    don't cha hate it when..

    It's Sunday night! No need to get up early tomorrow! Perseid meteor shower!! Cloudless skies! ...backburning.
  3. So i built this stand/rack/shelves thing with some excess wood I had. I dreamed up the design in my head and just went to work with the saw and drill. Each corner post points 90 degrees to the last - which seemed like a really cool idea at the time. I wondered why I'd never seen anything like it until... (upon completion) I discovered it can never be flush with the wall - or fit neatly in a corner. Doh.

    Meet up: Sydney, Central Coast, Newcastle

    Saturday works for me. I haven't much to trade but could probably dig up (literally) some Sida, a few cactus seedlings, and maybe a cutting or two. If it's a nice day we could picnic in the gardens... i'd be keen to pay it another visit at the very least.

    Mushroom Books

    Depends on your angle, but I could recommend: The Mushroom Cultivator (Stamets & Chilton) - growers bible, must have. Mushrooms Demystified (David Arora) - good but North American centric Psilocybin Mushrooms of the World (Stamets) - beautiful pics Check out fungimap.org.au for an aussie flavour...

  10. I've always 'known' that crushed lavender or a lavender oil on a tissue inhaled is an instant cure for anxiety-attack (a.k.a green-out) and I guess this now proves it. (80mg you say. Is brand important?)

    Sharing knowledge

    Yeah it always felt kind of awkward introducing myself at meets.

    Sharing knowledge

    Absolutely. But go work in corporate environment and it can be every man (or woman) for themselves. Withholding knowledge = job security...
  13. woke up this morning after chatting with freakazoid last night and thought "what the hell" even though I don't feel too sparky I should really get along to this. not a moment too soon. just bought the last ticket! See y'all Sunday.

    salvia docco tonight sbs2

    what's going on with this series? as far as i know, It hasn't been on for a few weeks. then it pops up again but it's just a repeat of the last one about the legendary 'Darrell'.
  17. The white stones are too scrappy looking. When I went back to the landscape supplier to get a couple more bags (as you do), they'd changed the formula - all sorts of colours and sizes. The crushed terra cotta however is uniform and the contrast between the red of the rock and the green of the cacti is really nice. Also, the terra cotta is more weedproof (if such a thing exists). Pach (El Pedro and San Pedro), bridgesii, cuzcoensis, knuthianus, scop x super pedro and an absolutely beautiful Trich called 'Lance' that is just crying out to be cactus of the month. Amazingly, not a single peruvian (but got some seedlings in the pipeline).
  18. Finally finished off my garden after initially using the 'wrong' stones and then losing interest/procrastinating for two years. Before: After:

    Post a random picture thread

    yes. Hosting them on imgur or any other external site uses imgur's bandwidth as far as I know.
