A variety of Lophophoras
Trichocereus pachanoi
Trichocereus pachanoi v.crestatae
Trichocereus bridgessi
Trichocereus bridgessi v.monstrose
Acacia maidenii
Psychotria viridis
Cannabis (Blue Widow f2) Oh so, sticky icky ooey-gooeyness

The Acacia and the Psychotria are actually in the mail. Counting all my eggs before they hatch. Poppies were sown earlier. I'm going to grow some various smoking herbs, this spring. This way I can cure the herbs myself. The store-bought herbs just aren't dried/cured properly.

very nice indeed folks .

my humble window ledge garden consists of = 2(just comming on 5yo)Lophophora w's,
a 6" tall sold as Trichocereus bridgessi but im uncertain, 2 comming along nicely sally D
cuttings and my little girls spider plant(good air cleaner apparently ).

Soon to be germinating me heavenly blues some mint and in my extended garden a seletion of the cannabis sativa variety
with one or two indicas for good balance

i wish all your wonder/filled gardens all the best of mervelous growth this season.
happy watching

peace

Soaked 3 Passiflora incarnata seeds in GA3 for 48 hours and planted them in an incubator. 2 days later 2 of the 3 have sprouted! These have been impossible to sprout in the past! Takes months sometimes. I'm a believer in GA3

Added a few Datura Stramonium's. Soaking in GA3 now.

So now I have:
1) 2 passion flower (incarta)
2) 8 Salvia Divinorium (HW)
3) 2 HBWR (Hawaiian)
4) Cebil (died)
5) 4 Lions Tail
6) Peruvian Torch (to many to count)
7) T. Panchoi (to many to count)
8 ) Bhut Jolokia (not an enthogen but it is the hottest pepper in the world)
9) Datura Stramonium

7 magnificent salvia divinorum.
2 Mimosa hostilis (5 cm already!)
4 Banisteriopsis caapi (let's see how these go, just seeded)

Salvia grows so well indoors that I now believe it's a myth the difficulty of growing the plant. I received a half-dead cutting last year (about this time) and now I have 7 vigorous plants, one of them well over 70 cm. And already had a first flush of leaves! The naked harvested twigs, without any leaves, put in a water jar will grow leaves and roots in 1 week! After 2 weeks I put them in the earth and they just grow!

The mimosas are a bit tougher to start, but they are growing! Seeded after scarification in late march and growing somewhat slowly outdoors. I have lots of hope for these two little babies. These were the only survivors after repeated slug attacks. The bastards are just crazy for the mimosas!

As for the caapi, just seeded them after soaking in water for a day. very expensive seeds although guaranteed to be viable... Let's see if it goes well. These will be indoors, at least when young.

Yeah, I've never understood why people thought SD was tough to grow. It honestly grows like a weed.

Pretty passion flowers

Trichocereus peruvianus and Salvia divinorum

I'm in the New England region and I'm wondering what plants/vines/cacti would be good to grow in my area. I have a few cuttings of caapi vine trying to root right now and I'm wondering where a good place to start would be... for outside or indoors. Thanks!

Some brugmansia sanguinea or flava ou vulcanicola
originary from the andes mountain (+ 3000 metres) don't support well high temperatures and prefer shade in the summer..
It's a very pretty tree plant growing easily in pot or in the garden.

This year, I'll try experimenting with sowing various seeds from four continents:

Europe:

-Wild opium lettuce (lactosa virosa)
-Mandrake (mandragora officinarum)
-Yellow belladona (Atropa belladona var.lutea)
-belladona (Atropa belladona)
-Scopolia (scopolia carniolica)
-White henbane (hyoscyamus albus)
-Black henbane (hyoscyamus niger)
-Moonflower (Datura stramonium)

Asia:

-Holy basil (ocimum sanctum)
-Asian thorn apple (Datura metel)
-Poppy (papaver somniferum)

Africa:

-Kanna (sceletium tortuosum)

America:

-Morning glory Heavenly blue (Ipomea tricolor)
-Illinois Bundleflower (desmanthus illinoensis)
-White sage (salvia apiana)
-Toloache (datura inoxia)
-Wild aztec tobacco (nicotina rustica)
-Tree tobacco (nicotina glauca)
-Mexican tarragon (tagetes lucida)
-Achuma (trichocereus bridgesii)
-Sinicuiche (heimia salicifolia)
-Chiriscaspi (brunfelsia sp.)
-Toé (Brugmansia suaveolens)


On the top of the grown ones doing well:

-Peyotes (Lophophora wiliamsii)
-Peruvian torch (trichocereus peruvianus)
-Sacred mint (Salvia divinorum)
-Toé (Brugmansia suaveolens and versicolor)

The plan is to start a collection of ethnobotanical plants to swap seeds and propagate rare plants in friends balcony and gardens to spread altenative essences.

What I'm doing this spring:

Salvia Divinorum (about 15 inches tall so far)
Pychotria Viridis (about 6 inches tall)
Heimia Salicifolia (about 6-7 inches tall)

Herbs, currently seedlings:

Basil
Cilantro
Chives
Oregano
Chamomile
Coleus

Planted, waiting for germination:

Peruvian Torch (x8, hope they all pop)
Syrian Rue

N.rustica

Cannabis indica

Papafer somniferum

Psilocybe cubensis

potentially desmanthus, cactus and salvia aswell, wouldn`t mind growing phalaris
i would also like to grow kratom and khat, datura and brugmansia though i don`t know where to find seeds or cuttings.

^ there will be desmanthus, some of your's are on my window cill right now..and mid summer I will take the salvia cuttings.

Khat seeds can be found through an entho vendor. Not sure where I saw it might have been herbalfire. I think kratom is hard to grow from seed if I remember correctly. I think a cutting or rooted plant would.be the wah to go there.

I also just procured a T. Pachanoi seedling via a trade so I will have a 1 inch baby in a week or so I hope.

I would lime to grow coca does anyone know where to get seeds or live plants in the US?

Pretty sure it's illegal to own/cultivate coca.


Anyways I'll hopefully be getting a salvia cutting soon, and maybe get around to try and germinating those san pedro seeds I got.

germinating P.viridis, but dont have a clue if they'll survive in auld Scotia.

Having another bash at Morning Glories, lost the 10 I planted about this time last year due to some freaky snow. I'm doing 25 this time jus to be safe

Got various strains of some other popular plant on the go as well.

Nothing? Why not? No garden?

Morning Glory
HBWR
Peruvian Torch
San Pedro
Achuma
4 different Kinds of Caapi.

All from seeds/cuttings for the first try been waiting for Spring to get my stuff . Hopefully most of it is successful and I can start doing my own cuttings in years to come. Need to get the caapi going strong before winter comes! I think the rest should be fine.


Also have a ton of veggies my wife and I are growing from seed this year for the first time on our deck as well as the usual stuff we will buy from the local plant shops. We should have like 4 types of Tomatoes, Carrots, Potatoes, Beets, a bunch of lettuce, A Blueberry tree, Green beans, Strawberries and a bunch of herbs. Tons of stuff for a small urban area with no yard

This is my first time starting a garden, but I have decided to go ambitious.

I have a lot of seeds that I'm waiting to plant. We're still not past the final frosts in my area (around The middle of April).

Lobelia inflata
Leonurus sibiricus
Hieracium pilosella
Nicotiana rustica
Ipomoea violacea
Desmanthus illinoensis
Solenostemon scutelarioides
Acorus calamus americanus

I just ordered 3 salvia plants and three calamus that I'm waiting for.

And I still want to get the seeds of these plants before the end of the April:

Verbascum blattaria
Petunia violacea
Haemia salicifolia
Phalaris aquatica AQ1

I might also try my hand at growing some psilocybe cubensis if I have time.
