  1. Howdy! :lol:

     

    I'm currently on the hunt for any PE cube prints (edit: I actually just realised that PE prints cannot be made due to the caps not opening enough to expose spores), petri/liquid cultures, slants etc. that someone may be keen to sell or trade?  Shoot me a message if you're able to help and we'll chat further about making a purchase or a trade for a few things I've got in my collection. 

     

    Obviously these are for strict mycology research! :wink:

     

    Cheers, LikeAshes.


  2. 9 years later and I'm still bloody hunting this plant hahaha.. I've found them over east in Melbourne while I'm on holiday atm although the price is just a bit steep to purchase the plant and spend a heap of cash just to post it back home to WA so I'll continue looking for viable seeds instead. :)


  3. Hey dude, nah I've not done much more digging into S. apiana as of yet but will definitely check out that extraction method and possibly do a little bioassay of the crude extract to see what effects are noticed, if any.

     

    Given the results of that study in comparison to the control opioid and cannabinoid agonist drugs they used, it definitely sounds very promising and may very well have some level of psychoactivity!  :lol:


  4. Some extremely intriguing and promising results on the pharmacological evaluation of Salvia apiana.  I am very eager to conduct an ethanolic extract on some white sage leaves as soon as I can acquire enough material in order to bioassay the extract and take note of any potential psychoactivity.  As from what this data postulates, it may very well be an effective analgesic and anxiolytic compound. :lol:

     

    Abstract:

    "Salvia apiana (white sage, Lamiaceae family) plant is native to southern California and parts of Mexico. Some Native American tribes local to this region consider S. apiana to be sacred and burn the leaves as incense for purification ceremonies. The plant has been used to treat sore throats, coughs, chest colds, upper respiratory infections and poison oak rashes. The aqueous ethanolic extract of S. apiana showed moderate CB1 activity (58.3% displacement). Chromatographic purification of the ethanolic extract on silica gel column led to isolation of nine compounds: rosmadial (I), carnosol (II), 16-hydroxycarnosol (III), sageone (IV), cirsimaritin (V), salvigenin (VI), oleanolic acid (VII), 3β,28-dihydroxy-urs-12-ene (VIII), and ursolic acid (IX). The structures of the isolated compounds were determined by their 1D, 2D NMR and MS spectral data. All the fractions and isolated compounds were tested for cannabinoid and opioid receptor binding."

  5. Likewise with not making it to the meet.  My 6wk old baby was up screaming all night and my partner was absolutely buggered so I had to stay back to help out around the house and with looking after me daughter... I feel horrible saying that I'll be somewhere then not making it! :(  

     

    Anyhow.. to make up for not attending the meet I would love to do an online giveaway to those interested in some seed packs that I prepared for the meet last weekend!  I will be giving away and posting out:

    - 3x packs of Mitragyna hirsuta seeds

    - 3x packs of Desmodium gangeticum seeds

    - A pack of SAB Acacia acuminata 'broad leaf' seeds

    - A pack of SAB Heimia salicifolia seeds

    - 3x packs of Sida cordifolia seeds

    I have also created a lovely legal pain relief and potent anxiolytic herbal formula using a 3:1 ratio of Mitragyna hirsuta and Mitragyna javanica powder.  I will make up about 4x 20 cap sample packs to giveaway to those who may be interested!  Flick me a PM and we can discuss it further if anyone is interested in any of these listings.  I will edit this post as things are taken, so people will know what is left.  :lol:

     

    I am also DEFINITELY keen on this camping trip you're planning @Gimli


  6. Sweet!!  I'm definitely keen to get up there and put a few names to faces!  I'll go through the collection to see what live plants I'll be able to share around with others but I'll certainly have some interesting seeds to bring up and share!  Looking forward to it!  :lol:


  7. Absolutely looove your posts brother!! Proanthocyanidins have also got some major anticancer properties and appear to be getting more 'promising' attention thesedays within the field of research, in regards to their potential for treating multiple types of cancers. That is also a DAMN fine harvest you've got there dude haha, living entirely off the land is a goal I am also aiming to achieve by the end of the year! :)

  8. Likewise with the spawn, I have currently just 'snuck' through some rye grain spawn from Italy that I'll get colonizing onto some agar to clean up but once everything has been sterilized I'd be happy to part with some slants or cultures. I'll keep an eye on this thread and flick another comment up when things are ready! :)

  9. Definitely too keen to get these meets fired back up!! Soo many faces I've still not met and/or have not seen in bloody years!! :) Can't wait.. I'll be there (for now) as a buyer and can also bring up whatever spare seeds I may have laying around, but I will have to check everything I've got a make up a little list! :lol:

  10. Mate, I've always enjoyed your comments and/or threads! The fact you suffer a form of high-functioning autism and are drawn to all this kind of research and medicine, is just sooo intriguing dude! I could talk for hours with you brother about all of this haha I ABSOLUTELY love everything you've done here bro.. just amazing! Keep up the good work as you are seriously providing some VITAL 'healing knowledge' here mate!!

     

    Friday the 13th yesterday... was the perfect night for doing some infusions!! I'm working with B. Carterii 20:1 extract and straight Myrrh powder atm.. just leaving them to steep in my homemade ethanol for the first lunar cycle, then gonna drop it all through a 25micron filter and see what I end up with yield wise.. from there I'll be infusing the B. Carterii into MCT oil in order to make up an Anticancer tincture for a patient. The myrrh will just be filtered then left in ethanol and used as a mouth rinse/wash and also to sterilise and heal up any minor cuts or sores inside the mouth.

     

    Peace brother, I hope you have an awesome weekend planned! :lol:
