the amazing character development throughout the series. I really hope they don't kill or imprison Jessie (he's my favourite).

You could place the seed tray in a dish of water (enough water to allow the soil to remain moist), and/or use soil/growing medium that will retain more moisture (coir, vermiculite, etc.) Also, your average seed tray with small cells dries out too quickly, so something a little bit bigger is better. And as thed00d has said, humidity domes are a good idea.

Fertilizer for Acacia maidenii?
Pinion replied to kapitän kamasutra's topic in Australian Native Plants
Charlie Carp half-strength is tolerable for natives, though personally I very, very rarely fertilise mine. However, 'Trees for Life' advises growers to add a granular, controlled-release fertiliser to the potting soil. -
Coffee seems to be okay, even in cooler climates (albeit, the growth rate is fairly slow). I was quite surprised to see a beautiful C. arabica in the Sydney Botanic Gardens, out in the open.

Just cannot understand why people will do things like that. If karma exists, may it fuck them over (and as Xenodimensional said, this should be done with a cactus up the butt).

You can't dismiss the economic potential of cannabis, especially when (in the US at least) the legal situation is beginning to change. It will be very interesting to see how this progresses.

5w6. Bit of a change from the ol' Myers-Briggs.

Based on this credible website, Victoria amended its drug laws in 2011. Since then it has been illegal to sell and display bongs, but no mention of possession has been made. Here's a quote from this document. "All of the states in Australia prohibit, in various ways, water pipes and ice pipes used for the consumption of prohibited drugs: with the exception of Victoria which currently only prohibits ice pipes. Some restrictions are imposed on the sale and display of hookahs and similar devices, but the majority of states make a distinction between these devices and bongs."

I'm thinking the same thing (Dodonaea). They seem to be used quite frequently in hedging as well. An interesting plant with a history of use in construction and natural medicine.

Did anyone see the Reddit thread about this topic when it was open? At one stage, it seemed as if people on Twitter and some media sites were treating mere speculation (that began on Reddit) as the truth. It was sad to see the missing Boston boy being blamed for the attacks (along with a person who might not even exist) with little evidence. His personal photos and photos of family members were posted for all to see, his family was abused and supposedly had to shut down the Facebook page they had made for him...interesting example of the 'lynch mob' mentality in the digital age. Of course, it didn't help that the FBI didn't supply the public with clear photographs of the suspects, or even release the footage that allegedly shows the two men placing the backpacks on the ground.

Plans fell through, I'm going next year. Just realised it's Wilfred and what appears to be Fat Freddy's Cat sitting in the kombi!

Oh wow, that's so beautiful! Thanks for sharing, and you've obviously cared for the plant extremely well.

You'd think that emphasis would be placed on words that are actually relevant, or at least in common use. Having said that, I remember my 4th grade teacher trying to get his class of 9/10 year olds to spell the word, 'antidisestablishmentarianism'

Ah, nice discovery (especially handy for large-scale gardening!), and it's great to know the pH of that particular product.

Life in Queensland: enjoyable one day, illegal the next
Pinion replied to shortly's topic in News & Notices
An improvement upon QLD's existing analogue laws? -
Aw, thanks Mushroomman I think I got too excited and jumped in too soon. Oh well, live and learn. Thanks for the kind words and generosity. Much appreciated!

I attempted to graft a loph to pereskiopsis (first time I've ever tried grafting). I only have 12 loph seedlings to experiment with (only 24% germinated) and I lost two in the process (I knocked the first scion off and mushed the second just trying to cut it). If this graft fails, I will cry.

Damnit, why am I not in Sydney?! Great news, though and great value. Thanks for posting this!
