What is Peyote?
Peyote is a small, spineless cactus native to the Chihuahuan Desert of northern Mexico and the southern United States. Its scientific name is Lophophora williamsii, and it grows slowly, forming rounded, button-like tops that are often bluish-green. The cactus contains a powerful hallucinogen called mescaline, known for producing vivid visions and deep introspective experiences.
A Glimpse Into History and Tradition
Peyote has been used ceremonially for thousands of years by Native American and Mexican tribes. Archaeological evidence dates its use back over 5,000 years. It remains central to spiritual and healing practices that have been passed down through generations.
Spiritual Significance
For many, Peyote represents a bridge between the human and the divine. Ceremonial use often includes singing, prayer, and storytelling—tools that help participants navigate inner visions and spiritual truths.
How Peyote Works: Mescaline and Its Effects
Mescaline, the active compound in Peyote, is a naturally occurring psychedelic that interacts with serotonin receptors in the brain. Effects typically begin 1–2 hours after ingestion and can last up to 12 hours. Users report:

Growing Peyote from Seeds: A Step-by-Step Guide
1. Choose Your Seeds
We offer a selection of Peyote seed strains, including classic Lophophora williamsii and rarer regional variants. Each has its own growth pattern and characteristics.
2. Prepare the Soil
Peyote thrives in sandy, well-draining soil. A cactus mix with added perlite or pumice works well. Sterilize the soil to avoid mold or fungus.
3. Sowing the Seeds
Moisten the soil lightly.
Sprinkle the seeds on the surface without covering them.
Cover the container with a transparent lid or plastic wrap to create a humid environment.
4. Light and Temperature
Keep your Peyote seeds warm (around 75–85°F or 24–29°C) and provide indirect sunlight. Germination usually occurs within 2–4 weeks.
5. Patience and Care
Peyote is a slow grower, taking several years to reach maturity. Water sparingly, only when the soil is dry. Overwatering is the most common cause of failure.
