The carpark is small and usually reserved for sellers who (rightfully) do...

Re: North West Cactus Mart 2024 (Saturday 4th May)
Slightly off topic, but what a poor idea to block simple right click copying from a website (was just going to check the exact location of the mart). I agree entirely. It shouldn't need to be blocked like that but I got fed up of finding pictures from the North West Mesemb Show all over Pinterest a...

Re: A slow start
I've sprayed everything with the hose pipe once (the floor is full of rescued plants and I can't get in). I would normally have watered everything by now. Last year I started a new outside job on the 4th April. That day was wet and then we never had any wet days until the Summer School Holidays. No ...

Amazing what you find when Spring Cleaning - unusual hybrid
I'd forgotten I had this until I was Spring Cleaning yesterday. I can't remember who gave it to me but they said it was a rare hybrid between Ortegocactus macdougallii and Obregonia denegrii. Looks rather unusual and I am wondering what class it should go in for our next branch show. . . P2342453.JPG

Re: (Sowing) Where do you put the organic part in a pot: on top, in the middle or at the bottom?
Hello, I am about to sow new cactus and haworthia seeds. I will use 80% inorganic part and 20% organic but I am hesitating about where to put the organic part in a pot: on top, in the middle or at the bottom? I think that in nature the "organic part" is at the top and I can reproduce it. ...

Re: Seed raising compost
Try the right arrow. The dots between 6 and 44 are sort of "hidden" pages. They are there, but the dots prevent a whole list of numbers appearing 1 to 44Eric Williams wrote: ↑Sun Mar 24, 2024 2:22 pm Hi Simon thanks for reply. I go from page 1 to page 6 next page is 44 lol. Don’t know what’s going on. Cheers

Re: Re-potting and itchy eyes
Most likely dust. Timely reminder that any form of airborn dust can be dangerous to ones health. Not nice, but I used to work with salvaged goods (smoke, fire, flood damage etc) and after any day spent with dusty items I was able to blow my nose and "it" usually came out with traces of bla...
