Or you could do the island type fix where you can put the pot on a brick in a saucer or something to hold water in. Another thing I use is a poison granule product and water it through.

I'm not wanting to cause an argument, although i wanted to point out that the average minimum temps in Winter 2004 were 9.5 degrees and have risen since then. But trust me, northern coastal Sydney isn't getting too cold in winter, rather scary if you ask me.

Hmm, it doesnt usually get below 10 degrees in Sydney.. I guess keeping it inside it'll not get below that for sure. Might try my luck! edit: I take that back.. In my area in Sydney I meant.

Very, very nice!

Its a WhiteCurlGrub I bet. Often confused with the witchetty grub. You can get rid of them easily but they will damage your plants root system as this is what they feed off. Birds love them when they can find em! I've had my B.Caapi plant infested with them before - you may even notice these mud/bark base cocoons out of which they have hatched. To rid them, I just use this granule poison sand stuff (kills most pests) which you shake out across your pots and water through thoroughly. Within the next few hours you'll have noticed some come up to the top to escape, but they'll be cactus. KlUe for some reason i get errors if u post it if its not together (whitecurlgrub)

Erowid lists the SAB shop as the primary resource for this plant ;-) Rekon this'll grow okay on a windowsill over the colder months in Sydney?

Nice photography mate, my Canon S2IS has a super macro mode that takes pics from 1cm to 10cm at perfect focus - is this what you were using?

Ok another update 5 days after birthing noticed first pins. A day later there is large clumps of fungi forming. Growth is going quite well so far, will keep the pics coming. Also put some verm on top of one of the cakes that haven't had pins forming on the top yet to see if it can yield better. Peace KlUe

I wish it were good news for countries like Australia but i'm doubtful this announcement would even make a tiny dent on our governments political stance on drugs. Fkn government, they'll never understand......

Tear a ticket off for me mate! Cheers

Same thing happened with mine in Sydney, Alice... She grows 5cm+ per day on numerous stems/vines!

Wow, looking cool dude.. No idea what they are..

Man I love your A.colubrina - Mine has started losing its leaves - No idea why!

I didn't mention one joint, but it was a few times, and he developed a severe case of schizophrenia. To the degree that at one point he was preparing to jump off a cliff because he believed he could fly. Another time he was running around his house naked and had covered his body in green paint. It is so sad to see someone so nice as this guy to have this happen to. There has been mental illness in his family so I believe that explains his onset, however as I mentioned before, it was only a few times that caused it.

The big time spam servers can end up being shutdown and the owner(s) getting busted.. In some cases, it is a serious crime. I've read numerous news articles on spammers being fined huge amounts and even jail terms. Though I doubt spammers on here would be classified as illegal as it is manually posted.

Where did you find this from? A close friend went seriously schizophrenic and almost killed himself numerous times after having tried weed a few times. He is on medication for the rest of his life.

somehow double posted

I fully support legalization, but my one problem is the lack of information told to school students in drug education. In order for legalization to work, it HAS to come from a non anti-drug perspective. In not all circumstances is this drug "harmless". One reason people have problems with weed and even worse - schizophrenia - (and it happened to someone very close to me) is that there isn't the awareness and education that there damn well should be. The drug education courses at school tell you only one main thing - and that is drugs are bad. Whats the point if they know kids are gonna try them anyway? Its known logic - if you tell kids don't do it, they WILL! KlUe edit; typos

Interesting indeed!

It'll grow mate, but flowering may be a different story. Though I've heard people getting the odd seed pods in non tropical areas but as far as i'm aware its pretty rare. I'm in Sydney and i've only had a cutting for a few weeks, but its growing well, although i'm not expecting flowers..

Ok well unfortunately the rot ate through the WHOLE loph, i had to cut it off Was definitely orange rot, nasty stuff! Does anyone know if this can spread through to the host cacti? I've cut the whole top about 1cm down from rot so it hopefully callouses fine. Anyways, at least some good news out of this - the T.Pachanoi has given me a new pup formation. Cheers to that KlUe

Hi all, After my loph was grafted on a Trich i've noticed it getting alot plumper over the past couple of weeks.. Anyway this morning I went to have a look and on its side is a big patch of what looks like to be rot? Has anyone any suggestions? I've kept it dry for a few days already so the soil isn't that wet. Please help! KlUe

yea, looks morning glory to me.

Good pics man, to be honest they look a little similar - although as you said its not directly traveling to the areole, fingers crossed that its a root!

Hi all, I got a pach cutting from SAB couple weeks ago - and I cut a few cm off the top as a precaution because it did look a little dirty from the cut. Anyways, it has calloused nicely, but I noticed some strange growth inside the cacti after the cut - does anyone have any experience with something like this? (Pic attached). Bug, parasite, infection.....? Cheers in advance! KlUe
