Thanks for "bumping " . great info

Thank you for bumping. It is great info. It inspired me to write down the heritage of plants, that I cross. It is much fun to look at later on. Here is an example. The heritage of 'Nina'

To better analyse, how the plants of a cross influence on each other it also amuses me to make visual plates of the plants. Here is 'Nina' as an example again :)

Kyle...Sue...and all...
schultes was an amazing explorer... Davis who wrote the book about him and his work... narated this movie about it.. it's maybe an hour long... and deals mostly with the research they were doing.. nailing down information on the reported native use of many of the psychoactive plants ... the movie traces Schultes travels.. and is filmed showing him at work from the 20's- the 50's
although brugs aren't mentioned one is seen being inspected at the end of the show...I just odered three of Davis's books... I'd read a few of Schultes over the years...
warning this movie centers it's self on the development of different psychoactive researches.. and only just shows inspection of the brug ...withot mentioning it or anything abut it
an hour long interesting account of the plant discoveries by shulties.. shot by this guy Davis.. with a slew of books out about this and other discoveries

Documentary about Schultes and psychedelics narrated by Wade Davis.
Shows a brug toward the end.

This is good info, I am very much into the old cultivars and I currently have been replacing the ones I lost. I have all of the varieties that Kyle mentioned in the first post. So reading this is exciting for me.
Thanks for bumping it up.
