i can, but i choose not to.

can you?

Yes, but check the MSDS for your particular brand of naphtha, and check to make sure it reads 100% on the MSDS and theres no additives such as rust inhibitors, etc.

Ive been searching and cannot find differences in %dmt....also can i substitute MHRB for ACACIA? In most A/B teks?

yes depending on the species of acacia

Awesome, could you possibly suggest the most compatible species?

Hi, SWIM is looking to do a 1kg acacia confusa extraction using the dmt handbook guide. SWIN had one question about this extraction:

1. In the section where Swim is told to add the sodium hydroxide, it states that one must add 100 grams of sodium hydroxide. Doesn't that amount seem to small for a 1kg extraction?

To find procedure: Type dmt handbook in Google search bar and select the very first one. it is a pdf file.

that is incredibly low.
typically it ranges from a ratio of 3:4 (base:bark) to 1:1

i highly recommend starting with a small test extraction, if this is your first time (it will maximize efficiency anyways)

imo i would find a more recent tek.

i would say start with a 100g extraction

I don't know. You could get litmus paper or a digital ph measurerer or whatever to make sure it's based way up. It probably doesn't need to be based more than 11, which sodium carbonate will acheieve, but lye can go up to almost 14 I think, which is plenty. You could just base until you feel that there is no longer a strong reaction between water and base.

As far as I know, basing it higher does not make it more extractable, but higher ph definitely does not make it less extractable, so there's no problem adding more.

Anyway, 100g does seem small for 1kg. How high the ph goes depends on how much water you have. The more water, the more base you need to up the overall ph.

I'm having a similar issue but I didn't use acetone. With 1lb A. Confusa using more or less Marsofold a/b extraction, I can only get oily crystals that melt at room temperature. I read that this could be solved by turning your pyrex over, allowing the naptha to drain, placing in dessiscant chamber, etc...

Well, the oil is definitely dmt that I'd like to make into changa but a new issue has developed.

Ever since I added warm naptha from a hot water bath, it has turned a reddish color like you're describing. A partial immulsion I believe. I precipitated out some pink DMT from it which I am weary of using without re-crystallizing/cleaning.

I've sucked up this pink naphtha and I'm starting again with fresh. Saving the pink liquid in a jar to see if it settles...

Hey guys.. Still new on the board

I dropped my beloved GVG some weeks ago by accident, and it shattered completely due to the concrete, except for the replacement top.. Of course I couldn't resist buying a new one, so I ordered a new one the next day, but kept the replacement top from the broken one in case I should run out of luck again with the new one..

I noticed a slight difference when I received it, and I definitely also feel a small difference.. Seems like there's a more "focused blast" on my choreboy setup with the new top, allowing for better/smoother vaporization, when comparing the two.. With the old pipe/top I'd usually spend 5-7 seconds before producing a big plume of vapor when vaping 20-25mg crystals in one breath, which only takes me 2-3 seconds now (when getting it right), and maximum 4 seconds.. Really really nice, makes for a great experience when trying to master the GVG - The better, the more fun I guess the excess glass on the old top must absorb/"de-route" the heat somehow (can't figure out what else it might be), because the stone in both tops have equal distance to the bowl in the pipe itself. The stones still have the same size, of course..

My old (and first) GVG was only 2.5 to 3 months old, so I guess it's a pretty fresh upgrade A very minor improvement/change, but still worth sharing.. Sorry if it has already been mentioned

Happy travels

Hi everyone,

I have a question regarding the potency of mimosa hostilis powder. I have heard that many suppliers do not grow their crop properly and the potency of MHRB suffers. Source: http://www.squidoo.com/a...ng-false-mimosa-hostilis

How can i ensure I buy from a reputable retailer? Or is this low potency just the reality of online sales? The two websites im debating between are Removed by moderator, please review the DMT Nexus attitude MHRB isn't illegal where I live so i hope i didnt break any rules.

Do not talk about sourcing your mhrb.

As to actual potency of bark depends on several things. Only way to be sure is to test it and see which you like for yourself.

What percentage can the products potency vary from? Could I end up buying one that has no DMT?

0 - 2%

Hey people,

All I can get is Mrs. Wages Pickling Lime. WILL THIS WORK IN PLACE OF LYE?

If so, what should I do differently? Thanks in advance.

is there any tek using vinegar and lye to extract 1kilo of mimosa? thank you

So SWIM has some syrian rue and b.caapi shredded root , but never use them , and wanted to know what he can do with them...Does the root work like the leafs?

Please read through the forum before asking very simple questions. All that can be answered if you spent just a little bit of time reading/searching the forum.
