Thanks for your detailed reply acacian.

I plan to x chacruna so its either white shiny crystals of DMT or contamination with oxide. I plan to use xylene in response to the discussion that shellite is not pulling what it used to.  Leaves take a long time to grow so I don't want to be throwing away good product.  i also plan to add around 30g of salt to the basified aquas to increase yields.  i tend to use the lextek as a guide.

I do hope to one day x acacia.  I tried acacia changa once and was well impressed.  I got some lingering side effects though.  I think it was from the d limonene contamination as the dmt was just salted out of d limo and evaped straight onto the leaf base.  I reckon if I ever try d limo I will look into how to ensure that all the contaminates are removed so I don't react to it.  Might be worth rebasifying then pulling with shellite but then the natural product element of the tek is gone.  May as well just use xylene then I guess.

Thanks for all your help folks.
