Aussie Growers Thread

I remember reading about colchicine soaking to produce polyploidy back when I was a kid. Was always keen to try it out one day

The myth of Mullumbimby Madness was the seeds were soaked in water that a gout tablet had been dissolved in.Some gout medication does contain Colchicine so it could possibly be done,D.J Short thinks that some Thai lines were treated with Colchicine at some point.

I'm leaning towards sativa next season. Grow half bodhi and 3 or 4 sativa strains .

I personally like sativa as my day time smoke. It's good fun to grow 2 polar oposites as well.something diffrent

Yep, the old gout tablets contained colchicine though you can supposedly make it from the bulbs of the plant (colchicine autumnale) as well.

There's a thread on icmag about creating polyploids that's worth a read if you're interested in it.
This paper might be of interest also

Ran out of seeds so I'm going to do a attitude order. 20 free female seeds

I have had a bit of a read over the years, I wouldn't be playing around with it until I had plenty of beans to try (of one strain) given the chances of actually achieving a polyploid. Thanks for the link though, I will have a look at it

I just had a read on polyploidy.....still don't get it haha.something about chromosomes and big strawberry's lol..is it kinda like down syndrome in humans?

Mannnn..my missus just informed me that my old meds were colchicine ! Haha I googled it and the missus said " why are you googling your old meds" see if I can find some and if you want it Coco it's yours. I had them for a heart condition. I hated the shit so I never took it .

 

[Joomby]

Just googled it some more..no wonder I didn't like the shit. I took it twice and hated it..had to lie to my old man about taking it. Used to spit it in the bin when the missus wasn't looking haha

[Venus55]

Ok so something came over me tonight while I was in there and before I knew it the scissors and infamous string came out and I tipped and tied where I felt I needed to and voila pretty even canopy happening...



I’ve also pissed the drip clean off as it was brought to my attention that phosphoric acid doesn’t dissolve salts (which I thought it did) and that proper leaching every couple of wks is a better way to do it and being sure not to over feed. It makes sense and they’re happy so I am too.

(I need to go in there stoned more often)

 

[Bongsmoke420]

Fuck it I’m gonna get some weeding cake f2 x jungle cake and tropicanna cookies f2 this morning

Edit, Probably just get the tropicanna cookies f2 today.... I’m tempted tho

It's the old fellas who would know and it's the old fellas who won't talk haha.my connection in the area doesn't even have a phone like most of them so it's hard to get hook ups to meet people.the pub next to the museum is the best bet at finding someone who knows.

My old man used to live at Main arm. Didn't even have running water. You bathed and got water from the creek in the back yard. Have a growing uncle still in the area (he was the one who got done with a yacht full coming into America from Canada). A few different strains of Madness from my understanding and was really just the local name of the huge trees they used to grow as it was great marketing. How do you add 10%? Call it MM.

 

[Lucky Luke]

They had another Columbian strain up there called old mother sativa. I know of 2 people who have the strains . but I also know I'll never get my hands on them. Most of the mm growers would rather see it go excint then go mainstream. The fuckers think there some secret society of cannabis growers haha

I'm pretty sure I have some seeds of that Bob (old mother Sativa). I got em from you so if you would like some back just PM.
