How would you safely neutralize about 2.5 gallons of 14ph lye water, or better yet 12 gallons? I did some experiments yesterday with just a cup of lye water. I mixed muriatic acid in with water and then slowly added that to the lye. it very slowly came down but at the last second it seemed to just from 12ph to .2 with just a little bit added. or like 650ml of acid/water made it go from 14 to 12, then just 50-100ml of acid mix brought it from 12 to .2.

i would prefer to neutralize then just dump on the ground because my house is hooked up to a septic tank and i dont know about dumping all the lye stuff into it.

Side question, just so i know I'm not fucking it up. 9000ml water+1kg lye + 1kg bark. correct?
 
It seems like you should read the following two links.
Idk why you are attempting a 1kg extraction at all, much less before you know how to handle it safely.
50g to 100g extractions should yield plenty and give you ample opportunity to practice appropriate cleanup.


 
you are indeed f--king up if your , doing more than a 50g to 100g extract ,

smaller is much more efficent ! ! and much safer ! !

i can really only think of one reason to foolisly try to extract a kilo ,

and that prophet motivated behavior is not aproved here ,

read the Attitude rules redbird linked

Because of this, the answer to this,
just so i know I'm not fucking it up
is yes. You ought to know how to safely dispose of everything after your extraction process.

To be more on the nose:

No commercial-scaled extractions and reckless “spreading”

The Nexus is not a place for commercial operations and we do not want to support drug dealers; we believe in using these substances for personal use.

If and when sharing these substances, we believe that it has to be done without money or other payments involved, with a careful approach and care when facilitating the introduction and/or experience of others.

It is imperative to take care that the person ingesting has no contraindicating medical/psychological history, takes it in a proper set and setting, and correct dosage/method of ingestion. This cannot be done if the substances are spread on a large scale. We do not want to "turn on the world", those who are ready will seek it. Indiscriminate spreading of psychedelics can lead to potential serious damage to people and is a big legal liability. Big extractions (and the preparations leading to it and gathering of materials) can attract the attention of the Law.

Spreading of the message of psychedelics itself through superficial YouTube videos showing use or extractions can also cause a lot of damage to the community (as happened with salvia) and is frowned upon.

One love
 
ok yeah. i see yalls point. thanks for the links, i read them over.

for what its worth, ive done a couple 100g extractions. i was entertaining the kilo extraction for the same reason I shop at Costco. save time and money. ive just kinda always been like that. Maybe my dads prepper tendencies rubbed off on me.
