Growing Leonotis Leonorus
July 11, 20101 Comment
Leonotis Leonorus, also known as Wild Dagga or Lion’s Tail, is a perennial shrub native to Southern Africa. The plant has a history as a medicinal plant used for headache, cough, fever and many other treatments. It is best known for it’s use as a substitute for Cannabis, hence the name, Wild Dagga – Wild Cannabis.
The plant can get a size of (in ideal conditions) 2 to 5 meters tall. Since it’s native to South Africa it’s important to place the plant in full sun for optimal growth, and if you expect flowers it’s essential. Both the leaves and flowers can be used to smoke or to make tea out of it. Leonurine, one of the psychoactive alkaloids in Leonotis Leonorus, is easily extracted through a water infusion. Personally I do not have any experience with the use of this plant so far, but when I have it will be shared.

Today I sowed the latest batch of peyote seeds I got. Though it is a bit late in the season I wanted to try a new method anyway, and could not wait until March.
In this article I will describe the method I used to prepare the containers; the soil mix I used and everything else that is important when sowing your seeds.
Expand your mind, be self-sufficient, grow your own. Share your seeds
