dastats, you should read the book Tales of a shaman's apprentice by mark j. Plotkin, PH.D. its an amazing book about a doctor who lived in the amazon for about 15 years with different tribes. talks about all kinds of plants mostly searching for new medicines in the amazon, but it also talks about addictive compounds, dangerous drugs, toxic principles in deadly poisons, powerful hallucinogens (mescaline and psilocybin)

and by the way, anyone growing a mj plant, or a San pedro in there back yard is a legit ethnobotanist to me.
as for a Legit botanists, anyone growing a tomato plant and works in the lawn and garden at walmart definitely qualifies as a legit botanist =D

hahaha, right on guys. i would like to say everyone is a botonist here. For sure. but when it comes to technicalities, how many people here are truely a scientific mind in the matter. I wish I could post my garden. I'me living in a 1 bedroom apratment, southfacing. I'm attempting to grow all my summer and fall veggies. consider it an urban experiment. I will work on a working model and do my research into the matter. Hopefully people will dig it and adopt it in due time. Life is really simple, but the world makes everything complicated sometimes. Thanks for the responses guys.

Man some of those people don't even know what fucking peat pots are! You need to get your employer to better train some of your co-workers. No offence meant to you.
