    foolish gnome-overacidic brew?

    out of curiossity, are some acid salts absorbed better than others? i dont know anything about this but i would have thought that salts from hydrochloric acid would be better (than suphates citrates acetates etc.) because thats what weve got in out stomachs. does anyone know about this?

    whats the story?

    thanks for the suggestions peeps! yeah, my first thought was nutrient deficeny of some sort, but i really do try to take care of this before it gets to be a problem (too much or little), but ill definately give the dynamic lifter a shot. the orchid mulch *is* defficent in pretty much everything (consists mainly of fine pine bark, rice husks and limestone chips), i just add some to the mix to keep it open for spieces that require extra drainage. also when the bark starts to decompose a bit and get spongy, roots grow right through it. actually i think you maybe onto something with the pot size, i feel this spieces would be much much happier in the ground, but im moving house soon so its going to have to put up with the pot for a little longer. thanks again for all your help.

    whats the story?

    the area around the veins is dark green, its the other parts of the leaves that are yellowish, all leaves are affected. native orchids are my original plant vice and i know with these that yellowish leaves can indicate lack nitrogen which is why i tried fertilising with aquasol, but i didnt overdose them which i know is bad (i thought MGs were heavy feeders anyway?). also, the mix is free draining (i add sharp sand and orchid mulch to standard potting mix), so they shouldnt have wet feet. admittedly i do piss a fair bit on my plants (theyre begging for it i tells ya :D ) so maybe this doesnt agree with the MGs. as for the setting seed stage, i guess this is possible, but the plants are so small. i would have liked them to concentrate on building up some size before flowering, but they went ahead and did it anyway. babies having babies, i blame myself, but i tried to bring them up right...

    whats the story?

    can anyone help me with my morning glories? i planted some I violacea probably about sept/oct last year. they came up quickly and seemed to be healthy at the time, but since then they have failed to thrive (growing only about 20cm in the last few months). the leaves are mottled with yellowish patches and look 'sick'. the potting mix is well drained, ive tried feeding with high nitogen food and they get plenty of light but nothing seems to have worked. any suggestions??

    purple pills

    for me the problem with mde is the short peak, not neccessarily the amount you have to take. the mdma peak is short enough, any less and i feel like i have to race against time to actually make taking it at all worth while in the first place (who wants to be left stranded half way through a set? id rather take nothing or get a decent stretch). for me increasing the dose or redosing simply isnt a practical way to increase the length, because rather than increasing the length, it changes the nature of the experience giving that intoxicated 'stoned' feeling that im also not really a fan of. plus stacking peaks makes me burnt out the day after. for these reasons, im not a fan of this material.

    sounds like mde to me, ive heard different things about mde, but for a known gnome the experience was pretty much as described: similar feel to mdma, short peak (1.5-2hrs), redosing is a waste of time. consensus: waste of time, forget these pills.
  9. after reading this i checked the archives for anything else you wrote and found the CD store adventure. nice work on both counts!

    i know it's not ethnobotanical but...

    i think blausaure (blue acid) is hydrogen cyanide, although the poison from name of the rose is arsenic.

    Best legal high???

    no need to harvest your own or loiter around public toilets waving large denomination bills at minors : http://www.whattheheck.com/ebay/cleanpee.html yeti~ there is no test for salvinorin, the standard drug test screens for opiates, coke, amphetamines, pot and pcp. some drugs may cause a false positive test (eg poppy seeds for opiates, ketamine for pcp). because salvinorin is structurally unrelated to other illicit drugs and effective in such small doses it will not cause false positives for other substances.

    so I had to stop eating chocolate all together (not as hard as you might think after a few gallons of chocolate flavored vomit and numerous hours of rolling around on the floor in a fits of pain induced delirium (I've inhaled tear gas and potentially lethal corrosive fumes that were far more bearable than chocolate). weirdo!

    alternatively carry a bottle of unadulterated child piss to work every day. you could even store it in the company fridge. be sure to label it 'apple juice'.

    heya mally, drug tests are something that really gets up my nose (heheh), alcohol has to be responsible for more work related accidents/slackness than an other drug. to answer your question though, many of the plants dicussed here arent a great way to get high, theres a number of reasons for that: some are difficult to get (or require time for cultivation), others are difficult to consume (either volume of material required, manky taste or nauseating side effect), most have non-mainstream effects (ie, can blow your nut off or conversely be extremely subtle). finally many people consider the plants disscussed here deserve a certain degree of respect rather than simply being used as a quick way to get mashed. also it is worth pointing out that while many plants are legal to grow, preparing and consuming drugs from them is not. so as far as highs go i think many of illegal substances have more to offer than the plants here, because they are often cheaper, easier to aquire, prepare and take, and have a straight forward effects (not that i recommend illegal drug use since illegal drugs are illegal). Of the legal drugs i think that alcohol is the most versatile. of the natural hallucinogens, LSA, mescaline, and psilocybin are probably the most accesible. However, these drugs are illegal in many parts of the world, and where this is the case should not be consumed. where legal, gather as much info as possible on dosage effects and side effects (theres a good chance LSA and mesc will make you sick). DXM has been enjoyed recreationally, im not sure of the legal status but it is not routinely screened for (although there is mixed evidence that it may cause false positives for both PCP and opiates in high doses). LSD and ketamine are illegal in many places (and shouldnt be taken where this is the case) but not routinely screened for (k may cause false positives for PCP). im pretty sure there are other disscussions around this topic if you check the archives, hope you found some of this useful, and good luck.
