Listed a few Catha edulis 'Red' and 'Vienna White.

Get 'em while you can.

Also listed a couple of new Cymbopogon spp.:

Cymbopogon nardus, also known as Citronella Grass, contains an essential oil known as Citronella Oil, which can be extracted from the aerial parts and used as an insect repellent.

C. giganteus. Recent research has found that this species contains a total of eight essential oils, the dominant compounds being limonene (42%) and a set of monoterpene alcohols: trans-p-mentha-1(7),8-dien-2-ol (14.2%), cis-p-mentha-1(7),8-dien-2-ol (12%), trans-p-mentha-2,8-dien-1-ol (5.6%) and cis-p-mentha-2,8-dien-1-ol (5.2%). These essential oils showed antimicrobial effects against all nine bacteria they were applied to in the study.

Freshly harvested Psychotria viridis seeds have been added to the webstore, as have large Echinopsis sp. 'Juul's Giant' x E. pachanoi 'X' and Echinopsis lageniformis 'Segmented/ Sausage' Plant in both standard and large sizes. The latter clone terminates growth at the end of the grow season then pups from the termination point at the start of next grow season, although it is variable and does not terminate every column every season.

[toast]

Added another couple of plants to the webstore;

Centella asiatica (Gotu Cola) -This species is a culinary & medicinal herb. It is quite nutritious and is used as a leafy green in Indian cuisine. It is also a much revered tonic and nootropic, and the leaves are eaten raw for best effect.
In traditional medicine, Gotu Cola is used to revitalize the brain and nervous system, increase attention span and concentration and combat aging. It also has antioxidant properties, is a mild adaptogen, is mildly antibacterial, antiviral, anti-inflammatory, antiulcerogenic, anxiolytic, nervine and vulnerary, and can act as a cerebral tonic, a circulatory stimulant, and a diuretic.

Echinopsis sp. 'Giant Blue JAC001' Extra Large Plant - Note that these specimens exhibit a slight to moderate amount of scarring (see below), and are offered cheaper than they would otherwise be. Due to the length of these cacti (at least 40cm), they are shipped via parcel post only.

Relisted a few cacti today.

Also, we are currently stocking Salvia divinorum (Diviner's Sage) herb [20 grams], and Mitragyna specoisa (Kratom) herb [20 grams & 1 kilo] and 20x extract [15 grams & 1 kilo] via the webstore

Edit: forgot to mention that the Diviner's Sage is grown in Mexico & is reported to be approximately five times more potent than domestically grown material

Not sure mate, I'll have to get back to you

[PhoenixSon]

choice!

[incognito]

Fuck yeah! Kratom is back! Woot!!! Yah dosage rates would be awesome!

[incognito]

Will u be doing sage extracts?

[whitewind]

Thirded with the kratom dosage rates. Great stuff guys!

[PhoenixSon]

used to love making crystally extract from sally, happy to do it for anyone that cant be arsed.

[Halif]

Wait.. what did I miss?

Kratom and Salvia Divinorum are illegal in Australia and have been for ages, I thought?

Sorry if I did actually miss something huge and obvious. I'm super excited to see Kratom for sale here! I'm just confused about their sudden availability.....

[Anodyne]

Halif: it's explained here.

[toast]

watz the recommended dose 4 the kratom extract?

Sorry for the delay. I'm waiting for feedback from someone that has tried both the raw and extracted product.

Will u be doing sage extracts?

No plans to do extracts at the moment. The imported Mexican material is quite strong as it is

[Halif]

Thanks so much for pointing that out to me, Anodyne.

It was almost surreal to see those things listed on the SAB store. I had to pinch myself.... seemed too good to be true.

I've had many experiences with a wide variety of psychotropic plants because I have travelled extensively and thus have been able to take advantage of opportunistic moments.

BUT, I've never tried Kratom and I've always wanted too!!

[theuserformallyknownasd00d]

Just ordered all the dragibus zines and acacia seed thanks for the heads up toast
