Human remains have been found inside the stomach of a 14-foot-long (4.2 meters) crocodile on an island north of Queensland, Australia. According to local authorities, the remains likely belong to Andrew Heard, a 69-year-old fisherman who went missing from the area on Feb. 11.

Heard was last seen that Thursday afternoon when he left his yacht on Hinchinbrook Island (close to the coast of northeastern Australia) in a small fishing dinghy, according to the Australian Broadcasting Corporation (ABC) news site. When he failed to return that night and stopped responding on his radio, Heard's wife called the authorities.

His dinghy was found capsized early Friday morning (Feb. 12), showing damage indicative of a crocodile attack.

On Friday night, investigators discovered human remains in the area; the next day, they found the gigantic croc nearby, according to the Queensland government. Environmental authorities euthanized the croc and cut it open, revealing more human remains in its guts.

These Yanks that come to this Aussie Forum ... Wal, d'you think we should make them Honorary Cobbers? And if so: what sort of initiation should they undergo?

I think you Aussies should make them eat a jar of Vegemite by the spoonful while chugging XXXX and simultaneously doing a burnout in a VH Commodore.

Wal ... am wondering how often you apply the high K kelp? As you said the Z99 is getting chunky very quickly ... but don't know if more K is better ... ? Soil is still very rich.

no its a cutting nevil selected , c5 ,
crossed with some inbred mango haze shanti had in order to try and find something similar to c5 in seed form for myself to grow where i live ,
the cutting wasnt properly suited ...



i do recall mango weed where i am though , last i saw was in around 2002-04 ,
i had only 1 seed left and managed to keep the plant and some cuts alive a few years , but eventually lost it ,
most of the mango here was more of a unripe mango aroma ,

and we suspect its origins were in thailand ....


i grew some tom hills haze around the time i still had that mango and found them very similar in smell and look ...

 

[TheDarkStorm]

Donald you guys have got access to the ecsd....do you know if its the old ecsd that kind of seems to be vere rare maybe even lost or the ibl version most of the guys are using to make seeds now ? Thanks

hey mate long time since we last spoke ! i lost my old account and password and had some bad things happen years back lost all my genetics and gave it all break for a bit .. anyways back on te forums again i will send you a pm with my old username when i can send pm's again eh...

as for the mango i was told in the 80s and 90s it was in grafton and central queensland. prolly the same strain good day to you sir

 

[Guest]

Thanks Cobra! I boosted it a bit late with some super compost from nutri tech. Any Molasses with rejuvenate the compost ... or rather the bacteria in the compost. Might have good results.

The heads are beginning to frost now ... very quick plant and it's been flowering for a while now. Will post a pic.
20mm rain last night ... it's been a while ... lovely and fresh and sparkly on this morning's walk

its the one folks refer to as the chaco cut , he had it years back so its definitely not a new thing , as far as i know its "the" ecsd ...

ive had it probably 5 years ...

off topic , been thinking quite alot about wild native cannabis in general , how it self seeds .. and survives without man watering it. now i have tried this with european and american genetics with well preped soil only to have slow stunted plants grow small , depending on what stage they were put out from anywhere between seed to young plant in veg at 1ft in height the outcome was always different.depending on the enviroment , soil etc and locations i have experimented with. i have had some good results with some unknown aus strains from up northn nsw using permaculture layering techniques and putting them out at 1ft plus in a week of rainy conditions to let the roots settle in, with no other watering.im curious if hybridization is the downfall in all this , of course taking into account enviromental factors play a big part. but on the other hand genetics plays a huge roll. from seed to finish in all native soil with no prior amendments is hard but doable.ive seen 6-10 fters planted in 5ltr pots with the bottoms cut out grow with no water besides rain, although they did reach the water table and grown by a river bank. sometimes i dream about wild canna growing here. anyone have that old article about it florishing in the hunter valley long time ago. anyho just my thoughts for the day. got a whole bunch of ruderalis indian seed thinking of putting a whole bunch here and there with a no till style for an experiment to see what happens. theres quite a big gap between having plants you can tend to on a daily/weekly basis, and "gorilla growing" im particular speaking about coastal gorilla growing. very rocky , sandy , heavy loam clay soils. anyone ever planted in a bush turkey mound ? they make great compost and soil. loaded full of worms. been collecting seaweed and letting it break down naturally in the coastal bush let it get rained on a few times to clean off excess salt water, and trying out oyster shells smashed up with a rock for calcium turns to a nice fine power.
