"dude... i just read about this bacteria that makes lsd... we should let some wounds get infected so we can trip nonstop until we get gangrene!"
the secondary metabolites of microorganisms are a vast and unstudied subject. for one, you first need a sterile culture of the organism in order to determine that the compound you found is indeed produced by this organism and not that one over there. then obviously you have the tiny tiny scales involved...
honestly, with the presence of DMT and its related compounds in a number of plant and animal genera, i would be surprised if there were NO microorganisms that produced DMT.

You could try eating contaminated food items and note the effects.
Although frankly, I think the only effect that you could compare with a Ayahuasca trip is the vomitting part.
I agree that this is an understudied area of science.

Well as human beings we tend to be more interested in the macro side of things, even though the micro world is far more varied and interesting. As well as impossible.
I mean it took fucking long enough to figure out the physics of a flagellum, simply because it operates a microscopic scale and therefore the perceived results of its motion seemed totally mind boggling.
