This week I am planning a trip with San Pedro using gel-capped powdered flesh.

I have tried the powder at doses of 10g and 30g. At 10 grams, nothing but maybe a mild body high was felt. At 30g, however, a solid trip ensued, complete with OEV's.

I plan on going swimming on the day of the trip, so I do not want to be to blasted to be swim safely. I will take 20g, which will hopefully put exactly between my other two experiences. I am slightly concerned that it will end up not being worth it though, and I wont feel anything. So my next thought is, admixture:

I could add these things in to potentiate the trip:

1 or 2 grams of Syrian Rue
any amount of caffeine
cannabis edibles.

More specifically, it will be a day spent at a waterpark. I am used to tripping, and don't mind being around and about in public. I am also a strong swimmer, and will have a sober best friend with me, who is a life guard at a local pool.

My question is: Do I need the admixture/s? If so, what should I take and how much, while minimizing the negative effects of the trip (such as stomach discomfort)?

ive done this many times
get the cannabis edibles, the other admixtures wont be as awesome. the cannabis will push you much further than just the pedro.

also the gel cap method blows. roll your powdered flesh into globs with a bit of water and swallow em with a chaser.

or make an ethanol resin/tincture by heated soaks and evaporation to your desired quantity. gel cap flesh is a truly inferior method.

have a blast!

My suggestion would be to be careful with the rue cactus combo... I know that Peruvian torch is good with MAOI. I have heard some people say regular San Pedro is contradictory with MAOI, possibly because of the tyramine content.

Another thing to note is that is you take the rue before or at the same time as the cactus you may be in for one really intense purge. If i were you I would only take one gram of rue. Honestly you would be better of with caapi for something like this IMO


Please take great care when tripping around water..

these are both valuable concepts. if you are going to take the rue take it at t + 3 hours so ensure the cacti is digested enough and it will set you up so the rue will kick in at the cactis climax

No worries, great care will be taken. I understand the risks and the proper safeguards will be put in place to ensure maximum safety.

As far as the purging goes, I did not purge on 30g of capped pedro, and I do not purge on 3g of capped rue, so I do not expect a purge here. I think I will follow mew's advice, and take 1g of rue T+3.

i still recommend using cannabis edible more, but 1 g of rue wont be too much, id probably keep another g on deck incase after an hour youre not quite feeling it.

also capped cactus messes with absorption and isnt the easiest method of ingestion. as far as purging goes, you never know when youre combining things for the first time. regardless, you may consider having a baggy in your swim suit to purge into if it comes on too strong, at that point it will be more discrete. vomit/bodily fluids in a pool setting warrants the pool be shut down and chemically cleaned as well as removal of physical particles... you will cause alot of attention if you arent careful and purge openly. which in your tripping state, wont be the greatest thing youve done.

i also recommend having some ginger in some form to settle your stomach, perhaps mix it into the syrian rue dose. atleast it will cut down on your potential nausea
