containing this alkaloid is not difficult to
perform and is perhaps one of the most rewarding alchemical processes that one
can attempt. The chemicals required for this process are readily available and
their purchase arouses no suspicion or interest on the part of Government
agencies. The equipment employed is not expensive or particularly complicated
or can be constructed very easily from ordinary household items. The entire
process can be carried out in any kitchen in the matter of hours by following the
instructions below and in the final stages one can verify the success of the
procedure by actually watching the crystals of mescaline precipitate in the
solution. One kilo (2.2 lbs) of dried peyote buttons may yield between 10 and 60
grams of pure white needle crystals of mescaline depending on the potency of
the plants used. On average the yield is about 20 grams. The usual underground
price of a kilo of dried peyote ranges between $125 and $250 (25 to 50 cents per
button). From indians in the southwestern USA the price is closer to $50 (10
cents per button). The street price for a gram of pure mescaline is $20 to $30 - if
one is lucky enough to find it. One can obtain from a kilo of dried peyote $200 to
$1200 worth of mescaline. If San Pedro is employed on may anticipate a yield of
3 to 12 grams of mescaline per kilo of dried cactus. One can legally purchase a
kilo of dried San Pedro for $5 to $10 and from it extract $60 to $250 worth of pure
mescaline.
Grind a kilo of the dried cactus, place this in a large pressure cooker, cover with
distilled water, and boil for 30 minutes. Strain the liquids and save them. Return
the pulp to the pot, add more water and boil again for 30 minutes. Strain the
liquids and combine them with the first strainings. Repeat this process about five
times or until the pulp no longer has a bitter taste. Discard the pulp and reduce
the volume of the combined strainings by boiling in an open pot. Do not use
aluminum ware. When the liquids have been concentrated to the thickness of
cream (about one quart), stop the boiling and stir in 400 grams of sodium
hydroxide (lye). This makes the mescaline more soluble in benzene and less in
water. If a large separatory funnel is available pour the liquids into it and add
1600 ml of benzene. Shake the funnel well for five minutes and let it stand for two
hours. If a separatory funnel is not available the process can be carried out in a
one gallon jug with a siphon attached.
After standing for 2 hours the water layer will settle to the bottom and the
benzene layer will float to the top. Between the two layers will be a thin emulsion
layer of mixed water and benzene. Drain off the water and emulsion layers if you
are using a separatory funnel or siphon off the benzene layer if you are using the
makeshift jug-siphon apparatus. Be certain that neither the water or emulsion
layers get into the benzene layer when separating. If any of these layers d I grew EP last year for the first time. I didn’t get them to maturity, because of three or four major fukups by
me, along with a VERY wet autumn, so my yield was almost nil. I planted out on June-1, they suffered a couple
of frosts during which some purple showed. I planted them out after sexing on 12/12, which I wouldn't do now,
because once these plants start to flower, they don’t like re-vegging, so a confused bunch of semi-flowering
plants was the result. Water soluble slug pellets resulted in the plants being eaten to one foot tall bare stems
soon after. I reverted to my other type of (non-soluble) slug-pellet and the damage stopped. One plant
re-grew in veg form, the others continued in semi-flower. Something odd happened then- which you should
take note of- I had 18" to 2' chicken wire fences around each plant, but somehow some bastard rabbits ate the
newly growing plants (this was early July)- rabbits that could CLIMB FENCES!.

a very holy city. It is also known for high quality hashish. Although hash
from the area had been readily available in the late 70's, the Soviet invasion of that country greatly reduced
exports.
In 1985, an Afghan refugee told Nevil the (cannabis) fields around Mazar-i-Sharif were being
destroyed.
""That was what I needed to hear"" says Nevil, "" I caught the next plane to Pakistan to save the
strain"""
"""After being smuggled into a refugee camp in Peshawar while lying on the floor of a car, Nevil made contact
with a 30-year old Muslim fanatic who had a throbbing vein that ran from between his eyes straight up to his
forehead.
The man took a lump of black hash out of his pocket and told Nevil that it had been processed by
his uncle, a man known as Mister Hashish. Surrounded by four men pointing machine guns at him, Nevil set
about negotiating with Mr. Hashish, a Mujahedin commander, and finally persuaded him to send a squad of
his men 280 miles into Soviet occupied territory and come back with two kilos of healthy Mazari seeds.
Nevil added "" He thought I was ridiculous because I didn't want to buy hashish or opium. Nobody had ever
come out to buy seeds, and at first he had no idea what I was talking about. I tried there trying to explain
genetics to this tribal hash leader in sign language. When he finally figured out what I wanted, he asked too
much money. I took a zero off his price and gave him 10% up

seeds four days later."" - Nevil Schoenbottom, High Times Magazine, March 1987"
"If you got the real stuff from serious, the trick will be remaining patient while those babies mature. My AK-47
seeds produced two outstanding mothers, each of which are about the best smoke I or any
Seedbank content Seedbank of my friends
have ever had (plus a few other very interesting plants).
My seedlings didn't show a lot of vigor, but that may have been from overwatering on my part - I was
completely new at the whole thing. They tend to be pretty sativa in appearance, though I did get a couple of
slightly indica types. They show preflowers at about six weeks, and do best topped back before flowering.
They grow a lot, and stretch if you're not careful with them. My best smoking mothers weren't great yielders,
but they were tall. Just not great branching. Best to grow them SOG with tight spacing. Although I did get one
mother that branched like crazy, but the buds were stringy and stemmy and I won't be growing her out again."
"I never had any problems with infestations or nutrients. You can give them high nutrient doses and they do
fine. Flowering time tends to be long, between 56-70 days, depending on the mother, although you can go
short, but it hurts the yield. Yields in general were not great, but then neither is my growing technique and
experience. Others report pretty good yields from what I hear.
The high is just plain supreme. Very up, cerebral, but smooth and completely non-paranoid.

Started with 10 seeds all germinated. One sprout was lagging far behind the others and it was put out of its
misery. Ended up with 1 female, 5 males, and 3 herms.
Again, like the rest of the Positronic stock grown out so far, these plants were close to identical in appearance.
They looked very much like the NL x Shiva that also came from Posi. To bad it didn’t take after the NL x Shiva
in all respects.
The one female was not very impressive grown from seed and turned herm. The buzz was acceptable but it
grew like chit. Very airy bud with little resin and a lot of leaf. The buzz made it worth keeping for a harvest from
clone one time to see if it could redeem itself. Because the buzz got better it was given one more chance even
though it still showed male flowers, not a lot but too many. The second time grown from clone it showed male
flowers again and didn’t improve much in quality or growth. So now it’s dead.
To be fair it could be that this plant just couldn’t handle being flowered so early and freaked, doubtful but
possible." - flick

you have some form of an EXTRACTOR FAN or an OZONE
GENERATOR (Figure 4.1).
Figure 4.1 - This is a home made Ozone Generator. Picture by
Shipperke.
In some indoor set-ups a fan can be used to extract any
unwanted smell away from the corridor outside. It can be pumped
through a window or filter to another area where the smell will not be
noticed. Not only that but plants love fresh air and wind, so the fan can
do two things at once for you. An ‘Ozone Generator’ is a device that
can be purchased from most grow shops. It helps to get rid of cannabis
odor problems.

Apart from the smell problem the other problem you will have
is with fires. Now this is a very important thing to know about. Some
people growing indoors tend to use very shoddy lights with even
shoddier fixtures.
NEVER EVER USE ANY LIGHTING KIT AND FIXTURES
THAT ARE DAMAGED OR NOT SUITABLE FOR INDOOR
GROWING.
Many people have lost their homes because of this problem.
Taking short cuts with lighting and electricity is a big no no. I have
heard off and met many people who have come home only to find a
fire brigade outside who have just finished putting out the fire which
engulfed part of the house. The same thing happens in every case. The
grower gets closer and sees a number of police officers looking around
the room. The fire officer points to the cause of the fire - a half melted
light fixture with burnt out sockets. The officer looks around and sees
the plants all crispy and black.
They both know what this is all about.
Why do they know? Because they have seen it a hundred times before.
New Marijuana growers nearly always make the mistake of
creating inferior lighting set-ups. Needless to say that What Is The Sativa Indica Percentage Of Himalayan Gold Marijuana this is because of
three things. (1) They don’t have the right information because of
government censorship laws. (2) They do not have the money to invest
in a proper lighting system. (3) They just want to grow their pot quick
and fast and cheaply. We will discuss proper lighting systems in

another chapter.
OUTDOOR SECURITY
As we have said before the best way to secure your outdoor
garden plants is via a shelter. One must also remember that some
outdoor plants do smell and this can carry over a short distance given
the right wind and the right climate. Most people would not know
what Germinate home Germinate home How home Germinate home Marijuana the smell is but some DO! Many growers get around this problem
by growing cannabis plants that have very little smell during
flowering.
These types of strains are listed by most seed-banks. Again
you should ask about strains that have low smell levels. All Cannabis
plants smell to some degree during flowering.

syringe. Often, it takes several tries to get the spores fully broken apart
and well mixed.
If the spores in the print have been dried and are not fresh, it is best to
wait six hours to use the spore syringe. The spores need to rehydrate. If
your in a hurry, the spores can still rehydrate in the culture jars.
How to Make a Spore Print
Once you have a mature mushroom, you are in a position to make a
spore print and use it to continue cultivation of mushrooms. The cap
should be harvested when the mushroom cap has become flat or is
starting to invert.
Sterility is key. Adaptation-25 Be careful not to do anything that will
compromise the sterility of your spore print. The typical procedure is
to cut the stalk off of a mature mushroom very close to the cap. A
sterilized knife or razor blade is used to do this. The cap is then laid on
a sterile piece of tissue paper or card stock and a small glass set over it.
The glass is needed for two reasons. First, it keeps the spore print
insulated from airborne contaminates. Secondly, it helps keep the
humidity high so the mushroom cap can continue to live and drop its
spores. One note of caution. Some humidity usually needs to be

How To Grow Magic Mushrooms The Magic Mushroom Growers Guide (page 3)
allowed to escape. You want the environment inside the glass to be
slightly less humid than the environment in which the mushroom was
grown. If you have problems getting a cap to drop its spores, try using
a piece of paper for the print that fits entirely inside the glass and
spreading out a wash cloth flat on the table. Let the edge of the glass
seal to the wash cloth instead of the paper. This will usually allow
enough humidity to escape to cause the cap to drop spores.
If everything goes well, after a day or two the cap will drop its spores.
Adaptation-26 There will be a purple-brown dust underneath the cap.
These are the spores.
Eye glass lens paper is good source of sterile tissue paper. A box of
waxy tissue paper that deli's use to pick up donuts and rolls is another
excellent source of sterile tissue paper. Card stock (such as a recipe
card) is a bit easier to use later when you want to prepare a spore
syringe, but you have to expend the extra effort up front to sterilize it.
To use card stock, place in a 425 degree F. oven for 15 minutes. Let it
cool with a glass over it before you place the cap on it.
Once you have a spore print on the paper, remove the glass and cap.
Fold the spore print in half and seal the edges so air can not get in. A
piece of scotch tape on each side will do nicely. The spores will stay
viable for 18 months if they are kept in a cool, dry and dark spot. If
you place a small amount of desiccant in the bottom of a film container
and place a cotton ball on top of the desiccant, you have an ideal
container to keep the spore print. The cotton ball will keep the
desiccant from touchi Piece of crap - hard to clone. I grew a few seeds from a seedbank selling Sensi BB, and I’m glad I didn’t

setting or taken by an unstable personality, precipitate a temporary state which could, by
some definition, conceivably be labeled as something potentially dangerous. In general,
users do not take the propagandized "dangers" of the drug seriously, since they have spent
hundreds and thousands of hours high, and have seen dozens of others high, with little or
no ill effect.
There is more-or-less complete agreement on the relative harm of the drug: that
marijuana is, for instance, far less dangerous than liquor.5] Another comparison often
made is that marijuana is less (or no more) dangerous than driving an automobile. Both of
these arguments are open to empirical test and could, conceivably, be supported or refuted
with data.
The alcohol-marijuana comparison carries a great deal of weight among potheads. They
feel that they have a solid case for the irrationality of the marijuana prohibition if liquor is,
in fact, more dangerous than their own choice of drug. They contend that drinking carries
with it very real dangers (although a high proportion of marijuana smokers also drink,
very few do so heavily), whereas marijuana is, at worst, no more dangerous, and at best,
completely innocuous. "... alcohol is frequently productive of a hangover, cirrhosis of the

A marijuana user, in fact, feels a sense of superiority to the liquor drinker, a feeling that
can be labeled moral, ideological and cultural snobbery. There is the faint hint of religious
zeal in claiming a convert, of winning proselyte from "lush." The fact that so many young
Americans once involved with alcohol are becoming "heads" is confirmation to the
potsmoker that his intoxicating agent is spiritually preferable. The marijuana user will
refer to the liquor drinker in condescending terms as lacking in style, sophistication,
imagination, polish, subtlety, and taste. He is gross, obn Most of the plants I

I created a 'goblet' effect outwards around the top of the wire-tube, and this stopped the damage. Having been eaten back to Bubbleberry about 18" in early

were not rained on VERY heavily, and for the last month of their lives they were Homegrowing in perpetual cloud/100%

Ed Rosenthal says Early Pearl came from the Midwest, but was a cross of Early Girl and Polly, an early
California sativa.”
“I've grown this both inside and out. If you do a search, you'll probably find some previous posts that I’ve
written on this type; In brief, it is effectively pure sativa (though actually has early girl crossed in, very
recessive in all respects). Inside and out, it likes to grow large. Stretch continues right through flowering, which
was a respectable 8 weeks (the only virtue carried over from early girl). Buds are thin, green, sweet and sharp
smell, very good sativa high- quite psychoactive (trippy?). Little paranoia, very long high. Unless you grow very
big plants, yield is low, as could be expected from such a plant. At present I'm having great trouble with my EP
mother- it has decided to auto-flower. After re-potting the 10-inch plant into a 1.75 gallon container,
re-vegging started, but now it looks like it's going to go back into flower again (this is on 24/0). Root mass is
HUGE.” – retro13 While the 5-HT precursors tryptophan and 1-5-HTP cause an increase in serum prolactin concentration, a combination of 1-5-HTP with a peripheral decarboxylase inhibitor was found to reduce the serum prolactin concentration. This combination seemed to behave like a DA agonist. This effect is not produced by the decarboxylase inhibitor per se. A possible explanation is that 5-HTP is converted to 5-HT in CA-ergic neurons, that 5-HT supersedes the CA from the stores, and that some of the CA reach the synaptic cleft and stimulate CA receptors. Another possible explanation is that 5-HTP decarboxylase is centrally inhibited as well, and that an effect of 5-HTP itself is involved here. In view of the observations made it is doubtful whether the therapeutic effect of 5-HTP combined with a peripheral decarboxylase inhibitor in depressions and myoclonus can in fact be atributed to activation of central serotonergic systems. The smoke is good- smooth, sweet, menthol/lemony. It has a lot of central and south American Sativa in its
ancestry. The high is long lasting and 'happy'- a day-time smoke. The buds are long and thin. I noticed two
phenotypes (ratio 14:2)- 14 plants had broad, long leaves, high vigor, high yield; 2 were much shorter
(finishing at 4-5'), more compact, started flowering earlier, but didn’t mature as well, more susceptible to mold,
thinner leaves. Some of the large phenotype flowered with pistils the color of pink-grapefruit.
Its not the easiest plant I've grown, and this may account for why its not more common, but its well worth it. It
definitely is mold resistant beyond any doubt. These plants get the yield from the size of the plant, not the
density of the buds, so try to ensure a good size by July, and DONT pinch it out. I'm hoping for 3 or 4 ounces
per plant this year- I've put them into my best patch.” – retro13 Friend has been growing supposed BB for a while now, and let me say that the BB from Sensi I grew and
selected a perfect mother (maybe just great luck?), but mine sure is different. Much greener, tastier, more
potent, amazing. 8-10 in my opinion. But even Sensi says that 25% are "Special". So I'd advise germing the
whole batch (pack ) of seed as to give yourself a better shot at a primo Mom! Good luck dude. If you never
grew any exotics before, try an easier strain. You really kind of need to know what your doing (selection wise).”

Blow-by-blow description of the generations:
P.50 = Heavy, single-cola type plants with mellow high (too much influence from the ShivaSkunk) Sweet fruity
scent/flavor. Unstable in most traits - for example, 10 days difference in fastest/slowest maturation period in a
group of 20 seedlings.
P.75 = Plants leaning MUCH more in the direction of Princess in floral cluster and bud structure, scent/flavor
turned more "tropical" like pineapple. The stability was becoming better - two major phenotypes; Canabisse En Aeroponic short & dense
(potent too) or tall/HUGE (Not so potent).
P.88 = Renamed Cinderella 88 when first released on the market. It grows fast and produces excellent yields of
FROSTY buds in 7 weeks! Generally uniform seedlings with minor differences in floral formation and some height
variance, but the smoke is quite consistent from all plants - Dense, heavy nuggets of fruity scented & flavored
(like wild berries) and covered in resin glands, the dried buds have distinctly ORANGE pistils.
ng lasting cerebral high. She is tall with large girth
and giant calyxes. The aroma is spicy with a slight sandalwood taste. This girl can satisfy any connoisseurs'
taste. So wake and bake with a bud of AK.” Hemp Seeds – seedbank catalog
“These dark green buds are very resin-y and have bunches of short, red hairs throughout. Some buds are
less green with more hairs. This hydro has a very pungent, sweet, skunky green smell that will make your
mouth water and will put a smile on your face. One or two small, crystally stems to chew on are all the
non-smokables you get. The fluffy, compact buds break up nicely and will leave plenty of polleny crystals on
your fingers. The smooth, skunky smoke tastes sweet and flowery, though it is expansive in the lungs and a
bit of a cougher. Overall, the taste is outstanding. Not overly visual, a strongly mellowing high ensues that is
conducive to listening to music, watching a movie or maybe hanging out at a Coffeeshop. This bud could get
you to open your bag of Oreo's or order 'patat' on your way home. ****

“Princess was obtained from growing out seeds found in buds of Jack Herer Aeroponiccanabisse that was purchased in Amsterdam at
the "Sensi-Smile" coffee shop, an authorized outlet of Sensi Seed Bank. Thus, it is considered to be an f2
generation Jack Herer. The seeds were found seedsdirect only in the deepest part of the buds indicating that the father was
an unusually early-maturing JH that the growers missed at first.” - MrSoul
I wanted to "cube" Princess but add a little beef to her branches because the buds were always too heavy at
harvest and branches needed staking to keep from flopping over. I crossed my ShivaSkunk female with one of
the males from the same group of seeds that Princess came from. THIS cross produced a male which was then
crossed to Princess, creating "P.50" (using a shorthand notation I developed to indicate the fraction of Princess
genes in the cross).
Each generation is the result of crossing a male from the previous generation to Princess herself (incestuous, I
know). Afoaf has a Posi Big Bud Mom that is 70% pistils ripe, with cloudy heads in about 43-45 days and it yields real

Broken up, these buds release the scent of sweet freshly cut grass or even hay with some slightly skunky
