12 - 14 Hour Vision-Quest
Greetings friends. Over the past few months i've been on this site reading up on the tinctures such as green dragon and whatnot (thank you Master Wu and Dragonrider.) After making my first batch i was hooked. Tinctures cause much more pleasurable effects, and are way more efficient than smoking. After finishing this delicious tincture (i made the classic master Wu recipe using everclear and an 8th of dank) an idea occured to me. Why just use cannabis in a tincture, why not try using other psychoactive herbs? So, after a bit of experimenting i came up with a very, very good recipe. Please note that this recipe i am about to show you is extremely potent, and is not for the weak. Acting like a big shot will send you to wherever Shamanic Hippy went for a few years...
Before I tell you the recipe I'd like to tell you about the effects of the vision-quest.
Ok, so here goes.
**Please note i fasted for an hour before taking the 2 dropperfulls of tincture. I am 6'1 and 180 pounds. I take no pills and don't consume caffeine.**
Chances are that you will feel quite different, having a dramatically altered mind. You will also have perceptual changes, like increased pattern recognition in things like the carpet, the walls, or anything really. You will have closed eye visuals, which are enhanced by good music. You might have mild open eye visuals if you consumed a high dose. Usually, even at lower doses, colors will look more vibrant, smells will seem more powerful, slight halos will appear around light sources, everything will seem crisper and brighter. Your pupils will dilate. You might feel some strange sensations, your whole body will tingle. Your hands will probably feel clumsy and clammy at first. This goes away within the first hour. After ingesting this tincture you will learn a lot about yourself... and a lot about your personal connection with nature. It's best to be outdoors during the day while taking this.
Ingredients: Everclear 190, 3.5 - 5 grams of dank, 400 Morning glory seeds (preferably Heavenly Blues), 5 grams of lavender, 1 gram of Salvia Divinorum, 1 gram of catnip, .5 gram of nutmeg, 3 grams valerian root, 1 tbsp of honey.
You will need: A candy thermometer, measuring cups, cheesecloth, and a little bit of patience
Preparation:
Step 1: (Step 1 is basically Master Wu's recipe) Take your 3.5 - 5 grams of cannabis and grind it up. Place on a sheet of tinfoil. Preheat oven to 325 degrees Fahrenheit. Place sheet of cannabis in the oven for 5 minutes. Afterwards take your cannabis, 5 grams of lavender, and 3 grams of valerian root and place in a mason jar. Measure out 1/2 cup of everclear and add to mason jar. Cap the jar and shake shake shake! Then you must create a water bath so you get a pot of water and bring to it to a boil. Then UNCAP THE JAR, I REPEAT, UNCAP THE JAR!!! Place the mason jar inside the boiling water. Stick the candy thermometer inside the mason jar, not the pot of water. You want to let it heat up to 170 degrees Fahrenheit. Keep the alcohol this hot for 30 minutes. Afterwards you will notice significant amount of everclear probably evaporated. Let cool, then cap the bottle. Keep this bottle aside in a dark place. Do not strain this mixture yet and take care to shake it 2 or 3 times a day.
Step 2: Get your morning glory seeds out now. If using treated seeds wash thoroughly in cold water first. Dry seeds. Do NOT use a blowdryer! Dry them well with paper towels. Once they are dry, grind them pretty thoroughly in a coffee grinder, but not to the point of a fine powder. You want the black seed hulls to remain a little coarse. Place them in another, separate mason jar. Then take your Salvia, grind it up, and put it in the mason jar. Lastly take your nutmeg, crush it, and put it in the tincture. Add 1/2 cup of everclear into the mason jar. Add honey. Cap this jar and shake 2 or 3 times a day. Store it in a dark place.
Step 3: Wait a week. Take care to shake both containers as much as possible and remember to keep them out of the light.
Step 4: Filter your cannabis/lavender/valerian root through a cheesecloth and into a big open bowl, squeeze every last drop out. Get another cheesecloth and do the same with your other tincture. Once the two are combined they should look very murky and brown. Leave this bowl open and below a fan for at least a day. This will reduce mixture significantly and make it much much more potent.
Step 5: Bottle tincture and store in the darkness.
Step 6: Enjoy! Here are the fruits of your labor!!!
TAKE NO MORE THAN TWO DROPPERFULLS!!!
... But if you do, tell me how it goes, cause you got more balls than i do haha
