I have a bunch of dried San Pedro cuttings that I have not delved into yet. I am wondering what would be the best method of preparation? Should I try to chew and eat them dried or should I try to make a tea. I also have no idea how much I should eat in dried grams. Inches would be easy but alas that measurement is not an option.

SP potency varies from not at all to as potent or more so than average bridgesii.
how much length was there? I would divide the weight by the length and take a foot worth.
if it's powdered It may be easiest to just moisten it slightly and wash down doe balls of cacti otherwise it would be hard to filter if you made tea.

100 dried grams per dose is the general starting area. I would make a tea using that concentrated lemon juice stuff that come in a bottle shaped like a lemon from the grocery store. Don't use the whole bottle of the lemon juice. Just add some to the tea water. It will help bring out the goodies. I would use a minimum amount of water when you make the tea. Simmer that shit 4 hours. Then strain out all the cactus goop through a t-shirt and squeeze the shit out of the shirt to get ever last bit of the goodness from the cactus, then boil and stain again.

Knowing more about the origin and preparation method for this cactus would tell more about it's potential potency, but it's really a crap shoot. If it's super potent, then 100 grams could be an aweful lot, but most of the dried chips from Peru I've had weren't particularly potent and I would agree that generally 100 grams would be a good starting dose. If you're not sure, I would suggest starting smaller like 35 grams or so, and you can always increase for your next time.
