These are two older reports of my experiences with LSA including how I prepped the seeds. Someone was interested in these and I told them I'd post them. I hope they prove helpful in some manner. Peace

#1

2/11/12

1. 4 seeds - (Indian variety of Hawaiian Baby Woodrose seeds)
2. small glass, lightproof bottle (I used a 2 oz glass bottle with a screw on cap and wrapped it up to the neck with aluminum foil)
3. lime juice
4. essential peppermint oil
5. distilled water (incase you want to rinse the little bottle and dump it in the OJ to make sure you got all seed material)

1) grind seeds in coffee grinder as powdery as possibly (easier with more seeds)
2) mix with 3 tablespoons of lime juice and 2-3 drops of essential peppermint oil in lightproof bottle, shake vigorously every 5-10 minutes for 40 minutes - all the while keeping the bottle in the fridge. (You can take it out to shake it, lol.)
3) Dump into 4-6oz glass of OJ, stir quick, and drink down - seed mush and all!

⁃ 2 subjects, myself, 42 yo male and my woman, 52 yo - same dose for both people
⁃ male's psychedelic experience: LOTS of LSD and mushrooms in the late 80's and early 90's - mushrooms occasionally over the years, recently tried some 5-meo-DALT (weak tryptamine)
⁃ female's previous psychedelic experience: took LSD once in the mid 70's, has tried some less heavy amounts of shrooms and 5-meo-DALT
⁃ male's dose was steeped for 40 minutes - female's dose was steeped in fridge for 25 minutes
⁃ I should mention, male ate very little today. A couple cups of coffee and a bowl of thai noodles with lemongrass/chili broth.

• 10:30am ate one 100mg niacin and one ginko biloba extract capsule (natural vasodialators) - hoping to get a jump on this vasoconstriction I've head about.
• 2:00pm woman takes 1 100 mg niacin
• 3:45pm T minus ZERO - drank it all down and ate the small amount of seed matter left in the bottom with a spoon
• somewhere around this time, the woman ate a bowl of marinara pasta and a small slice of garlic bread
• 3:53pm 2 nice bong hits (all bong hits are 100% weed)
• 4:03pm I don't know if I'm excited or what but I think I may already feel something - may be the weed
• 4:19pm feelin' pretty smiley - bong hit
• 4:37pm whipped up some spicy low-sodium mustard just to prove I could do it
• 4:48pm feelin pretty fuckin' groovy but I wouldn't say "tripping" quite yet
• who's your friend? turmeric is your friend.
• 4:58pm the familiar "acid sigh"
• 5:02pm kinda weird, like a trip coming on but I feel like I could take a nap.
• 5:19pm a few small slices of smoked gouda... mmm - woman sees me all smiley and wants to try it with me now - whips up some seed-concoction for the woman
• 5:25pm 4 bong hits
• 5:43pm give the woman her dose
• 5:45pm woman does 2 bong hits
• 6:00pm real good precursor trip buzz rolling - almost shroomy - very edge or tripping - going to smoke another 4 bong hits with the lady
• 6:15pm ate 3 slices of shit on a shingle, the woman had 1
• 6:04pm woman just feels weedy
• 6:58pm woman feels mostly weedy but a little something
• 8:00 - 8:30pm woman gets stomach cramps
• 10:00pm lay down, watch some Monte Python, woman still has stomach cramps - we both smoke a bunch of weed
• 11:00pm asleep

NOTES:
* male experienced no nausea or apparent crazy over vasoconstriction - a very slight tinge of that "strychnyney" feeling (for lack of a better way to describe it - but negligible
* woman wakes up next day with tender stomach but not horrible
* thinking 4 seeds for really pleasant (sub-trip) experience, 6 seeds for mild trip - 8 seeds for good trip - 10 seeds for way good trip
* almost all music during the experience was the Grateful Dead or Pink Floyd
* interested in hearing more about this peppermint oil/LSH connection I've read about in a few places

PERSONAL THOUGHTS:
WOW! This is the first time I've tried HBWS and what a delight! I'll be doing this A LOT. While 4 seeds didn't really make for a "trip", I didn't really set out to go too far. I wanted to get an overall general impression of this seed's powers and now I have it.

Aside from the woman's stomach cramps, we felt no ill-effects. Trying to figure out whether having food on her stomach when dosing was the cause of the cramps, maybe the seed material, maybe the active ingredients, having some vasoconstriction properties, just fuck up some stomachs no matter how the seeds are prepared.

At some point I'm going to try an extraction and NOT eat the seed mush. I'd like to see what kind of potency is lost, if any.

Next week trying 6 seeds a piece, and the woman will start with an empty/nearly empty stomach.

My description: very LSD-like as it comes on, less intense, but very similar.mWill need to up the dose to really know more.

2/18/12

1. 6 seeds (ea) - (Indian variety of Hawaiian Baby Woodrose seeds) (.09 avg seed wgt - used .55g seed powder - see seed preparation note below)
2. small glass, lightproof bottle (I used a 2 oz glass bottle with a screw on cap and wrapped it up to the neck with aluminum foil)
3. lime juice
4. distilled water (incase you want to rinse the little bottle and dump it in the OJ to make sure you got all seed material)

SEED PREPARATION NOTE: In seeking to standardize the dose somewhat, I used a little different seed preparation plan this time.

1) I weighed 13 seeds and then calculated average weight, which was 90mg.
2) I then multiplied this by 6 since we wanted to try 6 seeds each this time.
3) I ground up about 50 seeds in the coffee grinder
4) I then weighed out 540mg (6 x 90mg/seed) of seed powder for each of us.

1) grind seeds in coffee grinder as powdery as possibly (easier with more seeds)
2) mix with 3 tablespoons of lime juice and 2-3 drops of essential peppermint oil in lightproof bottle, shake vigorously every 5-10 minutes for 40 minutes - all the while keeping the bottle in the fridge. (You can take it out to shake it, lol.)
3) Dump into 4-6oz glass of OJ, stir quick, and drink down - seed mush and all!

⁃ 2 subjects, myself, 42 yo male and my woman, 52 yo - same dose for both people
⁃ male's psychedelic experience: LOTS of LSD and mushrooms in the late 80's and early 90's - mushrooms occasionally over the years, recently tried some 5-meo-DALT (weak tryptamine)
⁃ female's previous psychedelic experience: took LSD once in the mid 70's, has tried some less heavy amounts of shrooms and 5-meo-DALT - LSA last week
⁃ both doses were steeped for 50 minutes
⁃ I should mention, we ate very little today. A couple cups of coffee and a bowl of thai noodles with ginger broth.

• 10:30am ate one 100mg niacin and one ginko biloba extract capsule (natural vasodialators) - hoping to get a jump on this vasoconstriction I've head about.
• 1:00pm both subjects drink the potion to start the journey
• 1:15pm bong hits
• 1:19pm both subjects already feeling slight effects - female feeling a very slight stomach cramp
• 1:44pm female says stomach is still a little funny but getting better - deinitely not getting worse
• 4:30pm peak
• new band name - The Steaming Entrees
• 6:00pm super strong histamine thing - very stuffy nose, watery eyes - like super hay fever - female took some benedryl - male did not
• 6:30pm peak ends for male
• 9:30pm still tripping well
• 10:30pm - 1:00am somewhere in here tripping stopped - was asleep

NOTES:
* neither subject felt any serious or lasting stomach discomfort
* 6 seeds, for us, was a VERY good trip

PERSONAL THOUGHTS:
WOW! This is the second time I've tried HBWS and HOLY SHIT! 6 Seeds was enough for me. We had a very good time but were unable to do much of anything. The introspection was wonderful. This was very cathartic - almost an emotional cleansing for lack of a better description

Very happy that it seems diet controls stomach issues - at least for us.

My description: very LSD-like with a mushroom intensity (although a bit less). Didn't think it would last 8 hours, but wow, it did.
