The drink is pretty bad but you just get it down and its over. You use lemons to lower the Ph (alkaloids are soluable at about 5.5) and it makes it taste better too.

Peyote is amost extinct in the wild. More in Taos than around Falcon Lake. You can certainly get a full on psychedelic experience with peyote and that is tough with SP unless it is refined or something. No other plant ally has been as healing for me. I do one ceremony a year and I feel that it is helping me withstand and be strong. I am a better, happier person for it.

I have a bunch of cactus and I am going to be selling them soon. I have spent the last three years growing out enough to market and it is time. I have them from 5' tall and many branched, to 6" tall and rooted. They clone very easlily and are a cinch to grow. A single 5 gallon pot with 4-6 heads on it will provide a ceremony twice a year as well as new clones.

They are completely legal and they are powerful. Effects last a full 12 hours or more and are much different than Peyote, which is almost entirely mescaline. Possessing and selling the cactus are completely legal, but you cant sell juice. I believe that dried cactus, fresh cut cactus, and cactus pills with dried powder inside are legal too.

There are a bunch of cactus that have active alkaloids. There are a bunch that have some poison alkaloids too. Dona Ana (Corypantha macromeris) is a big time narcotic and will knock you out for a couple of days like ruphenol. It grows all over New Mexico.

Then there is DMT! A whole different ballgame! Binary spirits, Ayahuasca, Ayahuasca Borealis, Pharmahuasca, smoking phalaris extract, etc. etc. And New Mexico set another precedent here in Santa Fe with the 1999 ruling on the Church UDV and their right to use ceremonial ayahuasca. So there is another very good healer of both mind and spirit that is available to us to experience!

I highly reccommend any of these to anyone. Google them. Do your research. You will find that they are powerful healers of body and spirit and have been used for that for centuries. They are legal, and they are completely safe in every way (from what I have been able to find out and from my personal experience).
I wrote you some pretty personal stuff to no response,must be that missing bubble or the schizo! Haha no but I have used Pete many times and I totally agree. I have never tried Peyote or the others you mentioned. Yeah it is powerful! One time that I ate it I couldn't stop laughing,like a person's first real MJ high,I was giggling and just friggin couldn't stop! This punk ass I knew saw me and was like you really can't hold your liquor OR brick stick. I said yeah you're damn right buddy that is ALL I'm under the influence right now. That was early during my first time. The rest of the night I stuck w/ my trip buddy and we both soon realized how much respect the plant deserved. I had bought it in TorC,3 stalks in a pot bout 18" each. The rest was consumed in a much different way. As was the fungi. For quite awhile it was my DOC since I pulled them from a pusher for a ridiculously low price. Crack me,I bleed blue Mexicans. There was a time of oh 2 months or so that I almost always had a "dip" cap in my lip. Everybody I knew was ever wiser as I dipped cope snuff constantly. Damn that shit is expensive now. Grizzly snuff isn't bad and I honestly prefer it over cope.Today I bought 10 cans for $23,sweeeeeeeeeeeet. Not at Sam's or Costco either. Speaking of which I got a hankering. Later on Bob
