The last pull just left some film on the bottom of the evap dish so I guess I didn't need to run to the store for naptha but I'll end up using it so no big deal. My crop now has no smell. No floral, naptha, sneaker etc. no smell at all.
It's hitting me right now, the realization I'm actually going to vape this stuff and I'm a little nervous. Will it do nothing, or everything? I don't have a mg scale so I'm not real sure how to do the sandwich method with any accuracy but I do plan on dilluting 1 gram into 4ml of e-juice and dripping my Limitless Plus. I hear that works rather well.
In all my reading I've come to the conclusion that this works similar to salvia and can grab you by the ninnys and throw you around a bit. I'm about as informed as one can get (reasonably speaking) with plain leaf salvia, extracts and tincs as I've gone through an unestimatable amount of pounds in my day. It's been awhile since I've been in the boat of not knowing what to expect and it's kind of exciting. Hopefully God will be with me on this one. Do you guys remember your first time? I'm not sure how many drops to put on my coils so I'll start with 2 drops per coil, 2 coils puts me @ 4 drops of solution.
Here's another question for you guys. I tried brewing up some Ayahuasca, 7 grams mhrb and 50 grams "red" caapi. Lightly boiled until reduced 3 times, collected the pour offs and reduced them to a cup. Drank, watched the clock, and blew chunks at about an hour in. The effects I got were subtle but notecable. Some closed eye activity was apparent but I ended up dosing off.
When I woke up my entire body felt like your head does when it lays on your pillow just right and your pillow cradles your head so perfectly you don't want to move. You knkw what I'm talking about? I've never heard that described in a trip report before but it definately wasn't placebo.
I thought it might be due to weak mhrb that I didn't get more effects but now that I've done this rather sloppy extraction I can gauge my bark at around the average 1.5% so it's not that. Aside from splitting up the caapi/root bark boils and drinking the caapi about 20 mins before the rb do you have any suggestions to get full effects?
One weird thing when I drank the brew was that when I tasted it I got the feeling like I'd done it before. I've never drank it before but I swear it was so familiar like watching a movie you've forgotten about and then remembering where you were when you watched it as a kid. It's a pretty distinct taste so I doubt I'm getting it mixed up with some other sort of tea. It probably is what it is, but I thought that was pretty strange.
*edit - Oh yeah, where I think I screwed up on the extraction. I said I was doing the Lazyman tek but I was actually doing a tek based off the Lazyman Tek and since reading the suggested ly/water/bark ratio in the FAQ I found out I was just a tad light on my lye measurement. Whether or not that's actually what the problem was I don't know but when cleaning I used the ratios suggested in the FAQ and the results speak for themselves. The good news is I have a better idea of what to do if I need to fix anything in the future so I have some back up plans in my arsenal incase anything goes wacky from here on out. I want to try it with ACRB now and see if I can pull off the defat step and from there start trying freeze precipitation and actually come up with a crystal worthy of posting in the "just some crystals" thread. That thread is insane.
