    After reading about morning glories, I decided to try a cold-water extraction (yes, I'm very lazy and the idea of flammable unstables that I can't allocate in my house just makes me nauseous). I got about 600 seeds (Plantation brand, Walmart--1.00 per 4.x grams x 6). with.

    I ground the seeds in a coffee grinder I let this soak for about 12 hours in 450 ml of distilled water, shaking every few hours, and then filtered out the gunk with a metal coffee filter--the paper ones weren't cutting it, way to slow.

    Since I was also to lazy to let it dry out and use it as a tincture, I drank a little 151 everclear (and yes, it tastes like crap) to prime my sublingual area. Anyway, I drank the liquid in stages because I was concerned about throwing up. Hasn't happened yet.

    I feel a little weird, although I'm not sure if this is a placebo effect or not. I'm going to go sit in the hottub for awhile and figure out if its real.

    side note: I just giggled somewhat uncontrolably, so, who knows. Anyway...

    Okay, there's definitely something going on. I feel a bit euphoric. My stomach feels a little queasy, but hopefully nothing horrible.

    well, how'd it go? I also want to try this method.

    BTW does Arrowhead water count as "distilled water"?

    Okay, here's the outcome:

    Initial analysis:
    • Definitely a hallucinogen
    • Onset 1-2 hours
    • Peak in 3-4
    • Intense visuals--stronger than, shrooms.
    • Less of a "high", than say, shrooms.
    • Mild nausea--although it would have probably been a lot worse had no food been consumed previously.
    • 10 hour cold water extraction worth the (low) effort
    So, this was definitely interesting. If one is looking to get super "high" then this probably isn't the choice one would want to make. The high is defintely more mild than the visual effects. That said, the visual effects were fascinating, in my opinion.

    I always get bored to fuck reading about those people who talk about "new portals" and other romantic descriptive crap like that. I think it feeds on itself, and people have unrealstic expectations about what is going to happen.

    That said, I did have the impression that the universe had been opened up (or more accurately, been condensed into) into my living room. The living room was still there, It was more my imagination, aided by the brew, that let my mind wander more openly. The most funny thing that happened was watching my self shrink, grow, and melt as I observed myself in the mirror. Watchign the fools and walls undulate was also interesting too.

    Closed eye visuals were great. I could see for the first time how some of that psychedelic art was inspired.

    It started to get a bit late, so I went to bed around 3:00 AM. I usually watch a few episodes of AbFab before I go to be, and so it was interesting to note that the people appeard half-color, have black and white, and also posterized (look it up :).

    All in all, an interesting experience, and one, in my opinion, best served by only being accessed occasionally.

    Final recommendations: EAT A FULL MEAL. There's no fun in throwing up nothing and being sick to your stomach the whole time if you can help it.

    No, arrowhead is not distilled. You can get distilled water for 99 cents per gallon at the drug store. Distilled means its been vaporized, filtered, and ozonated.

    I have a couple more questions since I'll probly be trying this tomorrow (i have the seeds but nothing to prepare them with).

    1) Where do you get a coffee grinder and metal coffee filter?

    2) Do you think it would be as effective with less seeds, like 400?

    3) If I don't have everclear would something like vodka work, how much did you drink?
