I ordered some bark a while back. I thought it was powder, but it was shredded. Try to shred some of it in my little bullet for my smoothies. It’s not doing really good job. Anybody got any ideas or tips on turning it into powder. How fine do I need to get it?

Is anyone familiar with a smoke shop in the Orange County California area that sells ceramic cartridges??

I've tried a few different teks and have been somewhat successful but I'm down to 150 g of bark and really need to dial this in for up coming events. I've tried straight to b ,a to b and something from a video that was a total flop. the end result is only taking me to the first stage of the high can someone anyone put me on to a solid tek that's fail proof I will add that the temperature outside has drastically dropped and where I'm extracting offers no heat what so ever I feel like this has a big effect any info will be greatly appreciated

On my 2nd -5th pull and left two dishes on the counter and the heptane evaporated overnight. There was some crystallization,Deems still ok to use?

Think I need to re-x, deems is still sticky

25 g of powdered Mimosa Hostiles rootbark

how much could I wish to extract?

Or is it better to put subsequent pulls in their own dish?

I've read countless guides, including Minty Love's, and I am still lost. I believe I need an RDA, but the different brands, prices, specifications, etc. keep me going back and forth. I do not want to spend more than I truly need to, but I can afford some luxury. I have experience with altered consciousness and vaping, so something more advanced would not be a problem; I don't want to get lost in the details though. Does anyone have full setups they'd like to share?

Been lurking both subs for a while, and bought multiple carts within Canada b4 realizing I'm better off extracting my own.

I have sourced: -NaOH -vm&p naphtha(which passed the evap test, on multiple glass slides) I'm lucky bc it was expensive AF importing from the US -Brazilian mhrb -distilled water

my 1000ml flask has a PP GL45(THREAD)...The picture shows I'm prepared to make a plug on the bottom of the lid, with the teflon sheet/tape

few questions... what room temp do I need for stirring? what freezer temp do I need for freeze precip? ( my freezer doesnt show temp, should I just crank it?)

I'm leaning towards a lazyman tek (?) or stb(?) ..... ....but I'm also scared of using heat for my tek(I DO HAVE A GOOD CROCKPOT)

(I'm a visual learner, so the shitty utube vid helped me [lazyman tek?], but I also realize it doesn't involve a wash near the end)

Honestly I'm just asking for someone to point me in the right direction at this point

I've done quite a bit of research and also willing to to a bit more. I feel I have everything to just at least start. in eilling to make a couple mistakes just to get the hang of it.

I'm probably overthinking a bunch at this point and have notes like Gale Boetticure, but if this is as easy as baking a cake....I want this to be a tasty AF cake

EDIT:have to try freebase, as I kinda wanted to source 510 empty carts for vaping....but it's an afterthought, as I have to extract first

I'm about to do 10mg out of my Orbit, how long do these trips last?

50g root bark 50g lye(I know too much) 75ml naphtha
So I started making this before making this sub and only had one video to go off of. I followed the tek step by step and now know I used to much lye but that … should be okay? I was planning on letting sit for 24 hours shaking gently every 3 or so hours and pulling then water washing. (Learned that here just now) I’ve done a little research and I think 24 hours may be over kill. Any advice would be appreciated. I know I went in blind and should of found all of this out before hand please be gentle

I have about 250 grams of whole bark MHRB that i purchased in March of 2020. On the package it says August 2022 is the best by date.

It has been stored in a Ziploc Bag, which is inside of another Ziploc bag.

It has been in a dark drawer for the entire time, from temperatures ranging from 66F - 78F.

I am just curious if it is worth it to even try extracting it, or if i am better off just ordering fresh bark? Do you guys think i will still get a decent yield?

Thanks in advance for any help!

Hi Guys

For some reason i cant find any distilled water in my area, only demineralised water. What the hell is the difference and can i use demineralised instead?

Hi guys just a general question but I was wondering what does adding salt do when mixing with naptha and why kinda looking for a a more science answer and not just helps keep the emulsion down like why does it and why does it speed it up?

Im curious what you guys think is the best torch lighter for the Glass Vapor Genie. One with an adjustable flame, that can be pointed downwards, etc. Regardless of price, i want to make sure i get the best one possible.

I tried DMT for the first time yesterday, and had to use a fairly low quality torch lighter. It wouldnt ignite when aimed downwards, and it would randomly go out while taking my hit. I got it to work, but it was tricky lol.

Thanks in advance for any help!

Haven’t done it but doing some research.

I’ve heard this from multiple people but I don’t that just sound stupid to me but then again I’m not super educated on this

Hey y'all. I did a STB Tek extraction on 50g mhrb and yielded about half a g. Want to make enhanced leaf but only have red lotus and some backwoods tobacco. Any help is appreciated.

I had a bad mushroom experience where I felt like something possessed me, my head and arms stared to move on their own.

Since then I’ve tried ayahuasca to try and heal this and remove whatever it is that is causing this. It worked the first time, but now in ceremony I just feel a lot of darkness, pain and suffering. The ayahuasca is showing me a virus like thing that has sort of infected my nervous system.

Anyway, I know many people might not believe me or whatever but unfortunately it’s true and it’s making my life hell daily.

I have smoked dmt once before this happened to me and had a beautiful experience.

I’m wondering if I can smoke it now, in this situation, to see if I can get some answers re what is happening to me. Do you think that’s possible? Or could it make my situation worse?

????

I don't know anything about chemistry and I only have one website that has some teks on there but you know I don't know where to start learning about this shit or what anything means, please someone give me a guide or something, hell a name to a book,

I am a drug addict in recovery, and psychedelics (specifically mushrooms) have always been incredible for my mental health.

Im 3 weeks clean from drugs, and i think im finally ready to start using psychedelics therapeutically again.

My main goal is to have a nice mushroom trip, but the shorter duration of DMT in addition to a small dose sounds like a good way to start entering that realm again. I extracted this DMT 4 years ago, and have just been waiting for the right time.

I dont want to be absolutely blasted off. Just enough to get a feel for it, and maybe have some introspective thoughts to help better myself and aid in my recovery journey.

Ive seen people recommend 5-10mg being a good light dose, but i wanted to double check with you guys first.

I have a glass vapor genie, a steel pad for it, and a torch lighter. Should i just use a regular bic lighter? If you guys have any tips for proper vaporization that would also be very much appreciated!

Thanks in advance for any help! Im so glad to be back to just cannabis and psychedelics, addiction to hard drugs is pure hell.

My ROA is the Yocan Orbit, what's a good beginner dose?

I’m wondering why chacruna plants aren’t more commonly used? Is there some issue with using them in straight to base teks?

Just seems like they would be preferable from a cultivation standpoint as I’m told they can be grown as indoor houseplants. Is this incorrect?

What an absolute load of mighty faff (to loosely quote Minty) this ROA is. So much conflicting information, so much room for error, so many people struggling with issues, wasting time, debating mesh density, chasing hard-to-find RDAs, knockoffs, bad knockoffs, juggling temp control vs. power mode, dealing with frustrating setups, load ups, spice flying everywhere, everything but the DMT experience—it’s overwhelming. Sure, the e-mesh might work well if and when you get it right, and it may be SLIGHTY more spice-effiecient than other ROA's, but it’s utterly charmless, frustrating, and downright annoying. I’ve ditched this trainwreck of a method and gone back to the mighty GVG — just as effective, far more enjoyable, easier to control and just with that X-factor of "analogue" magic. Never again will I be listening to Mintys soothing voice telling me to just "keep trying over the next few weeks". I have no idea why I even went down this road, the Vapor Genie + torch lighter was already working perfectly. Guess it's just that mad scientist in us, wanting to see if there is anything else out there, something even better. No - there is not. Tonight's dark, headache-inducing trip due to burnt spice was the final straw. What went wrong? Fuck knows. Probably the speed of the toke, the length of the mesh piece, the position of the air vents, or the position of the moon. And that's the problem - when this many people are having that many problems in this many different type of ways, emesh vaping does just not deserve to be touted as the best thing since sliced glasspipe.

TLDR: Emesh sucks. The best thing about it is Minty's voice.

I just ordered a yocan orbit, how to I make dmt freebase into wax?
