So here are my 5 peyote seedlings 3 weeks after i began hardening them off. I've been bottom-watering and they seem to respond well growing (very slowly). Anywho, here they are today ;-)

eat them now, why wait?

which brings me to a serious question.

I read somewhwere that poppy seedlings had minute amounts of morphine, so I sprouted them as I would alfalfa. Didn't work, the roots broke off when I rewettet them. Then I used wheatgrass growing methods using suretogrow mats. I got a poppy lawn and made a bitter tasting salad. It, sort of worked.

could one start hundreds of cactus and catch a buzz?

that's a good question; i don't know about the alkaloid content of seedlings...not sure about that, but it'd be sad if you did. just graft and wait a bit. you can have a few hundred baseball sized lophs rooted, alk'd and ready in a year and a half to two years...

funny thing cat. Your grafting discussion and hobby got me in a new space. The concept of distinction is big with me. Perception is s blur out of which certain things become clear based upon new distinction. I knew of grafting before, but it was in the blur if general knowlege not pertinent to me.

your posts forced the distinction of grafting. Sort of like having recently learned a new word and then noticing it being used where you never did before.

anyway..
I am a big gardener, vegied. I would rather grow tomatoes than pot.

so I was at a nursery and encountered a Cherokee purple start that was priced at fourteen bucks.

"why so much"?
"it is an heirloom grafted onto an African tomato root stock"

I had to get it

then I ordered 100 maxifort root stock seeds and about 400 silicone grafting clips.

now I got a new hobby that complements my love of tomatoes, my hatred of the soil born tomato diseases I fight with every year and a new distinction.

thank you cat if curiosity

cactusplaza sells them, but friends with plants are the way to go. once they start flowering you'll have hundreds of seeds (if you can keep from eating the amazingly delicious cotton candy tasting fruit)!

Cactusplaza no longer ships to the US per their website.

"
No Shipping to USA
CactusPlaza can ship almost anywhere but unfortunately we can not ship to the U.S.A. because some species seem to be offending there. To prevent any problems for you as a trusted customer and for us we do not ship any plants, seeds or other products to the USA. We are sorry we have to do this and hope for your understanding in this matter.
We can also not ship to Switzerland

Anyone no anywhere else to get a peyote cactus?
