My first extraction. RESULTS + PICS

[Solar Jetman]

Evening everyone.

I did noman's tek the other day and followed it to the letter. I haven't done the NaOH yet but will get round to it this weekend hopefully. I don't know how much is there because my scales arn't accurate enough for .mg measurements. This is the result of 2 pulls of MHRB.



Reckon this'll be enough for hyperspace initiation?

:thumb_up: Verily nice!:thumb_up:

How many grams of mimosa hostilis did you use?

and how many grams of DMT did you pull overall?

Looks pure!

 

[AfroHorror]

That's awesome, no doubt.
Has it been tested yet?

 

[Pandora]

I'm sure it's enough if vaped correctly for several journeys.

I'd really recommend investing in a small jeweler's scale in the mg range. You can get them on amazon.com and elsewhere for well under $40, shipping included. It's really worth the money.

Nicely done!


Hard to say by the pic, but as Pandora said, that looks like enough for at least a few visits.


Congratulations!

 

[Solar Jetman]

Thanks guys.

I'm looking at some scales to buy from amazon at the moment.

Also i'm trying my 3rd pull so hopefully should be a little more

your first extraction? man no way! :d

 

[MomentOfTruth]

what do you mean you haven't done the NaOH yet?

Adding NaOH(lye) is the first thing you do after putting water in your extraction vessel.

Nice little extraction though!

How much bark did you use?


also, try these...

good inexpensive scales

 

[Solar Jetman]

Ahh yeah soz. I meant the sodium bi-carb wash. Got a bit mixed up then.

nice one cheers. Yeah man they look lush. Just this minute bought a sherlock and gonna invest in some scales.



EDIT: Got those scales. Really good price as well

 

[MomentOfTruth]

Good deal man! Enjoy your extracting and make sure to share your experiences!

If you didn't get any brown lye/bark/water drops into your crystallization dish then the spice should be plenty clean to use without a sodium bicarbonate wash. I've never washed my DMT. I'm very careful when pulling my solvent and rarely get any contaminates into my crystallization dish. I usually recrystallize my spice to get rid of any possible impurities but never wash.

If you were careful then both are unnecessary steps. But if you are worried you can always RE-X the spice and yield fairly pure crystals.

Its totally up to you though. Only experience will allow you to make those judgements with confidence!

 

[Solar Jetman]

Thanks for the advice dude.

When I pulled my spice I used a glass pipette which took a while but ensured no bark mixture got in the extraction jars. I think it's a good way to go for pulling small amounts.

I will do. Can't wait to start up my travelog.

cheers :d

Ok, so if this is not inappropriate.What country are you from and how did you get all the ingredients?Any problems along the way?

Just curious really because it is your first try, and a successful one.

I gave many thoughts about doing this myself and came to the obvious conclusion that the most dangerous step is getting the actual ingredients and then I multiplied it by 20 because of the place I live in

Hi. I'm from the UK. And had no problems at all with my extraction.

Just curious really because it is your first try, and a successful one.

I just ghosted the forum for a few weeks before joining up, gathering teks and suggestions. I chose Noman's tek and did it to the letter. I left my pulls in the freezer for just over 24hrs.

I got the MHRB from an online vendor who states the bark was freshly picked in August this year. I've had stuff from them before and ain't had any problems at all. Even had a tracking number lol. They label the MHRB as 'Sandlewood' to get it through customs.

I gave many thoughts about this and the most dangerous step is getting the actual ingredients...

As for the extraction kit, I didn't run into any probs at all. I shopped around and payed mainly in cold hard cash 8)

I wouldn't worry about the fuzz smashing your door down as long as you plan ahead and be clever.

Looks like a great yield. I'm still in research mode but I think I have an ingredient vendor. So, about a month behind you. Been reading everything I can first.
