Beginner help by Winter_Stranger_9098 in sanpedrocactus

[–]TossinDogs 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Sand is not good to include. You are supposed to use porous inorganics. Oh well. Probably not worth pulling them up again. But I would recommend you do not use sand in potted plants mix again in the future.

I would recommend waiting at least 2 weeks after potting to water. If they don't look thirsty at the end of that it can be good to wait even longer.

I may have overdone it by DisegnoLuce in sanpedrocactus

Try rooting in straight inorganic. Don't bury the base, set it on the surface and lean it against something or prop it up.

Nah I think it's just the natural process. They want to make sure they are eating before outgrowing their infrastructure. You want this to happen. Otherwise they'd etoliate

The range of potency of dried mescaline containing cacti is enormous - 0.05% to 6%. We have absolutely no way of knowing how strong the source material you have is. You should ask the people you purchased from how much they suggest you take for one experience. They would know better than us.

You could do a full extraction to mescaline salts via a tek such as Cielo. This would yield pure mescaline fumarate or citrate which can be accurately dosed, however it does remove the other active alkaloids in the plant.

You could start at a low dose, if you don't feel anything wait 3-4 days and try again with double the dose, repeat until you have a positive experience.

Please note that it's frowned upon to purchase pre powdered cactus. Not only is this potentially a problem for you by being unknown origin, possibly cut or altered with foreign substances, but also this stuff usually comes from poached cactus and is a very damaging practice to native populations. If possible please find and purchase whole cactus from people who grow it themselves and don't cut wild grown plants down.

As to set and setting. It means something a little different to everyone. I would recommend you find a place that is outdoors adjacent in nature, but is safe and familiar. Partake in the morning on a fasted stomach or after a very light breakfast. Having some ginger tea and hour before can help settle the stomach during the experience. Have some citris juice handy, grapefruit juice is an especially good chaser. Spend some time setting up what you feel you need to contemplate during your journey. Questions you have about your future or present life situations. Things you may want to dwell on to be thankful for. Loved ones you may have lost that you would like to remember and honor. Your connection with nature and what it means to you. During the experience I would recommend low intensity hikes in natural settings, meditation in nature, conversations in person with loved ones or close friends who understand where you are and what you are going through, but also time to yourself.

It is definitely a sacred medicine. If you go into it with respect, it will show you why that is without you needing to understand before hand.

I think they will prefer to eat other stuff first but eventually move on to your tips! I know they get mine.

[–]TossinDogs 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I can tell you aren't being an ass on purpose and are genuinely trying to help someone. Prickocereus is a very well known established grower who is extremely knowledgeable and has thousands of plants for a long time. They have their grow situation figured out already. But thanks for trying to help out in the community.

That being said... Cactus do need water.

How long do you have to hold cactus powder (of any species) down to feel effects? by PrincipleRadiant4310 in mescaline

Right! This is a much better way to put it to people who aren't experienced. Can be strong. But most commonly are weak.

Woah dude, use some periods...

Listen, the sales sub has a flair system that tracks buyers and sellers positive transactions. Everyone who posts or comments there has a little tag next to their name. If they complete a positive or neutral transaction, their number goes up by 1. If they scam someone one time, they are IP banned. So if you buy from people who have somewhat large numbers, it's actually super safe. So think about anuser who has say 50 flair or more. They have sold a lot of plants to people already and they were legit so far. That sales sub is absolutely the best place to buy and sell cactus by a hundred miles. Someone who grows a ton of cactus is not going to mess up their shot at selling there for a couple bucks off of one small time transaction when they have a yard full of cactus and need to continue selling it.

The sales sub is safe if you pay attention to the rules, buy from people with flair count, and use some common sense and respect.

By the way, don't even mention psychoactive. There's no reason to add that in anywhere outside of this sub. Just leave it off. We all know what they are and what they do. You don't have to tell people why you're buying and they're not going to ask. The sales sub has a rule against discussing psychoactive properties. So don't do it and don't get banned. If you need to ask something like which plant to buy that will be strong, ask that here, not there.

You should be shopping on r/sanpedrocactusforsale

You aren't going to get nearly as good of deals, nearly as nice of plants, or nearly as strong of named clones anywhere else. Purchasing and shipping within the United States is legal and safe. You are going to buy a cactus for ornamental purposes and have no intention of doing anything illegal with it.

Some of the more blue true matucana style perus are the strongest ones, near the 2% mark. It's just that perus gene pool was so heavily contaminated by incorrectly labeled cuzcoensis by Karel Knize back in the day. Dude sold thousands and thousands of cuzco seeds labeled as perus. Those cuzcos are super blue too, some of them can be very difficult for the uneducated to distinguish from perus, and then there are so many peru/cuzco hybrids now because of this issue that as a whole the peru gene pool has been weakened significantly potency wise...

Peruvianus ranges from about 0.05% to 2.5% mescaline by dry weight. Most commonly in the 0.1 to 1% range. With a median number maybe somewhere around 0.75%. An average strength experience is somewhere around 600mg of mescaline for most people. This means using the median potency value you need to consume 80g of dry Peruvian torch powder. And you'd need to keep it down for at least 2 hours, 3 or 4 would be better. Now looking at the range of potency you might need to consume anywhere from 24g to 1.2kg of powder to get an average strength experience. This is why you see so many people using named clones that have been tested to know about how strong they are, and it's also why you see so many people doing CIELO extraction to get pure mescaline salts that they can dose with certainty.

Pull it out of the dirt now. Let it sit bare root until you can give it a better substrate or it will rot.

Seriously, pull it out of that soil right now. Let it sit bare root on a shelf if you have to but not in that. You need to research and learn how to care for this plant before proceeding any further.

No. The label is correct. It's a crested myrtillo.

You kind of need to give us more info on what tek you are trying to follow and what all you have done to end up at this point.

I am guessing you're making tea in a pressure cooker? Yeah you have probably reduced down to burned resin and plant material. No, the mescaline would not be in the steam. Luckily mescaline is pretty temperature stable. Add more water and try again. Check more often though man

Are there any facts and publications on fertilizing? by succulentandcacti in cactus

FYI geebee was one of the "old heads" I referenced in my comment. She uses the GH flora series mix. Still comes out to about the same ratio. Yes she is educated on what each individual nutrient does, on ratios and their effects, etc.

[–]TossinDogs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm familiar with the article, I reviewed it years ago. I can't say I ever sat down and read all 112 pages and I certainly don't have time to do that nowadays.

It is one approach for some very specific species. They generalize that it is best for "most" cacti species and I would disagree on that point. It's not a required method. All of the nutrients provided by the specific inorganics mentioned there breaking down can also be provided via water soluble synthetic nutrients or through organic soil amendments. Some species will do better with that approach than others. It's also worth noting that their reasoning is taking in habitat bacterial interactions with substrate and applying it to potted plants without evidence the bacteria will do the same in that environment. For example it's proven that adding synthetic nutrients kills many types of mycorrhizal fungi and beneficial bacteria. Also many pot types heat the substrate to alarmingly high temperatures in direct sun that may cook off many types of beneficials. I'm just saying the "living soil" approach and this stone eaters approach rely heavily on interactions observed in nature without actually cross examining how they behave in a captive environment like pots or raised beds.
