I think you need to grow the plant yourself and then "dye your sweater".

But seriously, if I buy mimosa bark from celestial source, am I not gunna be able to dye my sweater now, or do you guys assume it will still come?
Other vendors should still be in business as a decision hasn't been made on the case. Depending on how the trial goes, things may continue to go as usual. That is, until the feds try again with a stronger case. In any case, I think this a good time for people to start investing in live plants.

Many of the vendors I know personally have removed many of their products from their site, such as Trichocereus cacti.

I'd like to grow a lot of plants myself. But I still live with my parents, so its fairly inconvenient. But I'd still like to dye my sweater before then.
Edit: wait a minute. I know why I decided not to grow mimosa now. Because the part thats harvested is like the roots. That doesn't seem convenient at all. Not to mention I have no idea how to take root bark off of a plant. And it'd probably be horrible quality, and then my sweater won't be dark enough.

It's not worth the legality of these amazing plants for people like you to get high on DMT. Grow it yourself or don't fucking do it.

I somehow doubt one person buying some jurema for a sweater is going to drastically change the legal situation. Needless to say I was supriozed to find it to be legal. When it comes down to it, if you want to get high on DMT phalaris is the easiest thing to get a hold of and that is probably never going to be illegal because it is so widespread.

One person. No.
100s of people buying Mimosa and other plant intended for drug-use is what got BBB in trouble.

Nice thread coatl, are you happy that I told you that they got raided? Yep, it probably isn't a good idea to buy dried plant material which contains illegal compounds. It is a legal gray area. Even if you are using it as a pigment in clothing dying, like many people do.

just out of curiosity, how do you die a clothes with root bark?
so if the outcome of this in unfavorable, does that mean selling stuff like mhrb and yopo will be illegal? or even mg seeds or san p??

seems so I don't see how they'll be able to get away with it, considering that dmt's everywhere and everyone who's anyone grows lsa and mescaline containing plants... this is fascism. the dea and fda are evil.

Yeah, mescaline is contained in most cacti too. Cacti use it as a defense mechanisms to bugs, squirrels, and drift. Bugs don't like bitter tastes.

No I am NOT happy the got raided.
I am very sad, disappointed and afraid of what is going to happen to these amazing plants.
I am very strongly consider moving outside the USA... is there anybody who would be willing to go with me?
