Episode notes
Self-Taught Cactus Cultivation
- Mhanu started growing many cacti (peyote, San Pedro, Bolivian torch) because he wanted a sacred cactus experience and couldn't arrange one through his ceremony group.
- He traded marijuana for cuts, froze them, and learned preparation tips from a knowledgeable young grower.
Prep Cactus With Freeze, Acid, Long Simmer
- Freeze cactus before peeling to loosen the waxy outer layer and make peeling easier after thawing.
- Blend, simmer, strain repeatedly and use acid (lemon/vinegar) to extract mescaline; expect a 24-hour+ cookdown.
Medicine Weeds Out Unsuitable Participants
- A participant accused Mhanu of carrying negative energy and threatened to cancel the ceremony, which later revealed the accuser was deflecting his own issues.
- That person ultimately didn't attend and Mhanu interpreted it as the medicine starting to 'weed out' who should be present.
