here is my humble pumpkin. A long way to go, but coming on nicely

What plant?

it was 7 years ago i went. it was before the road was built to jomsom. but i think the walking track stays off the road and is still really nice. I think it get busy at some times of the year. It really easy to get around, I think i got a bus form Kathmandu to chitwan. you don't get hassled much compared to India.

i didn't meet any one that use ephedra gerardiana as medicine. but i did find some that had been munched on by goats. and i think the local use it for fuel also. i got around by bus mostly, i did take a flight from pokhara to jomson and walked back. pretty easy trek. (i'm not that hardcore) i also got to try yarchagumba in Kathmandu. and this was just growing on the side on a mustard field

I went a few years ago now. The mountains are cool but I also loved it on the terai. Chitwan national park was a highlight for me. here is some pictures of some ephedra near marpha.

i would be surprised if you get anything off that! but yeah you could get lucky

First real flower today! I've been waiting so long! Put them in in April, I like to put them early because the cold make them stand up straight and not fall all over the place.

here is a couple of pictures from my patch. at the moment we can pick about a 1 kg a day!

I think rosifolius. really common in regen areas. we get heaps at mine. so far this year we have made jam, cordial, vinegar and eaten a bucket load!

Would some one be able to id this for me. they are growing in my garden on a pecan log. it's in the hills of the subtopics I'm a mushroom noob so have no idea... they smell nice and can i eat them? thanks for your help

I forgot to tell you i'm in this.. I started late , I'm Cucurbitly challenged, my girl friend thinks i only want to grow a giant pumpkin because i have a little man complex and i also no good at smack talk. but i still think i can grow a big one! this is my Atlantic Giant

Seeds arrived today... thanks your the best Shamanistic

I think you need to watch this film before you go to a mission next http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TwuJbJaCLtc&feature=youtu.be you might not be so judgmental if you have a understanding of why remote communities are the way they are. A necessary and beautiful film, Kanyini looks at the world's oldest living culture in a way that's never been seen before. A listed traditional owner of Uluru, former Indigenous Person of the Year, Bob Randall acts as our guide to "Kanyini" which he describes as the principle of connectedness through caring and responsibility that informs all aspects of Aboriginal life. Bob poingnantly explains why his people are now struggling in a modern world and what needs to be done for them to move forward. As Bob explains, "The Earth is our Mother. That makes you and me brother and sister".

Great ending. I loved the whole lot, I only started watching it about 2 months ago. I think binge watching made me love this show heaps more then if i was along for the ride for the whole 5 years. I did love it but I am glad it over really, it gave me a bit of anxiety worrying about whats going to happen in the next episode.

Walt is asshole and i hope he dies and it 's all for nothing. saying that, I don't know how it can all get wrapped up in just 1 more episode.... the only ways is if everyone dies

Cool school.

I would love this plant.... we did get seeds from kiwiboancaya a couple years ago and it also turned out to be Alicia anisopetala

It is the best beer in the world! i have this book sacred and herbal beers and was inspired from that. but the one i bottled was pretty basic. just a ginger beer kit with added coca and damiana. i am making at the moment sassafras, damiana, ginger, Muira Puama, coca, chocolate and vanilla beer.... not sure if it really a beer.

While i was bottling my damiana coca ginger beer (I drink it straight out the keg) my girlfriend went and picked some wild raspberrys and whipped up a few pots of jam! best weekend!

I know it awesome to get them wild harvested or from someones collection, but you can buy seeds on ebay and they ship to the states. I'm going to buy a pack because i only have L. petersonii which I love! smells so good and make a nice cup of tea.
