BACK COVER #
Peyote has been used ceremonially by the native peoples of the Americas as a spiritual medicine for close to 3,000 years.

Peyote and Other Psychoactive Cacti is a concise and readable guide to the art of cultivating peyote, San Pedro, and the numerous other entheogenic cacti. In light of the possible extinction of wild peyote, this book is a timely resource for those who feel a responsibility to preserve this sacred medicine. This revised underground classic describes:
  • the various methods of using these cacti
  • cultivating cacti from seed or cutting
  • increasing the yield of mescaline and other alkaloids
  • extracting and increasing the yield of mescaline and other mixed alkaloids
  • the current legal status of these entheogenic cacti
