Hey jdubs! I just experienced my first brew last weekend. I did everything myself. I tried to do everything official and right... and it turned out crap

I ate light the day before... had a protein shake for breakfast... fasted all day... took 12 hours making Aya with 50 G caapi and 50 G viridis... added lime & ascorbic acid... 3 boils of 2 hours each with dH2O... You name it, I followed it.
I have a beautiful Queenslander House in Queensland... So I just sat on the veranda couch with touches lit everywhere and incense. I drank a considerable amount of the caapi first and then sipped a mix of the caapi/viridis within 30 minutes. In the end I just got sick after almost 2 hours. I felt a little trip and it would only happen if I sat completely still and closed my eyes. If I got up, moved, came into conscious thinking... it went away. I found it such a waste of time and energy. I started the drink at 7pm (after sunset) and by 11pm still nothing... I even ate fatty foods at the 2 hour mark to help get any extra DMT out of the liver!
I have read on many sites (plus my supplier hinted to me) that caapi can sometimes be a hit and miss thing. I honestly think that I just did not have enough caapi (MAOI). This is why...
A few days later after this experience I decided to do an extraction on the viridis leaves that I used. Just a test... as I knew I would get very little if any out since I already used them for Aya. Anyways, using the Q21Q21 tek 2 I ened up collecting nearly 100mg of crystal! Whether is was all DMT or not... who knows... but this is what I did with it.
I ground up 4 grams of Syrian Rue Seeds at around 7pm, dumped it in about 200 mL of Orange juice, and drank! After about 30 minutes I could feel the effects of the Rue coming on I dumped about 30 mL of OJ into the shotglass that I condenced the crystals into and dranks. I then immediately went to bed. Closed eye visuals started after about 30 minutes (8pm) and that was about it... but then after nearly 3 hours (~11pm)... BAM!!! it hit me! I was tripping until 3am. It was not over the edge... but still much better than the Aya! At one point I had to pee so bad and my "trip" to the bathroom I swear I could have been diagnoised with parkinsons!!! Lol... Definite visuals! I can't really describe. I actually got motion sickness from walking? But... I never threw up with this mix!
So my advice... add 2-3 grams of Syrian Rue just prior to taking the Aya. I think if I had done this my first time... the experience would have been unforgettable! Good luch and happy seeking!
