hey all,
before i post the problem, i wanted to clarify that despite my number of posts, i've been lurking in the shadows on this forum for the past few months...i'm at the point where i need to ask some questions as searching for relevant posts has still left me scratching my head....so here goes...
the main event: i did my first extraction with 2lbs of powdered mhrb...naptha, ammonia, blah blah....nice bunch of white crystals....
i proceeded to smoke it in a freebase pipe...cannot remember the amounts because i varied it each time due to not having a breakthrough...not even close....just the ungodly burning plastic vapor tearing up my windpipe each hit....i attempted this on 6 different occasions, each time varying the amount of crystals and my vaporizing technique....i was obviously doing something wrong and i was trying to figure out what...
got fed up, said screw it and put it all away for a couple months....
rematch: decided to start fresh and converted 2lbs of powdered mhrb using q21q21s tek...lime, limonene, blah blah....evaporated the liquid to a nice, slightly viscous orange liquid....in a ticture bottle...
tried infusing some Heimia Salicifolia with my tincture...the herb never dried...it just looked moist and gooey a few hours later....said what the hell and tried smoking it...this time, my mouth and windpipe was greeted with such an ungodly sour vapor, that i actually considered barfing....took as many hits as i could and then rushed off to chug something sweet and brush my teeth....
a few days later, i tried it again...the new herb i had infused the day before was still wet and gooey...same result as above...
today, i decided to evap the liquid and smoke it as shown at the bottom of q21q21s tek...heated with a torch till it stopped bubbling and steaming....dark goo left....tried smoking it in my freebase pipe...same gd thing :evil: ....nothing even close to a breakthrough....i'm frustrated....please help me out and point out what i may be doing wrong....any advice is GREATLY appreciated....
