Soon I will create Curcuma caesia × amada! What are the political implications of a new herb?
>>533834400I can't wait.keep me posted.
Thread theme! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UEWCCSuHsuQ
>>533834587I will buy the roots from eBay.
>>533834737honestly tickled for you.you're the guy who posts weird plants all the time.
>>533834400
>>533834400hey we meet again!there is another cool big fat turmeric (not regular one) let me show you if you keep it bumbpe
>>533836142Is it the Javanese Turmeric?
>>533834400Epic white people shit moment
>>533836072That is true! >>533836119That's a Cannabis!
>>533836218The Aryanity of Black Mango Ginger!
>>533836218go die stupid brown.>>533836250I had never heard of monotropes until you started posting them then I started seeing them in real life.
I want to grow unique plants in my yard but I also want to grow successful plants and I'm in zone 9 so it's kind of hard and the soul isn't great here
>>533836250>That's a Cannabis!And it's a good thing.
>>533836495Olympic Rainforest just wouldn't be the Olympic Rainforest without them. >>533836678Turmerics do best with warm clay soil.
here it is!big fat turmericthey call it "kasturi manjal" locally, a kasturi flavor to it, very effective for surviving in jeet pollution of automobile traffic and electromagnetics
>>533834400What is it with Brits and consanguination?
>>533837001Ooh Curcuma aromatica! Did you know there's a species of Turmeric eaten by the Aboriginals of Cape York related to Curcuma aromatica called Curcuma australasica?
>>533837076ask your mother.
>>533837076Indians had previously crossbred many local species with Curcuma longa to get local varieties with complex genetic heritage, very interesting roots of the roots!
>>533837188How dare you, sir! My mother is not British! 23andMe even sent a correction after we got the devastating news she might be a quarter British but thank the gods they made a mistake. Turns out she is a much more civilised quarter Russian.
>>533834400Thats not a question for /pol/ you inbred freak
>>533836791Cannabis is very stinky these days!
>>533837493
>>533837413My Mother is Irish/Ulster Scots did you know?
>>533837318Imagine walking out to your allotment to see this absolute unit of a lad, on his knees, a rhizome in each dirt caked paw, whispering, "now kith!"
>>533837413>civiliSed
>>533838014Lel you use a pollen brush to do the hybridising!
>>533834400Wait, you can just do that with plants? That seems as improbable as getting a cross between a dog and a cat. Are plants even real?
>>533837645That's why i prefer sativa over indica. Sativas can smell like straight citrus plants or like pine. Indicas are the skunky/burnt rubber nigger smelling one's. Better high off the sativa too imo
>>533838202Not all Plants but these are in the same genus so it's definitely possible, probable even! Very real!
>>533837149curcuma aromatica hmm>>533837645do you like to eat them male cannabis flowers ?
>>533838255Sadly it's always indicas being sold... I don't know why but they do!
>>533838349Never eaten Cannabis flowers but I don't like getting high, I don't drink for this reason even though I smoke Tobacco.
Plant thread ? Check out these epiphytes
>>533838692They look nice, I see you are from Réunion, is there still a lot of endemic flora? Looks full of hidden gems!
>>533834666interesting music sound>>533838525not to get high, for proper digestion and other properties, two blooming flowers are enoughtesting webm creation
>>533838692
>>533838414Weird, they usually sell lemon or amnesia haze here. Both sativa
>>533838825Yeah about 28% of the vascular plants here are strictly endemic to the island, and and additional 17% endemic to the whole Mascarein archipelagoIt's very diverse due to the altitude gradient (sea level to 3000+ meters) and sharp contrast in rainfall from coast to coast
>>533838859Helps me think, Gamelan Music! >>533838859Carpenter Bees are just brilliant, no honey but the most reliable pollinators. Problem is Cannabis is a controlled substance in the UK so street stuff is the only available ones, no market for the flowers here sadly.
>>533838915Obviously Swedes have better taste in such things. >>533839202Giant Pigeons used to live there too, the Reunion Solitaire. Dutch sailors ate them into extinction.
>>533839593My mistake, that was the Rodrigues Solitaire... There was a flightless Ibis though!
>>533834400I always add a half teaspoon of turmeric when I'm making taco seasoning. I bet that hybrid would taste god tier.
>>533839460>gamelan musicinteresting thanks!help identifying this fat leaved plant? also you tried rhodiola root?
>>533840204Much thank you! I hate running out of ideas!>>533840616That's a Mexican Jellybean Plant! That's a hybrid too!
>>533840616Don't eat that though they're poisonous.
>>533841997>Don't eat that though they're poisonous.won't, but I do eat ornamental purslane leaf>>533840616 > you tried rhodiola root?
>>533834400I’ve been thinking of growing these. I also want to grow shampoo ginger
>>533842740I haven't tried Rhodiola sorry, I heard it's a bit memed and not actually good or bad for you... Purslane is very good for you though, even the Ornamentals.
>>533842928You could hybridise the Shampoo Ginger with the Common Ginger, might improve yields and disease resistance in progeny.
>>533838414sativas are a pain in the ass to raise. finnicky as shit with nutes, and they grow so fucking tall even with topping and scrogging
>>533837318Why do they always delete your threads??they leave all the jewish bait threads go to the topunless people start posting redpills and and the jews abandon the thread.
>>533843462Rather smoke Brussels Sprouts Buds than Indica Cannabis tbqh. >>533843596They just haven't ascended to the Wholesome Pureland Realm.
>>533837645Yeah you guys have really strong stuff over there. I smoked a joint in London and thought my heart would stop.
>>533843992It's like glue or cocaine, if not repulsive to one's nose, then it means there's something wrong with you, colloquially speaking.
>>533844100>if not repulsive to one's nose, then it means there's something wrong with you,you said you smoke tobacco? isn't that repulsive also?I just feel bad with the smell of of tobacco cigarretes and beedis
>>533844565I never found it too offensive even before I did but it really does depend, what counts for Cannabis in this country is truly repulsive, your strains are wild-type so aren't repulsive and are naturalpilled.
>>533844565It's basically A1 vs A2 milk the difference between British Skunk vs Indian Ganja and Bhang.
>>533845019>all good things in life are wild and free
>>533845664True... I heard Black Turmeric is getting rarer due to harvesting exceeding growing, I think the biopiracy thing is a meme to keep Indian farmers in pocket but at the same time this harms species if wild species/types aren't protected from local overexploitation, this is just my opine though.
>>533846258oh about this blue turmeric - the ones growing here are not really black, but simply light blue. They taste like mint and somewhat bitter. They grow all over the place so the over-harvested/rare ones are really DARK blue like in your picture?
>>533846575they also have a taste of that ilaichi (cardomom) outer husk, similar taste and feel
>>533846575I think they are called Black Turmeric because of the dried powder being a blackish colours. What I said previously I am steadfast against patenting wild plants but the "biopiracy" thing could be used against legitimate people who want to develop new varieties from wild-types.
>>533846670I heard they were very strong in taste, I want to replicate the Mango taste of amada in my hybrid but give it more medical benefit and a slight camphoraceous taste of caesia too.
>>533846914> slight camphoraceousyes that is a good word, since I have both green and blue (and big fat aromatica ) growing, ready to sprout out from the land as the rainy season approaches, I will help you in any way in this matter. Cheers friend.
>>533847491No worries friend I hope to purchase from eBay (Unironically a good place to get roots). Much thanks for the offer of help. Apologies to Indian Farmers for my potential besmirchment, seems like the biopiracy thing is a contentious topic with valid concerns for proponents and critics. A foreign couple were arrested in Sri Lanka recently for taking specimens of Insects from a national park, I think personally the couple should've made a consultation before doing so because that would've been the polite thing to avoid allegations of poaching.
>>533848079yeah I don't want to be like them Farmers who are consumed by commercialism, I am more "do nothing farmer"
>>533849250It's always best a balance in my opine, I like to keep myself busy yet I follow a slow and deliberate life all the same. It would be nice to create a new Turmeric though and sell all over the world, most humbly, lots of Indians in my area so potential to make good business.
