    All my kk's are from Torsten EG, who I trust with plants but coming originally from Knize, who the fuck knows! The pics I could find of knizes mature Cephalomacrostibas definatly are different, hopefully these seedlings turn out to be what they are supposed to be. Worth the couple bucks and few years to find out I think. Been at it a while, probably 4 years now growing entheogens. Just only stopped lurking and got involved in the forum recently. Most of the cacti have come in the last year, 10 here, 10 there, doesn't take long if you are committed. I keep them outside year around, perfect conditions here where I am. Only gets down to 0 or 1 degrees celsuis in winter at it's coldest, and upto high 40's in summer. Really dry here, semi arid. If it's green up here, it's irragated. Lucky to live half way in between the two biggest collections in the country, 20 min either way. Perfect spot for cacti. I have alot of experience with plants in general though, owned and operated a successful market garden, grew up on farms so pretty confident I can handle it all. Got rid of most my pain in the arse plants that need alot of care. Cacti are my last concern here, it's the others that give me grief lol :)

    I aggree that we should not allow this site to become full of idiots looking for a high, it is about the plants which is why I'm here. I enjoy growing the plants, as having a relationship with the plant increases it's benefits for me. And it in itself is therapuetic. And this site has been invaluable for me in doing that. With that being said when I want to discuss using a plant, it is not as a drug, but as a medicine or sacrement. As long as we consider them drugs, so will the authorities. I think we need to change the language, shapeshift it to suit the true purposes of these plants. You may consider entheogens to be drugs, but every traditional culture considers them sacred medicines. Discussing the safe use of sacred medicine is far less likely to have the same connotations than discussing using drugs. Maybe it's just semantics, but so is law :wink:

    None from seed so far Phil, although I just planted a bunch of glauca and valida seeds, hoping they come up. The loph got badly etoliated over winter, had the genius idea I could bring it inside kept next to a radiator and it would continue to grow over the cold months. Well it sure did, just not how I was hoping lol. Couldn't get enough light in the room, even hacked away a monster bush from one window.. And that's how they ended up, may be a blessing in disguise I'm thinking, should be able to cut each pup in half, graft the tops and reroot the bottoms. Hopefully the mother loph will throw a bunch more pups and soon enough, a nice little flock of lophs :)

    It seems to me that the rep forum is about us policeing ourselves, keeping ourselves honest in trading, sales etc, and as such may be better left un moderated. If peoples threads become nasty and all fucked up, it may very well be an accuratte reflection of the person and their behaviour towards others, and any moderating of that may hide the true picture. Just a thought.

    Fuck bro, them spines dont dissolve for ages. Had one stuck in my knuckle for 6 weeks before it worked itself out, spine was intact still when it came out, hadn't dissolved at all. Off to the docs mate, get em taken out, will be in there for bloody ages otherwise.
