How can that list possibly be missing Psychology?!

Anyway, of course we are cool with you posting here. Welcome to Bluelight.

 

[MistaJeff]

Hello and welcome to Bluelight.

 

[Teotzlcoatl]

Thanks Jeff!

Hey it says I can't PM until I become... something...

When is that?

At 10 posts or something?

 

[Bomboclat]

Bluelighter status is after 50 posts. But dont rush to get there, you have time :D

 

[Teotzlcoatl]

Can I ask about rules here?

Like is trading legal plants allowed?

Let's say I want to trade somebody a Habanero pepper plant for a Basil plant... is that ok?

 

[Teotzlcoatl]

Also... can we suggest vendors here?

For example... Company "X" has the best Caapi seeds!

 

[MistaJeff]

You should read the following before you make any more posts.

[jackie jones]

Sourcing is against BL policy. We do not want to be responsible for anyone fucking their self up. Have a read through the Bluelight user agreement.

 

[Teotzlcoatl]

Ok.

Whats going to be the best place to post about psychoactive plants?

Just in the Psychedelics forum? Seems like it's all about acid and RCs.

 

[MistaJeff]

The best place to post about psychedelics is the psychedelics forum. Most of the discussions right now may be about LSD and RC's but the conversations are in a constant state of change. Also use the search engine if you are looking for something in particular. There are already threads about almost any topic and it is more often than not more appropriate to post in an already made thread than making you own.

Man your well versed

Glad to have you here

Teotzlcoatl if you don't mind me asking bow much do you read up on the forms of Buddhism and is there particular brand of religion/philosophy that you adhere to?
I absolutely love conversing with people about such subjects and finding out why they believe what they do

 

[Teotzlcoatl]

My favorite religion is Taoism, with Baha'i, Buddhism and Jainism a close 2nd.

 

[ladyinthesky]

All questions will be answered here and here
enjoy

 

[Teotzlcoatl]

so what's new with y'all?

 

[Teotzlcoatl]

What have you done?

Participated in botanical collection expeditions. Had my name published in books for plant collections and I'm getting a degree in ethnobotany from the uni of HW.

I'm going to Peru in April with the botanical preservation corps.

Last Oct. I went to the Outer Banks and collected many, many other plants.

I have plants with my collection numbers attached.

etc.

I'm trying to do more...

Also I've donated fair amounts of money to Erowid, MAPS and to the Peyote Way Church of God (instead of spending them on drugs like you told me you have done swilliow).

I've been a mod at Salvia Source for over a year and I'm admin of my own ethnobotanical site

i have over 30,000 online posts relating to plants
