Then after a half hour or so, I will take 15 grams of viridis... a hour later another 15 grams.
Is this what you recommend for a first time user (ayahuasca that is..) ?

Take it all together. There is no need to drink the Caapi seperate. 15g of Chacruna is not enough.
It is always best to make a double dose. Something like 60g Chacruna and 60 to 80g Caapi. Dink 1/2 of the resulting extract. After 3 or 4 hours drinking you can drink the rest. Most of the time the second dose gives the best experiance from my experiance.

I usualy do 2 dose on the night I dream. 45g Chacruna, and 60 g Caapi, per dose.
You have to work yourself up to this. Sometimes I even add 10 g chalaponga or few leaves of N. rustica if I am in need of a powerfull purge.

But I'll think I still take de caapi first because it makes me calm (anti depressant) !
I noticed this, when I drank 10 grams of Caapi as an experiment...
I'm always a little bit nervous when I try something new !
Still.. there is some Caapi/Viridis left for a second try on Christmas,if it turns out to be a dud !

AND I DON"T FEEL NOTHING !!!
The Caapi I used was 7 month old ..so I think it doesn't have any alkoloids left !
To bad,I'm only a little bit nauseous !
So best thing to do now..is to order some fresh Caapi and try again !

Prepare 80 - 100 g of Caapi per person
It's better to have more caapi then not enough.
This is what allows the actives to take affect,
Prepare half your body weight in cappi.
Psychotria is not an easy plant.
It comes on differently than Mimosa.
Despite the same presumed active molecules.
There is a difference, I don't know why.
Mimosa is always there when you drink it.
Even as little as 2.5 grams can be felt and used to slightly dream,
while with Psychotria, sometimes the usual starter's dose (30gr)
is not felt at all, as if there were absolutely nothing in it.
That's why I suggest either you start with 50 grams psychotria, or about 8 grams Mimosa. The latter is also easier to prepare because of the lesser amounts of powder and water to deal with.
also.. I can give you a trick or two:
eat only rice, fish and plantains for three days before your session. Don't drink alcohol for two or three weeks before your session... It will not increase the effects, but it will increase your awareness, your capacity to keep calm when the visions come and to see more clearly whatever comes to you.

Is it worth it ?
Do you really get more of the good stuff out of your plant materials ?
