Can you smoke phalaris aquatica

I've been listening to one and only, Terrence Mckenna on my way home and he was talking about taking 2g of syrian rue seeds and smoking a joint of phalaris grass..

Oneiros Glass Trippy glass for trippy people. I never knew Terence talked about phalaris at all. It's very unlikely that one would be able to achieve psychoactive effects smoking phalaris without first extracting it, the alkaloid content is very low.

Row, row, row your boat, Gently down the stream. Merrily, merrily, merrily, merrily Visual diagram for the administration of dimethyltryptamine Visual diagram for the administration of ayahuasca. Im highly skeptical of this producing much of a trip beyond the obvious effects of smoking harmalas. I would really like a link to this talk. He says that the phalaris he is talking about is seeds that have just been sprouted sort of like wheat grass I dont know about any of this personally.

The phalairs grass I have worked with would not anything if you rolled a little joint out of it. I never tried the sprouts though.. This is some interesting information. I do not understand how is it possible to smoke shrooms.. Side effects: The same side effects and risks as in all hallucinogenics. Nausea and vomiting, that can be very intense, are often occurring side effects, especially of the DMT Harmine- combination.

A diet during the intake is necessary, or else it can come to very unpleasant up to lethal incidents. Extreme caution is advised, especially during the use of a unknown strain. Suppliers: Dried herb und seeds in ethnobotanical stores, life plants in garden centers. Miscellaneous: There is little sense in buying some Phalaris-arundinacea-strains and planting them. Because of its toxic effects on cattle, the alkaloid content of this grass species was lowered by breeding. Most species that are available in the seeds trade are therefore not psychoactive.

This lay around for a period of two weeks. At one point I was about to throw it out, then on a sudden whim wondered what would happed if I smoked the stuff. Accordingly, I redissolved the tar in alcohol and added a pinch of oregano as an inert smoking medium. The alcohol was allowed to evaporate, leaving a very small amount est. This sat around for several days - I had no real expectation that the mixture would be smokably psychoactive.

If it were, I'd have already heard about it, right? Imagine my surprise when, in a very casual set and setting the bedroom, early afternoon , I took one inhalation of this essense and found my mind immediately blasted into a cerebral hurricane of rapidly pulsing white light. The following entries from my journal tell the unfolding story. Yesterday afternoon I smoked a small portion of oregano which had been soaked in about 50 mg Phalaris grass extract dissolved in alcohol and allowed to evaporate.

This was material that R. I can't help but think in terms of McKenna's "ingression of novelty into time. DMT is on of the keys to the imaginal realm, but isn't for everyone. If it becomes commonly available there will be some serious incidents with people being unable to handle it - i. Yet, it could be a catalyst for a quantum leap in human awareness - something our species, not to mention the planet, could use right now. This goes on to talk about some other experiences on DMT Check out the book if you are interested.

Pulverize the grass cuttings as much as you can. You must do this to rupture the cellular structure the plant. A good way is to put the plant material in the freezer overnight, remove the next day, thaw it, put it in the freezer again, and then remove and thaw it again. After two or three such cycles it will usually be mushy and easily minced in a blender. Place the phalaris in the blender when it is frozed and the blender will chop it easier. Now you must add an acid. Just enough to bring the PH down to about 5.

You can use white vinegar, lemon juice, or acetic acid. Check the PH with PH paper, it is usually sold at most drug stores. The acid reacts with the alkaloids in the plant material and converts them into a salt. A good way to facilitate this reaction is to simmer the acidified soup in a slow cooker overnight; leave the lid on, as we don't want any liquid to evaporate. Strain the plant matter through cheesecloth, then through a paper coffee filter. The bulk roughage may now be discarded because the alkaloids we seek have migrated into the aqueous solution.

Add a small percentage of a defatting solvent such as methylene chloride, ether, chloroform, or naphtha. Naptha is easily available in the form of Coleman fuel or lighter fluid.

The reason we do this procedure is to remove the oils and fats which are in the solution - they will migrate into the solvent. Shake up the mixture and put it aside long enough to seperate into two layers, one aqueous, the other solvent.

If you've ever made vinegar and oil salad dressing then you've seen this done. A separatory funnel is useful for this next operation. This is a simple lab tool consisting of a tapered glass container with a tap at the bottom and a stoppered opening at the top.

The two liquids are poured in the top the bottom faucet is closed, of course ; The container is corked and shaken about to mix its contents.

It is then set aside until the fluids seperate into 2 layers. Then a tap is opened to allow the lower stratum to drain into a container.
