This 10 page paper I wrote was posted in the Deep knowledge archives of Mycotopia "Lucid and visual morning glory extracts":
https://mycotopia.ne...y-lsa-extracts/
I did a recent extraction on 500 heavenly blue morning glory seeds using 1 shot of 190% everclear along with added 20mg of DL tartaric acid combined with 1 shot of Sherry wine, both everclear and wine kept cold in fridge to prevent acetaldehyde in the wine from evaporating off, as this occurs at 70 degree F. Incredible experience, imagine your best 2 hit LSD experience x two, this is what it felt like, more visual than acid, colored rainbows everywhere in mid-air, warping and melting of furniture, colored intricate geometric CEV's, strong euphoria, stimulating like acid and music was just fantastic, and no anxiety or confusion like LSD....I am thinking of always combining this MG extract with my future bridgesii tea which I always take before I go to the waterpark, where I trip all morning and early afternoon long.
There are around 32 to 36 seeds to a gram. So 12 to 14 grams is 400 seeds to 500 seeds.
How this works: "New research: Morning glory contains 5 stimulating LSD-like drugs, soluble only in wine/alcohol, only sparingly soluble in water"

See the posts by chemist Peter Webster, Dr. D and Stretchman in the top post above "Lucid and visual mg extracts" on 3rd page who also extracted into everclear with added DL tartaric acid to convert the freebase alkaloids found in the rubbery embryo of the seeds into their salt form for better extraction and stomach absorption and had phenomenal trips. You will want to include one shot of sherry wine with your everclear, as it is high in acetaldehyde (10mg per shot) and will convert the LSA to LSH via adduct addition once you let the mixture sit in fridge for 3 hours with shaking hard for one minute once per hour. I will post pics and instructions next time I do this here below. You need to use a lot of seeds, 500 is a great dose.
0. Replace light bulb in garage or room lamp where you do this with a "red light bulb" found at grocery store or similar, to create low light conditions to keep fragile alkaloids from decomposing.
1. Crush 500 seeds between a paper plate with ends folded over on cement floor using hammer
2. Put crushed seed powder in a coffee grinder and grind to dust
3. Add this seed dust to 1/2 pint jar containing 1 to 1.5 shot of 190% proof everclear + 10mg DL tartaric acid (*mazon) + 1 to 1.5 shot of sherry wine (2oz total), you can increase to 1.5 shot of both if you desire (3oz total), make sure both are fridge cold, as acetaldehyde boils off at 70 degree F or room temp, you don't want your LSH decomposing the LSA do you?
4. Let this jar sit in fridge for at least 3 hours or longer, can even sit overnight or days, shake jar for one minute hard at least once per hour during the 3 hours.
5. Decant and Filter the cold liquid above the seed debris through a cotton ball stuffed in a funnel, the cotton will remove all the nauseating seed debris, but leave the active liquid to flow through the cotton, change out the cotton when and if it clogs, continue to filter.
6. Freeze this liquid if you plan to use weeks later or keep in fridge at all times if you plan to use it soon (within days). Always keep cold or the acetaldehyde will boil out and the LSH will decompose to LSA.
7. Drink the liquid while it is cold only, enjoy a lucid and visual trip, imagine your best 2 hit acid trip x two.
Note: DO NOT ADD MORE THAN 20mg DL tartaric acid to the 1 to 1.5 shot sherry wine + 1 to 1.5 shot everclear...too much DL tartaric acid can upset ph balance of the body and you will feel really bad...20mg will keep ph no lower than 3.5. The wine will go from natural ph=4 down to ph=3.5, but no lower. You will need a 1mg (0.001g) electronic scale to do this, like the AWS GPR-20 20g x 0.001g scale for example. It needs to be DL tartaric acid and not just plain L tartaric acid, The d-form salt is the form LSD is active as for example, not the L-form.
Note, very important: Cold sherry cooking wine is recommended as an extraction solution since it is already at ph=4 and is 18% alcohol, and is also very cheap ($5 per bottle). It can be found in the wine isle of any grocery store, and is often on sale. It also contains 10mg acetaldehyde per each shot (30ml). A $9 wine preserver canister can be bought at Amazon which contains a gas mixture of argon, carbon dioxide & other inert gases which can be sprayed into an open bottle of sherry wine before sealing cork to preserve the wine indefinitely in the fridge, otherwise the acetaldehyde in the wine converts to acetic acid over time, giving the wine a vinegar taste. Without the acetaldehyde kept intact, the LSA will NOT convert to LSH, so keep your wine fresh by sealing it with wine preserver gas from canister. The wine preserver contains enough gas to last for years of sealing many bottles.
Vecktor (advanced chemist like myself):
tregar, you have probably rediscovered something that has long been a curiosity, for example on the now defunct blacklight site there was TLC posted of morning glory seed extract treated with methanol, acetaldehyde-methanol or with acetaldehyde-methanol-water, the extract treated with acetaldehyde-methanol or acetaldehyde-methanol-water showed a clear difference in the alkaloid profile, with a shift to several new non polar spots which couldn't be identified. Very likely the LSA converted to LSH (LSA + acetaldehyde = LSH). IIRC Erhlichs was used to develop the plates so these were indole compounds.
fastandbulbous (chem wizard from bluelight):
Apparently N-(1-hydroxyethyl)lysergamide (LSH) is an adduct compound formed from lysergamide (lysergic acid amide, LSA/LAA, LA-111) and acetaldehyde. This hints towards the idea that isn't the most stable of compounds, but would be pretty easily formed by the combination of lysergamide (LSA) & acetaldehyde under physiological conditions (ie a way to get much more & better psychedelic activity from any lysergamide extracted from seed sources).
Chemist Peter Webster who spoke at the LSD symposium:
LSH is a labile adduct of ergine (LSA) and acetaldehyde.
-----------------------------------2nd trip report 7.21.2022:--------------------------------------------
I also took 300mg of very pure tetrahydroharmine (psychedeic SRI) at the same time.
Holy cow! I just had an experience this afternoon on 15g heavenly blue MG extracted into 1oz everclear + 1oz wine + 20mg DL tartaric acid..
More powerful than 400ug of acid! And zero anxiety or paranoia like with LSD, this felt so more natural...I looked at my skin and saw hieroglyphic symbols all over them...closed eye visuals of dancing geometrics, thousands upon thousands they were so intricate.
Open eye alternating colors on all the walls. So divinely beautiful.
Very strong euphoria, incredible colors, infinite open eyed beauty. Way more colorful than LSD, these are vibrant & rich almost other worldly.
This is just as powerful as any of my high dose cactus experiences. Intensely sacred & very healing I really need this! 8 to 10 hour experience.
Music so bad ass it's beyond comprehension. Identical to mescaline rich music enhancement....super deep head space...this LSH + penniclavine is unreal!!!!!!!
I'm just like all of you, burning up in this heat...climate change is so real...thank goodness for this very powerful trip, it was so welcome. I have to walk my dog every day off at 7am in the parks and rivers to stay cool. I visit the waterpark once a week with my family where I used to lifeguard, as it is right down the road...and even then, we have to leave at 2pm its just so hot.
In less than 1 hour the extract is ready, a few minutes to prepare and 45 minutes of it sitting in fridge with shaking once every 15 minutes.
Keep in mind: I experienced zero nausea using this powerful extract and absolutely no cramping or vasoconstriction...ergometrine which causes cramping and vasoconstriction is very low in MG at only 3% while it is quite high in HBWR seeds at 17%, see graphs and pics in the beginning of this thread. HBWR also lacks penniclaivine and the other 4 alkaloids in MG that were found just as stimulating as LSD in animal experiments, important teamwork.
This extract is stimuating just like LSD and zero sedation...the LSH that is made from LSA with this tek is stimulating, just like the stimulating penniclavine in the seeds.
Update: Next day feel very pleasant afterglow, like a serotonin reset, very refreshed feeling. Before going to sleep, the effects of the 15g MG LSH/penniclavine extract + 300mg THH were still working, viewed around 45 minutes worth of closed eye visions, some of the most incredible visions I have ever seen of an overhead view of landscapes with beaches and sand dunes with winding trails that led to impressive architecture atop a hill, very relaxing scenery. I continued to see colored dots and trails that darted around like fireworks and shot across my closed eye visual field...these trails would then come together to form the monochrome realistic visions. These visions were beyond 4k and very detailed.
After the beach scenery, saw an Egyptian thoth, with the head of an ibis but beak of a bird. Then he disappeared and was replaced with a beautiful Egyptian woman with flowing robe, she held out her hands to me as if to show me something. She was then replaced with Mayan or Aztec pyramids, the detail of the steps incredible, then saw an overhead view of an ancient religious dwelling made out of stone, sort of like Stonehenge but different. I could tell people used to gather there and had spiritually significant ceremonies. Dozens of visions continued before I drifted off to sleep, some like snapshops, others like slow or fast moving movies, too numerous to mention here, but all beyond breathtaking.
Tetrahydroharmine or THH is a pyschedelic SRI or serotonin reuptake inhibitor (not an maoi or rima like harmine, even though it has harmine in the name) that is found in Caapi vine. I make her myself at home from harmaline. She functions as a "psychedelic amplifier" and like the natives say, this alkaloid brings out the "essence" of other psychoactive plants. She (female teaching spirit) is stimulating, has many entheogenic qualities in common with mescaline and has a 10.5 hour half life with peak at 5.25 hours. Combining her with the MG extract is just incredible, she amplifies the effects of the extract, the euphoria of both in combo is very strong. 12 beautiful qualities of tetrahydroharmine written about in #1 link below, having used her over 200 times in a decade.
As mentioned in post above, music was so heavenly...had my headphones on the whole time and the music was if I was hearing it for the very first time...just as strong as when you take a high dose cactus tea, no different, was shocked at how incredible it sounded, gasped in awe at the music so many times, so alien sounding, so incredibly beautiful....will be using this MG extract at least once a week or every 2 weeks from now on, beyond impressed with the effects.
Had 4k movies playing and all the actresses looked like glowing, dazzling, beautiful colorful cartoon versions of themselves, their bodily features exaggerated...their necklaces and sparkling dresses shown and glistened like precious stones, so beautiful...there was a colored shimmering around all people & objects, like a fine colored rainbow reflection...heavy tracers...powerful mesmerizing euphoria. There was an "alive" quality to even inanimate objects. Everything shown as if it had a powerful divine light within itself, the divine interconnection of everything was apparent. The shifting of textures and patterns was magical, extremely visual & audial. For only one dollar, had an experience that was as powerful as two 12" bridgesii...still in shock at how incredible the experience was, highly recommend.
In the future, will always continue to take 300mg of tetrahydroharmine at the exact same time in a capsule when I drink the MG LSH + penniclavine extract, it was one of the most powerful psychedelic experiences of my life.
When the combo hit me after I drank it, I could feel it working in only 30 minutes, then at 45 minutes it was very strong, that's when I saw the hieroglyphic symbols all over my skin and when I closed my eyes, saw the super fine intricate dancing geometrics...I put my headphones on and the music carried me beyond this world, the most beautiful and alien music sounded, super enhanced, like hearing music for the very first time. The walls in front of me turned a pink color, then alternated to a green color, so beautiful...was mesmerized by the euphoria.
Walking outside, nature shown with a diamond like brilliance...looking at the clouds outside in late afteroon and there was a rippling effect like I have seen with high dose cactus, seeing the clouds move in 1/2 second shot frames, like stop gap animation. This experience was so much more natural feeling then LSD and had the power of 4 strong hits of 100ug of acid or 400ug, but take away the inability to think or thought confusion of LSD, the anxiety, take away the choppiness or frame-like nature of LSD visuals and repacing with flowing visions, stronger colors and stronger music enhancement, divine aesthetic infinite open eyed beauty...very deep headspace, the healing was profound.

I will show pictures later as I took them every step of the way.
1. 1 shot fridge cold everclear and 1 shot sherry wine (just opened)
2. 20mg DL tartaric acid added (this aids extraction greatly as it converts the freebase alkaloids to the active D form salts, way better absorption in stomach) added to 1 fridge cold shot everclear + 1 fridge cold shot sherry wine, very high in acetaldehyde as there is 10mg per 1oz of sherry, for causing the LSA to transform to LSH due to attraction/condensation reaction forming stable alkaloid. Notice adding 20mg DL tartaric acid powder only took the PH = normal 4. to 3.5
3. 15g of heavenly blue morning glory (I buy in lots direct from grower) weighed out. I store MG lot bag in vacuum bag in freezer, this helps alkaloids remain intact for years. I buy a $30 vacuum bag sealer from *almart to seal the seeds before putting back in freezer.
4. crush it all in between a paper plate with ends folded end on concrete floor with just a lamp on in the garage to keep low light until alkaloids form salts a litter further down, then they are stable to bright light.
5. coffee grinder then ground the debris further into a fine dust...you want to use a coffee grinder....as the alkaloids are all within the tight hard embryo of the seed.
6. 15g dust and debris all dissolved into the 1 shot everclear + 1 shot sherry wine, all kept cold to keep acetaldehyde from evaporating off, as this happens at 70 degree F, always keep cool. I shook this hard for 1 minute, then put back in fridge, then 15 minutes later shook it hard for 1 minute, then did all this once again 15 minutes later. Then allowed around 5 minutes or so for the debris to fall to bottom, then decant off the solution over the cotton ball filter. Always re-seal the wine by spraying $9 wine preserver gas into wine, then replace cork and store in fridge, this way the precious acetaldehyde in the wine does not decompose to vinegar as naturally happens over 5 days.
7. The MG debris all filtered thru one cotton ball, had to change out once, then it filtered thru 2nd cotton ball, all the actives remain in solution, but the cotton ball takes out all the nauseating debris to the intestines, zero nausea experience.
8. ending solution, keep cold at all times. This afternoon, drank LSH + penniclavine extract and resulted in 8 hour experience, more powerful than 400ug of acid, more natural, love more than acid. One of the most powerful psychedelic experiences of my life. Profound sacred healing.
