Reading this actualy inspired me to pull out some seed that i had lying around.

Just treated some Acacia suaveolens, and Acacia longifolia, with some boiling water. I'll give it 24-30 hours, and see if they swell...

Just good ol' aussie natives, they're pretty snazzy in my books,but if im pickin up wat ur putin down some of the acacias native to OZ (not these ones unfortunatley) do contain an extractable amount of DMT.

Speaking Aus natives with DMT, Acacia madenii is in flower, so seeds will be here soon, going to grow me a forest of that shit.

sounds good, not to keen on the coastal wattles tho, bit of a weed where i live just spent the last 2 days clearing wattles, tea trees, dead stuff for the fire season

My advice with Australian seeds is to roast them in an open fire for a few hours, run over them repeatedly with a 4 wheel drive, let them soak in muddy water for three weeks and then put them on top of flat rocks in full sun to germinate. bongsmilie
