Revelation 22:13-17 "I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end, the first & the last. 14 Blessed are they that do his commandements, that they may haue right to the tree of life, and may enter in thorow the gates into the citie. 15 For without are dogs, and sorcerers, and whoremongers, and murderers, and idolaters, and whosoeuer loueth and maketh a lie. 16 I Iesus haue sent mine Angel, to testifie vnto you these things in the Churches. I am the roote and the offspring of Dauid, and the bright and morning starre. 17 And the Spirit and the Bride say, Come. And let him that heareth, say, Come. And let him that is a thirst, come. And whosoeuer will, let him take the water of life freely."

Sleepy Grass ( Stipa robusta )
This is not a shop.
Stipa robusta is a perennial grass that is often infected with the Acremonium endophyte fungus(ergot). I do believe it was one of many things that got Bouncing Bear Botanicals in trouble back in the early 2010's.If you're going to talk freely about this stuff, then don't sell it. When infected, it is known for causing drowsiness and stupor in grazing horses. It's of the same interest to researchers who have studied Hawaiian Baby Woodrose Seeds , Morning Glory Seeds , and Rivea corymbosa seeds, or Ololiuqui, as they call it. These are all "enemy of the state" type plants. They're not really illegal, but the plant material or the seeds can get you in trouble if you sell it or the seeds, AND state too many facts. A shop called Bouncing Bear Botanicals put these facts on the map, and on the radar in the early 2010's. These facts are important, and information is powerful. The science indicates intelligent design, and the desire to quiet indicates fowl play and a power grab at work.
It's a very stable crop, and grows like a weed. If you're looking to give back to the biosphere, this stuff is a great way to contribute. By planting Sleepygrass, you are essentially helping to convert excess co2 into fresh air, right? It's a great way to give back to the biosphere. This plant makes plenty of seeds and comes back every single year. It's rather difficult to find the seeds or dried material for sale now a days. This is likely because selling it makes you a target, as with other stuff like Ma Huang(Ephedra sinica). I can see a pattern of ethnobotanicals which are dangerous, having no authority pay them any attention, while the non-toxic beneficial botanicals get attacked like flies on poo by those same authorities. I call malicious far right intent.
Back in the day Sleepy Grass ( Stipa robusta ) was sold by Bouncing Bear Botanicals before they were illegally raided by the DEA in cooperation with local authorities. I see both sides, but still ( legal means legal ).I do see where they were coming from on how he marketed things, lacking in warning and apathetic for concern, which is not cool. While this stuff is not in itself illegal, attempting to extract any of the psychoactive constituents within it is, and so is using it in an entheogenic fashion. Because of this, the owners lawyers advised him to stop selling it all together. If he hadn't marketed it the way he did they may have never came after him. It was also kinda dumb to have a forum where people were talking about it.Bottom line, all drugs originate from nature, including the ones distributed by serpent medical. I for one believe in discernment (1 Corinthians 12), and plants being blessings and curses depending on what they are and how they're viewed and utilized.
It's quite a fascinating but sad story what happened with the bbb. This page serves as a history time stamp of that time. Not long after I first started putting this website together, they dropped a lot of products for legal reasons like the New Mexico Feather Grass ( Stipa robusta ), Ayahuasca related items, and other extreme grey area's like Hawaiian Baby Woodrose. You can still find most of these for legal purposes, but the people who sell them are a lot smarter than they used to be about marketing them. Anyway, that store shut down in 2019. It is sad and bizarre how little people know about the nature of these substances and their origins. For God is the ultimate chemist, and the original creator of all drugs, medicines, and even poisons. The approach in which society has taken to "control" these, is not about the betterment of society, but the privatization of industry, which boils down to the control and ripping off, of the masses. We're being ripped off, and sold generic man made knock-off's.
