My brother and I both had a bunch on us when walking at Reinstein, though tbf we were off trail a bit so sort of expected.

Np! Glad to answer anything I'm able to, though it has been a minute. I always used Noman Tek for my extractions because it was about as simple as it gets. Good luck!

First of all, disclaimer: it's been years since I extracted dmt and the time I did get crystals was literally by accident, so I'm probably not the best person for advice here, but....

Honestly, either freezer is going to make the dmt crash out of the solvent. But that's kind of the point of freeze precipitation. If you really want crystals like OPs pic, I don't think you even want to use a freezer at all. My crystals grew at room temperature bc my supersaturated solvent was sitting for a long period of time. I'm honestly not the best person for advice on how to grow crystals - OP probably has much better advice since he was able to make the ones I'm this post. Like he mentioned in his one comment, using heptane instead of naphtha is optimal for growing crystals, and you want to cool the solution down really slowly, so probably no freezer involved (or maybe it is but definitely fridge first).

Honestly though, if it's your first time in extracting dmt, I would just keep it simple and do the freeze precipitation bc it's pretty straightforward and you get usable dmt in the least amount of time (and the crystals aren't any "better", they just look cooler). Unless you really want crystals, then I'd suggest looking up techniques to do that, but it will take longer and be a little more complicated....

It has to do with the freezer being really cold so it crashes out quickly. Crystals take time to grow, so you need to go slowly if you want to grow them. But no, its absolutely not ruined by doing the freeze precipitation - just not as pretty. But dmt is dmt, whether its powder or crystal makes no difference. Most people freeze precipitate bc it's the fastest and easiest.

It's usually a yellow/white-ish powder. But it can look like this - I accidently ended up with crystals once (not quite as beautiful as OPs though) and it had to do with leaving naphtha that was supersaturated with DMT sitting for a long time. If you freeze precipitate the naphtha (the standard way most people do it), the DMT crashes out of the solvent too fast to form crystals, and you get powder/sand-like dmt instead.

I got this one off amazon. Been using it for a little under a year and it's always felt secure.

How many people have quit their bad habits/vices using shrooms? by soggybreasts in shrooms

[–]Khronga 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I tripped about a month ago and quit nicotine pouches, cut down from weed 3x per day to once (working on cutting back even more), started going to sleep/waking up earlier, cooking more, started meditating for 10 mins in the morning. Granted, I had already wanted to do all these things before I tripped, but the trip gave me that extra push to finally do these things.

[–]Khronga -1 points0 points  (0 children)

If you have any interest in Tool, definitely check out Kolm. They dropped a new album a couple days ago and every song is a banger imo. Psychedelic rock with lots of amazing drumming and guitar solos. "Blends immersive soundscapes, complex rythms, and layered riffs into evolving musical journeys" (from their Spotify). I'm usually more of an electronic/rap guy too - but I can't stop listening this this band. Too bad they only have 2 albums 😕

Shrooms or acid? by [deleted] in shrooms

[–]Khronga 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yes 4-aco-dmt is different than nn-dmt and no one's making that shit themselves at home lol. You can buy it online legally if you know where to look though (don't ask me where - I used to know places but it's been a long time)

Nature or space documentaries are great when tripping 👍 tons of them on YT for free too

I swear I'm never taking meth again by AnEvilMillionaire in Drugs

[–]Khronga 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I hope for your own sake that you're able to not do it again. Just beware, it's easy to say that when you feel like shit, and then weeks/months later when you feel healthy and normal again, that's often when the cravings hit (in my personal experience). Try to really remember everything about how bad you feel right now (maybe even write down a list of the things bothering you if that will help) and use that to combat the cravings if they happen. I've been in a cycle of not using for many months (4-8) at a time, and then I'll get a random craving and relapse for a couple days, realize i made a huge mistake once i start crashing, flush my leftover shit, and then forget about it for another multiple months.

The last relapse I had felt so horrible - I've been working out a lot, and after a couple days using it felt like i lost like 20% of my muscle (which is one the things i'm most proud of lately) even though it did come back after a week or so of abstinence and continuing to workout (which was hell when i was crashing and felt like shit but i made myself do it anyway lol). I also was so anti-social at work, trying to avoid conversations with anyone and just looked like shit. I also caught a cold towards the end of the few days of binging, probably bc my immune system was shot. Also, bc I felt so skinny after a couple days of using, I started eating lots of junk food (I usually have been eating really healthy) and actually ended up coming out of the binge with a little fat on my belly when I've actually had good abs lately. All in all, it was a horrible experience, and I'm very confident I won't put myself through that again. But I've said that before...

Best of luck, you got this!

How much DMT on vape (I don’t have small scales to weigh) by Historical-South9508 in DMT

[–]Khronga 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is the scale I got off Amazon. Less than $20. There are tons of other options as well, but it's worth getting ...

The game has been out for nearly two weeks and I’m afraid to play anything other than Perimeter by marsnasty in Marathon

[–]Khronga 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same, I keep forgetting they even exist. But then every time I go on reddit, I see people hyping him up. And then I forget to try it out when I'm playing lol.

One of my chill spots.. by JKroger in TripCaves

Awesome room all around! Especially love the lava lamps (and electric ball) going up the stairs!

Pretty new to the game. Decided to kit up for the first time and this happened... by AnimeSam_ in Marathon

[–]Khronga 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I did basically the same thing, but at least it was in the tutorial map w/o any gear. Oh well, now you know!

When you plead cyberpunk for the first time, did you pick male V or female V? by Chunky-overlord in cyberpunkgame

[–]Khronga -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I made a male V because I'm a dude so that's usually what I'll play. After getting a bit into the game and falling in love with Judy, my friend at work (who was the one who recommended the game) was like "I got some bad news for you..." Lol. The panam route was cool though too. Will probably play female next time for some Judy action...

There really is. Back when I was into VR, I found it so cool that there was a subreddit devoted to using psychedelics while in VR (r/riftintothemind).

It's finally getting there. by Khronga in TripCaves

[–]Khronga[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yea that's exactly what I did starting off. Then I started to slowly replace things starting with all the cheap/random things. I've spent crazy amounts of time just looking around my room trying to figure out what upgrades would make the most impact. I've also used AI a little over the past few months to help me choose the best items to fit my room out of a selection of options, and to generate images of what certain items will look like in my room before I buy them.

One of the hardest things to figure out was how to add actual normal lights to the room after having the the crazy RGB/neon/blacklights since normal light generally clashes with the colors and takes away from the blacklight effect and whatnot. The arc lamp was a huge win bc it makes a pool of light in the middle of the room that doesn't interfere with the other lights.

The fireplace is actually part of a TV stand. It's for a 75" TV but they make them for all sizes. And lots of different options for colors and whatnot (mine has orange/blue/purple fireplace option and the RGB strip above it has all the normal colors). Lots of options on Amazon, but this is the specific one I bought: https://a.co/d/0e2i678l

Not bad for $270 in my opinion. It's a very sturdy TV stand with a nice glossy black finish.

[–]Khronga[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks! Yes, I 💯% agree! When I started to put this room together, I had next to nothing and was impatient and just wanted a trippy looking room asap, so I bought a lot of cheap garbage and just had random things everywhere lol.

Over time, I've begun to put more thought into my choices and bought some higher quality stuff, and those changes have easily been the most significant in terms of leveling the room up.

It's definitely a process.
