I have done quite a bit of reading on the forum here. I probably spent a good week as a lurker just reading former posts before I even created an account. I decided if I was going to find a community to ask questions about this then it might as well be a group of like-minded people. The thread that sold me on the group was the one where everyone was talking guy out of selling the stuff.

I think that the crystal extraction might be easier, but I am more interested in the ayahuasca than the smokeable and I very much want to attempt both. The biggest questions I have is the best place for ingredients and what is the best way to ship it. I am sure there is a thread here somewhere, but I just haven't found it yet. I'll be honest I've done a lot more skimming of the FAQs than reading. When it gets a little closer to the time that I plan to start extracting I'll be reading in more detail. For now it's all educational.

I have tried mushrooms on multiple occasions, but I have yet to understand why they are called psychedelics, since the only thing that I ever actually saw was a wavy door. LSD kinda scares me. I've talked to more former LSD users who say it's a bad idea than ones that actually liked it AND I much prefer to stick to all natural forms of drugs. Every time I've thought about it I just remember the 'brown acid' quote from Woodstock.
