Before I read all this can you write an abstract and include what you are trying to produce. I'm not sure if I want to use up all my brain cells for the night yet by reading this whole thing.

Abstract
A discussion on the general methodology of extracting materials from living samples with particular focus on the extraction of psychoactive drugs from various plant matter by nonchemists. Included is a good deal of safety information and some discussion on the reasons extractions work. And now an abstract because the subject and introduction weren't enough.

I read this stuff so much but I just cant pull the trigger and try a mescaline extraction. Im gonna have to settle for just a San Pedro Tea again for the Fourth of July. I wish someone would make a video on mescaline extraction using homemade chemistry equipment and stuff ou can get from Lowes. I need a visual learning experience. Shit, I wish could get Mr. E Duck to come over for some lessons on mescaline extraction, maybe in a better more trusting world.,, I will have to wait for Fall so I can use my garage as a extraction lab... too hot now.

i will update eventually - im running 200g batches. i used citric acid instead of acetic in my ab because i had a lot on hand from canning stuff. my non polar in that one is completely clear, no yellow at all which was a little surprising to me, i put the naptha in when it was still warm from the lye and after it cooled there were already crystals in my nonpolar layer- so it looks good so far.
in my stb batches the nonpolar layer is cloudy yellow, i expected the yellow but not cloudiness. like i said though i havent combined all my pulls so we'll see how it all turns out.

Oh hell yeah sure! Of course he will be delighted to go typing another paragraph or two because you are actually lazy enough to not want to read. I cannot believe I read this. Yup, save them precious brain cells you are not using for in case you need them in future!

I have never found a home method of extraction that yields a solid let alone anything more pure. High test isopropyl or methanol will give you a very potent yellow gum, defatting seems only to complicate matters with no better results. I have not kept up with current ideas though, there very well may be a breakthrough .

Down here in S.A you can buy psilocybin drops. Nasty yellow liquid. Two drops feel like a gram of cubes, four is getting closer to a propa dose. 6 Will see you right. Vile taste seriously. Blegh. I would rather just eat a handful of shrooms...

Holy shit Duck! Very impressive .... even though you lost me after the first paragraph. You may as well have typed that out in Japanese.

lol, i went to american public schools and basically feel the same as you.. i do understand a little bit of it, a very little bit, but to be fair to both american and canadian public schools, mreduck is one smart cookie regardless of one's schooling..

It's genetic. I really believe people are born with a certain capacity for things. Some people are great in school, some people are good with their hands, some people are very artistic, some athletic, etc. I couldn't hold Mr Ducks jock when it comes to science, or draw a stick-man to save my life ...... but give me a hockey stick and a puck and I'll dazzle you. lol

completely agree st0w.. the only problem i have is that at 42, i'm still looking for what i'm good at in this world, i'm about to give up hope here pretty soon..

And at 39 my skill is completely useless to me now. I may as well be talented at basket weaving.
Racer, I think it's less about being great at something, and more about enjoying what it is you're doing. I'm not the worlds best weed farmer, but I enjoy the shit out of it so that's my thing. I'm sure you can say the same. Besides, you're a heck of a nice guy and in my book that's every bit as impressive as any talent.
