bardo Posted August 22, 2018 I grew some water chestnuts last season in a pot sat at the edge of the dam, got a good yield but the water level fluctuations was a bit of a pain so i am trying this this season with hopes they will float when the water level rises. I put some shade cloth in the bottom of the pots so the soil won't come out. P.S i hope it bloody rains soon, it's been so very depressingly dry 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dicko Posted August 23, 2018 (edited) @TheMooseZeusThey live in the greenhouse at the moment. They were starting to put new growth on so i though now is as good as any other time. They were only in a cell/seedraising tray so they needed the room Edited August 23, 2018 by Dicko 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dicko Posted August 31, 2018 Just treated all my acacias with a rhizobia inoculant. Not sure which type of inoculant it was, but the guy I got it has had explosive growth in his acacias. Can only hope for the same 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Gimli Posted October 19, 2018 Potted up some chavin herbalist stuff I got from @Mapacho. Come back soon bloke ! Bridgesii 'Albi' roots looking quite healthy. Also potted up a heap of stuff from forestry tubes into 140 or 175mm pots. Buddhist Monastery, from a monastery in Perth. Finally got TBMC. Now, to cut it up and graft it 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
withdrawl clinic Posted October 20, 2018 no, don't say graft, all there, in the last pic, is big enough to, directly seek root, after well considered dissection! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gimli Posted November 4, 2018 After years of growing and topping chilli plants, decided I'd give it a whirl on some Datura seedlings. Always had bigger yields, around 2x more pods over the course of a season. 3 topped, 3 not. Updates soon Put this frosty pink in the ground. Threw some slow release fert in the hole and gave it a good watering. Going to lay down some weed mat too Cut these Scop x Super Pedro pups off. I've made 195 tip cuts of pereskiopsis in the last 2 weeks. Season goal is 700 pieces. Not usable size, just tips with roots to grow for the season after. Pricked out some obtusifolia sprouts. Got some more Gastrolobium spp sprouting now too Cut 12 more bits of pach for grafting stock. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
etherealdrifter Posted November 5, 2018 woke up after a deep sleep and took some pics "Socket" planted 4 acacias that have been potbound for a while Phlebophylla Acuminata narrow leaf Coutii -these looked pretty sad but still had some vibrant roots and stems - gave them some good vibes roseii pupping a grenade scopX growing into a monsta Super Pedro X hmmm maybe - can't remember? pesky weeds shadowing a wee bunch of tbm's Crazy Spiny with a great mop of fruit fur and finally, i've noticed there's 3 blue tongues doing the rounds of snail catcher duties this year - pretty happy about that *sorry about the wonky rotations. Hope everybody is gearing up for summer 6 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
