  1. Ive had the same interest in making my own didge and have made some from pcv, bamboo and have one I got given as a wedding present from the wife.

    Without having to find a hollowed out tree. I have been looking for a fallen branch that would be long enough without any cracks or knots. That I could saw in half lenghth ways and then hollow it out with a chisel. Then glue the two hollowed out halves together with wood glue and fine sawdust.

    Or there was some blank hollowed out trunks available online from the top end that I come across, that you have to calve to the shape you want and all the other processes but that cost money and I'm a tightarse.


  2. Great pictures tripsis.

    It looks like you got to see a lot of the country, from deserts to jungle climates

    And such diversity in plants.

    The first pic of the weed looks indica to me but there defiantly is some sativa pic's among them.

    I don't know what else to say but you have made me want to visit India


  3. I just saw a ad for this show on the 21, 22, 23 @ 8:30 on sbs.

    It has nothing to do with plants but thought it would be a interesting watch.

    From sbs site: Six ordinary Australians agree to challenge their preconceived notions about refugees and asylum seekers by embarking on a confronting 25-day journey. Tracing in reverse the journeys that refugees have taken to reach Australia, they travel to some of the most dangerous and desperate corners of the world, with no idea what is in store for them along the way.

    Deprived of their wallets, phones and passports, they board a leaky refugee boat, are rescued mid-ocean, experience immigration raids in Malaysia, live in a Kenyan refugee camp and visit slums in Jordan before ultimately making it to the Democratic Republic of Congo and Iraq, protected by UN Peacekeepers and the US military. For some of them it’s their first time abroad. For all of them, it’s an epic journey and the most challenging experience of their lives.

  4. This has got to be one of my favorite fruits also. It might be just me but I thought the fruit tastes a little like creaming soda soft drink.

    I think I might have to order a pair from daleys to add to the fruit and veg collection.

    So much to collect and so little space to grow it all


  5. i enjoyed the read tripsis and there's some really good pictures that go along with it.

    you have got me interested in the fruit of this shrub, what it taste like and what you could make

    with it.

    how long does it take from seed to fruit production? also, how long until you can tell the sex of the srub?


  6. Hi

    I've been reading up about cactus grafting and am dieing to give it a go.

    Could anyone help me out with a few Pereskiopsis cutting so I can multiply them

    And start some grafts and hopefully pass on some Pereskiopsis

    I can pay $ for them as I have very little to trade with at the moment

  7. I don't like the look of a mob of people waving flags and cheering the death of a person.

    He may of planed the dearth of Americans but without the american government meddling in other people's lives and there natural resources. America might never have been targeted

  8. Yes Amazonian, unsunny Melbourne.

    There are a bunch of different plant that I want to grow but I think I might have some trouble with the weather getting down to 0 deg overnight.

    It's not going to stop me from trying though.
