A bathroom tires and a peyote thread? How many threads does a man need?

i tried searching the forum but when you have a username of @lophophora.ca it skews the results a tad, making it impossible to search for relevant information. i tried the way you exclude a username from reddit using the <-author:lophophora.ca> but it gave no results with no way to tell if it didn’t find any or if there were none to find. now time to try the lazy way and just ask. but at least i tried this time. thanx in advance.

You can check out my thread for some basic seed starting information.
If you have specific questions there are some pretty handy cacti growers here.

and if there is a kind of back up you sure will find what you search!

I’m curious if anyone knows or can speak from experience,
how strong is the emetic (vomiting) effect of peyote compared to san pedro?
as an overall experience, which is more gentle on the body?
I’ve had a low dose of san pedro before, only enough for a mild visual effect and altered perspective. didn’t have any nauseau or negative side effects.

i would say its nearly the same. the bitter substances are hard to keep in from both plants and it hard to judge which is more demanding on the body. but i can say they are both not tasty 
i don’t want to be a moral apostle! but if someone wants to eat (try) peyote. Grow them yourself!! don´t go to the habitat and fetch them from there.
try some grafting! you will be amazed how fast a lophophora can grow! and i promise you growing them is more fun than eat drink or extract them.

I’m not going to ingest either of these plants. I’m just intrigued by their traditional medicinal use, and how that works given that they are both pretty hard on the body.

thats good to hear ! not like i tought you do. so hope you feel not offended!.
this like a routin when people ask about peyote. normaly cacti growers are allergic againt this kind of questions. and itś hard to get good contacts because most of the grows (here in my country) think your are a phsychonauts and cut you of. sounds strange, i guess, but that is what i experienced back in the 2000 befor landing on thenook! that was a gamechanger for me

These were cultivated for many years at Tenerife, before they were shipped to the European mainland.
