..in the 90s when the DMT extraction world was a little fresher, and more guided by experienced chemists, there was no obsession with the end-product being crystals..

in the ordinary world of phytochemical extraction, a simple A/B or STB as done by most nexians, would be said to result in the CRUDE ALKALOIDS..
crystalization requires either re-crystalization (up to several times) and/or separation of compounds in some cases..

BUT, the crude alkaloid is perfectly OK (if were talking mainly tryptamines/betacarbolines) and FINE..perhaps less convenient to handle, but most goo is mostly DMT..

the very first set of instructions i ever read for extracting DMT from plants (in Psychedelic Illuminations magazine) in 1991 said that, after evaporating the non-polar solvent, the resulting SOLID OR OIL is the DMT..

people need to get this imbedded in the psyche and save themselves a lot of un-needed worry, or worse still waste of perfectly good plant alkaloids..

in the Acacia Analysis Thread you will see an example of how a goo/paste is actually over 92% DMT..
[see image attached below]

remaining an oil form is due to either small amounts of beta-carbolines and/or NMT..
often such 'oils' will soldify eventually after a couple of weeks..

so, unless you like meticulous, fiddly lab techniques, just enjoy what the plants give you..sometimes you get crystals..
just be sure it's a species known to have had DMT demonstrated in it..
.

below 92%+ DMT with small amount NMT, betacarbolines and traces..

I have the same thing and a hash skillet I assume it would work beautifully for goo and crystals, I haven't tried yet tho has anyone on here? The only problem would possibly be getting it too hot

yea, generally conduction vaporizers are regarded as inferior for such low-vaping temps as DMT.

i even have issues using those skillets for really pure hash oils (the taste really comes out better when you use convection).

I understand the obsession with wanting nice pretty crystals. They seem like they're a cleaner, purer form of DMT. That doesn't always mean it's "better", however.

From what I read, I was expecting goo from my first acacia extraction. I ended up with some nice crystals as well, but I wasn't put off by the goo. It smells very strongly of DMT and is fine if you're making changa. I am actually beginning to enjoy it more than the nice white crystals I got from my previous mimosa extractions.

Mimosa always gave me fluffy whites, so I can see why people are upset with the goo. They want those lovely pr0n shots of huge crystals. It's just not necessary. The goo is just as good, even better.

I say we start a goo movement. Post pictures of your goo! :) It's amazing stuff. Crystals might look nicer, but the goo delivers as good or better.

Crystals = airbrushed supermodel in a bikini
Goo = girl next door who'll rock your world

an accidental crystal that grew in xylene (about 80ml)... never had this happen before. was extracted from acacia floribunda. I wasn't aware actual crystals could be produced from xylene let alone growing while still in the solution. I poured the xylene off to preserve the little fella and the rest is evapping still. oh... and a bit of goo to stay on topic. dmt definitely the main alkaloid.. bioassayed a small amount via vaping off a spoon (in the middle of moving house so I had to make do with the kitchen appliances)

hmm i disagree. I think most people just want crystals as a bit of an ornament of their hard work... dmt is a very powerful substance that changes lives and i think people like being able to marvel over some beautiful little crystals with the knowledge that they can provide such an experience..

having said that.. being propelled into hyperspace by some insignificant looking goo... now thats even cooler

Yeah, I also disagree with the assertion that most people want crystals because they're easier to sell. I was hoping for crystals because they're much easier to handle than goo.

I just ended up infusing my goo in mullein, so I'm happy :lol:

yep. no basal gland to be found. soft papery phyllodes with small hairs.. i thought it may be mucronata because the phyllodes grew quite close together and it was close by to some mucronata..but it seems unlikely due to the other attributes. it was quite a tall tree too. will test the mucronata again very soon when i get a chance to go out bush. Hope to collect seed from it sometime
