My FOAF informant says that he exagerated 'bowlful'. Just a few white needles were sprinkled in a bowl. This amounted to two to three hits. One hit was reported to be definetly hallucinogenic. Two was reported to be transported into another visual dimesion where space, time operated differently. Three was rarely achieved because the pipe was said not be in the users mind by then. Given this, I'm not sure what a hit equals to mg. Any guesses? I'm simply not that expereienced with it. No reports of elves but 'voices' and places with geometric washes of color have been reported with the extracted material. Someone mentioned that a certain variety/batch had as much as 1 % DMT. An early report had it at .57%. Like anything in nature, it varies. I have also heard that certain Beta Carbolines may exsist in M.h. I wish better studies were out there on the different medicine plants from S. America. Just because on assay is done on a plant doesn't mean that plant normally produces that amount of alkaloid consistently. peace, august peace, august
