I just saw this news clip from a dmt “lab” bust. The reporter said the method of “cooking” dmt was quite similar to making meth. I’ve never used, let alone make meth, but I gotta assume that is a big ol load of dookie. I feel if meth were as easy to make as a dmt extraction, there would be a lot more people cooking meth. Any thoughts. Is this just Donald’s fake news at it again?

blind leading the blind. they gotta stick to a fearmongering narrative based on misunderstanding, because that's what pays (prohibitionist industries). anyone with half a brain, who went to college, knows an extraction and synthesis (reductive amination/addition rxn) are not the same.

Lab? It was most probably barely even a chemistry set.




“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."

It was a garage with 5 gal buckets, gallon jugs of solvents. It looked like a large scale extraction. Definitely not synthesizing it. Just a couple guys not acting very nexus-y.

I always advise against large-scale experiments, as it just begs for the wrong kind of attention.

People do usually get busted for a reason. At least one of two reasons, typically - greed and/or stupidity.

Quite. And accidents with large amounts of flammable solvents will be exponentially worse than small ones, as well.

Yeah I saw the same article. Total BS. It's hard to understand how they can get it so wrong, to the point where I suspect they're doing so in order to make the piece more sensational.

All the reports I've read of busts lead me to believe they're quoting a gram of DMT for each gram of bark that is seized when calculating 'the street value.'
