Planning San Pedro trip

I have about 22 inches of San Pedro ranging from 2-4 inches in diameter. They are my cacti, but I don't want my mom to flipout when thier missing. I've been trying to think of a good way or reason that I could cut em down, but nothing has come to me. My mom doesn't know it's psychoactive, but she would probably question where it went.
 
Who cares what my mom thinks? I'm going to do about 14 inches for my first time. It's about 100 degrees here, and I think it should be potent enough for a good trip. My method of Preperation will probably be, removing the spines and cutting it into slices, putting it into a blender and then boiling it down to a few cups.
 
I'd try "preparing" a tiny bit and see how you feel about drinking it.

A lot of people spend an awful lot of effort getting a "few cups" of vile tasting, stinking, repugnant black cactus snot, take a sip, gip, vomit, and then throw the rest of the cup in the bin.
 
So far I have about 5 cups of pretty watery liquid. I strained it through a Tshirt and squeezed the juices out of it. I am heating up the pulp with a small amout of water to strain again.
 
Well have fun, man. Don't worry about your mother, tell her you gave it away or something else she could believe.
 
I told her that it will only flower if you cut it atleast once. She was just like oh, whatever. No questions asked. So I have my liquid in the freezer inside of an old plastic protein powder container. Will it do any harm to freeze it?
 
Okay, one cup down. 4 more to go. Of the most vile bitter bell pepper tasting shit ever.. My chaser is a dairy queen berry smoothie, it helps a little bit. I already feel something, but its probably just excitement.
 
Mixing it with apple juice worked best for hiding the taste in my experience. Have an awesome time, man! San Pedro is an awesome experience! I have my little buddy growin on my balcony, not even a foot tall yet hehe
 
Overall, I would have to admit that the trip was disappointing for the amount of disgusting liquid I had to drink. I did feel some things I've never felt before, and I can say your emotions run wild on it. But I have no idea how I'm going to do it again, but Im going to take another 6 inches atleast.

That's too bad. Upping the dose sounds good. I've only done it once, but when I did I used a little over a foot, but it was a cutting from a cactus that was probably nearly 15 years old. A very large diameter. What was the process you used to make yours?

The end result for me was a very smooth and pleasant trip. Not the most intense trip, but a valuable one nonetheless with an interesting lucid head space and subtle visuals. Something I would definitely investigate again if I had the time.
 
Yeah that's a shame. I would definitely think about giving it another shot with a higher dose, but then, I don't know how bad that stuff tastes, I've only heard testemonies.
 
My process was as follows: I cut about 14 or 15 inches of the main stalk off, rangeing from about 2 1/2 inches to 4 inches in diameter, I used a knife to remove all prominent needles. Sliced into star like pieces and put into blender. I put it into a pot that was nonstick. And I cooked it about half an hour, making sure not to overheat. I then used a Tshirt to strain it back into the blender, I took the pieces left in the shirt and put them in the same pot with water and heated. I strained and squeezed liquid out of the gunk. I think I heated it once more to make sure it lost it's foaminess. I then put it into a plastic container in my freezer, and it sat for a few hours. I took it out and let it unthaw, and drank it over the course of I'd say half an hour. I got in the shower and got out, noticing everything was intensified..

It's like drinking a bell pepper smoothie, it kinda burns a little bit and you can only drink so much before your stomach demands a chaser. You dread the smell because it means the taste is coming up. I added a small amount of lemon juice, and it helped a little. Another note. I ate a small club sandwich about 2 hours prior to drinking. I had 2 dr peppers and a berry smoothie over the course of getting it down.
 
I realize this a late response but form what I read I don't think you prepared it right.

Everything you did was correct prior to blending. Cutting off the spikes is unnecessary because they'll get ground into benign pieces and/or get caughted in the t-shirt when you strain them.

I didn't see you mention the use of water. Get 2 tupperware containers. Fill one up with stars and the other with an equal proportion of water to the stars, and put that in the blender. The result should be a light green foam. When you've blended it all up, cook it in the pot on low heat until you get a goo like substance, but don't burn it. Strain that and you have your drink.

...Pretty much this
