The Big & Dandy Basic Mescaline/Cactus Questions Thread - Round Two!

As long as you see that 99.9% number on it you're fine. The other 0.1% is just water. Pure methanol absorbs moisture from the air. Methanol makes people go blind if you drink enough of it. If it's evaporated from your extract you're perfectly fine, whatever few molecules of it are left in there are harmless. The adulterant in the solvents is usually confined to naphtha for acid/base extractions. Some naphtha's have nasty adulterants but not methanol.
 
hmm, that's kind of variable. Make sure it's in a well ventilated place with airflow over the surface of the methanol. They best way to know it's done is by visual inspection. If it looks wet, let it dry some more. If it looks dry, it's done. You can also feel it with your fingers for this.
 
Not sure about the smell thing but if you need to hide it you might be better off doing an alcohol extraction. You can do it in your room. It'll have a better effect with less nausea and you don't have to taste the horrid tasting tea.

alright, I'll look into it
 
Alcohol extraction is a great way to go, finding space to evaporate it off can be a hassle though & the fumes from IPA are not too pleasant to be near.
 
sounds like the fumes and shit will defeat the purpose of not boiling it
 
^^ I've found if you evaporate it next to a window with a fan over it blowing out, the fumes in the room aren't really strong enough to be a problem.
 
Mescaline dosage questions....

How many people can have a good first experience off of 3g's of mescaline hydrochloride? I'm looking kinda for that sweet spot dose where they won't be completely overwhelmed but will definitely get a taste of the feel/visuals of mescaline.

Should I match the doses for weight?

The reason I ask is my birthday is coming up and well, I have a lot of friends :)
 
I'd say 10 people. 300mg is a medium dose. It should give mescaline's full character without being overwhelming. I wouldn't worry too much about the weight matching. The HCl is more potent than the sulfate, so you might want to factor that in but 300mg is the ballpark. Good for 10 friends :)

does mescaline have any long term effects to the brain, besides psychologically?

Nope. It's one of the safest psychedelics there is. It has physical overdose potential but only at huge 1000mg+ doses. You can use mescaline your whole life in moderate doses and be fine. It's been used for thousands of years by native peoples without any harm whatsoever, on the contrary there were lots of benefits.
 
^ Except that it has a real potential to cause psychological damage, even if you do not suffer from any pre-existing mental illness or psychological issues. Mescaline is nothing to be taken lightly - it is an extremely powerful substance that can have a profound effect on your perception of the world. Don't get me wrong, I'm pretty sure you already know this and I'm not trying to say you don't know what you're talking about when you obviously do, but I just wanted to make this clear to anyone who is considering trying this substance. Bad trips are real and do happen.
 
yeah tripping (on any psych) is SO profoundly different to 'normal' consciousness that some people get caught off guard and panic.. only seen it happen with mushrooms myself (to me and to mates) but I'm sure it can happend with mesc or LSD as well.. never tried mescaline, really need to invest in some cactus :)
 
Set and setting aside, are lower doses less likely to cause bad trips than higher doses?

Also, what other substances present in San Pedro apart from mescaline are psychoactive? Do the other substances produce synergy with the mescaline like cannabinoids other than THC in cannabis do?
 
There's many, many other alkaloids in cactus other than mescaline. A peyote or san pedro trip are both different from each other, they are both different than taking pure mescaline.
