Hello everyone,

I'm an experienced psychedelic user with years of work using ayahuasca and high-dose mushrooms (up to 4g natalensis and 12g cubensis). My first ayahuasca experience in Brazil involved a huge glassful and a total ego death—I genuinely thought I was either dead or headed for a mental institution.

About six years ago, I tried to vaporize 5-MeO-DMT for the first time using a crack pipe. I must have burned it, because I damaged my lungs and vocal cords. It took years to heal, and even now I can't sing like I used to. At the time, I also had N,N-DMT (jungle spice, not pure white) in my possession, but I put everything on hold due to fear of more self-harm. I had both samples tested at a professional lab in Vancouver, which confirmed they were the correct substances—my technique was likely the issue. I stored both molecules with desiccant and oxygen absorber packs in an airtight container in the freezer, and forgot about the whole project for six years.

A few months ago, after much research into what went wrong, I decided to try again. I'd seen a post claiming that vaporizing N,N-DMT with a Yocan Orbit was foolproof. Unfortunately, I burned the substance again and injured myself once more, taking nearly two months to recover. I should mention I have asthma and an autoimmune condition, so my body overreacts with inflammation. I later learned that the Yocan Orbit's battery, even at its lowest setting, delivers 3.4V—far too high for DMT.

Then I found a post suggesting using the Yocan Orbit atomizer on a mod box. So I got a GeekVape Aegis Mini, set it to 10W, and as a precaution (to avoid further injury) added a Hubble bubbler with water to cool the vapor. I knew this could condense the DMT and cause some loss, but I preferred safety and figured I could up the dose if needed. I had three experiences: 10mg, 18mg, and 25mg. All were pleasant and safe—no injuries. I realized temperature control is critical, but still suspected I was losing potency, since 25mg felt weak.

Finally, I took the plunge and built an eMesh setup following MintyLove's YouTube videos and website: GeekVape Aegis Mini at 17W, a Mesh Pro RDA with eMesh and a drip tip. Everything went smoothly. I had two experiences on the same day: 10mg, then 15mg. The 15mg was interesting—I felt a vibration pulsing through my energy centers (chakras), rising upward. The experience was unmistakably psychedelic, though only mild open-eye distortions (a bit like mushrooms) and no closed-eye visuals.

Yesterday, my wife agreed to tripsit, so I decided to go for 20mg. I was scared. I set the mod to 19W and inhaled for about 9 seconds, then held the vapor for roughly 10–15 seconds. Then the thought came: *No, no, no, no, no… I don't want to go. I don't want this. I want to reverse course. I never want to do this again.* I exhaled because I felt that holding it longer was intensifying the effects. I think my optic nerve feedback cut out for a split second and returned.

I wanted to interact with my wife but couldn't. I was half-gone, my body limp. But there was no rocket/geforce sensation, no waiting room, no breakthrough—I was still very much present. This was definitely my strongest experience so far. Afterwards, I felt extremely relaxed, all my muscles loosened, and I slept like a baby. Best of all, I checked the mesh and was pleasantly surprised: almost the entire dose was vaporized in one go. No throat, vocal cord, or lung injury—just slight irritation. I drank mullein tea, had a eucalyptus cough drop, and used a Mabis steam inhaler as a preventative measure. Today I feel great. No side effects.

**My main questions:**

1. **Breakthrough dosage on eMesh** – MintyLove suggests ~20mg is a breakthrough dose with pure white crystals, but elsewhere on YouTube and Nexus I see 30–35mg cited for eMesh. Which is accurate? Erowid lists 10–20mg as a light dose (non-breakthrough), though I'm unsure if that's based on eMesh efficiency or other methods like GVG. My 20mg was definitely not a breakthrough, though it was very powerful and ego-challenging. Could my DMT have degraded over six years in the freezer? Or is breakthrough truly in the 30–35mg range?

2. **How long to hold the vapor in your lungs?** AI sources say that within 5–10 seconds, your body absorbs almost all of it, and holding longer just irritates the airways. Others say hold up to 30 seconds. I felt that longer holding did increase intensity—I exhaled early because I got scared. What's the consensus?

3. **Does jungle spice significantly affect dosage?** For example, would 20mg of pure white crystals be roughly equivalent to 25–30mg of jungle spice?

4. I heard that higher dose than 20mg gets less scary because ego is completely dissolved and doesn't fight back. Is that true? So say 30mg less scary than sub-breakthrough What can I expect at 25mg, 30mg, 35mg compared to 20mg?

5. I noticed that some dmt was stuck to the inside of the mesh pro rda cap on top of where the emesh is on the inside. It was yellow and a bit hardened. Is this normal? Maybe I lost some this way? How did it jump up like that if I pulsed it before inhalation to liquify it? Maybe I waited too long between the liquid state and the actual inhalation (10 minutes or so)?

Thanks in advance for your insights and shared experiences.

My guy just pull until you have about 10% left in your lungs, put the device down and finish the hit with clean air forcing the vape in your lungs. that should fix your issues.Good luck and safe travels
 
Hi
1: 35mg at least. I do 40-60. For me any lower doesn't do it .

2: hold for 10 seconds first and second pull , and third pull hold as long as you can .
The swifter you get to the third pull the better , less spice loss between pulls!

3 : yellow or white doesn't really matter,

4: yes and no ! 35 is still low , over 50 can be extremely frightening, but also the most Incredible! ,
One needs to learn to take the rough with the smooth . There is no one leg in and one out with Dmt.
(That's just In my experience)

5: I always burn off residue before use , clean vape is good . Yes don't wait too long when spice is turning to vapour or your loose it . Move through the pulls , 5-8 seconds pulls hold for 8-10 sec , longer on last pull !!! .

And my smoothest vape is the volcano hybrid. Goes very low temp and extremely smooth , but expensive!

All the best

I don't quite get it. How to take more than 1 pull with emesh? You can't reload after inhaling say 20-25mg the effects are already quite strong. And isn't the whole point of emesh to get breakthrough in 1 pull?

Also, my question was how many seconds to hold in the lungs not how many seconds to pull. So even if I leave 10% lung space and then inhale fresh air to max capacity, how long to hold after that?

Thanks again.

Hi , sorry I can't advise on the emash , but I know the mesh heats instantly when the button is pressed ,
and cools when button released.
Many pen vapes are like this , I have a Dr dabber that is like that .
To give me more pulls I make sure I put enough in 50 +mg , So there is enough to go again and not
vaporized in one go .

But that's me I'm not advising you to go higher dose , only you can decide that !! I'm just saying what I do .

I found trying to blast in in one go can be chaotic, and not advised
that's why I prefer a vape that vaporizes it Gently at low temperature and stays on , giving me time to ease in
More calmly.

Like I said I hold the 1st and second pulls for 10 seconds and the third for as long as I can .
But if your trying to do it at 35mg in one big blastoff pull , I suggest holding it in for as long as you can .

Cant you throttle the trigger, like one second on one second off to keep the vapor cool and the hit tolerable. I personally hold it as long as I can within reason.
Safe travels
 
Usually though for mesh from what I read no need to throttle as the entire dose is vaporized in one go. So I guess the people commenting are not using emesh and referring to other devices that can reload easily or are not as efficient as vaporizing in one go?

Also still puzzled about dosages. Isn't emesh like double the efficiency so you need a lot less to breakthrough? From what I read 50mg for example would be unheard of for mesh as it's so efficient the whole dose can be vaporized in one go achieving rapid breakthrough.

Any clarification would be helpful. Thank you all.
