Ethnobotanical Stimulants?

I am regular user of stimulants, but they are getting so damn expensive recently. So i have been looking around alot for any ethnobotanicals that have a stimulant effect similar to cocaine or speed.
So far i have found:
Kratom (Mitragyna speciosa) Kola Nut (Cola nitida) Yerba Mate (Ilex paraguariensis) Ma Huang (Ephedra sinica) Khat (Catha edulis)
Has anyone tried these? Got any suggestions?
Cheers!

khat can be nice. my buddy would make a tea outta the leafs , work for hours . like coffee w/ out jitters really, some mild euphoria. or eat as quid w/ lemon. weee...... use to be able to get it in nyc, some african/somalii shops. or grow yur own nice lookin' plant too. cuttings are your best bet.

Indeed there´s not much buzzing, and it´s not really something to party with.
Actually I forgot, my PREFERRED ethno stimulant is SAN PEDRO, end of the story.

I heard Ephedra species are really slow growing and hard to keep alive.

Trichos as a stimulant???
I have yet to try cacti, is it a good stimulant?
My mate said: One small dose is like speed plus another small dose is like ecstacy and a full dose is like acid.
I thought he was full of shit, but is that actually true???

iboga alcaloids and voccana africana, but i prefer, the psiquedelic i can have the effect i want , dream, alert, trypy ,or beyong, just no one is the same , and depend on dose and your iniciative way of thinking ,for me iboga is somethig else not a true psiquedelic by the way i dont like stimulant ,that i why prefer psiquedelic since once i got bored of the alert stage i can change to what i want . but once in a stimulant you can only be stimulated, boring all the best

IME they are easy as hell to keep alive. At least after they've reached 1month age.

Yeah the natural habitat is mostly temperate zones if I'm not mistaken...
But this is starting to derail a bit. If anyone wants to talk about growing ephedra another thread is probably advisable. If not we can leave it at this.
