Formosahuasca Experiment #1 (11/08/2020)
Purpose
Establish threshold dose by taking a dose I assume will induce no effects, or very minimal effects if there are any.
Materials
- 50g powdered ACRB suspended in 1 qt tap water, acidified with juice of 1 lemon, for 7 days, with daily agitation
- Syrian Rue tea brewed with 1 pint of water, 3.5g seeds; 3x extracted, reduced to 1/2 pint, strained
Process
- 1/2 pint of Syrian Rue tea consumed in one gulp
- 1/2 pint of cold-brewed ACRB consumed, 30min later
- - Struggled to keep it down, it was nasty and gritty
- - Over the course of the next half hour, nausea increased
- - 45 minutes later, very minor visual distortions occurred along with a slight elevation of mood
- - Effects lasted for approximately 2 hours
- - Nausea lasted for the next day and a half
Shulgin Scale: half a plus
Formosahuasca Experiment #2 (11/10/2020)
Purpose
Same as before, but I want to see if I can get any effect from a Syrian Rue tea that's been left to sit.
Materials
- 50g powdered ACRB suspended in 1 qt tap water, acidified with juice of 1 lemon, for 10 days, with daily agitation
- Syrian Rue tea brewed with 1 pint of water, 6g seeds; 4x extracted, 4th extraction was introducing more water, heating it, and then pulling with 1 pint of solution remaining. Unstrained. Put into jar and left to sit in fridge for 4 days.
Process
- 1/2 pint of sitting Syrian Rue tea consumed in one gulp (should be equivalent to 3g Syrian Rue)
- 1/2 pint of cold-brewed ACRB consumed, 30min later
- - Absolutely no effects, not even nausea.
Shulgin Scale: N/A.
Morning Glory Experiment #1 (11/11/2020)
Purpose
To see if I can get an effective CWE of MG. The previous two experiments were minimalist doses; I assumed there would be effects, so I sought the highest, non-effective, dose possible. This is a maximalist experiment. I assume there won't be any effects, so I'm going to try and find the lowest possible dose that induces effects. Because I assume there won't be effects, I'll take a large dose.
Materials
- Dark room
- Coffee grinder
- 1,000 MG seeds
- Peppermint Extract
- Pint jar
Process
- 1,000 MG seeds (37.55g) ground to a fine flour in coffee grinder, in 3x bursts of 15sec, in unlit room
- Transferred flour from grinder into a pint jar filled with unchlorinated drinking water
- Wrapped in shirt and placed into fridge
- Agitated for 1 minute every 15 minutes for an hour
- Filtered 3x through shirt
- 5 drops of peppermint extract introduced to filtered product
- Wrapped in shirt and placed into fridge
- Agitated for 1 minute every 15 minutes for an hour
- Entire pint consumed
Results yet to come, I am posting this as I'm going through the process. I'm currently in the first agitation stage. I will be watching this thread in case anyone has recommendations.
