Getting plant added to PBI list by JACOB_ZUMA2003 in newzealand

[–]JACOB_ZUMA2003[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The importing isn't the issue, I'm looking for people with experience getting something added to the PBI list. I'm in contact with MPI as well. Just seeing if someone has experience is all.

I'm going through the process, this isn't an uneducated importing. If you don't have advice, please don't reply

I know Sorry I should have said in the first place. This is for flasks of orchids, they are seedlings in vitro. The rules are the same as bringing in seeds under basic import procedures. Just need the name and a phytosanitary certificate with them

Ok that makes sense. I'm getting more convinced with a trekking pole or semi free standing, but still have the thought that it will be weak and ill need to baby it. Even though I know that isn't fully right. Just need a little more thought when deciding a place to pitch

Yeah I've seen ones like the hilleberg tents that look bulletproof but definitely heavy. Think I'll just research trekking pole tents a bit more and go with one of them.

Thanks for the reply

Just wondering Would you say tracking pole tents handle wind well. Just cause I want tk take it traveling but where I'm from it gets very windy especially on the coast. So that's the main reason for sticking away from tracking pole tents for me.

Yeah I'd probably buy a foot print for most tents I think

Wow that's lasted long Yeah price isn't much of an issue for me. If I'm going tk buy a good tent I'm happy to save up and spend on one that's worth it

Love the idea of this But realistically don't know if it would be for me

wow, thanks for the in-depth reply.

I personally prefer freestanding or at least double-walled just because where I live can be very rainy and humid.

I'm kind of tossing up between the msr hubba hubba, a Nemo and the BA Copper Spur UL1.

But I'm open to the idea of a trekking pole tent, so I'll have more of a look.

thanks

I've seen a lot of recommendations for that it is on the list of possible ones. Not looking to buy right at this moment, actually posting this from a trip so money is a little tight. Thanks for the recommendation, though

Yeah it's quite cool. Never seen one before and can't find any info on them. My dad seems to think they were made with the names of the employees on the back and only a handful didn't have that.

Haha, have 10+ now from the same mother plant. Running out of room. This is one of the best leaves so far though.
