Snorting mescaline powder?

[iROLL22]

Curious if anyone has ever tried this. What are the changes in come up, intensity of effects, duration? I have access to the extracted forms of mescaline so just interested if the powder is doable up the nose

I don't see why it wouldn't work, but you'll want 250 or 300 mg assuming roughly double the potency of oral dosage, and so if it burns anywhere near as badly as most other phenethylamines you'll be in for a world of hurt. Not to mention if it's extracted there may be quite a bit of left over plant matter which will turn into cactus snot, overflow the volume of your nasal cavities, and keep the alkaloids from coming into contact with the nasal tissues (I'd almost pay to see someone try snorting impure cactus extract because I imagine it would be a hilarious sight). Personally I'd put a small amount in a small volume of water and see if it dissolves cleanly first. I don't know what other chemicals were used in the extraction, but you might also want to test the pH of the resulting solution to see if there's any surplus acids or bases left in the extract. If all is well then skip the insufflation and plug that shit.

I think rectal administration might be considerably less uncomfortable. (Insert joke aout plugging San Pedro here) 300mg is a lot of powder to insufflate and phenethylamines are not known for being kind on your nose (terrible burning with 2c-x and amphetamines).

No idea what the effects on intensity would be, but I would expect the comeup to be drastically shortened as it is with most phens.
