The purpose of this paper is to give a brief history of Ayahuasca and P. viridis Ruiz et Pavon, present the currently known production methods, and provide insight into the future of P. viridis production. Since P. viridis has not been heavily researched, this may serve as an
overview of future production. I hope this may be a helpful learning tool for anyone intrigued by the great mystery of Ayahuasca and anyone interested in legally producing Psychotria viridis in the future.
