pooh,
dont really know where to start. Well, maybe by mentioning that it wasted about 1g of dmt fumarate and just threw away the stuff that came out of conversion... it wouldn't call it freebase, its lungs are actually burning a bit as it writes.
It guesses some things must have gone wrong, maybe some being can help identify what.
First of all its limo is yellow, it's probably more than 90% d-Limonene but technically its called orange-terpene. it is not really sure if that matters, but it called the guy from ebay today asking if it were possible to exchange it to some clear limo, which ebay also has. Should it ?
Well, it did the Q21Q21's Vinegar/Lime A/B until it pulled all the limo of the dry goo and then proceeded with step 4a of BLAB, using FASI 5ml every 5 minutes and precipitated about 4g of dmt fumarate, which was brownish powdery but a little bit granular and smelled of oranges nearly as much as limo. All looked good. It then washed the dried fumarate with ice cold IPA. The orange smell was gone but the bitter smell of denatured IPA remained and the consistency changed to super fine powder. So it washed the fumarate again this time with hot water, which it evapped on a casserole dish using a hotplate. The consistency then turned out to be super hard and crystalline (had to use a spatula to scrape it off the casserole dish).
By then it lost about 1g during the two washes. It doesn't think it lost to much unreacted fumaric acid, its more the remains in the coffee filter from IPA washing and on the casserole dish after water evapping, and of course some unreacted fuamric acid.
It could live with that.
One thing it noticed however is the color of the fumarate dissolved in water, which was cloudy brownish, in the BLAB tek it looks clear and brown but more red than its own. So whatever, it decided to to take a gramm and try freebase conversion. So it made some sodium carbonate solution (using hot water, maybe it should have used cold) and dripped that into the hot water dissolved fumarate, which already looked cloudy even after 2 washes, as mentioned before. Because the fumarate was already cloudy it could hardly see the the clouds forming, but it saw some, because its really white, and it smelled the freebase when dripping. So it put that into the fridge for one day (It knows it should have waited longer, but it was a bit impatient and eager to try), and checked this morning to see some crystals forming, which unfortunately didnt stick to the glass, but floated around, it carefully decanted, the still cloudy brown liquid away from the crystals which had about the same color and put it in the fridge again. It then waited ages to dry the watery freebase, at which point it had collected all kinds of dust and dirt, but eventually it did dry.
It then did the first test, with some aluminum foil to check for residue, which was massive and black. It sizzled and black stains remained. At about evening more crystals had formed in the fridge so It dried those with the help of some heat below 100° C (trying to avoid dust and dirt, this time) and combined the two. It then smoked some, which was just now, before it threw it all it the trash, because it was extremely harsh and ineffective.
It would love to get some some full spectrum brownish smokeable stuff using limo, but the described method didnt seem to work at all, maybe its ingredients, maybe its impatience, just didnt work well at all.
any comments are welcome...
