Here's an easy question for everyone: How much volume does a typical gram of DMT occupy?
I need to order some kind of container to store my spice once I extract it, but I realized I have no actual idea how big of a container I need. I have a reasonable idea of what yield I can expect, but I don't know how much space a given mass of spice takes up. Help?

Dmt is slightly more dense than water, if it's melted it'll occupy 1.1 ml per gram. In its solid crystalline form it's more fluffy and i imagine it'll occupy more volume, i don't think it'll be more than 2 mls per gram "Is this the end of our adventure? Nothing has an end. We came in search of the secret of immortality, to be like gods, and here we are... mortals, more human than ever. If we have not obtained immortality, at least we have obtained reality. We began in a fairytale and we came to life! But is this life reality? We are images, dreams, photographs. We must not stay here! Prisoners! We shall break the illusion. This is Maya. Goodbye to the holy mountain. Real life awaits us." ~ Alejandro Jodorowsky

Get a large RYOT safe case. This way you can store a Glass Vapor Genie, several grams spice, shrooms, whatever, it locks, can even double duty as methadone carryout container. It is a nice box and keeps my alkaloids and paraphernalia stored and safe. olympus mon wrote:You need to hit it with intention to get where you want to be!

Hmm, so about 2cc per gram (plus a little extra space) is a reasonable estimate?
@Tony6Strings That looks like a great piece of kit, but maybe a little overkill for my purposes. 😉

Shameless plug for a Nexian business. Oneiros Glass has a variety of wonderful embossed molecule jars designed for this very purpose. I'm not sure if they are currently active, so it might be a good idea to fire off an email and check before making a purchase.

I like using those little bottles for essential oils as well as the containers for THC concentrates to hold my precious (Golem voice) Spice.

the + or - tolerances for the volume of a g of any particular crystalline powder is pretty negligible in reference to the size of container required to hold it. something in your makeup bag is going to be just right. (sorry, i cant help myself regarding the following joke) and if you really find yourself needing an additional level of concealment, you'll probably find that in your underwear drawer... ) back to reality, im gonna assume your home is a rather safe place, in which case im sure there is a box on a shelf somewhere that has to be opened to observe its contents, that will suffice perfectly. If you're trying to hide it from a significant other, the issue to address isnt the hiding of it, but the need to hide it and the conditions set forth in the agreement to cohabitate. finally, the issue of practical significance, leaving the safety of your abode and traveling in a vehicle with it.. A: if you drive a unregistered beater with no taillights, just dont do it. B: if you look and carry yourself respectably and sober. just dont leave it in plain sight or with your vehicle documents. c :e:f:g:h:i:j:k:etc.: make enhanced leaf or changa, carry it in a bag with a weed pipe and call it cannabis. Everything i say is fictional, I just wanna be cool and fit in.

If you're anything like me one jar is never going to be enough. In a bid to future proof myself I bought 12 X 30g amber makeup jars years ago. They have a nice wide mouth and hold 5g of changa or 20g of spice comfortably. It's been a pretty good solution to a long term question. A label maker really helps too. The nearest we ever come to knowing truth is when we are witness to paradox.

This thread has persistently reminded me of the Fear and Loathing quote: “There is a way of manipulating matter and energy so as to produce what modern scientists call 'a field of force'. The field acts on the observer and puts him in a privileged position vis-à-vis the universe. From this position he has access to the realities which are ordinarily hidden from us by time and space, matter and energy. This is what we call the Great Work." ― Jacques Bergier, quoting Fulcanelli

I've got a pretty awesome herb and herbacious material collection as well. Boxes of the stuff. What caught up with me is I have spent a lot of time doing extractions and creating smoking mixes as a hobby rather than a means to an end. There's only so much one can consume before it starts to interfere with the "real" world and then suddenly you've got several lifetimes supply and DMTrees and bushes growing all over your property and you maybe wonder if your obsessive nature has sunk it's teeth into this a bit much. The nearest we ever come to knowing truth is when we are witness to paradox.

Ha! That's great! Would not say it's [too muchness] a bad thing? Maybe too much of a good thing? Lol I have yet to have the space to plant some of these plants myself, but my personal obsession ended me with a tattoo of the molecule on my shoulder blade One love What if the "truth" is: the "truth" is indescernible/unknowable/nonexistent?

I use an old tin of mints with a paper envelope inside, kept in the fridge. The bonus of this setup is that you can decorate the envelope I don't want comfort. I want God, I want poetry, I want real danger, I want freedom, I want goodness. I want a clever signature.

Maybe take the mL size of container and divide by 3 or so and that's about how many grams it will hold. eg. 15ml = 5g, 100 = 33ish g Here it is standing: atoms with consciousness; matter with curiosity.

To bring this thread back around to my original question, I've ascertained that 250mg of sparkly white DMT, tapped down but not packed at all, takes up almost exactly 2.5ml.This is both fascinating and slightly unsettling: if my MHRB is quality and I achieve optimal yields, the container I ordered is not going to be anywhere near big enough. Eep!

That's 5x my prediction haha, sorry "Is this the end of our adventure? Nothing has an end.

Here is pics of jars I use, they originally contain cannabis oil from store. I clean them with alcohol before using for spice.
