San Pedro Cactus Plant Cuttings

The San Pedro cactus Echinopsis pachanoi, syn. Trichocereus pachanoi, is a fast-growing columnar cactus native to the Andes of Peru and Ecuador. It is often confused with its close relative, the Peruvian Torch cactus.

The plant is light to dark green, sometimes glaucous, and having 4-8 (usually 5-7) ribs. Groups of 1-4 small, yellow to light brown, spines are located at the nodes which are spaced evenly (approximately 2 cm apart) along the ribs. San Pedro can grow up to 5 meters tall and have multiple branches, usually extending from the base.

San Pedro contains a number of psychoactive alkaloids, including the well-studied chemical mescaline (0.11 - 2.3%), and also 3,4-dimethoxyphenethylamine, 4-hydroxy-3-methoxyphenethylamine, 3-hydroxy-4,5-dimethoxyphenethylamine, 4-hydroxy-3,5-dimethoxyphenethylamine, anhalonidine, anhalinine, hordenine, tyramine, and 3-methoxytyramine.

Mescaline (3,4,5-trimethoxyphenethylamine) is a psychedelic drug (or entheogen), which is also found in some other species of genus Echinopsis (i.e. Echinopsis lageniformis, Echinopsis peruviana, and Echinopsis scopulicola) and the species Lophophora williamsii (peyote).

Anecdotal evidence suggests that the highest concentrations of active substances are found in the layer of green photosynthetic tissue just beneath the skin.

 There are various mescaline extraction techniques, simple (boiling in water 5 to 7 hours) and complex (such as an acid-base extraction), the latter technique yielding a material with a significantly higher concentration of mescaline - this is probably the most common source of black market mescaline.

You're bidding on a, hard grown, 20 cm San Pedro PLANT cutting. It is a stem cutting and not a tip cutting.

Please allow about 7 days for cuttings to callous over before shipment. We'll supply you with all the potting & care instructions.

Please note that shipping charges are high due to the weight of the cuttings. We will combine your orders so you can save on delivery costs. Please ask if you need a quote.
