I had a pink powdery/grainy substance that I was told was Mescaline
back in the 70’s. It had a wonderful calming and peaceful effect. Sound like Mescaline to you, anyone?

I’ve been growing San Pedros for some 40 years. They’re in a sunny bay window and they grow fine, but they never branch (except where I’ve had to trim them), and they’ve never flowered. How can I get them to flower?

Hi I have some very large (6ft) San Pedro that I would love to put in my yard (zone 9a). Is summer the best time to do this? Thanks!

I have some seedlings about 6 months old. They were removed from plastic bags (where there were kept in humid conditions) about 2 months ago. I’ve been watering them every couple of days after the soil dries out completely, but they have started turning brown. I never put them in direct sunlight but they do get indirect sunlight light all day. Also, I have a few late comers that are still very green and look good. Thinking they have been getting too much water. What do you think? How often do they need water at this stage? I also leave them outside during the day now that it’s spring. It is hitting in the 80’s in temps outside. They are kept on the porch, out of direct sun, but still get some light. Thanks!

Quick question, I have about a 7 inch long, 5 inch wide cutting of SP that was allowed to callus at the bottom, is it necessary to give a fresh cut before replanting? Based on your directions I am leaning toward no but I just want to make sure. Thanks for this guide it was so helpful!
