my thoughts (given the Aussie (?) dude dumped out the core as inactive material) would be the powder should be stronger. Wherever he lives (which is also warm enough to go around in shorts and bare feet in February) he also mentions finding an entire large cactus growing wild and being able to swipe the entire thing (which would not be easy if it were someones ornamental plant).

Are they legal to grow in UK as ornamental plants and is that even possible with our weather?

Is it fuck, they take fucking years to grow and I don’t have that sort of patience lol

I saw some that have been grown in UK but after 2 years they are only as big as a cucumber or aubergine. And I expect they need the heated growing trays or whatever they are called and have to be kept in the warm. I personally know very little about plants etc and lack the time to do all that.

it is maybe the sort of thing you could get away with as a hobby in middle age/retirement as it does not look suspicious to the neighbours if you are growing all sorts of other ornamental plants and you would have the spare time to sit around looking after them during the initial stages…

Various cacti are widely kept as indoor houseplants (we have had central heating in most UK houses since 30 years!) and there are some varieties hardy enough to survive a British or North European winter (provided they aren’t watered although by then its usually raining quite often!). I am not sure if any of these are the psychedelic ones, TBH if they were there would surely have been a moral panic already about them…

I wasn’t talking about as a house plant. You might be able to grow them outdoors but they won’t thrive as it is far different from their natural habitat; similar to trying to grow conifers in a desert.[/quote]

I suspect this is exactly why the psychedelic ones are not illegal to grow in Northern Europe, the authorities there realise it would be difficult to grow any big enough to get a decent yield of mescaline most people wouldn’t bother with the effort. Those who do are unlikely to be problem drug users.

GL I’m having a bug, when I try to quote your posts it takes me to the full reply screen which isn’t the problem (although this doesn’t happen when I quote others, I just get taken to the quick reply at the bottom of the screen). The problem is that when it goes to full reply I can’t use the space bar.

That is a strange one as posts by moderators aren’t AFAIK treated any differently to any other content on here… Sometimes clearing out the cache/cookies and logging back in stops these odd errors but I use a custom adblocker that works in 4 different languages and privacy badger and neither of these upset how this site works…
