Decent Re-x

[smri]

Here is a decent re-x I have to share since this is the exact place that helped show me. Thank you to all Nexians. Much love.
N-heptane was put into hot water(brought to boil then turn stove off, then put container of solvent in). Used approximately 1g of yellower (dmt oxide?) spirits in a martini glass, hot heptane, mix until disolved, a touch more heptane to slow evaporation, then wait. This was done in 24 hours more or less. I hear if the evaporation and cooling is slower you get fatter xtals. That particular snowflake was (yes w/o bag) .5g.

That's some kind of deep yellow. What was the extraction tek you used in the first place?

It is definitely a Spice crystal, i am just curious when you re-xed did you separate your solvent from any yellow goo? you could definitely re-x that and get it clearer, i only mention this because it looks like you may still have lots of impurities, unless that is all oxidation but idk maybe from a more experienced member he or she could help out.

to me all it looks like is it has to be cleaned up, nothing to hard, good luck and please share with updated photos if you can

I would guess it was STB tek?

That kind of yellow I can't even achieve with q21q21's A/B tek, and especially after re-x.

Isn't the point with re-x to get pure white spice? Usually spice looks that yellow only before re-x.

I figured this crystal would bring some. Well, first things first; it was an STB; Noman's.

What inspired this originally was the re-x that was posted over a year ago, on little metal plates and the poster commented on how he 'won the nationals'. I noticed heptane was used as was open evaporation. His were quite orange and amber and also brought a lot of comments which led me to some different kind of research.
Yes, a pure clear/white xtal of the same size would be quite the sh!t...but I kinda like the color. I still wanna figure out how to get a red looking xtal someday.
From my understanding, it is 'impure' but from other alkaloids not lye. Although not as pure as straight n-dmt, it has a different quality I feel isn't necessarily 'dirty'.
Also, I didn't pull the yellow goo from the heptane since I felt what was being used was good and clean (even if oxidized) to begin with and was more interested in size than just being white.
Do you think if I pulled all the solids from the hot heptane in martini glass that would yield larger results?

 

[DoctorMantus]

Idk if pulling the solids will yield you larger results but will definitely clean your spice up.

but also remember when you separate the clean solvent from the oils keep the yellow oils there still may be some spice, all you gotta do is throw it in some warm solvent and do repeat the separation.

I'll take those deep yellow rocks any day over any other! The taste wonderful!

Interesting could you elaborate^ i am not a large fan of the taste is there that much of a taste difference between the two?

i obtained orange crystals like that from Q21s ab tek. What i did was a re-x with naptha that had been re-used multiple times and didnt seperate the goo. I also warmed my bark up a little too hot i believe which caused my solvent to pick up more unwanteds than usual.

I am wondering if anyone else has seen the bright yellow crystals that erowid has had up for quite some time as their picture for the DMT entry. These crystals somewhat remind me of that. I still wish to find out for myself how to obtain a bright yellow crystal like those on erowid.
