Don't water it for about three months.

In dry periods the alkaloids are rising in the cacti, I think it is because in dry periods other animals start thinking of eating a cacti because it contains moist. After a few months of non water the San Pedro turns blue-ish. This indicates that the concentration off alkaloids is increasing. It is obvious not to do this trick in ful sun. I place the San Pedro in a more shady environment for a long time, it does not matter if they shrinck cause you don't need the water. MeneerCactus www.MeneerCactus.nl

I found this while looking at the Minds High web-site. Now the question is where do you get dopamine? Increasing the potency of psychoactive cacti There are several factors which influence production of mescaline and related alkaloids in cacti. Presence of a wide variety of trace minerals is import- ant. Occasional watering with Hoagland A-Z trace mineral concentrate provides these minerals. Combine 1 part concentrate with 9 parts water and water cacti with this once every two months. Experiments conducted by Rosenberg, Mclaughlin and Paul at the University of of Michigan, Ann Arbor in 1966 demonstrated that dopamine is a precursor of mescaline in the peyote cactus. Tyramine and dopa were also found to be mescaline precursors, but not as immediate and efficient as dopamine. It appears that in the plant tyosine breaks down to become tyramine and dopa. These then recombine to form dopamine which is converted to nor-mescaline and finally to mescaline. One can take advantage to this sequence by inject- ing each peyote plant with dopamine 4 weeks prior to harvesting. Much of the dopamine will convert to mescaline during this time, giving a considerable increase in the alkaloid of the plant. Prepare a saturated solution of free base dopamine in a .05 N solution of hydrochloric acid and inject 1-2 cc into the root of each plant and the same amount into the green portion above the root. Let the needle penetrate to the center of the plant, inject slowly and allow the needle to remain in place a few seconds after injection. It is best to deprive the plant of water for 1-2 weeks before injection. This makes the plant tissues take up the injection fluids more readily. If dopamine is not available, a mixture of tyramine and dopa can be used instead 6 weeks before harvesting for comparable results. San Pedro and other mescaline- bearing cacti can be similarly treated for increased mescaline production. Inject at the base of the plant and again every 3-4 inches following a spiral pattern up the length of the plant. A series of booster injections can be given to any of these cacti every 6-8 weeks and once again 4 weeks before harvesting for greater mescaline accumulation. It is also possible to increase the macromerine and nor-macromerine content of Donana cacti using tyramine or DL-norepinephrine as precursors. Injections should be given 20-25 days before harvesting. Series of injections can be given 45 days apart for higher alkaloid accumulation. Peace!

I did some searches and found this
MUCUNA PRURIENS (Velvet Bean) contains significant amounts of L-Dopa

You can buy L-Dopa in pure form tho, just do a search. It won't be as efficient as Dopamine, but L-Dopa should still do the trich.
