I have a few P. Viridis clones that only showed acceptable growth under a 150 watt HPS.. they're painfully hard to start from seed as I've tried twice with 2 vendors and have had no luck.  Best of luck. I'll be keeping my eye out for that log :smile:

Do you mean fresh, as in ripe (Psychotria) berries... or fresh, as in freshly dried seeds?

It's best to germinate ripened berries as opposed to dried seed in my experience... it takes a long time for the berries to germinate. You shouldn't give up on them though... keep watering them and eventually they'll pop up.

Actually, the easiest method of Psychotria propagation is leaf cuttings... If you have access to fresh (non-dried) leaves, take them and snap them along the spine (don't tear the leaves into pieces, just make a few breaks in the leaves) and place them in potting soil, water them when the soil dries... You may want to keep them under a humidity tent, depending on what zone your in.

Basically, the breaks in the leaf act like nodes from which the leaf will take root. It takes some time for them to sprout roots but once they do, they are easy to care for... I used to have some huge P. viridis specimens but had to give them away when I moved. I also kind of lost interest in Ayahuasca, although I wish I still had at least one of my Psychotrias...

I orderd some fresh psychotria berries, and they germinated after about 6-8 weeks.
I just put them in soil + little vermiculite above. The temperature when I planted was a bit low, and became worm later.
I think They germinate with great success from fresh seeds.
They grow painfully slow though.

So very true! Once they are established, they seem to speed things up a bit though...

These turn into healthy plants?

Here is a link to the original tek that I learned how to propagate P. viridis leaves from: psychotria propagation - naked with a monkey!

Unfortunately, it's very old, so the pictures are no longer visible...

Are those truly just leaves or is there a node under there somewhere? O_o

No node.  The teks usually say to try and rip the petiole with some stem tissue but most of the leaves I used probably didn't get any stem tissue on them.  The roots grow out of the end of the petiole as well as the eventual shoots.  The key with these is patience.

Here's another picture that shows how it looks like under the soil:

Great pics PatternOfChaos!

I used to propagate Gloxinia in the same way.
