thunder, I'm sorry to say your tunera diffusa in post #660 is not a diffusa, the leaves are, far, far to big, for damiana.
Indeed. I likes. :-)

I don't have the space for corn... maybe I could try a guerrilla grow?

Thanks dude. TBM arrived safely

You could try growing in pots in a shaded greenhouse to protect from the wind and Sun.

C_T, Waklert is armodafinil. Anyone successfully ordered from 'waklert now'? Supposedly shipped from Brisbane.

They wouldn't be committing to get advice from the commission if they weren't serious. This can be treated as a promise to legalise cannabis in one form or another.*seek advice* - so he'll just "launch an inquiry" and then nothing will happen
fuck politicians

Don't forget Ruderalis

Just like like in the ACT and the NT. Norfolk island can have it's own government until they disagree with Commonwealth (at which point democracy goes out the window).

I was quite casual about it....we were sitting in a car at a truck stop 8 years ago. Make it special or you will be reminded about your lack of effort.

Where can I get me some butt-hash?

Too good zed.
This community has given me so much. I'm anticipating that I will accumulate a small surplus of seeds over the summer. I will be giving these seeds away (how can I not when I've received so much seeds and information from others on this forum).

Awesomeness

If you're after Orientalis there's someone in WA selling seeds on eBay quite cheap. They've been up for months and months so I doubt they're the freshest, but there you go.

I've enjoyed your posts here and on other forums. Sorry to hear about your ill health.

Its probably pot luck...but of hand ..do you know the brand names?
Nope. Mine doesn't say who made it :-/

I think it's scientifically interesting but I don't know if it has any other uses (I highly doubt any living person would).

Putting my hand up for Brugmansia seed... would really hit the spot!

I think we all see a crude approximation of reality. Humans can only perceive a very narrow range of the electromagnetic spectrum and don't have enough brain capacity to properly process and understand the things we can perceive.

King's Holly, otherwise known as Lomatia tasmanica, is believed to be at least 43,000 years old.
Only one cluster of the ancient plant remains in a secret southern Tasmanian location, surrounded by deadly root rot.
Tasmanian explorer, Denny King, discovered the plant in 1937.
It's believed there are fewer than 500 plants in the small secret location.
Greg Jordan, from the University of Tasmania, said King's Holly is probably the oldest living plant in the world.
"Definitely to date it's probably the best candidate for the oldest plant in the world," he said.
An intensive breeding program at Tasmania's Royal Botanical Gardens started in 2004.
The aim was to set up an insurance population of 50 plants in pots, but to date fewer than half have taken.
Mr Jordan said establishing an insurance population was a challenge.
"The King's Holly doesn't do sex," he said.
"That's because it has three sets of chromosomes instead of two."
The plant bears pink flowers but produces neither fruit nor seeds.
It only reproduces vegetatively, meaning a new plant only grows when a branch falls and develops its own roots establishing a separate, but genetically identical, plant.
Natalie Tapson, from Tasmania's Royal Botanical Gardens, has been working with King's Holly for around two decades.
In that time several different techniques of growing the plant have been tried, but all have had their setbacks.
Ms Tapson said that while cuttings generally took root, they were difficult to transfer to larger pots.
"One of the issues is you get this blackening off, so whenever you cut a stem it blackens and it dies, so it's very very touchy," she said.
Ms Tapson now believes grafting King's Holly onto another plant could be the solution.
"By putting it on to a root stock, it's hoped that when you plant it out, or transfer it, you're not going to have that loss because the root stock is stronger," she said.
As well as root rot, scientists fear a fire could wipe the cluster out.
However, it's also feared a lack of fire could allow other plants to grow over the top of it.

The "just say no [to synthetic cannabis]" statement only makes sense if it's followed by "smoke the real thing instead".

Nimbin shop owners raided today. Sep 11, 2014

Many locals in Nimbin may be flouting the law, but I'd like to think that the police are on the wrong-side of history by enforcing prohibition.
