Does this look right?

So I dehydrated my tea down yesterday and this is what I got. It was a little sticky/wet still, so I am dehydrating it more right now.

Yes, looks spot on. Keep it going until it becomes gummy. Then scrape and roll into balls. If you let it evaporate too long it will just be very hard and brittle and you won't be able to roll it. However, if this does happen just add a little hot water bit by bit and it will dissolve very easily.
 
or; if it gets hard and brittle, scrape it up with a razor, put it in between layers of wax paper under some heavy books. After it has compressed, change the orientation of the resin block and compress it again until you have a brick. This can be cut with a razor into morsels and rolled in flour.

behindthelight - you may find the process more rewarding if you try following through and using your own judgement more instead of checking in at the nexus every single step of the way. You might even discover a new technique using your own creativity and ingenuity instead of recycling other peoples ideas.

This was the result of 2 foot long cuttings, I was planning on doing all of it at once. Based on my research, that is a normal dose right?

Thanks man.

Thanks for the tips.

Yeah man, I was just worried about messing up and ruining the cactus and the resulting goodies.
This is the first time I have ever done this, so I just wanted to get one under my belt and I felt like the best idea was to consult you guys. But for future attempts, I see your point, I could/can definitely try my own methods.
 
I've never used cuttings, but as far as I'm aware one foot seems to be a good starting point to get the feel. There was an experience report put up recently in the cactus section where the guy took 3 foot. It depends too on the thickness of the cuttings obviously, and the potency. Everyone says cactus is very forgiving however! Is it a first time?

Yeah man, this is my first time, that is why I was trying to get help on some of the steps. Plus, I didn't want to take to much, but I think I should be ok taking 2 foot long cuttings.
 
alright I'm kinda a noob with things involving cacti so is the point here to dehydrate the cactus brew down into smaller quantities as to not have to drink the vile stuff? I tried making brew once and I was puking like the little girl in the exorcist before I could even finish my portion so i didn't trip very hard at all, adding some mushies to the mix made it kinda interesting but I didn't really get a full mescaline experience. Is dehydrating the way to go if you don't wanna do a mescaline extraction?
 
oh yeah its god awful. to me it tastes like if you had eaten nothing but broccoli for a week and then puked it up and drank it. bleh. anyway I hope that method works well. let me know how the trip goes since you just ate it:). I may have to give the old brew a shot again with that method somewhere down the line if it works well. Happy Tripping
 
I actually didn't weigh it....I thought about that afterwards........not sure why I didn't.

Well, it's been about 2 hours now and I don't feel anything...........maybe it takes your body a long time to break that resin down or something....?

Please, please, please work.......gonna suck if nothing happens.

Thinking back on it, I picked up the entire amount and I would guess it was at least 6-8 grams. I am pretty familiar with what 3 grams feels like and this was a lot more.
