Hi there guys, just some background info on me, i tried dimethyltryptamine yesterday first time ever. At this point I should note I have never done a psychedelic before this.

The leading up to this trip was very long, as most youngsters in the western world I tried Weed when I was young, was too "pussy" to try mushrooms, drank like a fish ( and still do around exam time ) I had the same conception of psychedelics as the average Joe, they were evil.

6 years ago i done my first chemistry course, in level 3 or grade 12 for most of you and i fell in love, since then I have focused on synthetic organic chemistry which i am currently completing the 4th year of an honors degree in. What is organic chemistry if it is not drug chemsitry I mean seriously for all you polymer chemists im sorry, but drugs are the bread and butter of organic chemistry theres no escaping it.

My massive drive to learn synthetic methodology and widen my spectra of organic technique eventually brought me to read Tihkal and Pihkal, the first time i read it, I skipped the first halves, just read the synthesis of the molecules, skipped the experiences aswell. Months later i read the whole book, changed my life.

I had my first pyscadelic experience yesterday, DMT extracted from home grown phlaris aquatica. And a little bit off topic, I have an outrageously complex grow-op of peyote in my room. heat lights grow lights mist-ers the whole nine yards.

I digress.

The one thing i lack is a good set of scales, knowing that I cant eyeball the difference between 20 and 100 milligrams i went on the conservative side, and when i say conservative i mean i made sure i had at least 60 ( conservative with the perspective of not getting blasted away being the negative.)

Im very fucking sorry its taken me this long to get the the important part, i talk like this IRL too.

I was blasted away, and though i have nothing to base it on i say with some certainty that I was a member of the universes superhighway for about 10 minutes i lived in a geometrical universe and while I did not converse nor meet with an of the so called Entities i could feel thier presence, and as much as it conflicts with my literal scientific mindset, i feel that next time i do it they will get more comfortable with me, maybe i was so fucking awkward they were scared

Anyway, seriously wow, i see what all the hype is about, interestingly enough, I always feared doing any sort of mind altering substance because i was so afraid of the while gateway drug thing they teach you in school, however after dmt i have even less of a drive to try other things, but to each his own.




ps. i am shamed to say the reason I chose DMT for my first experience is because people called it spice, and I am a major dune fan. poor reason to do it, they say the road to hell is paved with good intentions. For me the road to hyperspace was paved with bad intentions.

Thank you, I love forward to being a member of this site, and maybe next time I ramble on for this long it will be not so self centered. Thanks for listening

Phalaris aquatica, eh? I overheard someone at a party talking about using that before he discovered MHRB. Folks around here would probably be interested in the details of how you went about extracting from it.

excellent - a chemist in the house. You are very welcome here, friend. I second the call for some details of your extraction tek - you sound like you know what you're doing! Glad to hear you had such a positive introduction to hyperspace; and re Dune, we are all called at precisely the frequency we are most attuned to, imo

Yea I hear MHRB is the way to go, but besides growing it inside there is really no other way to get my hands on it, embarressingly, after tuition is payed, well food comes before plants haha if you get my drift

I used a classic old A/B extraction, I done it on a large scale because im too busy lately to do several pulls, i started large so 2 pulls would give desired amount. Had fumaric acid lying around already from other things, basically the tek i performed is almost identical to BLAB tek

It should be noted that pharlis Aquatica contains a significant amount of 2-(5-methoxy-1H-indol-3-yl)-N,N-dimethylethanamine or 5-MeO-DMT and a much smaller amount of 3-(2-dimethylaminoethyl)-1H-indol-5-ol or Bufotenin

Due to the polarity of the hydroxyl group on Bufotenin its probably not pulled any appreciable amount, but the 5-MeO-DMT probably is

long story short, worst case scenario, per 12 grams of product there is 10 grams of DMT and there is 2 grams of of the 5-MeO-DMT.

This is all speculation and i welcome anyone to correct me, but i suspect this is the case

So My first experience was probably tainted, I have no Idea really how pure my product was, white crystals dont always mean 1 compound unfortunatly




copy pasted from wiki : "A raw, dried plant Phalaris aquatica contains approximately 0.1% DMT, 0.022% 5-MeO-DMT, and 0.005% bufotenin." Idk about where you guys live, but where i come from this shit is everywhere, it grows in my backyard, in the woods behind my house, everywhere.

Welcome to the Nexus!

Glad to hear you enjoyed your experience! Wouldn't complain about "tainting" so much, as 5-MeO has it's own very entheogenic expression. It does have a much lower active dosage though, so I look forward to hearing comparisons after you get used to this spice extraction and then get the chance to try just n,n.


Be well.

Welcome to the Nexus! Synthetic Organic Chemistry must be a really interesting subject to study. I find the simple extractions i preform really fun and exciting. I can only imagine that extracting compounds from other plants must be just as rewarding. Great to hear you had a good experience

welcome to the Nexus! Hope to see more from you around the forums now

'i say with some certainty that I was a member of the universes superhighway for about 10 minutes i lived in a geometrical universe ' that strikes a chord with me..
hi fellow Nexian....welcome!
