Just Caapi

[DoctorMantus]

So my Cat has just got some caapi leaves, he wants to know could he ingest these orally in a capsule and if so how much?

Has anyone ever take caapi alone and had effects, or do you need the two mixes to do have an experience?

you would have to consume a lot of leaves for it to have an effect... making a tea is probably a better idea. I just don't know how much leaves are needed for this...

make changa!

You can definitely experience effects from the caapi alone. However most use the more potent vine part of the plant to make their teas and extracts usually.. a pretty standard dose is 50g. those leave are perfect for changa..

Yes my cat is aware that he could make some delicious changa, he has made it already, at the moment he was just interested in the caapi alone, thank you for the replies.

I am sure he will figure out what to do with it soon.

He has recently transferred a caapi cutting, from Hawaii, in incubation, she has been through a rough ride and right now just holding on, wish her luck.

vine is not more potent than leaves IME..this is something that alot people think-that leaves are not strong enough to brew..but they are. They dont contain any THH though from what I understand. Dont try to eat them or cap them..brew up 50g of leaf and strain it well..it is more emetic than vine. I dont brew them alone, but I do add a handful of caapi leaf to my brews.

Thanks Jamie, i am glad you told me not to cap them, my cat thinks that brewing will be the best choice.
