Hello again folks-
So I have this new friend who has more familiarity with chemistry and whatnot than any other junkie I've run into. He tells me that adding just a few drops of vinegar (or equivalent acid, ideally ascorbic acid aka Vitamin C powder) will somehow increase the potency of the tar heroin shot (well lately it's been that "brown powder"-type stuff).
On a sidenote, this friend has access to equipment at his school that can apparently measure the purity of dope by way of using a laser rigged to a computer. The old tar dope I got measured in at 42.3% pure for diacetylmorphine (heroin), and this new powder stuff came in at 62.1% pure, not too shabby at all! Best use of school equipment and after-school hours I've ever heard of hah hah
Anyways, I've tried this adding vinegar thing just now and I really don't know for certain if I felt anything "extra" or whether it was just placebo. I wanna say that I did notice an extra "kick" to the shot actually...decent considering I wasn't expecting a miracle by doing this.
So does anyone know enough about this to shed some light on it? Like if heroin (specifaclly black tar, I imagine the East Coast variety is different) has an optimal pH value before it is injected for maximum effectiveness? It's weird cause black tar/brown powder Mexican heroin always has a vinegar stench to it in the first place.
Help much appreciated %)
