Re: Cool Plants and Trees

"Is that the one that's used as a drug? =.="

yes it is one of the ones. along with others. teh difference with peyote is it has other alkaloids in it as well as mescaline making it a little different than other cacti. its interesting to note that apparently indians from as far as canada journeyed to souther US to collect this cacti (perhaps others). Other tribes ( i forge the names...) were known to run for days staright with the use of this plant. it definatly has soem history. from a botany point of veiw and an exploration point of veiw the book "One River" is a pretty fun read about teh more narcotic ethnogens and the work of Shultz.

i am suprised that bamboo has not been mentioned. if i were to guess, i would say it has to be among the top 10 ethnogens in human civilization.
