Fuck yah!!
Right on man, is it any sticky or gooier than the Mimosa extracted stuff?
I may try this out on some Chacruna once I'm finished with the Mimosa extraction I'm still doing.
Did you do the same exact process again?
Or were there any other necessary steps to take when doing this with a leaf?
I have some Chaliponga here too, I'll have to give that a try as well.
But I'm really excited about using some DMT-Fumarate from Chacruna, plus a mix of Harmalas to make Pharmauasca!!
Also, I've always been a bit curious about the subtle differences in the DMT extracted from the various plant sources, but to extract from leafy material in the past was too much of a pain for me to really consider.
So if this works as well with other sources, I think I'm going to make a small collection of DMT from a number of different plants!!
Ya know...I was thinking, in Terence McKenna's "classic" description of DMT & the smoked DMT experience, he talked about it being a "light orangish, waxy substance, the consistency of crayons, or hard earwax".
Plus his description of the experience was, too me, a bit more reminiscent of the effects I got from "Jungle Spice" I've extracted from Mimosa than had already been extracted using Naptha. So it probably was weak in N,N-DMT.
I used Xylene to pull the spent bark again & I swear, that gooey crap never did fully dry out. I did eventually try some of it however & it was good stuff, if you could get past the never-dying chemical scent.
Anyway, I also remember reading one time when I first started researching this stuff, that back in McKenna's heyday, they where either using Synthed DMT, or they were doing extensive, difficult extractions on Mimosa & Chaliponga that used Xylene, or Toluene as the solvent (the early days of DMT extraction...). Then recrystalizing, over & over & over again until they had something that was somewhat solid.
So I'd bet that the spice extracted here is a better, cleaner version of what the ole' pioneers were talking about.
Like I said earlier, the shitty, gooey Jungle Spice I pulled out of spent Mimosa bark with Xylene was much more "three dimensional"...if that makes any sense...and that was the only stuff I've ever experienced that had the distinct "sucking motion & sounds where the walls met the ceiling & floor" of the "place" I went to, like TMK always talked about!!
I'm excited to smoke some...maaaaybe tonight...maaaaybe tomorrow!!
:d
