I harvested some leaves today, and I think they’re among the largest, greenest, and velvety-est salvia leaves I’ve ever seen. Beautiful…

Those are definitely the biggest, greenest S. divinorum leaves I've ever seen!

Nice work Gilbran!

Makes me miss way back when...when I had my own S. divinorum plants growing in my yard...

I have to get some more starts somehow...

Thanks for the inspiration Gilbran!:d

Divine material you have there.. any ideas as to why they grew so large and wide? Thank you for sharing.

Normally a cutting will yield 2, 4, or 6 branches, corresponding to 1, 2, or 3 nodes.
This cutting only yielded a single branch, so the plant was able to put all of its energy into fewer leaves.

Fantastic! You really have a green thumb gibran2! Just out of curiosity: what's your process for drying the leaves?

I spread them out on a cookie sheet in a single layer and let them dry naturally and in darkness. Takes about a week for them to dry.

Exactly one year ago I started this thread, and purely by coincidence I just harvested a plant with what I think is my biggest Salvia leaf yet: 17” long and 6” wide, 9g fresh weight.

Cinco de Mayo is a good day for Salvia!

I always pictured you with long brown hair. Goes to show you don't know what you don't know.
