Eager me

[QuinnEHG]

Hey guys, First post since my introduction essay where I stated that I was yet to try spice.
That has since changed

I am eager to run a small extraction this weekend and had a question Regarding A. Decurrens. I was snooping around various forums the other day and found a handful of references to this species, some in regards to it being an ingredient in a changa mix, and one person claimed to have managed to get quite a decent yield from one but that the quantities of tryptamine where incredibly variable.

Does anybody out there have any information on this species?
Is it worth doing a test extraction?

I'm not an expert on this species, but judging by how I use phalaris grasses for my extractions and not many people recommend that I would say go for it and post your results, maybe your leap into the unknown will help with other people's attempts with this plant. Hope to hear your results!

i'm planning a major phalaris extraction (it grows wild here) and it is fairly unwise to go ahead with an extraction of a plant unless you can do a TLC or something to be sure of its alkaloid profile. with phalaris because it can have gramine and hordenine, which are worth taking the extra time and knowledge to avoid.
as for acacia, i believe you really only have to worry about NMT contam (which isn't that bad since NMT is for the most part harmless and also psychoactive - just dilutes the activity of dmt) but i can't be sure as i can't seem to find any solid documentation on it (nen mentions a few times in passing in his acacia info thread.

a test extraction couldn't hurt.
but its nice to know what you have before you try and smoke it

In the spirit of adventure I will start tomorrow!
I have experience with photography so I will get some snaps of the process

Mate, Its VERY worth while doing a test extraction.... Many of the Acacia species have DMT (and a host of other psychotropic alkaloids).
Its what this site is all about... Research ! Get your Tek right with practice and you may be very suprised at your results.

There are some extremely good Acacia threads here so read them....

In Australia, DMT is right under your nose :thumb_up: Look on the high shelf in Bunnings for 98% caustic soda.... (Diggers) and Shellite.
Pay by cash.

Take some photos, (you have experience with photography !)
Which state are you in ? You will get there my friend.
Love and Peas Gowpen

Thanks heaps for the feedback!
I'm in northeast Victoria
I ended up having a last minute change of heart and decided to try A. Implexa as there seems to be no info on possible alkaloid content anywhere.

I will upload some photos of the process tomorrow
