Greetings, I'm new to the forum and in a very specific predicament
SWIM had a small stash of 20x salvia and some dmt. However, it somehow got moisture in and now it's full of this weird mold. And SWIM sure as hell won't smoke mold.
Any ideas on what's the safest and most effective way of getting it out/killing it? SWIM has no way of getting any salvia nor dmt for a while, and it'd be very sad to let this go to waste.
 
I've never heard of salvia extract molding, but I think the safest thing to do is throw it out. I know that's not what you wanna hear considering your supply issues, but it might already be wasted. Perhaps post a picture of the mold, and see if anyone comes up with anything, but I think you're gonna end up having to throw it away. If I had to take a guess, I would think perhaps isopropyl alcohol might be effective in killing some mold.
 
You can sterilise the salvia and you can (re-) extract the dmt and both will kill the mold and get rid of the mold mass. But neither will guarantee getting rid of any mycotoxins that can taint the end product.

Safest route is to throw it away and consider it a lesson learned!
 
Im sorry to tell you this, but I would chuck it away. Throwing away everything that has mold on it, it's one of the golden rules of every mushroom grower. Some molds are highly poisonous! I wouldnt try to clean or re-extract the alkaloids in any way, some nasty stuff could end up in the end product.
 
I was afraid this would be the answer, but it's for the best. Swim will just have to get more creative in getting more.
There was about 400mg of 20x salvia and about 150 mg changa. Swim's been saving the salvia for almost two years since it became illegal here, and changa was a wonder of synchronicity, so it's hard to do what must be done.
Thanks everyone, I think I'll stick around for a while ;)

This...salvia is hard to find and expensive where i live,but still wouldn't risk my health for it...
