First Time Pedro

How do I boil the cactus? The tek didn't mention, but do I cut the core out, skin? Or just boil it all? I heard the core is what gets you sick.. You guys have no idea how excited I am to do this. Hope I get a good trip

Yes, you cut the core out. You also want to dry out the cactus before starting (an oven on low works).

Brewing the tea as we speak. 2ft of 2-3in diameter pedro. I'm hoping to have a good time! First time doing any hallucinogen, got to tell you...I am pretty excited.

Fuck fuck fuck. I left the house to go to the store and left the tea to be tended by my dad..told him to stir it etc. I think he fuckin left it to burn like the dumb ass stoner he is. fuck. Hopefully it didnt. It came out darker than I expected and that's why I say he burned it. Kinda smelt funny in the house when I came in too. Meh, still going to swig it and hope for the best.

Didn't do it once again. I was tooooo tired. But since i think its burned and I don't want to drink it, I think I am going to try to reduce it to the tar balls and just try that as an experiment.

Mescaline is pretty heat resistant so I wouldn't worry too much.

Aight, maybe I will just pound it then. Fuck it, I came this far right. I was bummed I didn't do it over the weekend. Went to Crtystal Lake in the Angeles National Forest. I saw so many cool things. A millipede, freaky spiders and grey squirrels with HUGE bushy tails, I wish I could have enjoyed this all with the pedro. I'll pro just drink it next fri. Question? Is it supposed to have a salty/chemical taste? OMG it was terrible.

I've always taken mescaline as a powder either from synthesis or extraction so I can't say firsthand, but everything I've heard or read about the teas is that they taste foul (hence why I've always stuck with the powders).

Do you happen to have a reliable tek for extraction? I want to do the powder next time.

I will probably never drink san pedro again..it tastes so fckn bad..and since its kind of slimy it makes me wanna throw up while i drink it.

Gonna try the extraction soon, although i read that extractions might not be as potent as the brew..any comments on this?

Have a nice trip mate, you just stumbled on the best psychedelic

Yea, I hear the tea is a different experience...thats why I want to try that first. Is the tea supposed to freeze when in the freezer? Cause mine did and I was thinking, could you not just swallow frozen tea balls?

I posted an extraction tek earlier in the thread.

Thats actually a good idea..i need to come up with some method of taking the tea without actually driking it..capsules does not sound such a good idea since you would need quite a few..

Trust me, driking will only ruin it for u, its some foulness u dont want to experience

My bad...thanks. Oh, what the herb does to the brain sometimes haha.
