^ that looks like a re usable shopping bag, would a bag like that do the trick? I got a buttload of them in my cupboard haha good ol plastic bag ban!

I need to go out and get some 90L pots to if this is the case :S I'm gonna have to get 12 can't afford that ATM lol I thought building them up would help keep the moisture even throughout the pot? And reduce root rot?

SAB isn't completely fucked

If anyones interested send me a PM with ya email there's no way in hell i could invite 150 people off the top of my head lol so i figured id hit the forums

No real need to add my 2c because the topic has been covered awesomely! I use native Australian mix, in the same boat as you (can't put them in the ground for a while) I've got them in small pots ATM but am going to build up to 90L pots as they get bigger. Got 6 Obtusifolia seedlings that are doing heaps nice ATM, unlike my last failed attempt due to over loving

you should be fine mate, is the box not labelled? or did you mean the seed packet? ive heard of delays in customs due to seeds not being labeled species and genus. but its not illegal to grow cacti is it? should get them eventually Few years back i ordered some stuff from UK, took 6 weeks i had just assumed it wasnt coming haha

Went down to the nursery last week picked up 5: 2 acuminata, 1 podalyriifolia, 1 longifolia and a melanoxylon Cheers for the info mate

Yeah soon after that they were placed outside, been keeping a close eye on them the weather has been very random. They are doing quite nice though. There are 2 that are very tall, but seem to be stuck in the seed? one is about 4cm long stem and at the top its the seed, no leaves or anything :S any advice on what i should do for those 2 would be awesome

Except for the pic posted earlier, used jiffy 7 peat pellets those ones germ'd in about 5 days.

My mimosa hostilis sprouted in 2 days just using brunnings seed raising mix, using a premium potting mix for when i upgrade the pot

Here's a couple of my babies got 6 Acacias sprouted, heres one of them they are all about the same stage or getting there: Got 7 sprouted Mimosa, theres another 5 seeds i got started last night all the 7 are about this stage: Its getting so close to spring i can almost taste it!

I started my mimosa's and acacia's about 2 weeks ago in a seedling box, they're outside now all doing very nice, still quite small but the random weather hasn't effected them at all Tobacco would be sweet, something i def want to add to my collection

That's a wicked looking hookah btw

I've bought 3 billys on different occasions off everyonedoesit, they're based in Europe I think, bit of a wait bit I've gotten everything fine they also do flavourings that come in a dropper, got like 10 flavours was sooooooooo gooooood!!

Missed out!! Spewin ahh well. Good work buddy very generous

I'll grab some buddy if you got them still

Brutal he could have made it a bit faster though lol

Hey mate is it cool to come up to the nursery and have a browse? Just started my acacia collection want to make it gradually bigger. I live northern suburbs so it'll be way easier then posting them Peace buddy P.S do you still have acuminata in stock?

Oh spewin, fair enough though its a beautiful plant. Easy come easy go Peace buddy

Sent ya a PM mate, forum generosity is the greatest cant wait to give back!

Cheers for the tips yeah im planning on getting them outside asap was just gonna wait till the last of winter has gotten its sillies out ;) atm they are sitting in a seedling box i got off a friend: Would it be ok the chuck them outside now you think? next week is looking pretty grim weather wise but if it'll benefit the plants then ill do it I got a mate who is keen to get a whole variety of plants on the go so ill be taking most of them up there probably, ill just have a few in some big pots doing their thing outside until i can put them in the ground. Thanks again for the tips, ill update when there's something to see

*Sigh* WA have also increased their charges for cannabis possession, they are coming down hard. It's a load of ballbags, certain chemicals yes but all they are after is $$$ and to shove more people behind bars for next to no reason

Are cuttings that have been put in soil meant to be watered from day 1? Or do you wait until it has started rooting to start watering?

Thanks for that mate, yeah i took the lid and stuff off its just sitting in front of the window. My mates got a fluro setup he's not using at the moment, ill take them up there and bang them in the cupboard he said he'd be happy to once they have germinated and the temp has warmed up a bit, should i get them outside under a nice shady area? I'm planning to keep them in pots for at least a few years because of the un-predictable living situation atm, but once I've eventually settled in somewhere they'll be going in. I'll investigate what i can get for a potting mix with the $$ i got, will look into some longer pots. Thanks again buddy, I'll show progress when some has been made

Moved the tub to in front of the window, with the positioning of the window and curtain the sun only really shines through in the morning, but it will still not fall directly on the tub. Is the lid on the tub necessary? Probably going to take it off don't think it'll make a difference.
