    Apologies for the reddit link, I searched the NSW health page and it's terrible, couldn't find this alert, only older ones.

     

    Anyway, TLDR: punisher, SpongeBob and MyBrand stamped tabs around containing 217mg so be careful if you're in the habit of dropping multiple pies.

     

    You know what would help this situation NSW Government? Pill testing. You know, like all the recommendations from experts?

  2. Benefits of being mates with the Bangladeshi guys at work...we were talking about paan yesterday and today I turned up to find a bag of betel nuts on my desk. Need to find some way to return the favour in kind...

    i suspect a mistake by caring for this plant, they grow well even if you have to keep them inside over winter.

    i grew them in the uk, with no difficulties.

    its as well not a sensitive plant as it might be suggested, in this thread. it's a tough as hemp, and everybody that can grow hemp should be able to grow kratom...

     

    they will survive a mild frost, and i am currently searching the forum, to find posts about growers in vic, before it became illegal.

     i think this topic is very good, and somebody should move it, to were no guests or google can spy on us.

    Some varieties are much more cold tolerant than others. The red vein seems pretty sensitive.

    Openly admitting to illegally importing plants, “look at us and what we’re doing” kind of attitudes, openly advertising a website that pushes more of the “drugs” side rather than plants for growing side….sorry, but I’m one who lost a lot of respect for Liam and Fahim in this one. And can’t see it coming back…

    I'll stand shoulder to shoulder with Liam and Fahim anyday, mates are mates despite some shitty journalism casting aspersions.


  5. I was on some antidepressants in the 90s, didn't realize at the time that they were MAOI class, not SSRIs. I drank some ephedra tea and that sent me into 12 hours of the most intense migraine like headaches and nausea. And I imagine my trial was mild compared to what could have happened. At no point did the prescribing doctor tell me the medication was an MAOI or to watch my diet etc. I was well aware of MAOI interactions at this time, I just didn't make the connection with what happened to me until years later.

    i might add what little i know....

    the kava plant we grew in oz, was a black awa from hawai, said to be the strongest kava strain arround.

    there are many posts about this plant and who got it legaly nthrue customs, here at sab.

    the person who introduced the black awa, is easy to find with a internet search, he is doing brugmansias now somewhere around cairns.

    try brugmansia australia.

     

    hey, kadakuda i struggle to germinate betel nut seeds, i think i need to scarifie them.

    can you help, with insights?

    sorry for the side track

    The strength of kava comes with the age of the plant. Generally, 3-5 years in the absolute minimum age before you'd even think of harvesting roots. 6-7 years is fantastic but not many commercial growers can afford to wait that long. Also, there are so many chemotypes, some are more "heady" and some are more "heavy" in the mix of kavalactones. 

    Generally speaking, Hawaiian "awa" or kava is considered to be weaker than most Vanuatu and Fijian varieties, but again, age of the roots is the biggest factor in potency.

    The etiquette/policy of non-intervention in another's Ayahuasca "journey" seems draconian, under the circumstances. 

    Purging seems to have been counter-therapeutic in this case, if the oesophageal tear (from excessive vomiting) was indeed the cause of death. 

    I'd probably feel safer if my facilitator were trained in basic first aid, as well as traditional healing practices. 

    Is kambo and ayahuasca an inherently dangerous combination? 

    The problem with a lot of these kinds of people who set themselves up as facilitators is they don't believe in traditional medicine so they thought they knew better than to call an ambulance. Nothing a little guitar playing and chanting can't fix...

    Criminally negligent not to be prepared for a medical emergency and act fast.

  8. Personally, I like 4 datura stramonium seeds per person added to my brew. But I don't do it without people's permission because it's not everyone's preference and some folks are downright scared of tropanes.

    But yeah if it's my brew for me, that's how I make cimora.

    The thing with making a brew, is you can't do it if you're not in a good headspace. You have to put all the love and good vibes in, sing it songs, blow some incence over it, ring some gongs or tingshas over it...


  9. Could be that it's getting strong light somewhere it's not used to, and/or needs nitrogen.

    Give it a feed of some of your urine every day for a week, and make sure to give plenty of water also, cos salt buildup 


  10. I've had a month off weed and it's been the worst month of sleep I can ever remember. I did the first 6 nights almost totally sleepless, I was in hallucination territory on day 7. 

    Following weeks I still couldn't get a good sleep. Maybe a couple of hours at a time if I was lucky. 

    Yes, dreams are intense, but generally towards the morning and waking time. Had a pretty crazy lucid dream the other morning.

    I didn't feel like I was getting REM sleep at all. Normally after a week off I sleep like a log. Not any more. Maybe I'm just getting old and my parents always sod the older you get, the less you sleep.

    So I am back on the weed sleep and it's wonderful. I had a solid 6-8 hours last two nights and I don't care what anyone says, it's proper deep sleep. I feel refreshed.
