Alright so I've finished planning my extraction and well on my way to gathering the material, it cost me about $80. I'm hoping to get a clean extraction, I'm fairly confident this is pretty easy after all the research I've done. Anyway, my plan was to for my first experience load up about a bit of weed in a pinch hitter to cover the hole, put the dmt in, and load up the rest with weed until full. I'm sure this will work and will be a good experience but I can't be too sure. Will this method of smoking work? And what dose would be best for this method, considering it's a trial and first time attempt.
Weed burns really hot relative to DMT. Also, I feel dosing DMT with weed or pre-dosing DMT with a heavy dose of weed makes the trips even harder to remember. Anyway, I recommend going to an herbal store and buying a bit of mullein. It is a smoking herb that actually enhances lung absorption. Surprisingly, it is smoked by asthmatics for this effect. Really helps with DMT absorption. Also, it is always making an effort to vaporize rather than burn DMT. Tastes better and I feel is less of a rough ride. Everyone seems to have a different opinion on initial dose level. I recommend starting low, like 10-20 mgs. Profound, full-blown "breakthrough" effects are usually achievable if you take in 40-50 mgs in 1 minute or less. Good luck on your extraction - may your yield be large. I look forward to hearing how it goes.
Not sure what a pinch hitter is but it sounds like a pipe. If you are smoking it out of a pipe hit it very slowly and keep the flame from the lighter above the weed or muellin at like a 45 degree angle letting your inhalation bringing the flame down, you don't want the flame aimed directly down with the dmt beneath. You will burn the dmt and most likely cough ferociously. Pick a dose and pack 10 mgs more to compensate for burned and/or inhaled dmt that will stick to the sides of the bowl. So if you plan to do 20 mgs, do 20 + 10 = 30 mgs
Hmm, is a pinch hitter, what us old farts used to call "baseball" pipes. A little metallic tube (yuck!) with a tiny bowl that holds a single pinch of weed. You'd load ground up weed in the bottom of this rectangular case on one side-chamber and the pipe went into the other side. You'd carry it around, then slide the top open and the little pipe pops out. Then you press it down into the side with the weed to get a perfect, tiny, one hit bowl. If that's what you mean, please just use a glass pipe. Careful, the DMT WILL melt - so lay down as many screens as possible (probably 2-3 in a glass pipe) to create a metallic matrix to catch any unused spice for your next hit and to prevent hot DMT from sliding down the pipe into your mouth, should you miss that 45 degree angle. Stainless steel is called for here - it is non-reactive with most chemistry.
the terminology for that is a one-hitter and a dugout. i can hardly believe i went all summer without trying DMT. wonder if my shit will be degraded by next summer. it's being stored in a refrigerator.
It will keep nicely for years, though the color may change slightly due to oxidation effects. Dr. Shulgin kept a collection of various tryptamines in a shoe box in a closet (not special storage) for 20-25 years and much of the material was still intact.
Yeah the pinch hitter is how you described it, Spicey. I am lacking of the dugout system, Porkstock, I just use a play-do container for my green hehe. Anyway I'm planning on doing the extraction over my long Thanksgiving break. I'll be sure to post some pictures and let yall know how it went.
