Ive done peruvian torch twice before, I didnt prepare it at all, unless you count mixing with OJ :) but I did trip balls... My question is where did you find 5 feet of san pedro for $30?

If you try and eat it straight up I would take a tube of Oragel and numbing the shit out of your tounge. It taste horrid. Drink tons of orange juice up to it, but dont eat any food. =D Makes for amazing tripping. The Oragel is a theory by me, You shouldnt be able to taste anything if you shwish it around your mouth for a minute!!

Erowid.com has directions on how to extract what you want. Consists of boiling and then filtering. End result is liquid with all the good shit in it.

so i payed a very fair price huh? i found them at a garage sale/cactus sale while out training from a landscaper slash hippie he had more. im going to get another soon they were all 5 feet for $30 or much taller ones for a bit more. anyways it seems this is a good easy way for a mescaline trip. but different prep methods keep potency high while minimizing nausea i know of some methods i have looked up all are somewhat similar. im just trying to find the most tested and least wasteful method. i have heard nausea is worse with peyote than with san pedro prepped correctly. any other tips welcome.

You should buy one and beat it with a chain and stab it everyday until you are ready to use it. They produce more alkaloids when stressed and damaged.

now that i know what they look like i find them all the time i found six cuttings while out riding. san pedro is literally all over socal. i wonder if peruvian torch is as prevalent around here and if one is more potent than the other.

yeah to my knowledge there are 3 mescaline containing cacti species. peyote of course and san pedro which i find all over the place grown decoratively and peruvian torch. the other day i was riding by a ranch/horse stable and along the fence for over 100 yards were dozens of san pedro cacti some had fallen over and snapped off the main plant so i grabbeb some. there were so many no one will even notice. anyways the only one i have not seen is peruvian torch i wonder if its as commom as san pedro in socal.
