Hi all,

I've been studying recently and learned about Claviceps Paspali, a Claviceps strain that produces relatively high yields of ergotamine.
Now i am dreaming about the possibility to find such a strain in the wild, and would like to know your opinions on how viable it would be to raise such a strain in my humble biolab.
There is some information about claviceps cultivation on erowid, and it seems pretty complete. The web however leaves me pretty dark about experiences other fellow dreamers may have had.
I do often find the (Stevens and Hall) Paspali mentioned, is this a specific grown or cultivated high ergotamine producing substrain?

In my dream i would go out find some samples in the field, transfer these under sterile conditions onto agar plates and depending on how these evolve later in some wide mouth jars or eventually
a makeshift bioreactor for liquid culture propagation.

Anyone willing to share some information or thoughts?

Thanks! :)

C. purpurea can be bought on etsy for a decent price but only a small number of infected seeds, nonetheless sufficient for starting several cultures.
