Migrated topic.

Okay so SWIM has his vinegar, pickling lime, but I need to order the d-limonene online as SWIM doesn’t know where to buy it locally. I was hoping to find a solution at safeway or riteaid (only major brand stores around SWIMS little town) but all I found was goo-gone and not sure if that will make anything "toxic" for smoking. From my understanding is that the d-limonene is just a non toxic solvent that helps dissolve "salt"(I could be wrong I was never a chem pro so i always double check).

Does anyone know if the safeway brand called "Bright Green all purpose dilutable cleaner" will work? It says lemon scented, bio-degradable, and non-toxic on it.



But the real question is there an alternative to d-limonene?

*Update/Edit: I'm willing to purchase online but I would like to buy locally.
 
Also SWIM has done an A/B extraction before and wants to use the non-toxic route as much as possible so even if an alternative is a "toxic" solution then let me know he just needsto know what should replace the d-limonene
 
Good question. I too would like to know where to obtain d-limonene locally, since it's ALWAYS better to pay in person with cash than to order something on the net.

I'd like to add one caveat to your other question though...what is a d-limonene substitute in the case of Phalaris extractions?

sunflower oil.

really? That's unbelievable. Just straight sunflower oil that you can get in the grocery store? Evaporation/crystallization must be close to impossible, right?
 
click the tek I linked to. You wont be evaporating this stuff lol. You have to salt it out..which is ideal anyway. Whats the point of evaporating non polar solvents at this point in the evolution of DMT teks? You cant freeze precip with sunflower oil either..you must salt it.
 
What about naptha? I can get that right away. Is it possible to use naptha instead of d-lemonene for 69ron tek? Or am i just making it harder on my self for this route?

you might be able too, but i see no reason it would be preferable.

imo just stick to oil and salting.

Jamie: every time I click the link it tells me "you've sent an invalid value to the form" and then reroutes me back to the main page.

Got another URL, or maybe a title I can search for?

There used to be a topic about it, i have it bookmarked too, but it gives the same error.

If you search for Hippie Salad in SEARCH you will find a couple of other threads about this.. perhaps the original author could repost the full tek?
 
If you're not looking for a hippie/food-safe tek, xylene is the best option.

Limonene first came into use when 69Ron noticed its similarity to xylene.
 
See q21q21 tek.

Follow the version called "Fluffy White Funfest" for use with naphtha, this is actually much easier than using full spectrum solvents because you can skip the whole salting process and simply freeze precipitate your product.

Regarding oil, xylene, or toulene follow the version called "The Jim Jam Party" Oil can be substituted for limonine in this version. Hey q21, if you see this I'd like to recommend renaming that that one to the "The Jim Jam Jamboree" because it sounds awesome that way. 😁
 
I didn't want to make a new thread with regards to this because I'm not certain if it has been answered elsewhere, but I am a bit confused as to the location of the Hippy Oil Salad Tek thread? I have found the few other threads talking about similar methods (from what I understand) while doing research, but can't seem to locate it.


Or is it that it is basically the Q21Q21 tek substituting oil (olive or sunflower, etc) instead of limonene?
