Is this Changa and do ya think it will work?

[AgentClaret]

I just made about a bowl of changa or so I think. I took a pinch of passionflower, pinch of cannabis, and a pinch of spice in a shot glass. I ran the glass in a hot water bath until the crystals melted. I swirled it all around to mix with the herbs. A little residual liquid was present so it's under a lamp, but not too close.

I'm also making a little passionflower tea.

Is this going to be insightful? I'm going to get some proper harmala or Syrian Rue soon to try that out next time.

I know technically I oughta use a lot more of each and make a solution with the spice, but I don't have a lot right now to play around and waste. It seems kinda sacrilegious to waste it anyway.

Have also got a gulp or two of spice to the side in case.

Will post results.

Yep, it worked!

I made a very small bit in the bottom of a shot glass. VERY little, like 3 hits worth. My buddy came over and we started off by hitting it in my normal metal bowl. I got confused on my methods (done a lotta reading in the past few days) and sandwiched it between screens so it didn't really hit or do anything yet.

We hit the glass stem of crystal a couple times and for various reasons were feeling held back by stupid human stuff. I felt the rush wanting to take me but couldn't let go tonight. Ah well, I'm beginning to see that's the nature of the beast.

So I somehow gained enough clarity to remove the top sandwich layer from my 'changa' bowl. I took 2 big hits off it and held them in.

It worked! I'm laying on the ledge of a step down onto carpet with my head over the edge and the carpet is breathing! Not only that but even though it's a plain carpet, the shadows and texture of the pile were flowing and vibrating!

What's more, I didn't feel the urge to close my eyes and let go. That always sort of feels a tad bit like the raping of my humanity. I can talk and describe what I'm seeing to my buddy.

While watching this amazing carpet I had the feeling of receiving something, which is the realization that Changa IS pretty cool. I could almost see a blueprint in my mind of smoking changa for a little while to pre-divorce from humanity comfortable and then take a blast or two of crystal to really transcend. It was like a step by step plan. It was nice because it felt like I was allowed to experience parts of DMT while still able to stay human about it. I had that all over vibration and glowing good feeling while staying corporeal the whole time. Unfortunately I had no MRIs and only made very little so it went away quickly.

I'm about out of spice now and feel like a desperate crack head wanting more (though not tonight of course, just frequently in the future). I'll probably give the actual solvent TEK a shot next time but this was actually a bit more than I expected. Going to work out some strategies to get the mental technology just right...

What you made would be considered enhanced leaf, "changa is typically used to describe enhanced leaf + harmalas (MAOI's).

I would really recommend weighing your doses and the plant material that you enhance so that you can know exactly how much you are ingesting at a time, and work your way up to larger doses. The density of DMT crystals can vary tremendously, so 10mg of one batch can look like a lot more or a lot less than 10mg of a different batch.

I can't say from experience, but I would guess that dissolving DMT in solvent and evaporating the solvent onto plant matter might be less wasteful than just melting the DMT.

A little residual liquid was present so it's under a lamp, but not too close.

It looks like maybe you put water in the shot glass with the herbs/apice? If you do the heat bath tek for enhanced leaf/changa, you should be putting the herbs at the bottom of the shot glass, spice on top, covering that with saran wrap, and then putting the shot glass into a separate bowl with the hot water. The heat from outside the shot glass should melt your DMT in about 5 minutes or so, then stir, stir, stir.

With the solvent teks the herbs and spice go into the liquid, but not with the heat bath tek. In my experience, the solvent teks get the spice more evenly distributed in the herbs, but the difference in negligible, especially if your starting with not much spice.

If you're making changa, I like Continuum, would advocate using solvents (acetone or isopropyl alcohol), but regardless of the solution you create, I would use more DMT, more plant material - weigh everything out so you get even ratios - and then you can split it up into doses appropriately afterward. I've found the changa-making process to be relatively hit or miss when using smaller amounts of DMT. It just doesn't seem to work out the same. The carpet and your aesthetics were clearly transformed a bit, but that doesn't really come anywhere near approaching the potentials of changa. Use a gram or half a gram for both a sufficient amount of DMT (to be split up later) as well as to calculate how much you're consuming by using plant ratios of the plant material to be compared with the final weight of the changa.

If you were using the small amounts because of experimentation and you weren't sure if it would work, and didn't wanna waste spice, well I can relate to that too.

Yeah, global, that's pretty much the deal. I'm comfortable enough with the solvent teks (I've used similar for other things) but I just didn't have much crystal left and wasn't sure I was doing things right. It was very encouraging though! Next time I'll probably start with making at least a half gram with some proper harmalas/harmaline thrown in.

I feel like I oughta make a mental note of the cool 'non-disconnecty' visuals. I bet every changa tek ends up having a different texture and I definitely liked that one. I remember grinning real hard the whole time on the changa and that's never happened with DMT to me before.
