Default Hey Poopeen

Hey Poopeen,

You wanted to be famous.

There is a synth for cat over at the hive. There is no np used and he uses, well, a ton of water (150 for the cleaned pseudo and 265 for the KmnO4(15ml saturated solution + 250 ml dilutant) YOU on the other hand use VERY little water in your a/b. His is really comprehensive and lists all the temperature downfalls, he also uses isopropol alcohol to stop the KMnO4 reaction. Something about almond smell and all that.

My question is - have you ever had a bad batch using the method you listed here? I prefer the a/b reaction to all that water trying to dry out. Can you use pseudo still in its water phase? Meaning that you have de-gaked it but it is still in the water? OR would it be better to a/b the pseudo, dry it and then a/b the cat?

Wannabe

I didnt understand all of your question, so ill say this.......ummm.....ah yes, i have indeed had a BAd batch when i was trying different amounts of pott. perm. It over oxidised, i assume, when i used too much. I have tried it without an a/b after oxidizing, it was not at all good as with an a/b. OOOOoooohhh! I might get it now, do you mean ...nevermind.
