first successful extraction ? pictures

[lloydy2013]

SWIM did his first extraction and he "thinks" it was successful, only problem SWIM has is that from 50g of powdered MHRB he got a real small yield of only about 3 hits, only the first pull has crystals in. SWIM is still DMT virgin until tomorrow, very nervous but excited SWIM is . does anybody have any idea why such a small yield?

SWIM was also wondering if this looked like good DMT ?

keep pulling maybe? How much solvent was evapped for what's in the picture?

It looks like your evap dish is a small ceramic bowl so that probably means not much. You might try using another round of naptha/limonene/etc on your water solution. I also recommend a larger dish too... that looks like it'd take 4 months to evap from lol.
I plan to use a long metal sheet with upturned corners... It tested well :d

You would need to provide MUCH more information in order for anyone to really be helpful.

What extraction tek did you use.

What were the steps you followed. What did you do. Times, materials... all that.

No one can tell you if its good DMT from a pic. And if its just DMT then its good DMT.

Ahh that makes more sense then lol.
Yes, post your steps exactly and it'd be much easier to find the problem.
If you didn't this time, writing everything down helps a lot. All the little quirks I/we(?) add are what make new things, teks
The creative process 8)

SWIM used cybs atb tek and followed steps exactly has it is said , 50g powdered bark , no twerks was made , SWIM followed it exactly how it is wrote on the tek

Hard to tell from that Pic...but it looks like a lot more than 3 hits.
Be sure to weigh your doses.

Perhaps you had some low % bark.

 

[lloydy2013]

it is about the size of a thumb nail when spread out, SWIM scales are messed up now so is going to have to estimate doses, any tips on doing so ? and SWIM also thought this too about the bark

thanks for reply's guys

 

[cyb]

estimate doses, any tips on doing so ?

20-25mg dose (plenty) looks approx equivalent to a grain of rice in size. Really quite small.
Be careful.


Edit;
Just to be clear...the 'volume' of a cooked swollen grain using crushed, powdered xtal.

thanks for that reply good job ! SWIM would be on another planet if wasn't for you haha !

I cannot really tell what those pixels are. But from what I see it looks like your base soup wasn't based enough and your np solvent pulls grabbed only the oils in your plant. That's my complete guess, I don't know. Id basify your soup more and do a couple more pulls. Have you tried evapping half your np solvent before freezing?

Really?

What kind of rice? Dry or wet? 25mg of my yellow is about 2.5 grains of hard dry white rice. I'll recheck when I get home cause I could be mistaken.

OP, if you can get your hands on some mg scoops, got mine on amazon, they work well as far as variability. You won't know how much you actually have without a scale but you can atleast learn by feel starting with 1 scoop and moving up.

hey thanks for the reply , what do you mean by basing the soup more , adding more lye ?
SWIM and a friend tried the DMT today , it is thought that the doses wasn't enough since only got very itchy and tingly , a little dizzy and light headed and felt nice for a minute or 2 , something deffinately happened but no trips or visuals , apart from when closed eyes very nice patterns but they was not vivid and was only there for 30 seconds maybe . SWIM will be doing another extraction when the time is right and probably double the dose up.
