Coca is almost impossible to grow outside of the Andes region apparently, but good luck to you!
Personally, I want coca leaves/tea bags if anybody has them??

That isn't the case. It can be grown anywhere in the right conditions, though the seeds don't remain viable for very long.
Like you though I'd be interested in coca leaves
-
Oh yeah for some reason I didn't consider indoor grows, that, shouldn't be a problem.
I would be very keen to get my hands on some leaves though, if anybody can help?
-
this would be really, really cool. I would be down to purchase either
-
I have a handful of coca plants myself.
They are not that easy to grow and maintain, and 300g of fresh leaves will most certainly NOT give you 1g of fishscale cocaine, not even close.
Unless you really know what you're doing you should start out growing easier plants and work your way up to coca... Try growing something like catuba or a zebra plant or even African violets, learn your lessons on them before you spend money on a coca plant.
and don't try to order seeds in the wintertime, they get to cold along the way or sitting in your mailbox and they'll never sprout.

I think what is needed here is what happened to the cannabis seed market, some serious genetic selection
select coca seeds for :
cold resistance
higher alkaloid output
less light tolerance
etc
a few ( hundred ) generations and boom you got a globally distributable growable coca plant for the indoor/outdoor grower
hmm speaking of, I never looked but does SR not have a thriving cannabis seed exchange ?

Even with the perfect strain the yields just don't make it practical, weed is a lot less involved and profitable. Maybe by 30 times or so?

That is the point of the selection is to get a super high yeilding strain... cannabis used to be like 5% THC, now it's like 25%, and btw I agree ;), today weed = $ , but for tomorrows generations ?
poppy plants are another example of selective breeding, potency has increased steadily over the last few decades... coca is the only one left, with its weak mother nature version :(
if the coca seeds produce plants that go from 0.50% to 10%, over 100 generations ( would take years ), then extracting a dozen or so plants would make it worthwhile

listen to catfishinmysocks, you will never make money on coca growing indoors.
Selective breeding won't move the dial much on alkaloid content or hardiness, that's been going on since the 1940's (maybe earlier) and the end result is what is sitting in my grow room.... not terribly impressive.

You can't breed all you want and a date palm isn't going to survive in Toronto. And coca isn't going to make it in new york. The only way to deal with that is full-on genetic engineering. (someday you'll be able to pick steaks off your veal tree and when you peel the bark back it'll bleed A-1 sauce)
if you live in hawaii, puerto rico, florida keys, or the warmest areas of texas and have access to cheap labor (or a lot of free time) you could probably plant / grow / harvest a few acres of coca and make a kilo a year. In Hawaii these would likely grow like weeds.
If you're somewhere colder: just give up, grow weed, sell said weed.
Good Luck

You just need to sequence the genes that control alkaloid content and kick them into high gear, develope a plant-based retrovirus that will infect the seeds, then grow the new crop of super-producing plants.
So... anyone here in MIT, by any chance?

In your thread you wrote: "It would actually take 250kg of dried leaf to make 1kilo of pure cocaine...". Well, this is like I said: 300g fresh leaves for 1g of Coca. Your statement is: 250g dried leaf for 1g coca. I know that 300g fresh leaves are not 250g of dried leaves... maybe you'll need 500g fresh leaves to get 250g dried one... Or not?
I know weed loses about 70% of the fresh weight when dried, I reckon this isn't much different with coca leaves..
So 250gram dried leaves will be about 800gram fresh weight. :)

Coca Tea Leaves - 1 Gram - For Tea or Chewing
Whole Leaf Coca Leaves
Premium Organic,
Peruvian Product
Cool Shade Dried
Highly Nutritious! Rich in essential minerals (calcium, potassium, phosphorus), vitamins (B1, B2, C, and E) Protein, Fiber and Pytonutrients), strong raw alkaloid content retained throught proper harvesting and slow shade drying. Great for tea or chewing.
The coca leaf has been chewed and brewed for tea traditionally for centuries among its indigenous peoples in the Andean region – and does not cause any harm and is beneficial to human health.
The traditional method of chewing coca leaf, called acullico, consists of keeping a saliva-soaked ball of coca leaves in the mouth together with an alkaline substance that assists in extracting cocaine from the leaves.
When chewed, coca acts as a mild stimulant and suppresses hunger, thirst, pain, and fatigue. It helps overcome altitude sickness. Coca chewing and drinking of coca tea is carried out daily by millions of people in the Andes without problems, and is considered sacred within indigenous cultures. Coca tea is widely used, even outside the Andean Amazon region. Coca has an established use spread among all social classes, in two Northern provinces of Argentina.

I really want to try the fresh coca leafs :) never try it even when I've travel to Peru 3 times
and growing coca in-out doors to extract cocaine is a bad idea. If it works MANY other countries would producing it lol
