ommani said:ron, can SWIY say anything more about the qualitative / experiential difference between pedro and torch extract? what about any differences in terms of the overall yield? difference in potency? swim is on a budget at this point and wishes to spend his money wisely, which he has not always done in the past... swim agrees that low dose cactus is AWESOME... just up to the point of the slightest visual effects has been the most euphoric for swim... swim went snowboarding one day after eating a few grams of torch and some cocoa nibs, which was great, and seemed to improve swim's riding...69ron said:The Torch extract will be more pure mescaline. San Pedro has a higher amount of other alkaloids present.
SWIM LOVES STRONG COFFEE WITH MESCALINE! If you haven't tried it DO IT! I think that's much better than mescaline with cocoa. But to be fair, SWIM never tried really strong cocoa with it.
The Torch extract feels like mescaline far more than San Pedro does. The Torch is unreliable. Sometimes it's very potent, sometime it's very weak. San Pedro is your best bet because it's potency is generally more predicable.
San Pedro has a lot of these amber/brown alkaloids in it that have their own psychedelic effects. SWIM has separated them and has experienced the non-mescaline San Pedro alkaloids on their own. They produce a relaxed peaceful dreamy state of mind, make you slightly numb, cause a pleasant tingling sensation in the body, and also cause visual effects which are unlike those of mescaline (things look strangely animated). When they are taken together with the mescaline, they mellow out the experience, making it more dreamy, more relaxed.
SWIM prefers PURE mescaline. The Torch is the closest to pure mescaline you can get using this type of vinegar based tech. Pure mescaline is more clear headed, more euphoric, and has less body load for SWIM than the mixed San Pedro alkaloids have. It all depends on what you prefer. Sometimes SWIM prefers the mixed alkaloids of San Pedro, especially when he wants to sit back, relax and have visions, because it's a much more dreamy state that it puts you in, and really geared towards close eye visions. Pure mescaline is more for interacting with reality because it lacks that dreaminess.
