So swim got finished scraping his dish and ended up with 450 mg from Rons tek, he would really appreciate if someone can let him know how it looks.

Regardless, 235mg of it disappeared.... swim will keep this updated if it pops up

That looks good, as long as SWIY didn't use heat to evap. the vinegar it should be okay.

Looks yummy

Thanks guys, no heat was used, the dish was left by a fan all night...

0 hrs: 235mg disappeard

2 hrs: Sort of dizzy, wierd head space feeling, but not strong. From 20 grams of powder eaten, of the same batch, swim thinks he felt more by this time. But its still early?, so he's hoping.

2:50 : took another 110mg, swims feeling more in his head. From eating cactus he had waves of pleasure, (not amazing but nice), and he isnt getting any of those. Just sort of an upset stomach and this dizzy sort of spacey feeling.

Thx for sharing your results.

Pretty crystals but they look a bit brownish..
Did you clean with cold MEK?

That brown is what had swim nervous, but didnt have any mek and was eager. So in all 345mg was consumed but not much was felt, definately stronger results eating just 20g of wet cactus

Some people are total hardheads when it comes to mescaline or cactus. 450mg of total cactus alkaloids (a.k.a. one does not know how much mescaline is in there) would totally be pfff.... for SWIM.

Euphoria and "entheogenic bliss" and the sort with cactus is ok, usually maybe even placebo-ish, but for SWIM's taste if it doesn't grab you from the balls it ain't really worth it.

By the way, what is SWIY's yield? 450 out of how much cactus?

Hey lonewolf,

I have also found acetate extracts a bit 'meh'. I haven't tried pure Mescaline hcl which is supposed to be very pleasant, so can't comment on that...but acetate extracts lack a certain special something which the whole cactus retains (for me anyway).

I would encourage you to conisder the updated resin tek. I have only tried a low dose of this resin and I was very impressed. Personally, I have found this tek to produce a much more superior product, and still in an easy to consume extract, and it is really very simple and 'au natural'...the resin tek has changed my relationship with cactus, making it much more accessible..roll on Spring!

What is the the updated resin tek?? do you have a link?

Cheers,
V

On the subject of acetate effects, I did an extract from 100g of San Pedro and tried 110mg to see what a low dose was like as I've not experienced mescaline before.

I bombed the acetate and then drank a cup of coffee. After 30 minutes or so I started to feel the effects. Between this time and about 1.5 hours I was convinced I was going to 'come up' on it and that would stop me feeling nauseous and wired. It found like I'd taken a lot of Pro Plus and overdosed on caffeine.

Unfortunately, these effects lasted about 4 hours. I've decided that this maybe because the dose was too low and if I increased the dosage I would indeed come up and have a much more pleasant experience.

Therefore I'm thinking of 275 - 300mg to avoid the under dose. However reading the above seems to suggest I may need substantially more than this.

SWIM's results with Ron's tek were very similar to yours, both in terms of the appearnace of the products & their effects (or lack thereof).

SWIM had to take about 700 mg of his resin extract to feel an effect. He recommends you try a different tek, and to try washing with a mixture of 95% d-limonene, 5% anhydrous (or 99% anhydrous) IPA if you can't get food-grade (or equivalent) MEK/acetone

The equipment swim used was all wrong, so that was from one pull of 100g of powder. The extraction never got finished though,...
