Lophophora Fricii dosage?

[arne]

Hi, I bought a lophophora fricii cactus. It's supposed to be around 13 years old.
It looks not unlike this one:

Would this be enough for a trip?

On erowid they're talking about 3-6 buttons for a light trip (though it does not say which kind of cactus). This cactus I have is not just one button I hope?

about 1% of the alkaloids should be mescaline, mostly its pellotine
so they might be .001-.01% mescaline by dry weight

where as Wilie will have 30% plus and be .9-6.3% by dry weight

Fricii and Diffusa are best used in combo with san pedro, or extracted M as a catalyst, as neither have much mescaline

little entheo value by itself i'm afraid, that erowid link isn't for fricii

It's a pretty little cactus though, just keep it and nurture it with love.

I'd advise seeking out San Pedro (T. pachanoi) or Peruvian Torch (T. peruvianus) if your looking for legal mescaline cactus. I used to use San Pedro all the time, infact its an incredibly common ornamental cactus where I live (northern california), and when I was young & dumb, I used to just go around the neighborhoods and hack off a few feet whenever I saw a big one. Don't do this! its incredibly disrespectful as San Pedro takes years to mature.

But, its readily available online, at garden stores (even home depot) and everywhere inbetween. I've consumed it in every method from just blending it up and drinking it to acid/base extractions of the mescaline. Its strong as hell!
