TLS! I got ya! its an acacia from a similiar phenotype like is acacia maidenii!
and i KNOW i am right, because they develop from mimosa like leaves to phyllodia as you show! i KNOW because once i owned some maidens wattle myself!

Jawohl Carl du hast recht !!!! Nach so lange zeit bin ich echt ueberascht . Herzliche gluckwunsch !!!!!!

10 points for Carl !!!!! The seeds were bought as Acacia Maidenii from a smart shop . If anyone wants to they could go back and look at what i said / the clues i gave and have a good laugh ........ I think that -----> "I think .......this whole thing is........ a case .......of not seeing the .........forest because the trees....... are in the way ." was a good one ....... ?

The Desmanthus looks to me like the air around it is to dry ? I had the same problem with acacias and mimosas to . The fuckers grew long and thin to about 50 cms and as  i tryed to get them used to not so humid air outside the greenhouse most of them got to look like that one ...... then the leaves dropped off one by one ........ and then they died .

A big problem for me when i was growing exotic plants was often getting seeds to sprout ........ Did you have to do anything to get ´the Desmanthus seed to sprout ? If so what ?

Have you ever grown P.Viridis ?

actually it was the hint with "not seeing the forest" that made me get it ;D
veryvery good quiz indeed!!! we used to do the same on some ethnobotanical board, and i remember i had literally the same fun when i made them to guess what my coca plants were ;D

I have to add that those pictures are a few years old, and nearly every plant showed on them is dead now  :( especially the desmanthus, they died a few weeks later IIRC. it was not the dry air that killed them, they got spider mites because of all the hemp in the grow room, the mites killed the kratom too, the ololiuqui, the coca got the but got cured by putting them outside.... where a cold middle european rain killed them.

germination, cant remember how much money i wasted into exotic seeds without getting them to sprout...
i have never used something besides microwave sterilisation afterwards maybe sprinkled ethanol on the soil. the most frequent germination help i used, was luck and hope ;D

p. viridis, yes, scored once a bag of very fresh leaves from a friend and nearly every leaf rooted, most of them got even 2 or 3 fresh sprouts!
but in the meantime i gave them away, sold them, and dont have even one left ;D
but im too engaged in other projects at the moment, could any time have one back if i wanted so.

I'm growing a beautiful White Widow/Northern Light strain outdoors.

4 months down, 2 to go...and their looking really nice. They seem to like the bat poo.. ;)

I ran out of food for them last week before i bought the bloom, or so i thought.

I had a big bag of that slow release fertilizer which comes in pellets. Its full of seaweed, blood & bone, etc.

I threw a few handfuls into a large bucket and stirred it up and let it sit for a few days.

The smell was terrible, but provided what i needed before i bought a proper flowering solution.

Noticed rapid growth of the flowers, so was very impressed. Would love to upload some pics, but not sure i really want to do that.
Is there a secure way of privately uploading photos?

Bring on harvest time... :P

After finally getting my hands on a high yielding Claviceps Paspali culture, I'll be growing that this year. I'll post some pictures soon.
