Ha!
My ploy to get you to read this by the subject title has worked!

I have been doing illicit substances for the past 30 years. Pretty much as long as it didn't require a needle is what I did. Let your imagination run and I would answer yes to 80% of the questions about it. I have taken several "vacations" from those things for about 10 years total interspersed in there just because it didn't seem as important to me as other things.

As far things I've done (extracts and grows), they are pretty limited to growing mushrooms via PF Tek and larger substrate grows. I actually had more fun doing the process and growing them than taking them. I have also done Q21Q21's fluffy white Tek and found it to be both fun and productive. It also resulted in a more pure and easy product than anything that I have purchased. I will post a DETAILED run of the specifics that I followed as well as the outcomes as soon as I have the permission to post there. Through happenstance I have located a San Pablo cactus growing in my back yard (over 8' tall). I'm pretty sure it won't be there by the time I leave my rental. :-D

I have really enjoyed learning about the different Teks and the processes and the "Why's" behind each of them. The Teks are excellent in not only instructing what to do, but why they work like they do. There hasn't been a thing on the Nexus that I haven't found the answer to by searching. It's never been hard, just taken a bit of time. All of this has been enjoyable as much as the final product.

Here is some of my glassware, plants, final products and accessories. Gathering everything necessary for crafting things is fun for me as well and I take pride in doing something well, properly and having the right equipment and base products is required for a quality end product.

Thank you to all you for creating this, and all of your efforts. It takes love and passion to pull these off and I hope to be able to contribute as much as possible to become proficient in the different processes here, and then continue to pass it on and assist others.

Sincerely,
ZenPuppy

One piece of advice that will serve you well here: Drop the silly and antiquated "SWIM": it offers you no protection whatsoever and makes reading posts laced with SWIM's a bit annoying, no offense.

Regardless, welcome aboard, have fun and stay safe.

Thank you,
I read that, but didn't make that change. SWIMs removed and I appreciate the direction.

You done LSZ haha

My friend told me about some guy online who knows everything concerning DMT, from extractions to machines and so on. His name was SWIM *faceplam*
Question: is *facepalm* a big no no also?

I've noticed that SWIM has been a lot less frequent, especially in these introductory posts. I learned a lot from SWIM

I agree with you completely ZenPuppy, that it's a lot of fun going through the extracts, growing, and in general learning how the process works to get to the end product. As they say, it's not the destination but the journey that counts.

Welcome to the Nexus family.
