1. Climate zone (zone 1, etc)i have noticed this species can be grown in many climate zones.i live in the desert zone 11. 2. Is the plant an Annual, Perennial, Biennial, etc. this is deffinately an evergreen? scratches head. 3. Best way to start from seeds. mix up a nice loamy sand with some good presoaked moist peat moss (peat has anti-fungal properties)plus fine light weight perlite,not pumice.place mixed soil in a plastic container like a zip,can't think of their name,they make zip baggies also.clear plastic storage containers.punch holes in the bottom for drainage.add medium to container,pack down medium lightly.i make a little indention in the soil every cm. so i know the seed gets in the indention.do not cover seed with soil,just press in a bit more.creates a little water collecting area after placing 1 seed in every indention, and covering container with container lid with 1 hole poked into lid at each end.place in a nice well lit warm spot.78 d. humidity inside little container probably 100% if done properly.flouro's work well for a nice climate with also using a ceramic heat lamp in cold climates. they will be grafted or transplanted before crowding which would take years.take in mind that lophophora williamsii and other var.spp. grow a carrot like tap root unlike trichocereus pachanoi/peruvianus.i usually use a medium deep pot for lophs. such as 4" deep clay pots.tricho's get 5 gal. plastic pots or in the ground. 4. Frost - will it survive a heavy/light/long frost? frost hardy 5. How much shade/sun? partial sun unless acclimated 6. How often does it get watered?mine get watered in warm months once every 2-3 days depending on weather. 7. How long from the time you plant the seed til its ready for (partial or full?) harvest?seed to harvest-7-15+ years.grafted 3-7 years. 8. Dormancy-seeds probably using cold stratification would maybe have better germ. rates but i'm not greedy and just do them this way as i explain. 9. Ideal soil mix good loamy sand,peat,perlite,not pumice 10. Ideal fertilizer if any- earth juice when 2 months old 11. Container growing tips- i have covered this. 12. Common pests and diseases to watch out for. Also any other sensitivities the plant may have. don't over water after seedling stage. 13. Health warnings (IE: wear gloves when harvesting tobacco)can't think of any? 14. Ideal propagation methods i think i covered that? 15. If indoors, what type of lighting should be used? flouro's

sorry people. here is what i did. i use a mixture of sand from surrounding cacti,plenty of perlite,and rich potting soil.i like to use those zippy clear storage containers with several holes poked in to the bottom for drainage.2 holes in each lid,one on each side to vent excess humidity.
place soil mix into containers,spray soil mix with a diluted fungicide.i make small indention's into the soil like i stated before in last post.just press seeds in a bit.DO NOT BURY. light dependent seeds.i spray again several times to insure container soil is moist through out but not wet.i place on lid and germinate under 24 hours of flouro's until spring is here.i usually get pretty good germ. rates at 75 f.container has around 100% humidity since lid is on.i let them sit undisturbed for about a week and check them.usually the containers after a week will have a few sprouts,and more to come for the next few weeks,sometimes months.usually weeks.i have noticed better germ rates without using a propagation heat mat.
i never germinate or start anything outdoor!

yea I'm interested in kanna too. where did you get seeds from rah? and what are the chances I could entice you to sell me a clipping?
