I just wanted to create a thread so that some of us who "know" can inform those of us that "don't know" about some of the misconceptions circulating around about DMT. There are many. Especially for people just getting into it and wanting to extract their own. I have found that there are a lot of people on the internet spreading around hearsay and just posting things that they have heard other people say without actually ever performing or putting to test the things they are saying in their "advice". Opinions and their influence is a strange thing. What I would like to personally like to steer back into the right direction is the misconception that any other color other than white DMT is shit. This is totally wrong. There is a belief in some that "pure" white DMT is somehow "superior" to all others or that is somehow "better" for your experience. Furthermore, the misconception that the other colors (red, orange, yellow) is "worse" or "bad" or "what you don't want" is totally bogus. I personally have found red to be the strongest. And with more pattern type behavior than anything else. Orange is just as wild. Yellow is generally what everyone has being "pulling" for a long time in their extractions. Recrystallization is great, but in some cases if you smoke the other stuff (that you're supposedly supposed to throw away) effects will happen and you will get fucked up. Some have actually had amazingly great experiences from that stuff, and this is the stuff with less to no DMT in it. This is because there is usually more than just The DMT molecule or alkaloid in the plant or tree that contains it. Mimosa Hostilis Rootbark (MHRB), for example, has other psychoactive alkaloids in it besides just DMT and their effect paired with the DMT effect itself can most definitely add potency to your final product and experience. This is why you hear things about "jungle spice" or similar. There are even some plants and trees on this earth that if you remove the DMT from the final product you actually increase the potency of the product. I think people need to understand that the plant itself deserves just as much attention, respect, and consideration, if not more, than any one molecule being extracted from it. I also think that white is not necessarily better in terms of experience. Some people just want to isolate the DMT molecule as best as they can and compete with "purity". In which ya, go for clear/white. I have. Many times. It is fun. But I think there should be a clear distinction between "purity" and "great product" because in the case of DMT it is not necessarily correct that a "purer DMT product" equals a "superior alkaloid extraction product". Don't get me wrong, white is cool...and fun, really clean in my opinion, but you're really missing out if you think that's as good as it gets. That's all I'm saying. Anyone have any other misconceptions they'd like to clear up? I can think of a few but I just thought I'd put that out there.
I've never done it. Some questions I have. What is the best method/device for smoking? If you could provide links to specific pipes/bongs that would be cool. On the topic of extraction. Does using pre-groud root have any effect on the potency?
The Red 'Jungle Spice' DMT I've had was probably the most consistently intense DMT I've explored. I found those trips to have a darker tone than most of my other DMT trips with frequent presence of entities. Not sure whether to chalk that up to Set and Setting or the other alkaloids influencing the DMT trip.
I use a vapor genie. They work great but all you really need is any pipe that allows you to heat and not directly burn the DMT. Allot of people just get the cheap crack pipes from the corner store but I also use my genie for bud so it works out. http://www.rakuten.com/prod/walnut-...e&adid=18170&gclid=CILCzvjK7r4CFUOSfgodoGYA9g I have never noticed any potency lose from per-ground stuff. But it always been pretty fresh. If you had it sitting around for a few months or more that could affect it.
ive always had good success with a normal pipe like the kind you would smoke weed out of by sandwiching the dmt between 2 layers of smokable plant material. pretty much any way that you can vaporize the dmt but too much heat will degrade some of the dmt. i don't really like using a "meth pipe" to smoke dmt cuz it seems like the dmt wants to avoid the heat or something and tries to run away from the flame up the sides of the bowl instead of making one big puddle at the bottom. some of my strongest experiences with dmt were from vaporizing off of a foil "boat" like you would use to smoke heroin.
