A few grafted lophophora flowers from this morning The first 3 are williamsii that I grew myself, and the last one is a diffusa that I bought from an awesome member of this forum, and that is its very first flower. You know who you are

I give pretty much all my cacti miracle gro at different strengths depending on the species. My L. Williamsii get it at about 1 tenth to 1 fifth dilution, and my trichocereus get it at almost full strength about once every month or two, or whenever I think of it. And I alternate between that and thrive flower+fruit (14:2.6:21) at the same dilution rate. And I give them all some seasol occasionally aswell. They love it

Dox that is exactly what I have been doing but haven't noticed anything so far that definitly causes problems. My gp told me to try avoiding green vegetables and most types of fruit, especially stone fruit for some reason. I am waiting to see a doctor early next month who apparently knows alot about this sort of thing, so will just have to wait and see what happens. So until then it is just metrogyl and taking it easy for me. It sucks, but I don't really know what else to do until then. By the way, this has only been going on for me since I had my appendix removed just over a year ago. I was fine until then

Hey guys I am about to start taking a long term course of metrogyl. I know you can't drink alcohol while taking it, and was just wondering if anyone can tell me why that is? Does it put too much strain on your liver or something like that? Also is there anything else I should avoid taking while I am using metrogyl? Thanks in advance

Well played sir

I feel your pain jason001 and it sucks harder than katy perrys music

^ I already posted that video in post number 9 endorfinder. So there

DCHIW you finally remove about 30 loph seedlings from their humidity dome and come out to find a frog decided to push them all out of the soil so he could live in their pot? Also DCHIW rats decide to eat all the corn that was gonna win you the sab corn grow off? I have been screwed over by animals too many times in the last two weeks

Thanks for your input dox, and I hope you are ok. I have not had any bleeding, but have decided to not drink alcohol for a few months anyway while I am taking the metrogyl. I have already had a small section of my bowel removed and now they want to remove more, but I think I will keep that as a last resort

I was getting less than 25% success when I first started peres grafting without any pressure, and was very close to just giving up on it. Then I tried using cling wrap and a clothes peg and have had atleast 95% success since I started using it

I got a similar contraption in a cactus grafting kit that a friend got for me. I haven't used it yet, but think it would be handy for grafting columnar cacti that are too tall to graft my usual way with cling film. I will try and remember to take some pics tomorrow and post them here

Hell yeah that is good news. Can you please post a link to the legislation? Also does this mean that things like kratom and salvia are no longer illegal to import? Or is that just wishful thinking? Edited for spelling

Yeah mine were pretty close to my chicken coop, but I haven't had a problem with rats before. I saw one lastnight and I gotta say it was one of the fattest, healthiest looking rats I have ever seen. I guess all those good organic veges and chicken food are doing them the world of good. I hope your corn survives prioritise. I actually had to buy some corn to bait some rat traps with because there is none left in my garden. So sad

Looks like I am out of the competition. Fucking rats from my feral neighbours yard have destroyed my whole crop in a couple of nights. THIS MEANS WAR!!! All rats must die now

If you cant find any close to sydney and want to pay for postage I can probably send you a couple of rooted cuttings in the next couple of weeks

Thanks alot alice. The doctor has prescribed them to me to try and treat/prevent diverticulitis and associated colitis, just incase you were wondering. I would prefer to not take antibiotics if I can avoid it, but figured this has to be worth a try. Surely it is better than more damn surgery. And not drinking alcohol won't be a problem for me

That sucks man, thanks for the warning. I bet it was some sort of evil genius who did it

You should get some fruit if there is another cereus around to cross pollinate it. I am pretty sure they can't pollinate themselves

The big dildos are flower buds by the way

I am gonna send nail the snail a heap of seeds in the next week or so. But he lives in NZ so I can't send any seedlings unfortunately

All I can say is you guys are awesome. This is just one of the many reasons I love sab so much. Thanks so much for bidding everyone. it looks like phoenix son is the winner. Once again I really appreciate it guys and will make sure I throw in heaps of extra cool shit aswell

Ladies and gentlemen, I am putting this grafted piece of crest up for auction. It is a Trichocereus peruvianus 'rahuapampa' that an awesome member of this forum gave me a while ago. He grew it from seed so it a completely new and unique crest. If you win you will only be the 3rd person in the world (including me) who has these genetics. Don't act like your not excited, start bidding now. I will start the bidding at $25 and the auction will finish at 6pm on friday the 14th of this month Thanks

Yeah sorry burley man. Usually I would be up for a trade, but I need cash this time

Final bump. The winner will be the last person to bid before 6pm this evening. C'mon you tight arses

If you have no luck there is a big pond not far from my house full of lotus that I can probably get a few seeds from
