I joined the forums in hope of being able to learn how to cultivate shrooms, but fortunately, got addicted to this site, and discovered so many more plants that are easy to grow, given the right conditions. Due to me living with my mother, I have decided that I will be doing a pretty nice sized opium grow instead of a shroom grow, because it is too late to produce shrooms outside. Not sure how many I want to do yet, but I will have that figured out later on. I am also thinking about growing some Psychotria alba, or vidiris, for DMT making. I'm not sure though. Anyways, I just wanted to share with you guys what I plan on having in my garden in a couple of weeks, and wanted to see if you guys could give me some advice in growing one, or both of the plants that I intend to produce.
