T+00:00 - I place 10 mg of the slightly yellow powder into my test tube vaporizer. Using a flame as the heat source I heat it up, the powder melts and begins to boil. I inhale as much as I can. I wasn’t able to get the whole hit in one shot. It took 3 inhalations.

T+00:02 - I felt a tiny bit of tingling in the back of the head. Nothing else was felt.

T+00:03 – the visual effects were just starting. They quickly became very strong. Everything looked swirly. I could see swirly patterns all over my hands.

T+00:05 – the effects are now very strong. I’m seeing shapes forming all over the walls. I blink my eyes for a second. This causes multi-colored patterns to appear all over the room for a few seconds. I blink my eyes again, the same happens. I had not noticed this effect before. It was as if reality was being repainted each time I blink my eyes. I saw it start with reds and blues, and then the yellows would fill in. This would happen in about 1 second and then the whole room was back again.

T+00:08 – I’m hearing faint voices. It’s almost as if I’m hearing thoughts from another dimension.

T+00:10 – I close my eyes. Lots of geometric shapes are seen spinning and flying by, rapidly shifting, with an electric pulsating quality to them. These are the typical visual effects at this dose. I have no true visions, just a lot of fantastic rapidly transforming geometric shapes are seen this time.

T+00:15 – It’s already peaked. I’m feeling so relaxed. I head downstairs to go watch TV. I make some strong chocolate milk, this enhances the rest of the trip brining on lots of euphoria and pleasant bodily tingling sensations.

T+01:00 – With the effects still very noticeable, I go back upstairs and go to sleep.

W.O.W. dude! just plain WOW! now SWIM doesn't have to go through getting MEK and stuff like that. Will this also work with acetone pulled impure bufotenine extract? Or does one really need to use DCM for pulling the basic extract?

can toluene be used instead of xylene? has anyone tried this? if not.. SWIM had some bottles labeled wrong and got them mixed up. so by accident SWIM is now using toluene instead of xylene. he will tell if it works or not. has anyone else tested yet?

update: SWIM just put the dark impure extract into a beaker and filled it with 200ml of toluene. He heated the beaker until the toluene was in motion. He heated it for about 5 minutes and stirred while heating. The toluene turned a clear yellow color. It seems as if some of the amber stuff also gets dissolved in the toluene. He is now letting it cool to see if something will fall out. Maybe the amber stuff will be left behind in the toluene when cooling.

A question just popped in someone's mind:

Could the amber/brown/whatever crap that are contaminating bufotenine from Vilca seeds be coming from the seed husks?

If yes, the seeds can be peeled off prior to extraction. It can be a pain in the arse but definitely less of a pain if it helps to get a purer product.

Has anyone tried peeled versus non-peeled seeds?

Toasting (or soaking in water) can make peeling an easier task

That’s a good question. SWIM always grinds all of it, husks and all. It’s a lot of trouble to remove the husks.



SWIM found that soaking in a little water overnight works very well. The husks slide right off. But it's a pain to de-husk 100 grams of seeds for each extraction process.

I would really like to know exactly what this toxin is. Some seeds contain tons of it.

So since most of the impurities are left behind after the xylene phase, could one potentially just use FASA to render a nearly pure salt and then use simple dry techniques to end up with freebase crystals by acetone evaporation?

Though since the crystals formed in the xylene are apparently quite nice all on their own, maybe just waiting for the xylene to clear up, decanting, and then performing FASA crystallization within the xylene would be appropriate; to ensure a full retrieval of product.?

Is it difficult to dry the crystals of xylene

could you do this xylene trick..and then recrystallize in MEK:heptane?!?

when you tried to crystallize in acetone..how did you do it? did you just let it evaporate down?
