Plantsoma

Thanks everyone I was able to obtain 2 cuttings off a very genourous community member, which are now growing well :D I would be interested in testing some root/root powder if any gnomes have an excess supply Dazd.

I was wondering if anyone out there has any acarus calamus (calamus root, sweet flag, ratroot), seed, root, root powder, plant, whatever for trade or sale. I have lots of seeds to trade, mostly Acacia spp. PM or email me if anyone can help. Thanks.

Illegal????? Try your local nursery. Its as common as neanderthals in parliament :D Seriously though, i've seen it in every nursery herb section i've browsed through. (NSW) Dazd

Sorry, no isopropynol at Bunnings in Newcastle. No hardware store has got it or can get it either. Isocol is the closest thing available at Woolies, but, although it lists no other ingredients, i know it is no way near pure & probably contains antiseptic or something greasy. If anyone can get this stuff hassle free, pls share the source.

Has anyone had any success with extraction of ibogaine from this plant? Does anyone have seeds from: Ervatamia orientalis (Tabernaemontana orientalis), have searched a few seed suppliers, even WA. If anyone has or can help i would be forever in their debt.

Educate, Self-medicate!

Just another reason why we shouldn't trust governments with our health & lives! The alkaloid in question can easily be obtained from many plants including Brugmansias & Daturas, so why do so many ppl just trust what they are taking when popping a pill????? Pharmaceutical profits are getting bigger and bigger, and the list of plants available to those who care to research is being dramatically reduced!!!! FUCK THOSE GREEDY PIGS!!! Look after ones self and those around.

Cartman from South Park may be after some 'semen', for his underwater sea-ciety. (-for any of you out there that may have seen SP on monday nite.)

Too Right Gomaos!!On a sensible note also: Governments probably would love it if most people saw drug use in a similar manner to this film. Sort of supports their means to persecute against 'drug' users. 'See kiddies, this is what will happen to your life if u use drugs' Although, i cant help but love the film for what it is. Fictional.

Tripitaka,I didn't get your email - could you send again please? [ 24. May 2003, 11:19: Message edited by: Dazd ]

Datura sounds interesting. I'll have some please. I have most acacias you'd be interested in, just let me know which var's. Thanks, Paul/Dazd [email protected]

I was wondering if anyone has links/texts related to Pharmacological Studies of plants in Australia. I have one excellent text released by the CSIRO : Plants For Medicines. This text deals with Alkaloid surveys on plants, concentrating on QLD and PNG rainforest areas. I have been having a lot of trouble researching more on this topic as far as the internet is concerned - there doesn't seem to be much listed online of such surveys within Australia. I'm also curious of the alkaloid: Psychotridine, which was derived from stem bark of Psychotria beccariodes (PNG). The only other info i have on this alkaloid is that it has been shown to be cytotoxic and to inhibit blood platelet aggregation. I also have a scan of the structure of this alkaloid if anyone was interested email or PM me. ? [email protected]

On the catnip note: Catnip is a powerful diaphoretic, can be used in any feverish condition, and has a sedative action on the nerves. Though lacking detailed chemical research, catnip works both as a mild CNS (central nervous system) stimulant and relaxant in clinical settings. It is presumed that the effect is due to the nepetelactone, which has a similar chemical structure to valepotriates (the sedative principle of valerian). As a carminative with antispasmodic properties, catnip eases stomach upsets, dyspepsia, flatulence and colic. Chemical Constituents: Essential oil (carvacrol, citronellal, geraniol, nepetol, nepetelactone, pulegone, thymol), iridoids, tannins.

I'll take some! I have most acacia spp. to trade and various other seeds. email or PM me for trade. [email protected]

I was wondering if anyone in this community lived in the Newcastle/Hunter area? It would be great to meet and trade plants etc. I have an excess supply of plants and seeds ATM. Thanks. [email protected]

I have this classic on CD in AVI format. Viewable on DivX etc, from you computer, if anyone was interested?

Could anyone enlighten me on the legalities of 5meoDMT and DMT in the various states of Australia? Thanks.

I think i can help. Several species of acacia and eucalypt do well in arid conditions. I have many varieties of acacia in fair quantities and many other Australian natives. I also have some native wildflower you may be interested in? Email me and let me know what sort of quantity and how many different varieties you would like and we'll go from there!

I have had some ant problems and read that crushing pennyroyal (mint family) leaves and sprinkling around keeps them away. I tried it and it seems to keep the ants away from my plant pots. Im not sure if this can help your soil problem, but a natural solution based on this might work with some more experimenting.

I will hopefully have a few different colour varieties of Brugmansia seeding at a friends house in the coming season, will let you know!

very muchly interested! check your email!

I have Pandorea jasminoides seed to trade for anything of interest! Email or PM me! [email protected] [ 22. April 2003, 18:58: Message edited by: Dazd ]

I would love some Khat seeds. My last lot had really low germination rate, and near no success. I have to trade seeds from any Acacia species, (apart from A. phlebophylla) and also various other varieties. Email or PM me! [email protected] [ 22. April 2003, 23:24: Message edited by: Dazd ]
