Thanks for the good advice, Ipuma.
-I tried the 30g cactus powder a couple of weeks ago. Basically i reheated the powder in some mineral water with the juice of 3 lemons. I then stored it untill i was gonna use it a few days later, warmed it up with a little more lemon juice, and chugged it home, without filtering anything. There was no nausea at all.
-It kicked in about 2.5 hours later. I felt quite restless when it did, also disorientated and dizzy. This eventually settled down . I got out and went for a walk, but still wasn't comfortable at all with a dizzy, almost "fever like" headfeel. There was no way that i was gonna be drinking that HBWR infusion that i made, feeling like this.
-Back indoors there were some mild psychadelic effects of mild patternings in the carpet, and wall patterns amplified. Colours were a LOT brighter, especially the blues on my laptop that were glowing!!
-The real treat however was when i went to bed and "tried" to sleep (don't laugh!!). I saw some amazing visuals just like mushrooms that i tried in LAOS a few years back whilst travelling.Except these were fast moving, much more colourful, and there were some silver 3d like ones, that reminded me of Colombian artefacts i saw on my travels. Now i know what inspired them to make these objects!! Lot's of funny ren and stimpy, and spongebob cartoon characters too !!
-My mind simply was far too stimulated to sleep, yet i was tired and was "forced" to experience these cool visuals. I was also given a stern reminder of some missed opportunities with beautiful women, that i had long forgotten about. Very true reminders of just how important it is to "go for it", or lose out to others,etc...The mescalito was like a stern grandmother telling me that i had it all going for me in this world, but that like everyone else, i still had to do my bit. This went on and on, and on, YES, i got the message!!:lol:
- So i didn't sleep, and felt awful the next day!!
> HOWEVER, the visuals did seem to persist the next few evenings when trying to sleep, and i did get some wierd psychadelic dreams too. I believe that the cactus is a powerful teacher whose strength is in his ability to teach a lesson, that isn't quickly forgotten. The effects certainly persist for a few days after...
>>> Now that i've sampled the spirit of "mescalito" i feel that next time i can go a lot higher. i believe that 70-80 grammes of dried San Pedro -100g is more like the correct dose. 30G was just a tester. However mine is mixed with P.Torch, so i'll just be using the last 45 grammes left before the "next time"- if there is one!!
>>> I also believe that once one starts cactus, that one should " ride the cactus experience" fully for as long as one can to properly get into it's groove. The odd cactus trip here and there not really enough IMO.
- tHE HBWR is still there, waiting to be drunk. I suppose it's weak as hell now!!
