hey guys, some of you might be interested in a few of these pics, im not sure of there names but there cool plants/ferns. one of them is 100+ years old, my great grandma planted it. and yes i know they could be cleaned up/trimmed abit but i just dont have the time
so this is the 100+ year old plant, i think it could be a fern?
and then theres this one, dunno what it is
now finally, this is the palm, we had some big storms here and another tree fell on 3 of them and kinda snapped them, they wont support themself. they are starting to look really sad, im thinking about taping/tying them up? thanks guys

And yea that Palm looks pretty shitty man, my parents used to grow Foxtale palms and sell the seeds. During Cyclone season some of them would get fucked up, hammer in a decent post beside it and tie it up, and if there is gonna be any more serious weather try to shield it from the winds
And yea man for sure, I would love some free Cycad seeds , they are about the size of a golf ball and brown from memory, should be dangling like balls from below the leaves

Hit up Bunnings or Mitre 10 and look for some hardcore Palm food. We used to fertilize them every 1-2months with some pellet food and they loved it, but we were up in the N.T so I dunno

Yea it was kinda awkward when I got my shit for my grow at Bunnings. I go there alot so they all kinda know my face, and I rocked up to the cashier with 160W in CFL's, 10x2-4's some plywood and a bunch of soil, coco, perlight and nutes. The chick that served me was hot as shit and we have talked a bit before but when I went to pay she was almost laughing right in my face
