Need some advice about low potency STB extraction

Ok so SWIM followed this TEK STB Extract to the T except for two things,

1. SWIM didn't have sodium carbonate so SWIM used sodium bicarbonate (baking soda) and cooked it in the oven for about an hour an a half until it became sodium bicarbonate then used that for the wash.

2. SWIM didn't have a PH tester so SWIM just guest. SWIM could have very well of put to much in.

(SWIM did only freeze precip it for 48 hours but there was evident crystals so SWIM was to exited to wait.)

The end result is what is pictured here. Three piles of spice. Small one slightly yellow, next to biggest pure pure white, and the next biggest off white with almost a pink tint. All of them seem to have a really soapy consistency when SWIM breaks up the crystals.

The problem: The spice has no potency. SWIM tried some using THE MACHINE and it was like a really really mellow body high pretty much but nothing like what SWIM has read reports on about hyperspace. What could be wrong? Could it be the quality of the MHRB itself because SWIM got it from a pretty reputable vendor recommended by several members here. Could SWIM have messed up the spice in the wash pre freeze precip? Thanks for the help everyone.

your spice looks good..... but is inactive? If it is good mimosa then you are not getting enough in. Maybe you are not vaping properly and burning it up...or maybe you are not taking enough tokes... or maybe you are loading up too little.

But bottom line, if that came from proper bark... you should be getting launched out of your brain.

That is what I would think as well but not so much.. =( I know its being done correctly though and with a good amount. The amount needed with this to get anywhere close to hyperspace would be enormous with this. I just don't get it.

swim had the same problem, ended up throwing all of it into one bowl and still didnt get much,..... maybe swim burnt it though, still have no idea what happended really though. But swim is in the middle of his second extraction and hopefully all will be better. Who did you get the bark from?

We haven't really established how much you are trying to vaporize. Do you have a scale?

Ive never done a carbonate wash... so I don't know if its possible.. but do you think you diluted your spice with it?

How much bark did you use and how much spice did you get out of it? If you got more than a gram of dmt per 100 grams of bark then maybe allot of what we see in your pictures is just carbonate.

SWIM Started with 1lb MHRB and the yield was about...3 1/2 grams or so.

But yes, I personally think somehow something got diluted and the polar wash is the only thing I could think of that was slightly different. I mean being that as I posted SWIM used bicarbonate instead and cooked it down into bc instead of starting out with soda ash. Swim also didn't have a ph test so SWIM had to guess the sc amount to make the wash with.

SWIM is trying to vaporize it by the way. :(

SWIM has but nothing "breakthrough". The two chances SWIM has had a chance to try it, he did it out of a light bulb first (which doesn't work very well) and the next time off tin foil (which granted works better but for one thing its tin foil (YUK!!) and two you still cant get the vape size you really need.). I know the two times SWIM tried it, it was much stronger than a BIG hit SWIMs pulled of "The Machine" with this stuff.

Also I might mention it burns slightly when SWIM hits it, like lye burn but that could just be SWIM.

I also might mention SWIM had a friend with them who also tried it and also didn't really experience anything short of a really intense body high.

Might be something with your bicarbonate creation. I'dd melt it down and try again in smaller batches as it looks realatively good. Probaly not high enough ph. I'm still more or less at a loss...perhaps you have a tolerance.

Just sprinkle the tinest ammout of pot in a common wooded pipe, then a good dose of DMT and on the top of that a little bit of peppermint tea. When you light this up you will burn the mint but not the DMT, it will only get hot enough to vaporize and then you won't be wasting any more spice like I did when I used a light bulb!!:)

Mixing pot and dmt is a terrible idea IME. Id been a regular pot user for years and always had difficulty remembering my experiences, they were also very "dull".

After giving up pot ive had much more memorable journeys.
