Excellent and thank you for the heads up. It is much appreciated. I have many projects many years in the making so if this takes several years to have some nice specimens then that is just fine by me. Order placed.

There are two cactis commonly called a blue torch I have both 
I also have a very mature queen of the night , she flowerd four times in one summer two years ago and has not bloomed sense but man we’re they a sight to see.
Poots is a cactis store near me and they sell some really impressive cactis good prices. They had giant monstrose San Pedro’s I wish I would have gotten one , if they have any left j might have to this spring but I really want a mutant Peruvian or that four winds Bolivian

If you’re hanging with nefrella, I know you’re good people. It’s so cool seeing OG at work. I’ve been here almost a year, but it still makes me smile every time.

Hey I have a question. I have some cacti that I don’t know what it is. It looks a lot like that piece you sent to the Cat Lady (hehe) but is there a telltale sign you have the hallucinogenic cactus? Like maybe how many ‘star tips’ it would have in a cross section cut? And if you had the wrong kind and prepared for ingesting would it hurt you? Or just not do anything?

Post pics is the easiest way to identify. Its really hard to say otherwise.
There are a bunch of cacti species that are active with mescaline, and some like the false peyotes that have other active alkaloids that haven’t been researched much. Conversly there are some that can make you sick, or just do nothing.

Yeah I am interested in what hallucinogenics can do for a bad case of PTSD. I have been dealing with it since I was a child. I was in a situation with my stepmother who was a really bad person. My brother and I were subject to torture daily. For no apparent reason. And I don’t mean just spankings. Think broom handle broke over the back, whipped with an extension curd. Made to kneel on hardwood floor with arms extended straight out for hours on end. Bad juju. Anyways. I have heard hallucinogenic can be a blessing for PTSD.

First disclaimer, my knowledge is mostly about mushrooms.
Well, I think they can be used to that effect in either the proper therapist setting, or with a trip guide thats there to help you specifically, and understands that your going to probably break down and have a “bad trip” to help you with your ptsd. I honestly never had either to help, and started using them to deal with my own abuse through trial and error.
I personally believe there aren’t bad trips, just underlying things that are terrifying when you are forced to face them unfiltered and amplified. Thats why people are always talking about set and setting. If your in the right mind set, and a comfortable place with people you trust, your much less likely to get into that rhetorical cyclical thinking.
But if your trying to use them as the medicine they can be, then I would start low. Your going to want someone sober that you implicitly trust around you as your guide. Id say start with around 2 grams of dried mushrooms in a dim room with gentle, relaxing music. Just let your mind wander… if that goes well, try again with a higher dose a month later (so your brain chemistry can reset). The key is remembering what you thought about and incorporating that into your life.
You will hit a point where your in what looks like a bad time. Crying, maybe rolling around or wrapping up tight in a blanket… thats where I find that your truly dealing and thinking about these deep-seated issues and facing them instead of being able to put those thoughts aside. Your literally and metaphorically fighting your inner demons at this point. Its terrifying and relieving at the same time.
My usual dose is 6-9g depending on the species, and the majority of the time I end up in this state.
People often talk about mushrooms being teachers, and what insight they bring, but you have to remember to incorporate it, or its a lost lesson.
To wrap up, be safer than I was when I was learning and have a trip sitter. And go slow. Build up, remember therapy is a process, not a one and done thing.

Is mescaline similar? This is one reason I am so interested. I have anger issues and would love to deal with them. I believe they come from childhood experiences also.
I’m sorry you had to go through that. It seems to me like you are a really cool guy in spite of it.

Pardon my bad typing.
I have only taken mesc once when I was about 19, and it was in a party atmosphere, so I don’t have a good answer to that question. It was in conjunction with ecstasy, so I don’t consider it a real representation of what mescaline is.

Thanks for saying so Badger. I try to not let my shitty childhood affect personal relationships. But saying that also means all that shit stays bottled up inside.
I am happy to say that both my brother and I have grown up to be as ‘good’ of guys as there is. We are best friends as well as brothers. We get together and discuss our past and that seems to help quite a bit. Never forgiven, never forgotten.

I agree 100% I say it often, there are no bad trips only difficult trips. But the difficult ones often result in the greatest personal growth. A sitter is a great idea in a therapy setting or for people who are not very experienced or who are apprehensive of taking a journey alone. Personally I enjoy flying solo occasionally, especially if I really want to focus on something in particular that I need to work out. But at least having another person around is obviously the safest. Somebody who you can be 110% yourself in front of

Thats why I titled it sacred cacti! Because these are tools nature has given us to help with our innerselves…
Otherwise it’d be like “pokey cactus fun time” lolol
