personally I liked it I can only speak for myself but he hit some home truths

yeah it kinda looks like a menace this gone from the fence to council bottle brushes

Hi guys, Does anyone have an idea what this might be? it just climbing fence line around the corner from me? The leaves might give a better clue

http://www.ijirr.com/sites/default/files/issues-files/0370.pdf Have a read of this pretty interesting

Cheers @Dicko looks like it is treated as a weed but it does have some interesting features The entire plant is used for treating external infections[ Fibres from the stems absorb moisture. This absorbent-cum-medicinal effect is used for treating eye-troubles: the whole plant is firmly tied in a bundle, immersed in water, boiled and then withdrawn and while still hot used as a sponge to wash the eyes[ The crushed leaves are taken in a draught to treat for body-rashes, especially if accompanied by fever[ The seeds are used as a strong purgative[ Steroids and terpenes have been recorded in the whole plant, without other active principles[ Considerable antibiotic action has been found in the plant, but its presence is not consistent[ The seeds contain a yellow glycosidic compound resembling muricatin A, and perhaps other substances. The glycosidic compound is probably responsible for the seeds purgative action Known Hazards Some caution should be employed when using this plant for food, since some reports say that it contains hydrogen cyanide In small quantities, hydrogen cyanide has been shown to stimulate respiration and improve digestion, it is also claimed to be of benefit in the treatment of cancer. In excess, however, it can cause respiratory failure and even death.

Either way you look at it I think its still a good show to watch, you don't see any other production companies doing anything like this (if you know of any others let me know )

I would be interested in reishi that pretty good for you isnt it ?

Hi crew, New to cactus growing, can someone please point me in the right direction to fix these white spots and i found a little big which looks like it was sucking/eating. My first though would be to use white oil.

@migraineur Would be able to point me in the right direction for aussie?

Is anyone have a stake in a cloud mine? Is it better just to buy the crypto currency?

I knew I could rely on you legends, cheers

lol sorry didnt see the date hahahaha

Ok cheers for the heads up on the white oil, but as for position they are in full sun sitting on a rock wall in the middle of the garden with well drained soil and they certainly get good airflow I think
