It's a personal choice, there's no obligation to look after animals. I can understand wanting to care for them for your mothers sake, but they are a huge burden. I don't want animals again because they limit freedom. It's not like they are children, I don't think I could handle living with heaps of cats.

It's treatment-resistant depressing. If only there was a cure for it.

Doesn't ego dissolution as it relates to psychedelics just mean temporary long-term memory suppression? I used to think it meant something other than that also I learnt how to graft cacti here amongst heaps of other things

I don't have seeds of any of these plants unfortunately heirloom tomatoes are good. Beams yellow pear ftw

I think people who grow for personal use generally prefer to grow and consume quality herb, even where it's legal. They're usually not the people stealing electricity and spraying PGRs on their plants. This ABC has around 5% THC and yields poorly afaik. This and 'Ducksfoot' are well known in Australia, definitely not unheard of. They basically gained notoriety as 'stealth' plants due to their deceptive morphology, despite lackluster buds. There's nothing wrong with growing novelty plants.

it's real, apart from the weird morphology it's not really worth growing afaik

The author wanted to make a play on Real Hallucinations so badly

What I can gather is that the author reckons psychedelics are shaping up to replace SSRI-type drugs as bandaids for the symptoms of structural inequality and 'late capitalism'. Reminiscent of soma in Brave New World. the acronym and meta-ism detract from the article imo. I'm definitely not the target audience though

this is way too academic for me

these metabolites are there cos you're growing them for too long on the same plate. While you can get away with it, it's suboptimal to allow cultures to cover the agar surface. You should be subculturing and transferring mycelium from the leading edge.

yeah it would work. The bigger bottle can reduce the need to transplant it to an intermediate pot bottle tek is basically the same thing as takeaway tek. many different bottles or container would work. Bonus points that the container is recycled

oh you're right, apparently it is self-fertile. I don't know why mine didn't give seed. Are you cutting your plants down? you say there won't be more seed in the future

i've seen one flower 4 years after transplanting from a cutting. it may be possible for them to flower even sooner than that. I didn't get any seeds though cause they are self-sterile

Those are droplets of mycelial metabolites, not contamination
