the percentage of alkoloids isnt as important as knowing the process. the fact I have pv die off like most everyone else but my pc flourishes is good news for those who want to become self sufficient with different plants.

184grams PC/three pulls of 25% vinegar = 3650ml,
basified with 90grams of lye,
extracted with five pulls of 100ml naptha = 500ml,
evapped to a thick oily clear film in small glass baking pan,
oily film re-dissolved in 120ml of pure HOT vinegar,
defatted with four 30ml defats of toluene,
rebasified with 10 grams NaOH,
extracted with four 30ml pulls of naptha,
evapped in a small glass baking pan to a thin oily clear film,
oily film re-dissolved in 100ml of HOT vinegar,
defatted 3x with 100ml toluene (total 300ml),
rebasified with 8grams of lye,
extracted with three pulls of 100ml naptha = 300ml.
evapped to a speckled clear film,
mixed with dried parsley and smoked with negligible effects. Maybe a 10milligram effect at most.
Bummer. Carth is too weak to be of practical value. I have a good supply of my own home grown Viridis leaf. Maybe over Christmas I'll extract it and post pix of the extraction and results...

think you might try a different batch sometime, since plants vary so much ?

I just curious as to why there are so many steps in your extract. Is it to get a truly pure final product?
Do you think you might have lost some spice with all the pulls and re-dissolves?
be well

Should know the dream results of a 250 gram PV extraction later, 6 liters of ph=4 acidified water from combined multiple crockpot simmers have been reduced down to 600 ml of concentrated acidic extract by using a slow simmer in two 2.5 liter corning ware stove pots with a fan blowing over them for evaporation of most of the water...the concentrated acidic extract for use in a 1 liter sep funnel -- next steps defat, then extraction, sodium bicarbonate ph = 8.5 water wash, evaporation/freezing/evaporation...will post results then -- peruvian vs. hawaiian, with the peruvian done first...very interested in a 100% pure form of xtals for use with harmine hcl orally for pseudo--ayahuasca visuals/sessions (harmine composes 69% of caapi brew, and was used successfuly in pure forum (harmine hcl) by sync, godofemptiness, drstrange, and delysid multiple times at the aya forum many years back, resulting in spectacular dreams with no loss of the 'spirit' of caapi. Foaf has taken 170mg of pure harmine and experienced no nausea, no appetite loss, was pleasant, fasted 5 hours after a dinner containing 8 oz cheese dip, beef enchiladas with cheese...experienced no headache, or any other problems...look forward to adding the 'light' or xtals eventually. Many years ago foaf experienced the 'classic' ayahuasca visuals on high dose acid (10 plus hits) which included Egyptian pyramids (seen in all their newness and majesty) made of what looked like gold bricks, surrounded by golden sands, dragons, serpents, angels made of white light, teaching voice, etc...this leads me to believe that sacred ayahuasca visuals and sessions may be made possible by the use of xtals in pure form from the plants just as well as taking the plant forms in a brew...have read Benny Shanon's 'Antipodes of the Mind' several times and recognize that this is very different from smoked dmt. Pure harmine or caapi on its own without dmt ( in larger than normal doses, but not recommended because it causes loss of balance and sea-sickness feelings as well as loss of appetite--foaf has been thru this twice) has also resulted in faint closed eye visuals made of dark greens and blues (not bright at all) which included visuals of a grand wooden boat on the sea, Spanish stone architecture and gardens, serpents, jaguar, people, even a spinning ufo...items relating to culture and nature--these visions were highly detailed, they just weren't bright....foaf can hardly stand the taste of real aya brew...like drinking muddy water and extreme bitterness at the same time...I have tremendous respect for this medicine.
