Local Changa

(*Disclaimer: I Disclaim the following... I'm lying because I want to be cool.)


I will starting my journey with DMT soon (a few days maybe) and want to make a changa mix from local plants. I feel a real need to "initiate" my self in this process.

The first time someone offered me mushrooms I declined. Instead I went through the months process of learning the mycology involved and guided a lot of Cubes into this would and they reciprocated with love and gratitude. I think it really helped.

So I wonder if anyone has any tips about finding out what local plants are suitable? I have thought about contacting the local native population here... but even then It's not likely they smoke alot of the plants they use.

Any Tips? I live In Halifax Nova Scotia, Canada
(I don't care who knows since my IP screams it anyway)

Not sure about your local plantlife but I ordered a bunch of stuff from maya and on each herbs bag its says the country its from. In my little box of herbs I have specimens from all around the world. Brazil, china, peru, france, iran, south africa. Its kool to think these items coming from all around the world coming together for me. The only thing I know of in my area is white sage but I havnt tried collecting a specimen yet. If you do order something caapi is a must.
-Goodluck and safe journeys

well I figure I'll still have to use Caapi or rue, but I think flavoring it with local energy might be good for me.... I am looking for allies that might all ready be vested in my energy... I really don't know what I mean.
It's Shamanism by the seat of my pants.

I'm not expecting anyone to know about plants in my area, I'm asking for advise on how to find out. Probably the fist time I partake in the spice I will go with the intention of learning how to use the spice. Probably how man found out in the first place.

I use all wild plants and some that I grow as well for the bases of my changas.

There's a great guide on the interwebs about herbal smoking blends, generally made from plants which grow on the Pacific Coast... I know that probably doesn't help too much, but it's something. Try to find it! I can't right now, but it's there somewhere. Mentions madrona bark, blackberry leaves, scotch broom, etc.

EDIT: Found it! http://home.teleport.com/~howieb/smoking/smoke1.html

That helps, thanks. I can see myself smoking some leaf/bark/root of the huge tree in the back yard that watched me grow up.

Any Tips?

Yes! About a week ago I've started a thread here where I was exploring any possibility of making my *huasca from legal plants. Because caapi, hostilis and rue are illegal in Poland, I was forced to look for other possibilities. DMT-plant is easy to find but finding a good one is a more tricky thing. Heck, you can even try to master extracting the spice from grasses! The real problem is a good MAOi plant. If you find one, drop a line. I was looking for something that would replace caapi or rue, to no avail...

I'm pretty sure It's the same in this area. I know there is Phalaris arundinacea everywhere here. And it has NN,5meo and β-carboline (MAOI) in it at once. I think it might take a crazy amount... but then again i actually could get a whole truck load of it.

(I know this is something nexus wizards are working on)
