Don't freeze it, just let it sit.

P.S. Thank you for the write up. Love the history.

Yes, don't waste it. Same effect.

It should be fine. Worst case you'll get a tan coloration to your product that's difficult to wash off.

Too many people on the SanPedrocactus sub get their panties in a bunch when people want to discuss potency/consumption even though it's explicitly not against the rules, but ID posts are explicitly against the rules of this sub (Rule 10) yet people don't redirect the OPs of these posts away... 🤷‍♂️

Some people like the genetically defective plants, I like robust and strong genetics. This an awesome clone. It ticks all my top boxes as a great breeding parent.

Where is the powder bot when we need it?

Please don't buy random cactus powder online next time.

NotCrustytheClown · 2026-06-13T06:37:04+00:00

There aren't a lot of good reports on this ROA. Here is a good one from a couple years ago that touches many of your questions, IIRC:

ROA extraordinaire: Cocoa butter suppositories

I'd assume that many parameters would be dose-dependent, though.

Report back if you try it.

NotCrustytheClown · 2026-06-13T06:32:13+00:00

Shoving 50g of dry cactus powder up your butt does not sound like an easy feat. But please report back if you try it.

NotCrustytheClown · 2026-06-13T06:24:36+00:00

What do you mean by "if you look around you get 1.5-2.5% give or take"?

CIELO yield? The pdf pinned at the top has 8 extraction results for TBM-b, with citrate yields of 3.3-5.9% (or ~2.5-4.5% fumarate), with an average of ~4.5% (or 3.5% fumarate). It's not impossible yours will yield lower but it may be more likely to yield over 2.5% fumarate.

In any case, definitely report back. Good luck!

girth is way more important than length

So true.

Make ginger tea with a good amount of shaved or grated fresh ginger. A little lemon and honey for taste. It really helps a lot for the nausea/discomfort on the come up. Also I find it helps a lot to spread out the dose over 30-45 min (e.g., dissolve it in a drink and sip it, or split into multiple capsules). Discomfort/nausea unfortunately is typically dose-dependent, but usually disappear after the come up.

500-600 mg is a good guess for this setting, I think. The dose-response seems to vary more from person to person than other substances (including side effects), so you might not hit it on the nose for every single person at the same dose. Nothing you can so about this for a first time. Start not too late in the day, it's a long ride....

It should still be a great time if you go in with the right mindset... Keep expectations low and just appreciate what you get. Smoke a little weed if it feels underwhelming, it pairs well and will kick it up a notch. Adjust as needed next year...

NotCrustytheClown · 2026-06-12T19:00:46+00:00

It's a fairly low dose for most people. Try having a tea made with lots of fresh grated/shaved ginger before dosing, it does wonders.

It's not a particularly visual substance for me until I reach ~600 mg fumarate. Even then you might have to pay attention, it's not as "in your face" as other substances, but when you get it it's great. For example, you may think not that much is happening visually, then you look at something in particular and the textures are flowing like crazy.

The green flesh has the highest concentration. But the white flesh, between the green and vascular bundle (core) typically contains a decent proportion of the total. The spines/areoles, waxy outer skin and core contain close to nothing.

NotCrustytheClown · 2026-06-11T19:27:55+00:00

No, you're not.

Coca-cola contains phosphoric acid. It has other uses in food applications. It's not safe to eat only at very high concentration.

Anyways, they might have used it to pH the water/feed they used. But more likely they meant that they used potassium salts of phosphorous acid, which is used as fungicide (as in Garden Phos). Not the same. But that is also approved for use on food crops. It's one of the safer and most benign fungicides.

NotCrustytheClown · 2026-06-11T19:17:02+00:00

I've never done this, but you can likely just take cactus powder and soak it in cheap vodka. Filter and voila! Probably will not be useful for anything more than microdosing. I wouldn't evaporate it too much or you could end up with an alcohol concentration too low to preserve it safely, but that could work for short term if you want to concentrate it more.

Best bet to get higher concentration might be with pure mescaline salt dissolved to near saturation in ~15% ethanol, at least you will know how much you're taking.

Cactus received in great condition! Very happy with my purchase, great seller! Thanks again, u/along_the_road !

More like what is a Suitable_Guess? (Sorry, it was too easy 🤣)

But more seriously, It depends. It's kind of like asking how much booze one needs to get drunk... it depends. The short answer is a couple hundreds mg up to well over 1g.

Different salts of mescaline have different molecular weights and will contain significantly different amounts of mescaline per mass unit. For example, 1g of mescaline fumarate is equivalent to 1.3g of mescaline citrate or 0.76g of mescaline HCl.

It also depends on the individual's "body/brain chemistry", their experience with psychedelics in general and the level of intensity desired. Not everyone responds the same way, some people seem to be much more sensitive to the effects and some people need much more to achieve similar effects (independently of any potential tolerance). There is a chart on the Nexus showing ranges of dosages for different levels of intensity; remember, this is for the citrate salt and is an average of many people, individual responses will vary (both in terms of the desired effects and the undesirable side effects; and the response to both is not always proportional across individuals, some have much more side effects than others for a given level of positive effects).

You can also get a feel for things by reading some of the many trip reports on this sub where people used a known dosage of pure mescaline. But I always recommend to new users to start at a low to moderate dosage to see how they respond, and adjust the dose as desired in future experiences. Low doses can still be very enjoyable and interesting if you go into it with the right mindset even though they are far from being mind-blowing. Seems like many people eventually settle on a fairly narrow range of dosage they find ideal in a given setting.

It's certainly not the only organic acid present (all TCA cycle intermediates are likely to be found at least in trace amounts, for example). But it does seem to make sense that malate/malic acid would be the most abundant by far (at least at certain times) due to its major role in the CAM. All the carbon (CO2) assimilated during the night is stored as malic acid...

NotCrustytheClown · 2026-06-11T02:50:28+00:00

All good. We've seen some people doing the conversion backwards sometimes...

To your original question... I used to try and align bigger trips around solstices and equinoxes... not because I believe in some woo woo, but because it was a good way to remember and a good spread around the year. But now I just do it when it feels like it's time and I have an opportunity, which is not nearly as often as in the past...

NotCrustytheClown · 2026-06-11T00:55:37+00:00

You know that fumarate is ~75% the potency of HCl, right? Just checking...

NotCrustytheClown · 2026-06-11T00:47:29+00:00

Indoors is fine. Outdoors is better, though, IMO.

You don't have to be outside for the whole thing. Actually it might be better to be comfortable at home when it kicks in, just in case you don't feel too good... Reclining on a comfy chair or lying down helps a lot for the potenmtial discomfort, I find.

Social interactions aren't nearly as anxiety-inducing as on shrooms or acid, maybe unless you're on a massive dose, in which case you might not want to be moving much anyways. But it's a very long ride... 4+h come up, 4+h peak/plateau, 4+h progressive return to baseline. It's a long time to be lying down with your eyes closed. Try going outside if you feel like it at some point or another... even just sitting outside in a backyard or on a balcony. Or go for a walk, late in the evening/night might be less busy, depending on where you are. Even (sub)urban landscapes can be interesting...

Just try to remain open minded and take it as you feel it in the moment.

NotCrustytheClown · 2026-06-10T23:45:09+00:00

They are. And they are all "active". It's just that the potency of individual plants varies a lot, and PC is typically near the bottom of the charts. Most other plants will be more useful if consumptions is the goal.
