Before my experience I was trying to approach the whole thing in a very controlled and scientific way and I was writing the report during the experience. How little did I know the scientific approach was going right out the window. I am a young guy, 20 years old and I like to do a lot of meditation and I have previous experience with psychedelics; mushrooms and LSD both 1 time. I also took MDMA once. I've also been smoking weed for 7 years.

A while ago I was talking to a friend about legal psychedelics and he told me about a seed called morning glory or Ipomoea Violacea. He told me that I can buy these seeds and I eat like a hundred of them or so and I will trip. This got me very fascinated and I was very curious to try it out. I buy 4 packs of heavenly blue morning glory seeds. Each packet has 1.5 grams of seeds which equals 6 grams.

I am going to be using the Cold Water Extraction method. I took a cup and added 2 tablespoons of lemon juice to lower the pH. I filled about a quarter of the cup with cold water and filled the rest with the mint tea that I made earlier, also cold in the fridge, which has the acetaldehyde in it. I also used purified water not tap water, remembering the chlorine breaks down LSA. I took this lemon juice and mint tea into my bathroom and shut the door so no light would go in. I lit a small candle so I can see. Lights were always off. I opened all 4 packets of the seeds and put them in a coffee grinder and grinded then up extremely fine. It was more fine than powdered sugar. Then I put the seed powder into the cup and wrapped the glass cup in aluminum foil to prevent any light from getting in. OK, so now it's done. All I have to do now is leave it overnight so the LSA will extract and hopefully turn into LSH with the mint tea. So I know I can't just put it in the fridge because if my dad comes home he's gonna be like WTF is this!!! So being as smart as I am I carefully put it in the AC vent and left the AC on at night to keep it cold. The seeds were in there for exactly 23 hours if that helps.

I woke up and was in a very positive state of mind. Like the world is very nice and had positive thoughts and etc. Etc. Etc. I had to wait until my dad goes to work so I can drink the tea. When he left I removed the tea from the vent and I closed the blinds to reduce light and I took my coffee machine and put a new filter in it and filtered the tea into another cup. I realized that the powder was so fine that some of it actually went through the filter! This will effect my trip later. So now it was ready for consumption. I went to my computer and put on a psytrance mix and was ready to go. This was on an empty stomach, no food, nothing.

10:15am Initial ingestion.

10:21 Finish ingestion: I just drank it like a regular cup of tea while listening to music. I started to make my morning breakfast after this.

10:42 Slight change in perception: when I was making my hash brown I looked at it and started feeling kind of fuzzy.

10:48 Noticeable effects (onset): by now I'm like why am I even making breakfast? lol.

10:54 Coming up and mild nausea.

10:58 Time slows and increased nausea.

11:00 Increased change in perception. By now I put my breakfast aside and went to my room and sat down.

11:05 Severe nausea, omg!

11:08 Throw up: I vomited into the toilet and I was scared that I might die or have to go to the hospital, but in reality I was completely fine. It was all part of the trip. This is where I guess my filter was ineffective and I threw up.

11:14 Confusion and mild anxiety. I was scared of what will happen because I just threw up.

11:20 Severe time slow, also eating breakfast, listening to music, salt tastes funny. I was like hey I might as well eat my breakfast now since I threw up my tea.

11:25 Unable to eat anymore. The eggs tasted like styrofoam and the salt on the hash brown was so nasty I couldn’t eat it. I thought I threw up everything and I wouldn’t get any effects so I went back to my room, but this is where the effects really hit me.

10:30 "Mood lift, euphoria, feeling of insight, increase sensual and aesthetic appreciation, feeling interested in things one normally ignores, increase time slow, engaged with the world" I took the effects right off the web site. I felt very peaceful and connected to the outside world. I went back to my computer.

11:37 Music very loud. I heard the music get louder and louder.

11:40 Mild open- and closed-eye visuals, walls moving. I closed my eyes and saw a few patterns and shapes nothing special walls were moving a little.

11:41 Turn paper to other side, increased mood lift and euphoria, increased giggling and laughing, pupil dilation.

11:45 Increased connection to the world. I looked out the window and the outside world looked very peaceful.

11:48 Even more increased mood lift and euphoria, mild to severe giggling and laughing, increased open and closed eye visuals. By now the effects are definitely kicking in.

11:54 Increased connection to music. I was really feeling the vibes.

11:56 Increased connection to self. I saw myself in a whole new way.

12:03PM Music increase in awesomeness. This psytrance mix is tripping me out.

12:04 Strange thoughts, irrational body movements, increased feelings of insight, unable to notice all the effects until now, strange thoughts, more giggling and laughing, more mood lift euphoria. The strange body movements was when I got up I felt heavy kind of heavy, like I was drunk. I had difficulty walking and I grabbed hold of a chair and felt tingling in my stomach. At this point I started cracking up for like 5 minutes!

12:16 Music sounds more different.

12:18 Brighter and increase in closed eye visuals.

12:19 Increase in general effects.

12:21 Increase in feelings i.e touch, feel fingers more.

12:26 Unable to believe these morning glory seeds actually worked. By now I'm sure that the acetaldehyde in the mint tea actually worked and turned the LSA into LSH because these effects are actually way stronger than my previous acid trip. This was definitely more visual.

12:27 Closed eye visuals: colors kaleidoscopic patterns, bright visions, fractals. At this point I closed my eyes and saw beautiful fractals revolving around me. This was way more intense than my acid trip. Very bright and beautiful.

12:38 Time is severely slowing down, general change in consciousness, unintended writing.

12:48 Deeper understanding of psyche, path in life, and self. The deeper understanding was strange. When I meditate I see some lines and I understood that in between those line lies all the colors in the color spectrum. Very deep insight.

12:50 Switching to new paper, irrational thoughts, increase in smell, incense smell better. Things become very irrational.

12:54 Deeper connection to self.

12:55 More closed eye visuals.

1:03 Moments of intense hysteria.

1:09 Even more closed eye visuals.

1:10 Pictures seem more funny.

1:14 Feel one with music. I was moving my body along with the music.

1:22 Not very interested in writing anymore.

1:33 Trying to make a sandwich. Ha ha.

1:39 Difficulty making sandwich, difficulty following rational processes. Making a sandwich is like rocket science, lol.

1:43 Attempting to eat sandwich.

1:47 Unable to maintain rational thought process.

1:48 More closed eye visuals.

1:49 Laughing at sandwich, ha ha!

1:51 Strange perception of images.

1:52 Intense moments of hysteria.

1:53 Feeling as I am too irrational to continue this trip report.

1:57 Closed eye visuals, closed my eyes as I was writing this and paper burst into colors.

2:00 Increased connection to self.

2:05 Mood lift, euphoria.

2:07 Strange perception of music.

2:10 Music is getting louder.

2:11 Feelings of insight.

2:13 Increased giggling and laughing.

2:14 Irrational thoughts and ideas. Unable to continue trip report due to irrational actions. Annoyed by trip report. If you cut out a star out of a piece of paper and you shine a flashlight through it, there is a star on the wall. I was the star on the wall and was looking into the light. They guided my actions. Every time I pass through a red square in the fractal I would write down “mood lift, euphoria” on the paper. Like the fractals were guiding my actions. It's like a coded message
I was the star on the wall and was looking into the light. They guided my actions. Every time I pass through a red square in the fractal I would write down “mood lift, euphoria” on the paper. Like the fractals were guiding my actions. It's like a coded message
and things keep repeating itself.

I grabbed a chair and took it into the bathroom and closed the door so no light would get in and I started to meditate. After like 5 minutes the visuals just got more brighter and complex. All sorts of strange shapes and geometric patterns. It was really mind blowing how all this is actually happening. Then I thought about Terrence Mckenna saying there is no way your mind can project these types of images, so if its not coming from your mind it has to be coming from outer space, and that’s pretty much right.

I really got an understanding of the inner workings of my mind. Like that one picture where there is a DMT pipe and butterflies are coming out and the mind is a bunch of gears rotating around. What happened was I heard a woman's voice, I don’t know what she said but as soon as I realized it I was in the back of my mind and I had the feeling of God's presence, and that God is the one that’s projecting all these fractals and guiding my actions. At this point the trip got way too intense and I felt like I was going to pass out. So I had to stop and get out of the bathroom and put the chair back. I meditated for about 45 minutes

When I came out I was tripping hard. I layed down in my bed unable to move and I look at the ceiling. My ceiling is like popcorn ceiling and I focused in a point and around it was moving up and down and side to side. I closed my eyes and saw very intense fractals and all sorts of colorful shapes that were multidimensional. I feel like I was about to pass out so I went to the kitchen to make a cup of coffee. As I was walking in my house I closed my eyes and I saw like a blue and pink road that I was walking on and I saw grass that was tall and squiggly and on my left I was a huge tree where each leaf on the tree was a different color. And in between the pieces of grass was mushrooms growing about as tall as me, a little shorter, with colorful caps. I felt like I was walking down the squiggly blue and pink road and when I opened my eyes I noticed I was walking all sideways. It was an intense visual hallucination nonetheless. Eventually I got to my kitchen. And I started making my coffee. When I finished I poured the white milk into the black coffee and it was mad trippy.

I went back to my computer and listened to more music. Then I noticed my trip report is still sitting on the table. So I was like hey maybe the coffee might change my trip.

3:48 Initial ingestion of 1 cup of coffee

3:57 Finished coffee

4:07 Thoughts become more clear.

4:11 Increase in energy, mild mood lift, mild euphoria.

4:13 Closed eye visuals become more clear.

4:20 General increase in effects, increased energy, reduced fatigue, I'm writing faster.

So pretty much I wrote reduced fatigue. That was probably not fatigue. When I sat down I came out of the “DMT sensorium”. My effects from meditation are over now and I'm back to my regular trip.
