DO NOT DO THESE PROCESSES THIS CAN BE HAZARDOUS TO YOUR HEALTH DUE TO THE
TYPE OF ALKALOIDS INVOLVED!!!!

EXTRACTION OF DANTRA ALKALOIDS via an oil solvent. (from JIMSONWEED)

STEP #1
Ground seeds into a fine pulp, used 1500 mg seed. (Approx. 200 seeds.)

STEP #2
Placed 1500 mg seed pulp into test tube.

STEP #3
Poured enough olive oil into tube to make the entire contents of test tube = 7 ml (this includes seed pulp and olive oil.)

STEP #4
Shook contents of test tube.

STEP #5
Let sit for 2 days.

Note: after shaking the mixture for just a few seconds the oil became
cloudy and after shaking 3 more times and letting sit for 20 min. the oil
darkened considerably.

Notes on the next day-day1

After the extract sits over night the seed pulp settles to the bottom of the oil, the oil will look clear, but there seems to be another oil layer
settled on top of the seed pulp which is dark brown in color, it is possible that this layer of liquid could be the water content of the seeds or it could be an oil contained in the seeds with a density greater than the olive oil used for this extraction, when shaken these two liquids mix and will color the olive oil a darkish brown color.

Notes on day 2:

The olive oil had a darkish color to it, the lower liquid layer was not as
evident as it was the day before but was still there.

STEP #6

Used vacuum filtration to filter the oil from the seed pulp. (you will need
to apply a vacuum or this step will take forever!)

STEP #7

Washed test tube with 2ml fresh olive oil and vacuum filtered this through the seed pulp.

Note: end product = 6ml
It was a cloudy yellow color.

Use of this product:

Applied 2ml of oil to any area where there is a high concentration blood
vessel near the surface of the skin. (In the male this could be the penis
and in the female the vagina) noticeable effects began in about 25 min., peaking in approx. 2 hours after application. There was slight
disorientation, slight visual hallucinations, and slight audio
hallucination. After 9 1/2 hours there is still noticeable effects with some visual effects still noticeable, disorientation has cleared up but a
noticeable detachment to reality is still event, during this time there was
a noticeable dryness of the mouth but not really uncomfortable.

Day after application.

There were some slight effects the fallowing day for approx. 6 hours then
subsided.


EXTRACTION OF DANTRA (JIMSON WEED) via. METHYL ALCOHOL.

STEP #1
Ground 2 grams dantra seed in mortar and pestle.

STEP #2
Placed seed pulp into test tube.

STEP #3
Used pipette to place 6mL methyl alcohol into test tube with seed pulp. (the entire contents of the test tube should be 9mL this includes alcohol and seed pulp.)

STEP #4
Shook very well.

Note 1: methanol soon turned a clear yellowish color.

Note 2: end of day one there was only a slight darkening of the alcohol.

Note 3: end of day two there was no change in the appearance of the
methanol.

STEP #4
Filtered methanol from seed pulp. (gravity filtration will work fine for
this).

STEP #5
Poured 2 mL. methanol through seed pulp to wash any remaining alkaloids from the seeds.

NOTE: Upon evaporation of methanol I was left with a golden yellow
crystalline powder, (be sure to evaporate methanol to complete dryness it is very poisonous). The total product of this extraction is 80 mg.

USAGE:
10:40 pm Ingested 8mg. Extract orally (taste was slightly bitter but mildly
so).

11:05 pm can feel the onset of alkaloids. (onset of effects are consistent
with the use of the topical preparation prepared with olive oil).

11:30 pm delirious effects are increasingly noticeable, very slight visual
effects becoming noticeable also slight dryness of mouth with no pupil
dilation present.

1:15 am effect of alkaloid has leveled out with only a slight dry mouth,
slight disorientation, slight visual effects, and pupils slightly dilated
but reactive.

7:30 am effects only slightly noticeable put still present, vision has
almost returned to normal.

11:30 am effects have subsided.

DOSAGE CALCULATION (USE AT OWN RISK)

8mg......................mild effects.

10mg....................mild to moderate effects.

12mg....................moderate effects.

14mg....................moderate to heavy effects.

16mg....................heavy to dangerous effects.
