sharxx101 Posted May 10, 2009 Got my cuts too thanks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
FancyPants Posted May 13, 2009 Got my cuts, thank you so much I'll be planting a stem piece somewhere I don't mind it running rampant. Actually is this time of year suitable to plant it in Sydney ground? I should probably wait until it warms up again shouldn't I? My little caapis in pots seem to be doing well in the sun, one of which I think I can actually see the shoots growing in front of my eyes hehe. One more question, I've read that the material stores well without losing potency, but should it be kept dry? Frozen? Fine in a cool dry cupboard? Airtight?

folias Posted May 13, 2009 I'll be planting a stem piece somewhere I don't mind it running rampant. Actually is this time of year suitable to plant it in Sydney ground? I should probably wait until it warms up again shouldn't I? get a little green house thingy from bunnings! some rooting gel is good too! Someone told me you can just lie the vine in coconut fibre for a winter in a sealed box, and in spring, it will be all nice and rooted! this is a good ref too http://forums.ayahuasca.com/phpbb/viewtopic.php?t=2694 One more question, I've read that the material stores well without losing potency, but should it be kept dry? Frozen? Fine in a cool dry cupboard? Airtight? You should really root the fresh material and it will grow! Dried vine just needs to be stored like any other herb. Julian.

folias Posted February 16, 2011 I have access to this vine again! If you are interested in cuttings send me a PM! :-) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Apple of the Earth Posted February 18, 2011 Wow that is quite that plant. How many years did that take you to grow I have one at the moment but it is only a little buba any tips in maintaining it. Should I keep it inside in a controled environment or leave it outside to tuffen it up. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
folias Posted February 18, 2011 For sure it should be outside! It is not mine. It is 11 years old I think. And it is given a LOT of water in summer. :-) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
herbal_hindsight Posted February 18, 2011 Anymore available folias? I've got a young cutting in the ground in the property i'm renting atm... hoping she grows much larger before i have to move but if not ill do my best to take cuttings or transplant [still a transplantable size atleast for now] i've noticed she is loving the weather we have been getting lately... much more humid than normal... i've got a home-made liquid fertiliser from [racing grade] pigeon poo and [washed] seaweed... approx 5-6 years old... my other plants LOVE it... would it be recommended for this beauty? I currently have her growing under a clear sheet of perspex to increase humidity being i'm in SA and for now it's working... i'm more concerned about our winter... Any growing advice is welcome and if you can spare any more cuttings; name your price and i'll get it sorted, it's the sort of plant you can't grow too much of... especially in Adelaide... I don't even know if anyone else is trying to grow it here?! Thanks so much for spreading the love Folias... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
folias Posted February 19, 2011 yeah, I have a fair bit available. The good news here is that interest is much less than in previous times, which means people are much more sorted than they used to be. And there are people in SA growing it! :-) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
