  1. yeah I'm from chittaway Bay and we copped it pretty savagely. The creek joined the lake so water was about a meter deep through yards, houses everything. And now its raining again Aaaargh. Quite an experience rowing boats around on the road.

    As far as plants go, all you can do is wait and see. Like alot of other possessions. Finally got power back wednesday after loosing it friday at about lunch time.


  2. hey all

    I have a Brugmansia (pink/white) which is just under a meter tall and also a Hoodia gordonii which is about 90mmx15mm. I would like to trade for a decent sized sceletium emarcidum plant or just make an offer.


  3. In case anyone out there hasn't heard or hasn't found out the hard way, I left a few loph.w fruits in an icecream container overnight because I didn't have time to get the seed out yet. Anyway, when I got up in the morning they were gone. I looked everywhere, but they were gone. I'm figuring the damned cockroaches got them. The funny thing is, I also had some henbane fruits in there, but they were wise enough not to touch them.


  4. I tried growing and killed numerous small viridis plants until I got sick of it and bought a bigger plant when I was at SAB. I've got it sitting in the shade of a tree growing quite nicely on the central coast of nsw. Admittedly my mates up north is going way better, although its in the ground.

    My P.Carth I just moved to a sunnier spot and its cranking at the moment.


  5. Over the weekend I was at the All Seasons nursery at Ourimbah, and they had what I think is a T. Peruvianus. It's a nice plant about a foot tall and a pretty good price too. So if you would like one for your collection check it out.


  6. Can I also suggest that if its practical, it's probably a good idea to have someone with you, for comfort and grounding if needed. In countries where it is legal I have had brews of pedro and peruvianus that have been a pleasurable walk in the park. My experience with bridgesii was one of the most personal and profound experiences I have ever had. For those who have been there, the loop can be a little confronting but once you work it out and get to the next part, well what can I say. I probably had too much, and the people I was with said they haven't seen anyone go so deep for so long(6hrs before I was with the land of the living), but I wouldn't think twice about doing it again. Definitely not for the faint hearted, but it is certainly a life changing experience.


  7. I don't think it's necesary to have it in a mini greenhouse either. I am on the central coast and mine are all outside in pots and are all growing magically.


  8. How are you all?

    I have got 2 penis cacti plants, one's 170mm and the other is 180mm. I would like to trade these for an eileen cutting and a super pedro cutting, So if you would like to trade just pm me.


  9. How are you all?

    I have got a bunch of silene capensis seeds at the moment, so I figured I'd sell them.

    $10 a pack and each pack has about 100 seeds, and includes postage. So if you are interested pm me. would also trade for eileen or super pedro cuttings. I don't always get to a computer so it might take a few days to get back to you.

    Cheers

  10. Auctions are great if you've got someone with you who knows about cars and you get there early enough to check them out properly. You also need to be able to keep a cool head and not go over the amount of money you feel each car is worth, which is very easy to do when you start bidding and get drawn in.

    Also patience is the key. I don't know how many cars I've repaired for people who have just rushed in and bought the first piece of junk they come across. If you don't know anyone with the time and knowledge to help you look, I would stick E's idea of the NRMA. They can save you heaps of grief.
