Hey all! It's been a while, but I'm back! I've been away (from the garden) for a little bit and Ive returned to find my HBWR way up in the trees 2+ stories high... I definitely don't want to kill it but any ideas on how I can reduce its size? I'll try and get a picture without exposing my location too much ;) It's good to be back, much love to you all

So many plant medicines have an agenda and lessons to teach about itself or the outside world. There is a guiding presence that is quite obvious! I just don't get it with Hawaiian baby woodrose. There is no ancient voice or guidance of the plant. No real agenda on openness and compassion for our planet and each other. For a plant medicine it seems very unguided. I want to help myself and hopefully others to understand the force behind this flower.

Have some spare argyreia nervosa (HBWR) seeds to give away. Bout 40 seeds per person, 20 seeds from green pods and 20 seeds from brown pods as I am not sure which are more viable. All pods picked 2 days a go so super fresh. First in first served...Australia only. PM addy and will send off.

I am on my second different crop of HBWR. My first grew and grew, likely from the constant sunlight, plenty of space for roots, all the nutrients it could handle. But never yeilded any flowers, pollen sacks, or anything other then a lot of really big leaves. After relocating, I started 3 more seedlings. Hoping at least one would yeild flowers, and one would yeild pollen and I would no longer need to purchase HBWR seeds. I kept these three trimmed short like bonzai trees, and intentionally kept them root bound. A month ago one started to grow light green almost white pods all over. Now the other two are following suit. Has anyone else had similar success with them being self seeding? How long do the pods take to mature completeIy? I uploaded two photos. They are signifigantly larger now. Thanks

I'm looking for some small hbwr plants, small datura plants and a caapi plant or fresh cutting, nothing over 20cm. If you have any of the above and are willing to part with them please message me and let me know if your wanting to sell or trade.

Plants in the Convolvulaceae-family are used entheogenic, but its not the plants themselfes making the hallucinogenic alkaloids but symbiotic fungi living on the plants. They biosynthesize the lysergic acid alkaloids in the leaves and translocalize them to the seeds. So the leaves are also active, but more in the early season. To the symbiotic fungi: http://2012.botanyco...=detail&aid=692 http://www.treebase....y.html?id=11183 The mayan Ololiuqui (Turbina corymbosa), also the leaves are active- contains Ergine, Isoergine (Erginine), traces of Chanoclavine, Elymoclavine and Lysergol: The HBWR, which is traditionally used in India (Argyreia nervosa)- contains mainly Chanoclavine-1,-2, Agroclavine, Ergine and Isoergine, traces of Elymoclavine, Festuclavine, Lysergene, Lysergol, Isolysergol, Molyclavin, Penniclavin, Stetoclavin, Isosetoclavin, Ergometrinin, Lysergic acid alpha-hydroxyethylamide and Ergometrine (Ergonovine): The famous morning glory (Ipomoea violacea)- contains Ergine (LSA), Isoergine, Chanoclavine, Elymoclavine and Ergometrine: The south-american Florón (Ipomoea carnea syn.
