Re: New Kind of Spam
is it possible to only let a member have a signature after they have had a reasonable amount of posts.
Also have a report as spam function so that if say, 10 members dislike a post for being spam its automatically deleted and the spammer executed.
Probably easier said than done though.

Re: Sick cacti
they must have been like Andy Dufresne coming out of the "can" in the shawshank redemption.
Tell me, will they get their colour back?
I had a euphorbia enopla that had sprouted lots of new stems but they all look shrivelled and dead now

Re: Sick cacti
Sorry. reading back that seems a bit confusing.
They were indoors for nearly 6 months with no light and ive put them straight out into direct sunlight.

Melocactus fruits
I just bought a fairly big melocactus the other week and it has started producing fruit from the cephalium. very surprised how quickly the fruit gets pushed out, one day nothing then the next a large shiny red fruit. Id like to know if the seeds in the fruit are capable of producing more plants or a...
