Dicko Posted November 10, 2017 So being in a state where active acacias are scarce and other suitable plants are rare as unicorn s**t Ive decided to try phalaris species whilst I wait for my furure acacias. Maybe Phalaris brachystachys? Or another type that is recommended from anyone in the know? Also wondering if what ive read about gramine being insoluable in naphtha is true etc. Any help is appreciated as always Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dicko Posted November 12, 2017 No one uses phalaris? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Strontium Dawg Posted November 12, 2017 It can be hit and miss, I had a bunch of Aq1 and Yugo red but I gave them to a member at a meet a few years ago. I thought I saw someone posting about rhizomes a week or so ago, do a search on "rhizome" and try your luck. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Crop Posted November 12, 2017 (edited) Ha Dicko. I'm no expert on this stuff, so I hope someone that know's their shit answers you. From what I think I know, brachystachys can be great or toxic, best to grow from rhizome. Safer and pretty good is aqutica, which is easy to get in Australia from farm supply stores or some times Shaman Australis, or herbalistics have it http://herbalistics.com.au/product/phalaris-aquatica-cv-australian-seed/. Sorry can't be more helpful. Edited November 12, 2017 by Crop Clarification. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dicko Posted November 12, 2017 Much appreciated man Thanks Was hoping someone here had a confirmed strain they could send on thus eliminating the variables. From what i have read the toxic alkaloid is poorly nearly insoluble in one of the commonly used solvents.. But its looking more like ill have to buy some seed and hope for the best.... if I do go with this option 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
