I am not going to go into any great detail yet about this, but psilocybe alkaloids do work very well in my experience as a snuff. It seems they are much more active this way as opposed to oral, come on within 5 minutes and the experience is shorter. Body effects are very clean and clear, very similar to DMT. Mentally it feels cleaner as well.
I have only tested a very light dose once so far. It was enough to achieve a nice tryptamine glow. No closed eye visuals or visions, but a mild open eye visual enhancement and very nice mental effects. The dose would have been to low to produce this effect orally.
The preperation I worked with was a tincture, becasue I have been experimenting with sublingual psilocybe alkaloids, which also works very well and produces a clean and clear more condensed experience..but I will talk about that elsewhere.
I snuffed just two drops of the tincture as a tester dose. It was prepared by making a tea with a small ammount of ascorbic acid and lemon, filtering and evaporating down to a resin on lowest setting in a dehydrator, and then redissolving the resin in minimal ammount of water/vinegar mix in a tincture bottle. I cant get ethanol here which is why I did it this way. The tincture was then stored in the freezer to keep it fresh, and thawed out before each use. At this dose I was baseline within 2 hours. Same timeframe with sublingual. Might go longer with larger visionary doses, but it is definatly shorter and cleaner than even tea.
Next time for a snuff I would follow a more traditional virola style recipe..where a dry water extract/resin is mixed with small ammounts ashes or some other kind of bulking agent so that the resin can be powdered.
I always had a feeling this would work quite well. More and more people have been telling me how great 4acoDMT works as a snuff, and I have heard that snuffing synthetic psilocybin produced a really powerful DMT style experience. Christain Ratsch claimed to witness Nepalese shamans using psilocybe mushrooms in a snuff.
This should be obvious, but I am NOT talking abotu snuffing dry powdered mushrooms. I am referring only to extracts. If you try to snuff dry mushroom powder it will probly expand inside your nose like a sponge, and be very unpleasant with minor effect.
