Golding is just moving now. They're coming on very strong!! Better throw in a large Cherax destructor we pulled up the other day. Just so ppl know im not just one of the full of BS internet guys.....again....

I didnt really know when we bought this place that the old owner had started to breed yabbies. They were endemic to the water course we live on. I built a solar solar air pump to help circulate the water and stop it settling to much in the ponds they live in. We're going for a land based...

Nah I dont touch seasol. Our water is at 40-100ppm coming out of our springs that the yabbies live in....that gets used to water the hops with. The only thing that is depleted in the soil is nitrogen. That keeps dropping as the yabbies grow but the phosphorus climbs due to them processing the...

Yay I like plant nerds....have you looked into Silica? we'll be testing next year :D although it raises PH so not much good unless you have scope for liming and were at about 5.5Ph so should be fine to have a play with!!!

For a start. Ive had two rhizomes growing in a bucket of water for 5 months now, no air sitting in part sun.....So they defineatly like water ;) plus I got to see how the bines work the rhizomes will throw out shoots anything that goes down will pick up water for the rhizomes to bulk up. Each...

Well its is about offering different things. Im in talks with some viticulturalists because rhizomes and they've been studied a great deal. There is a whole bunch of rhizomes here that all started out the same 30-40 years ago and have all completely changed genetics now just due to soil water...

I got mostly crowns and its 95% failed. I dont really mind as Ill move the golding into that 200 plot 3.5m system later this year. I suspect they dwarfed due to sandstone not to deep under them. If plants roots hit rock they'll stunt if htey cant get the water and nutrients they are looking for...

Did you see our article in Craftypint on Monday? Lets just say I wasnt expecting this to happen in my first year. Massive plans for next year now....got my dwarf setup all ready to go and then going to put in extra big infrastructure to do at least 200 columbus rhizomes next year...

Better show off what happened in SA......Here is my epic Columbus hedge....very much a success!!! So much for me just knowing how to mow lawns ey...... I did try to point out Im a horticulturalist so I kinda know what im doing with plants.....but hey.....not many people around as crazy as me...

Sorry Lads....been a tad busy sorting out the super structure....hows everyones winter been....and now early spring....Im not reading all that ****..Thanks for the input though....those that say it cannot be done...well guess they try dis those that actually can!!! Cheers for those that have...

Males fertilise the female....plants humans....same farking thing....I hope its not to much for you guys to figure out....male cluster...female cluster.....what happens...as clone...no a genetic clone..yes....things can change with slightly different soil ph...but I wont go into PH seems we cant...

Wow does Yob run a brothel full of home brewers of something....seems he has a few *******???

The seed from a cross bred male??? MALE DONT PRODUCE SEEDS....THEY FERTILISE FEMALE FLOWERS....you know like your dick does....ffs....keep up....all im hearing is I know plants watch this.....weeeeeeeee off a cliff.....splat.....

The whole point of cross breeding is to pool the genetics of two plants that is beneficial to a crop....not come up with a clone.....seriously.....STOP........

Its not even hort 101...is like primary school 101.....Pollination is the first step in the process of sexual reproduction in plants. In pollination, a male pollen grain is transferred to the female part of a flower, germinates and fertilizes the ovule. All of these steps must occur for a seed...

Female flowers are pollinated from male flowers.....geeeeeezus....just STOP trying to pretend you know stuff about something you know NOTHING about Yob....seriously....you have NFI about plants....so just stop!!!

Sorry seed from a cluster male? Male plants do not have seeds.....

Cluster breeds could be from a male or female donor.....but you know this....oh **** no you dont!! So informed....cluster male of female?? What you recon...you want me to mail you some to do what you like with....$50 inc express postage for 1 rhizome...and its yours....will be there monday...

I doubt any small time breeder would be interested in growing anything BAR what they know is great unless its a cross of two already great varieties....see interesting fact....humans worked this stuff out by watching plants not the other way around. Plants do these things naturally....Corn as I...
