Ha Ha I know. Like I said I couldnt put a name to the taste but it is a distinctive taste. To tell you the truth I have never tasted mothballs but am trying to reassure our friend that it does have a taste similar to what he is describing and he is not going to suffer from shellite inhalation. To me it smells like burning plastic but tastes different.

ok.... hehe ...Ive never sucked a mothball either... The problem though is that swiks mate studies organic chemistry and swears that the odour is definately napthaline or similar. swiks only experience with dmt is with the product he has produced himself....swiks friend also has never tried dmt except for the stuff that swik produced.... i take the information from you guys as the most reliable source however i follow up all info with quick searches and bouncing it off like minded peeps.... so... i am assuming from the info gathered here that im on the right track though my taste/smell naming may need addressing.... i purchased my diggers naoh from 'bunnings' however i noticed that diggers is a west oz product and may be replaced by a local product in your area.. i also did a quick saerch and noticed that 'home hardware' stocks most diggers products..

Cool, thanks. I will check them out. I would not worry about it. If its working and you arent getting any side effects and the shellite you are using evaps clean there is not much to worry about. People who work with shellite breath that shit in everyday. Even if there is a tiny bit which I doubt you are still better off than them.

im having another go at an extraction very soon. ive gathered all my products. now i just need to figure out whether ill take the 3 hours drive to gather obtusifolia bark or use a hell of alot of maidenii bark which is a 5 minute walk away

Hi all. I'm enjoying this thread, please activate.

I have seen ACACIA ELATA in melbourne, for Iod. Iod has all the products listed in the above thread.

I'od may have has 5 meo brown wax, from 150g bark of A. Elata.

He asked me when using Xylene how he can increase his tiny yields.

I know acacia is a bitch. I'od wont listen at times.
Who has had any goodness from this beautiful tree.

I'od says shelite, diggers f n shitlite

We are looking forward to a road trip to mt buffalo.

Any advice is welcome

Thank you in advance

Before you go please be aware of how endangered and rare the mt buffalo wattle is.
You can buy one and grow it yourself with the satisfaction of knowing you aren't contributing to the destruction of a rare beauty.
Here is a reputable supplier - http://herbalistics.com....hylla-mt-buffalo-wattle/

To put it more bluntly - don't touch wild phlebophylla. Ever.

To reiterate - don't touch wild phlebophylla.....ever!

Be respectful and responsible when you seek out native species. Do some more research - Victoria offers many viable and sustainable alkaloid rich species.


Once again.
Do not touch wild phlebophylla lest you reap the consequences of your actions.

Imagine if you got caught by the ranger? 'WHY R U CUTTING DOWN THIS TREE?" -> "err firewood officer" -> *phones police*-> *court sentence*

Worst nightmare, pretty sure they would give you a whopper of a fine for that.

Moth balls?....

How'd you get their tiny legs apart...

No no no bloody way I'm in search of courtii, colei, simplicifolia. I promise, I,ve never seen
A oxycedrus, maidenii, obustuslfoli ever in the wild. I love all trees in australia and these beautiful acacia trees are out standing. I know the information on floribunda and maidenii is'nt accurate.

Iod has red ish yellow goo from A. elata. WOW whoo!
The only wild bark Iod has had success with, using A\B, xylene.

Iod need's help with goo tek using Iso alc. Or Iod wants to use acetone but I know how harsh that is mixed with gunja
Please help
Help Iod and the red ish yellow goo.

He has disolved some small amount of goo in shelite. Shelite goes milky and evaporates. huh?
Freeze precip - nothing!

Iod is really after xtals.
But I think Iod does not fully understand the acacian path of the matrix

Why the matrix

If I have upset anybloody1 I"m definitely not after A phlebophylla. I promise. We will go to s-r-ss gap anyhow, Mt buffalo is far away I here because of the height above sea level and granet stone, A phllebophylla loves that enviroment and the other Acacia that grow there are very very active, but don't quote me on this.

What Melbourne Acacia do yous believe in ? [Please don't say floribunda],
Acacian is right when he says A. floribunda is a blanket term for many species of acacia.

Peace

please try avoid stripping bark from the acacias it does them no good and can often kill them.. maidenii will have good amounts (often better than bark in maidenii's case) in the phyllodes if your strain is good as will basically any other active acacia. twigs/branches/stems will have basically the same yield as the trunk and will also do less damage - in fact a careful and considered pruning can be healthy

obtusifolia in particular has already taken a beating from unethical/uninformed method of harvest. please show them the respect they deserve..

Agreed. If people are going to go there anyways though I will add that the fallen leave's of this species work very well and are in abundance on the roadsides.. theres no excuse for taking living material from phlebs and no advantage compared to fallen material either..

I will respect all acacias like u respect the phelbop

thank u for your statement.
I am aware of the damage done.
I am going over the acacia extraction work space again.
thank u for this thread. Iod hopes to add to it soon.

I am going to central coast [nsw] first for xmas with family.
I'od tells me a. maidenii will grow in wet sclerophyll forest of coastal nsw.
