    When I was a kid back in the seventies I use to walk miles in the desert with flower pots try trying to find these cactus transplanting them then our step father would give me and my sis our allowance.. I had no idea what they were for I thought pretty on people's desk or cactus garden. Now I know better. I feel so used thinking back on it I should have gotten a bigger cut.

    @@Peyote1312 In his defense, he was a kid and didn't know better, it was the 70's... I believe they weren't yet endangered, plus they're only endangered in the wild, it's not like they can't be reestablished/incorporated back into nature. However, I do agree that they should be left alone, I certainly wouldn't touch them, if I wanted one I'd just buy some from a nursery or grow from seed. Disclaimer... its illegal to grow or possess them in the United States if you're not a member of the Native American church that use them in ceremony.

She's loves them too and says they're all her friends. Lol. I love growing plants too. Maybe it's from my native american and mayan DNA and from learning from my grandfather as well. I love plant powered people!!! Have a great day Lyn!!! Truly for you to learn so much and to share it so easily and enthusiastically is so wonderfully enlightening!!! 🙏🏻💖🙏🏻💖🙏🏻💖🙏🏻💖🙏🏻💖🙏🏻

    Yeah eating peyote to trip is straight up disrespectful, but honestly nobody is doing that these days anyways (I hope) since they've all been poached :(. A strong pachanoi or a good bolivian torch will be nearly as potent as peyote and they're fast growing common cacti. You gotta puke up a bunch of cactus no matter which way you take it unless you get lab made mescaline or do an extraction. I want to get ahold of a button and start grafting them to pachanois for preservation. They're also just beautiful cactus. Mescaline is a really special psychedelic, it has strong empathogenic effects compared to any other psychedelics and makes you appreciate the world, its psychedelic cactus MDMA. A mild mescaline trip is what formed my love for cacti and succulents.

A whole bunch of little seedlings some regular williamsii and caespitosa. One caespitosa grafted onto a pereskiopsis. I dont think Id ever eat a peyote though its just waste of love, effort and beautiful plant. Ill stick to doing acid base extractions from pachanoi and bridgesii from a source of mescaline. My point about declaring something abuse just because you're not the right religion to experience the 'medicine' still stands though. That's just asinine.

    The government in New Mexico has decriminalized all religious use of mushrooms, Peyote, and San Pedro, but I have been involved with the Native American Church since 2004,.. now I am an active member, and aiming to start a church dedicated to the sacrament Peyote. There are many Peyote's that we use, not just the ones in the books... Even San Pedro is referred to as Peyote in Mexico where Peyote was founded! some of them even have MDA "ecstacy" naturally occurring in them. Those ones are even more valued by the shaman and very hard to find, if you are looking for them. Funny, this cactus was given to babies who were colic, and they chewed on it like a piece of candy. They taste like a green apple and make you feel all of the love in the universe wrap around you like a soft cozy blanket! We all know this species of cactus M. Wrightii... The berries taste like kiwi and strawberry and are very warming to the spirit as well. Do you have any M.Wrightii in your collection, or is it just too easy to grow for you? Thank you for showing us this most wonderful plant! I love your video! Even the older ones!!!

I do, but ive learned the hard way that birds love to peck on them, i lost a few this way and most are damaged by now because of beak sized holes.

    To re root your pups just wait for spring and when they blow up after a couple of waterings you can cut the pups away with a bit of root stem and let them dry out for a week and plant them shallow when the scar tissue has formed... you can also try graft your pups to faster growing cacti that's I just tried with 1 of my peyote pups it seems basic and I have many prickly pear clones to graft to... otherwise its not to hard cacti are very strong... you will have to re pot the mother cactus and also if you graft you can also re pot the graft root and grow more pups or even graft the root and grow up to several pups at one go...

    Eating peyote to trip is straight up disrespectful, but honestly nobody is doing that these days anyways (I hope) since they've all been poached :(. A strong pachanoi or a good bolivian torch will be nearly as potent as peyote. You gotta puke up a bunch of cactus no matter which way you take it unless you get lab made mescaline or do an extraction. I want to get ahold of a button and start grafting them to pachanois for preservation. They're also just beautiful cactus. Mescaline is a beautiful substance and it's what got me into cacti. It's different from other psychedelics, you fall in love with the world and appreciate everything when you're on it.

    Thats wonderful you have got one of these Lophophora beauties, it will settle down in a few days and acclimatise to its new surroundings, if its your Spring now I would still keep it dry and a little bit shaded from too much direct sunshine for the first few days until it acclimatises, after a few days you can put your Loph in a very sunny position and then water, you can also use a cactus fertiliser every 3-4 waterings to help speed up the flowering, good luck with growing your new Loph and thanks so much for watching and sending you lots of love and happiness and PLANT POWER for a sunny Saturday XXXX

    Hi :-D yes if your Lophophora's are very small in the young seedling stage ( less than 1 cm wide ) I would still continue to give them a bit of water every time the soil has totally dried out in the pots, and keep them at a minimum temperature of 12-15 C / 55-60F, but if they are larger than this and its Autumn /Winter now where you are living, then I would keep them totally dry with no watering at all now until the Spring time, as these cacti like a cool and dry overwintering rest period

    +Daniel Aguiniga Hi Daniel :-) thanks so much for your wonderful comment :-) the best soil to use is a well drained potting mix and I make up my own by using a soil based rather than a peat based soil and I like to use John Innes either no1 or no2, and then mix it in equal parts with horticultural sand, if you can't get John innes soi, then you can use any other soil based compost and mix it with Horticultural sand or perlite :-) I use 50% John Innes and 50% horticultural sand. but you can also use 50% soil based compost and 50% perlite :-) its a very slow growing cactus and makes a wonderful compact little plant that forms little pups all around its base with age :-) thanks so much for watching and sending heaps of love and happy growing from Ireland for a FANTASTIC day XXXXX

    Hi there, it could be due to stress, these Lophophora can turn purplish or reddish if they are getting a lot of direct sun or when exposed to cold, excess heat or any problems with their roots, it may be best to remove your cactus from the pot just to double check there is no problem with the roots like root mealy bug or if the roots or tuber has got damaged, thanks so much for watching and happy growing to you XXXX
