Cacti pr0n!

[Frequency]

I named her Bessie!
She's a big girl! It's time for some salt my friends.
Pics of the next step later...

That's a biggun!

[cubpedro]

Very nice Any idea how much it weighs ?

[Battlr]

Yes, I am also curious if you know how much it weighs.
In any case, shes a beauty!

[Howard Esteban]

that tripped me out until i realized it was an upside-down offshoot.
probably a kilo of good dry weight there at least

[Frequency]

Thanks guys! Yeah that picture was rotated 45 degrees clockwise for better perspective on size.

She weighs just over 8 kilos. Should be around 1 kilo dry. I tell ya, there's nothing like the smell of 20 pounds of fresh cactus cut up to dry in a small room. MMmmmmm... Refreshing!

More pics to come when she's dry!

here's a few pix of my cactus garden. sadly most of my lophos are gone. i was no longer able to grow them where i was living, and shipped them to someone i thought i could trust. i've moved since then and can happily grow again.
the rest of my plants are doing great. another year or so and i plan to harvest a few and make some tea.

for some reason the pix won't upload - says a security token is missing ?

Very nice.
What kind of yield should you get off a kilo?

[HellDragon]

Awesome cactus!

Thanks! Just under 3oz of brown spice that will clean up to a little less than that.

She was a fine specimen and dried up very nicely. A jerky dehydrator is crucial! A/B ftw! All this was carefully performed while listening to "Sir Charles - Slow Rolling" on repeat. Stroke it with the motion!



Oops I dropped my change!

Haha I love the little cacti-tip in the back corner of the chem closet

is there a difference in high between the sanchez and the clear/white results after an acetone wash?

That sure is a HONKER you got your mitts on there, man!
I must say, though, i prefer my pachanoi served with pepper...

hydrochloride? sulfate? have you tried both, and, if so, can you comment on the difference between the two; dosage-wise? i have read in several places, that sulfate is supposed to be more potent, by weight, then HCl

thanks in advance! great photos

Thanks cap! There is definitely difference between sanchez and clean spice. Brown sanchez has a higher body-load/hangover/nausea than white. You also have to take dosage into consideration. The more tan or brown your spice is, the less total mescaline content there is. You'd have to take more dirty to match the potency of the clean.

You're right about the dosage between the sulftate and the hydrochloride. The sulfate is 11% lighter than the hcl on the molecular level. 267mg SO4 = 300mg HCL

Xylol = Xylene - It's a enamel reducer and paint thinner. Menard's, Home Depot, etc. Check out my post (Emulsions!) for a bit more information on Xylene.

Hope I helped answer your questions! Oh, and if you like it pepper you should try paprika! Spicy!

hahahaha. well cap, i wish i had one of those! i do have the two buttons i was able to keep on graft right now. i'm fixin' to graft one of the pups from the root onto pereskiopsis in a few minutes. yeah, man, it broke my heart to loose all the rest of my willies. sent them to a member here for "safekeeping" until i was able to raise them myself. all good tho.... i learned a lesson.
talked to hip about the error message and was told it's one of those intermittant errors - real hard to track down, so i'm gonna keep trying to upload my pix. here goes...

it worked! whoo-hoo!!
