PD. Posted May 31, 2007 Just a note from Arizona - Hundreds of species of cacti contain various quantities of mescaline or other alkaloids, consumption of which has effects similar to LSD and/or other recreational drugs. All species and varietas in the genus Lophophora are best known as peyote and mescal and are in greatest demand by those who intend to use it as a recreational drug. It is not illegal to sell, grow and posses the seeds or plants but because I am aiming to supply cactus hobbyists with seeds for growing the plants, not for eating them, I reserve the right to refuse to sell the seeds of the mescal bearing cacti, where I suspect that the plants will be grown for consumption as a recreational drug. In the past I had orders for seeds of nothing but mescaline bearing cacti. These were declined. There are only two species in the genus Lophophora (with numerous varietas) and it would be an odd cactophile interested in one genus with two species only. This year’s list offers seeds of both species and many varietas. For each packet of Lophophora seeds ordered I would expect at least three packets of other seeds in the order. The biggest reason for this restriction is the fact that the genus Lophophora is classified by Australian Quarantine & Inspection Services as a weed and thus a prohibited import.

Μορφέας Posted May 31, 2007 (edited) great thread ACE, didnt urban tribes shutdown or something? last time i was there they had zero stock and the website looked really wonky.. Also Steffen who runs Earthalchemy.net has a great variety of seeds Edited May 31, 2007 by Tepa Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tonic Posted May 31, 2007 (edited) Very handy thread Ace Might be a good idea to take Urban Tribes off the list for now. While they have not exactly shut down, they are relocating to a larger property and the website isn't selling stock at the moment. Should be back soon I hope. Maybe put it back up when thet are back in action? I went to a 'chop your own sale' a while back now and got some great cacti from them, the sale was to reduce stock for the move and am presuming to make a bit of money too LOL Edited May 31, 2007 by Phosphene_Dream Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
