I would like to see this site and this forum get more action. Anyway, here are some recent additions:
Brugmansia sanguinea
Sida c
Brugmansia, Sida, and Coleus group shot
Mimosa hostilis, pudica, and verrucosa; Acacia maidenii. They are all dead thanks to spider mites and a crazy ice storm and 2 week power outage.
Salvia d (I got it today. It'll perk up soon enough.
 
Papaver somniferum (opium poppy) babies and dried pods
 
I have caapi and more goodies coming soon. Its going to be a good grow season. I feel it.

I would like to do an a/b extraction on the Coleus. Given that the fresh leaves are whats active, it seems like the way to go. If anyone knows where to find an a/b tek for it, please let me know.

2 week power outage? Sounds brutal.
I had such a nice brug last year but decided to see if it'd last overwinter here in zone 8b (it didn't). They're pretty fun to grow. I got mine as a little barely rooted cutting and it grew quite a bit with very large leaves and hardly any fussiness.

Yeah the power outage really hurt my feelings. I've got a bunch more stuff coming to me. Its going to be a problem once I have to bring it all in  . If anyone knows where I can find live Mandrake plants plz PM me. If I can get one, and you helped me out, I'll send you a very special present.

It sounds interesting alright. Effects similar to Psilocybin according to wiki. Do you have to do an extraction or can you make a tea/just eat a load of the plant matter?

I am definitely taking a trip to my local greenhouse to pick one of those up tomorrow.
That is very interesting.
Apparently, Coleus are used as a substitution in Shamanic rituals for Salvia Divinorum, but with Psilocybin effects.

I saw a young guy from where i grew up on coleus. Dude was tripping his nuts off hard core. I think he ended up at the psych ward for the night cause his dumb ass was walking round town trippin.
The ironic part was i had a bunch of huge coleus in my window. A day or so after he was released him and the friend strolled by and saw the coleus and stopped outside my window. When i asked if i could do something for them,since they were staring through my window, he said no but that the plant in my window was what he was tripping on.
After that i did a little research on it and read it was used in shamanic rituals. I Have never tried it cause that dude i witnessed was way out there!! And looked a little more then i really want.
