Last time I used this method to convert mescaline HCL at a fairly high concentration in solution and got goo. This time I used the cactus it was created from as per the usual tek.  I it also created goo. When I checked the PH after adding the recommended amount of citric I noticed it was actually close to neutral. This is an important factor. I have added enough citric acid to get the PH up (confirmed with a PH paper) to see if it can crystalize the goo over time.

The cactus is a Bridgesii, some think it may be a lumberjack and it has always had quite high yields.

I think what might be happening for some people with high yielding cactus is that there is so much mescaline and the solution actually more alkaline than you think. Then when you add the citric acid you are crystalizing at too high of a PH and creating trimescalne citrate instead of monomescaline citrate. This is why PH testing is important.

I wonder if both trimescaline citrate and monomescaline citrate can be crystalized by an IPA re-x as some people have recently shown ? I feel like it's quite important to know as it affects dosages.
