mate and I went for a bit of a hunt today thought I'd share some pics of some gym's from the far south of W.A. Pins galore

haha here we go the 2 experts dissagree I would tend to go with zelly and your original thoughts of peru spines dont quite look bridgey enough for me

do you have holes in the bottom of your FC ? you should have holes on all sides including the bottom the perlite shouldn't stay wet enough to go bad in any way if you need to bring the humidity down why not just add more holes to let more air flow you want plenty of air flow

a bubbler should increase humidity not decrease it I would suggest bringing your FC inside the house rather than the shed if temps in the shed are going to be a problem a shed is going to also potentially increase your risk of contams unless its a fairly clean place that being said contams aren't really a problem once your cakes are colonised its very hard for any contams to take hold this is why airing out your FC is not a problem you also say you have a bug problem in there another reason to maybe stay away from the shed and a fan is most definitely not a good idea unless you are able to keep your humidity up while the fan runs which will be very difficult all the fan will do is decrease humidity and dry everything out unless your FC is absolutely huge like an entire room none of these things are necessary shotgun terrarium remove lid once a day and fan it out give it a mist with a spray bottle once or twice a day nothing to it

not sure if its actually his birthday facebook says its not haha Happy birthday if it is the right day

I can vouch for jox great guy wish I could purchase some stuff damn W.A. and its damn quarantine laws

yeh its F latispinus I know I love that lil guy one of my favorites

few pics

so my partner and I are trying to sell a house at the moment how long do we have before it gets to the point of not even being worth selling we've already lost 100 grand on it in the last year

Anybody heard of this looks like it could be ok any fans of trailer park boys might recognise this guy/girl hahaha I was confused as hell at first I thought maybe it was fake but it is a real documentary thats in the making just thought I'd share for anyone who might be interested

not quite gonna cut it unfortunately miss meander it needs to be happening automatically so if I was going to try and mess around and see if i could learn some of this crazy electronics arduino stuff would something like one of these be good to buy to help learn how it all works http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Lab-Starter-basic-Kit-MEGA-2560-R3-Kit-for-Arduino-Enthusiasts-Nano-Leonardo-/151766863188?hash=item2356028d54:g:18YAAOSwgQ9VvswS http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/3D-Printer-RFID-Starter-Learning-Kit-for-Arduino-from-Knowing-to-Utilizing-/231464223379?hash=item35e457c293:g:O5IAAOSwEeFVBpRe

hahaha I know electronics for me is like trying to read some kind of alien language I recently tried to see if I could figure out how to wire up a standalone crossfader for my turntables shit I felt pretty stupid once I started reading stuff and watching videos even with that help I had no clue hahaha thanks for all the help and ideas guys your certainly giving me alot to think about for my future greenhouse builds I might have to hit you up Ace the functions needed to be controlled would probably be fairly simple really (for someone who knows what they're doing) all I'd really be looking at controlling is humidity and temperature as darklight suggested the heat sensitive pneumatic roof vents was what I'd planned on using so really just something to help control humidity would be great

I have always dreamed of having a greenhouse with full control via computer haha I might just drag this up again once I finally can build my big greenhouse been paying off our land for just over a year now its been one shitty fuken hell of a year but we'll be stickin a shed on there in jan and start building house not long after that once that sheds up though the greenhouses will begin ahhh finally

hahah ok thanks guys well I've never even heard of the word arduino just had to check google I'm definitely not one to be messin around with electronics I wouldn't even know where to start haha its surprising there isnt more timers that can achieve this it would seem my best bet would be to try one of those analogue ones maybe give wert's idea go see what kinda sketchy shit I can rig up with a few different timers hopefully that will do what I need thanks for the help guys I'll give that a go

do you know the brand and model number or anything

Hey guys I have been trying to find a timer that can go on and off multiple times a day I really didn't think this would be all that difficult but its proving to be not such an easy thing to find I have managed to find one however its American so obviously not suitable for here in oz if anybody can help me out on this one it would be greatly appreciated P.S. I didn't know where to put this so I just put it here

Yeh I know I keep looking at it thinking about where I'm gonna go with it its rather overwhelming haha so much can be done

few more pics I scored this beautiful big ficus from the kerbside rubbish collection when I was up in perth back at the start of the year I chopped the top off it and half of its root system and got it all potted up in some fresh soil its coming back great now cant wait to do somethin with this gonna be a few years before I can get it into a pot and lookin nice has an awesome trunk on it

Thought I'd share a few pics of some of my favourites from my collection

had to share this one

glad to hear its not just me thats getting some pretty shitty success rates with astro's and peres I've done plenty of them plenty of them have taken no problems some have stalled others have immediately shown growth but as for rate of them taking its definitely noticeably lower than other cacti

I'd be interested to know how being white affects your situation

If you really want pups from it I would say the best and possibly only way to get it to pup would be to chop it cut the bulk of the roots off do and upside down graft with the bottom rooted section with areoles then BAP you should get pups no problems

$650 a fortnight is actually really good how can you complain about that seriously back in the day when I was on newstart I got 320 a fortnight shit was hard but I survived maybe dont buy so much crack man

just keep it and try and propagate it yourself bro
