I see no extraction teks using leaves of P.Viridis or P.Alba as starting material for DMT.
Is this because no one has any leaves or just because rootbark or bark is eaier to get in quantities and maybe cheaper?
I have some P.Viridis/Alba plants and when they drop a leave i collect them in a tyvek envelope.
When i have gathered some volume of leaves i would like to try an extreaction but i have no idea what tek or method witch is best.
Someone know what tek/method is best with this as DMT source material?

Thanks,

All our tests have shown P. alba to be devoid of DMT, interestingly enough....

As for why there are no teks, simply because i think not many people have enough viridis to be worth to do an extraction, but any tek should work for viridis too I think... Maybe you're gonna have to do some extra re-x clean up at the end, but anyways I'd try whatever extraction you're familiar with.

Personally I'd go for a/b with limonene pulls and FASI salting... What tek are you most familiar with?

Iso tek for chaliponga/leaf sources.

I am new to extracting things.
I have grown ethno plants a long time and mushrooms too but DMT and extractions i have never done yet.
I tried once with some grass but it didn't form 2 layers as the tek said so i aborted the whole thing.
It was a long time ago.
Now i am determined to try a lot of different extractions.

My Psychotria was bought as Viridis but i have read many vendors sell Alba as Viridis.
I also read that one cant trust the sign some say of Alba, that the leaf doesn't go all the way into the stem.
So hopefully i have P.Viridis, but i cant tell for sure.
I thought P.Alba also contained DMT, just in a little smaller amount.
If not, how can they use P.Alba in Ayahuasca?

Post some detailed pictures, maybe some of our experts can help identifying them.

As for alba having DMT, I can't say much about it except that we tested a few alba samples and none of them contained DMT, which was quite surprising for all of us.

Pure caapi brews are by themselves active in a way, so even if they add a non-dmt-containing plant, it can still be active in one way or another. Maybe that's why?

Regarding teks, check our extraction teks section in the wiki as well as the FAQ, and see what tek you feel more comfortable with, and let us know.. Once you start extracting, remember not to throw anythign away, because even if something doesn't go as expected it can always be recovered.
