Hello Zinger,
Welcome to the Nexus. Thanks for taking the time to write that intro - I enjoyed reading it.
Well, you are on your way, it sounds like. Also sounds like you are ready for the next step, which is extracting your own. For better or worse, you have come to the Nexus at a time of great transition - when the plants and teks are changing and folks are literally growing their own from home.
So, I don't have good extraction advice currently, but as I do to most new folks here, I'd say take a good look around. There are teks in the wiki link which is located in the upper left hand corner of your forum pages. Also, lots of posts and research on newer (to us) DMT plants being used.
Don't be afraid to ask questions, participate, post your thoughts on threads, start new ones, etc. As a New Member you are limited in where you can post, but there are a number of places, including the Welcome Area.
Again, welcome to the Nexus.
