Getafix Posted April 12, 2012 Hi all, Amasing what you can amass in 3 weeks when you really want it! Some of the bigger cutting very, very generously given to me by a member and the rest bought from other members. Thank you all for easing the pain of parting with my New Zealand collection! Sorry photo's aren't too flash . 7 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bundy Bear Posted April 12, 2012 that looks wicked, i've started to amass quite a collection myself but your's are looking great mate especially the one in the first pic, my eye's are fucked but that looks like a wonderful plant 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Belching Posted April 12, 2012 Good gravy you have been busy! I adore your crests! Did you have a cacti budget set when you moved over? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chef's Foreskin Posted April 12, 2012 That is a nice "start" to a collection lol I'm guessing that you were into collecting them previously? RF Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Getafix Posted April 13, 2012 Cheers guys/girls? Bundy Bear- Yes I love that plant too, I believe it's a Knutianus. Looking forward to all my Eileen's growing spines again, they were cut off for shipping Belching- I did have a very hazy budget but to be honest I can't help myself so it's blown out the water and I am sure there will be more expenditure! Rumple- yeah I had a collection of about 200 Trichs in New Zealand that I had grown from seed. Alot of them are with other NZ members of this forum. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CβL Posted April 19, 2012 Wow, that's a wicked start already. How does it feel to be starting again in material, but not starting again with knowledge? Also I can probably send you some seeds of a Peruvianus x NZ Pachanoi once I get a hold of them. I'll let you know. :] Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It is fantastic to start again, just have to be patient as would love to see big fta Trich's in my garden again. The knowledge gained from my first foray into growing has definately chnaged my collection (alot more hybrids I never dreamed about before!) and hopefully some better growing skills! Would love some of that seed, keep me in mind. Cheers Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Getafix Posted April 20, 2012 Are those perlite? Hey mate, No just some white pebbles. To be honest I am not a big fan of stone around my cacti but the little stones give good support to the seedling's while they grow. Cheers Quentin Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bogfrog Posted April 23, 2012 Nice to see your collection is well on its way again! I also have some seed for you, will flick you a pm soonish. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
