Rising Star
Hey everyone 😁

Just wanted to Introduce my self.
Ive been reading this forum for a long time but decided to make an account, Still haven't traveled yet but i hope it will happens soon!
im fascinated by the subject and hope to learn a lot more from Here!
Take care Feel free to PM
 
Hi there SICKFREDDO :) welcome to the nexus.

Do you have any experience with psychedelics? It would be great to hear of any experiences you may have had or what your plans are when you are ready to explore the entheogenic world :)
 
Welcome to the Nexus, SICKFREDO. You have travelled further than you think, in that you have joined the Nexus. It's your first step, a small step but an important one. There are few better places to learn than within this community.

I have to echo the sentiments of my colleagues and ask about what experience you have had thus far with psychedelics? Do you plan on carrying out an extraction any time soon? Have you thought about administering DMT orally? Does Changa or enhanced leaf appeal to you?

You're on an exciting journey my friend, welcome once more to the community. See you around the forums, I'll look forward to hearing more from you during this exciting time.

Peace

Macre
 
Hey Guys :d Good to be back here
So just to fill you guys in since i totally forgot in my introduction, Yes I've had taken psychedelics before mainly psilocybin and LSD about 5 times but i didn't really enjoy LSD, i prefer mushrooms,i always had an awesome time.

although it has been a little while im preparing my self for this journey but first i wanted to learn more about it before touching it, I haven't thought about taking it orally,is it in crystal form? i thought about changa but im not sure where to get the herbs here locally.

On a good note
Swim just finished doing his first extraction, everything went well until after freezing when he drained and placed dish upside down/tilted on wall crystals became a goo, Swim is in the process of recrystallization to make sure is pure , OH Swim also did a soda wash to neutralize any lye,follows by 2 washes of h2o (before placing in partially air drying over night and tossing in freezer).

Swim did
50g Mimosa powdered bark
750ml H2O
Some vinegar ( until ph of 3-4 reached )
50g Lye
40g ice cream salt (i forgot the actual name)
about 75ml naphta (the numbers on my syringe disappeared)


Acid cook
First Swim took the 750ml water and added vinegar until Ph of 4 was reached, after that i placed on a pot brought to boil, added 50g powdered mimosa, let it simmer for 30 minutes.

Let chill for 15 minutes

Add 50g Lye
40g Ice cream salt

shake often to make sure everything dissolved

Add 75ml naphta
spinned/mixed solutions until no layers visible for one minute then let sit until layers separate, this was done about 10 times.

Next extracted naptha onto separate jar making sure so leave any freebase solution behind.

for Cleaning:
Swim took some water added a pinch of soda wash, then added about 30ml to naptha that was pulled, mixed until no layers visible, let sit for layers to separate. took out soda/h20 with pipette and repeated again 2 more time but just plain water. i did this fast i didn't let t sit for long as soon as they separated sucked out the water, and now mixture is outside for it to air dry a bit and tomorrow it will go in the freezer. i was thinking about letting it evaporate all but not sure, when evaporated is it white clumps or is still crystals?
PS let me know if swim skipped any steps or did something wrong

See ya later
:p
 
It's always worth evaporating before freezing. When you can give the naphtha a good blow and it starts to cloud up, then your solvent is well saturated with DMT and it's a good time to freeze.

I would leave a total evaporation to the end, till you've freeze precipitated as much as possible. What is left depends on how much you have precipitated out, and on the quality of your naphtha. Before carrying out an extraction it is wise to perform an evaporation test on your naphtha, by allowing it to to evaporate and checking to see if there's any residue left.

A far as taking DMT orally, there are a few options. I would personally choose Ayahuasca, using Caapi and Psychotria Viridis (or Chaliponga) though there are other options. This method has been used for thousands of years. There are also options of several plants to add to the brew.

Some people choose to replace Caapi with another MAOI such as Syrian Rue. Further deviation from the traditional method comes in the form of Mimosahuasca and Pharmahuasca. All the information required can be found within the Nexus.

Whichever method you use; an MAOI is utilised to make DMT orally active. If you are currently on a course of SSRIs or SNRIs you must not take MAOIs, until you have stopped taking MAOIs for at least six weeks, but it's probably better to wait even longer. Mixing the two can lead to coma or death, so it must never be done.

Sounds like you're off to a good start, so I wish you well with your extraction. If ever you get stuck, the Nexus is here to guide and help.

Swims Results:

First pull about 0.3g (Swim doesnt have a proper scale)

Images bellow


after mixing all pulls total of 6 swim has 0.8g from 50g of bark :d

Let swim know what you think

Oh and Macre swim tried leaving until cloudy and worked like a charm, a question tho after freeze when swim drained the naphtha it was still cloudy looking after been left over night, does that mean it might be getting cold enough to crystallize it all? swim reused it just in case.

How many freeze precips have you carried out? Sounds like you can freeze the solvent again, and/or freeze the solvent for longer.

Peace

Swim did 4 short pulls consisting of about 30 min of mixing (mix for a min wait for separationg) then he let it sit over night on the crockpot with keeping it warm swim do mix while on the warm bath to make sure solvent absorbs the good, and yes swim think it can do another freeze but swim might slowdry swim doesn't think is getting cold enough in there. Swim thought about buying dry ice but he's not sure how that would work
 
How long are you freezing your solvent for? You may be correct, in that your freezer isn't as cold as it could be. It may be worth trying a freeze for a few days, maybe evaporating a bit more could help.

It is better to try and freeze precip as much product as possible. A slower precipitation or evap has the chance to leave more goo, though this does depend on the naphtha you're using. I would suggest a longer freeze, on as low a setting as possible.

it was in there for over 18 hr, but it looked like there were particles in there swim mixed it with another pull to freeze tonight a lot of flakes formed over the day is looking good we'll see tomorrow, i did evaporate all day today, i might leave it in there until tomorrow night depending on how is looking keeping my fingers crossed :thumb_up:

Swim Appreciates the help :d Macre
 
You're welcome and I hope all goes well. I noticed you mentioned dry ice, would the purpose of this be as a cooling agent to help precipitation?

I don't really have the expertise to advise on this, but perhaps your end product may not be as pure, due to the low temperatures enabling the impurities to precipitate along with the spice.

I'm also not sure what effect this would have on the naphtha as far as freezing goes, but it may have some effect on this. There will be other members with more expertise who can give you a better answer, so please don't hold me to it.

Please do let us know how you get on, and post pics :D

Peace
