So there does not seem to be much definitive info on this species, and possibly for good reason>?

last spring, as i mentioned in the grass tek thread, i tried a BLAB tek on a kilo of dried rhizomes, with nothing for the result.

has anyone had success with this plant at all?? maybe young shoots, or harvested in fall, or different tek?

thanks

I am not sure. but I am really keen to try. Theres hectares of this stuff not 5 mins from where I live.

anyone have ANY info on this species

every thread i have come across on this topic ends abruptly, inconclusively.
hmmm

..first hand reports to me: (both in E. Australia)

1 extraction low yeild (0.07%) from rhizomes; 18mg vaped - reasonably pure?+ mild sedative xtra? (subjective effects), seen as yellow oil. Only 1 attempt (due to low yield).
2nd extraction no alkaloids found, suspected misidentification of plant.
3rd attempt by colleague with careful ID approx 0.2%

Probably very seasonally and regionally variable

original findings of dmt etc. (from memory) India.

suggest different genotypes &/or seasonal.

Hi
A while back I did some work with this one, but unfortunately in the interim my life has gone pear shaped and my memory of it ain't so hot. I definately did a STB into xylene and then FASA on about 700g of rhizome, with not result and another extraction I can't really remember on the inflorescence; also nothing. There was one report on edot of some mild activity from a quid of the leaves.
I agree that seasonal influences may be key.
It is certainly not going to be as easy as some have made out it might be.
