Gleditsia triacanthos (Honey locust) is indeed entheogenic.

Maybe some type of dry tek with ethanol would be enough.

okey, my interest is peaking here rn



was thinking about planting one of those anyway for other reasons (good for soil, pods are good for chickens)

what part would be active? does it contains DMT?

Thanks. What is a dry Tek? Forgive my ignorance

Its conjectured that the root bark is the most active part, and yes, at least theoretically/anecdotally, DMT. I think that's what we're trying to get to the bottom of here lol.

There's also some conjecture that fresh (red, new growth) thorns may contain a high concentration of the active principle, but they are also likely to contain triacanthine, which I believe has some toxic properties, but I could be mistaken

All it will take to have more answers here is a few people with access to wild populations try some rootbark extractions and get them tested. Then we can know if these claims are actually legit or not. I’m still looking around nurseries for larger trees that are not grafted.

I still need to look at pulling a few roots out of one of my hedgerows. Is it likely to be similar to Mimosa hostilis, where a prolonged dry spell boosts the alkaloid levels? That would make it simpler than having to grub around in a muddy ditch, too.

Yeah, I wonder what environmental and genetic factors influence alkaloid content. Seems like this species needs a bunch of testing. I'm still wondering if anyone can confirm that it does in fact contain dmt

At the moment Keeper trout reported finding it way back but no bioassay…and the more recent P.D. Newman bioassays. I am unaware of anyone else reporting it as active.

Sounds like more data is needed. If anyone wants to test some, pm.
