oxydiser Posted May 31, 2005 Hey Torsten, do you outsource for Lophophora williamsii seed or is it all derived from plants within Australia? I was wondering whether or not there would be more seed available before the start of spring? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Torsten Posted May 31, 2005 the season has little to do with availability. To be able to offer good prices we need to make large bulk purchases. These are expensive and need to be scheduled with other puchases. We have just bought a new lot, so after we have germination tested it we will make it available. Won't be long now.

nabraxas Posted June 1, 2005 just out ov interest how long would it take to grow Lophophora williamsii seed to something "usable"? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Benzito Posted June 1, 2005 Nabraxas, try a search, I've seen that question answered a few times around here. The rule of thumb that I know, is that it takes about 5 buttons, of 5 years of age, for one single dose of peyote. Obviously, size, environment, etc will play a huge part. But, you don't grow these to 'get wasted'. So, if you are asking how long it will take to get a useful dose, then chances are that you probably won't be patient enough to wait anyways. After growing a plant for 5 years, who could eat it? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
woof woof woof Posted June 15, 2005 Unless you graft the seeds. Depending on the graft stock, ... it can vary between anything from 1 year to 2 and a half years for you to have something usable. So say you have 10 peresk with a seedling under relatively good growing conditions,... then you should have enough for 2 people in a year from the moment you graft.

Torsten Posted June 15, 2005 brian - consensus on grafting is that you might have the volume, but not the alkaloids to make it useable. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
