Lophophora genus page

[cedillamuerta]

I've been reading through each genus page on the guide to absorb as much as I can (I'm very nerdy) and I noticed that, at least as far as I've gotten, Lophophora is the only genus page with no general notes box. I'd think that with a genus as widely cultivated and discussed as Lophs, there'd be a paragraph in there too. Forgive me if I'm being nitpicky, but I love the format we have for each genus page. Thanks.

Hi, good observation. Did you notice the part that said:

Additional notes are available for this genus:

If you click that you'll see all of Kyle's notes on the subject. With that, Lophophora is one of the more comprehensively documented genera on the site. I should include an overview of the genus to go with it, however.

Yes, I did. I read through Kyle's contributions. I was just surprised that there weren't any generic notes and thought maybe it was because of their legal status. Then I thought "no" because only L. williamsi really contains much mescaline.

No the "real" reason behind it is that I skipped over the genus as I alphabetically went down the list because it already had info and many had nothing. Then I forgot to get back to it. Not a very sophisticated reason I admit.

Just an FYI, if you are interested in reading more about Lophophora you should read Anderson's book on Peyote, I have read parts of it, and it's interesting.
