People get Medal's of Honor for murder and I'd get thrown in prison for planting some cacti. LMAO. This world really is fucked.

Topsy-Turvy to be sure.

Parks & Rec Ranger (or whatever they're named) : "Sir, put down the trowel and back away from the plants"
Crypt: "But officer, I only aim to replenish the population of these ndangered cacti and restore these sacred lands to their original bountiful colonies. Due to overharv...."
P&RR: BLAM! "Suspect down."
Poor Crypt: "Gurgle... Hey.. this is exactly like DMT..."

LOL, of course i was basing it upon a living cadaver.

But, now that I reread that post, it's in pretty bad taste. Apologies Crypt.. shouldn't joke about things like that. Retracted.

It's only in bad taste if you meant it to be in bad taste.

hey guys, new here. been reading up on extracting mesc myself (on top of the other world of information ive been led to on RIU, thanks to all). seems pretty simple. just wondering if anyone knows if you can use the powdered cacti on evil-bay sold as incense? didnt know if this was pure powdered cacti or theres anything added into it that i'd want to stay away from.

Hey doc! Welcome, and Enjoy Your Stay!
I've used powdered Peruvian Torch for making some brew, not for extraction myself, but absolutely the powder can be used to perform one though.
And I wouldn't worry about any additives in the 'incense'. If its from a decent vendor, it will be powdered green flesh and pure.

Enjoy, my Brother.. ENJOY, BE OPEN and LEARN

Sure you can use dried cactus, thing is you have little guarantee you get what you ordered.
I never got why someone (who has access to fresh cactus) would dry it first and then do the extraction though, but perfect for mail order.

Perhaps the extraction is a little easier when they are dried? (not talking from experience, just a conjecture)

No, it isn't any easier when they are dried. The dried stuff still has that muck that binds everything into an unworkable mess. I recently read a tech that included baseifying the water before mixing it with the powder. This is touted to reduce the slime factor. I have yet to try it, but if it is true, then we finally have the break through we have needed to extract from peruvianus and the like. I have worked the process with the smaller cacti and it works perfectly so there is no reason why, given a technique for dealing with the slime, it shouldn't work equaly well.

Thanks for the tips! It does seem nice to not have to deal with skinning the plants and everything. Not to mention I wont have to order a huge ass box of cacti lol... But ill definitely google the process of basifying the water. worth the research anyways. If and when I go through with it you'll all hear about it.

Another question before I start buying a shitload of mesc. Well two questions, Whats a good vendor first off? The pre owdered stuff sounds nice

Also, whats the tolerance deal with mescaline? I have read that people who regularly use mescaline have ver happy and enjoyable lives. Thats what I'm aiming for. How often do those users do mescaline? And how is the tolerance to it? Obviously I cant do enough really to gain any tolerance, but I am going to order some seeds too and have a nice little family growing.

How should I grow them? I dont have a grow room and I live in an apartment. On the window sill?

there are many forums dedicated to growing cacti, a small 1 gallon aquarium with a glass lid to seal in humidity would be great for the first year or so, or maybe some tubs with seethrough lids that seal well. Soil absolutely has to be sterilised to avoid fungus gnats etc. which will eat all your seedlings. Haveing a small growlight cfl wont hurt, just don't cook them. Cacti originated in forrests that no longer exist, these provided the shelter to nurse seedlings into adulthood. The large cacti dotting the horizons of the america's will not be there in the future because of this. Mesc is fun, but i've never heard of a mescaline addict, the material is too scarce and its medicinal qualities and high level of stimulation, kinda makes you call some offtime automaticaly. As with all of these drugs, once you get the message, put the phone down.

i think they grow abit like shrooms i know u need special cactus dirt and special fert and i know that in the bigining stage of peyote it needs to be covered with saran wrap.

Start with sprites or cuttings, seeds take too long. Don't treat them the way you think cactus should be treated, with little water and super sandy soil. Use well drained rich soil and water them every few days in the summer and once a week in the winter. They like sunlight but it doesn't have to be full sun. If you treat them right they will grow 5 or 6 inches a year. Beyond that, if you get sprites like in the first picture (look at the ittty bitty little guys) you can take them when they are large enough and simply set them in soil, they will take root and grow - all of these are from a single cutting taken many years ago. I use them for ornamentals now, having "hung up the phone" on this form of enlightenment.



Tolerance goes up astronomicly, but after the initial experiences wear off you don't need to take this substance but once or twice a year anyway

If you mean seedlings, then kinda, need sterile soil with good drainage (nice coarse sand), but when they are established big cacti they like good soil with plenty nutrients.

Hi, I'm sort of new to RIU but I like to read up and learn from experienced people. I recently bought seeds from iamshaman and planted half of them in pearlite peat mixture to make sure it stays moist and drains well. Its been 1 week and still waiting. If anyone follows this thread still and has ever tried rockwool it would be nice to know.

I'm also buying cactus soil this weekend and planting them there and grow them along my cannabis with the gas lantern method

even if its legal, your never going to find it in home depot, loewes or any other spot like that.. there are a few online stores that sell either cuts or whole plants, but they can take years and years to grow enough for you to do anything even remotely useful with..

I realize how old this post is, but i got all 4 of my T. pachanoi cacti at Home Depot. All of them worked just fine.

I thought I had a post saying the same thing. You just gotta get a p. Torch and they're clearly labeled
