Good Seeds from.....

Can you tell exactly again what to look for in the good seeds and the ones that are not. And any other things I might notice when getting ready to dose again. Think I had some not so hot ones,  but am doing good again now.

Did you dose after the first time?  Also, what do you mean by good seeds?  I usually throw out the seeds that look black...if it's an opaque white or very light green color those I use...
 
Not sure if I answered the Q correctly girl... Undecided

Sorry, I suck at explaining things sometimes. Well, I started getting hit last Friday and I dosed but it did nothing so.....(beat me) but I dosed again last night and did feel better. I heard some seeds have more potency in them. Anyway so far so good but was wondering. This is the WORST time for me to start getting hit again.(well, there really no good time but...
I need a visual of a good one, you know me LOL

If you mean good seeds as in viable, etc.  That should be easy to see once you cut into the seeds.  The bad ones are black or other colors than white-ish.  You might want to try the extraction method via red wine for 12 to 24 hours rather than the water for 2.  I  haven't done this myself, but read where it might be more effective for lsa extraction.

I haven't found a bad one yet, but they're different sizes and probably vary in potency from batch to batch and seed to seed...

I have not personally ingested any seeds, but I have been doing some research on them. I don't think anyone has ingested all seed types for comparative purposes in relation to CH effectiveness. Effects also vary by individual. I've read that one person had a trip level 4 from 2 HBW seeds, another person took 8 HBW seeds multiple times with a trip level 0.
 
Hawaiian Baby Woodrose seeds
 
IAmShaman.com has 4 different strains of Hawaiian Baby Woodrose seeds available:
 
GHB - Hawaiian Baby Woodrose Seeds (Ghana)
IHB - Hawaiian Baby Woodrose Seeds (India)
IAW - Hawaiian Baby Woodrose Seeds (Indian Ayurvedic)
HHB - Hawaiian Baby Woodrose Seeds (Hawaii)
 
The descriptions say that the HHB are the best and have the highest germination rate, the IHB are smaller than the others, and the IAW are slightly larger than the others. I don't know if, or how, IAmShaman.com tests their seeds and I don't know how fresh they are. Erowid says they begin to lose their potency in 6-9 months. I wouldn't even consider using the GHB, IHB or IAW.
 
Ethnogarden.com has Hawaiian Baby Woodrose seeds too (Argyreia Nervosa). I met the President of Ethnogarden Botanicals a few weeks ago. He has a research group that tests the seeds he sells.
 
Rivea Corymbosa seeds  
 
I would use Rivea Corymbosa seeds rather than Hawaiian Baby Woodrose seeds. See the thread titled "Rivea Corymbosa".

Because if you're buying Hawaiian Baby Woodrose seeds from IAmShaman.com, the HHB seeds are better. These are some of the notes about their seeds:
 
HHB -  "Don't be fooled by inferior seeds... these seeds have about a 95% germination rate."
 
GHB -  "Not nearly as high quality as our organic Hawaiian seeds, but we still guarantee 35% germination."
 
IHB - "Not quite as high quality as our organic Hawaiian seeds, but we still guarantee 65%-70% germination. smaller than the prized seeds from Hawaii."
 
IAW - "These seeds have about a 90% germination rate."
 
Another note about Rivea Corymbosa seeds compared to Hawaiian Baby Woodrose seeds - Flash wrote "They (Rivea corymbosa) also lack the poisonous outer husk, and ergotamine content of HBW."

Another note about Hawaiian Baby Woodrose seeds vs. Rivea Corymbosa seeds:
 
The reason why these seeds can be effective on CH is because of their Lysergic Acid Amide.
 
Erowid says this about Hawaiian Baby Woodrose seeds:
 
"At 0.136% dry weight ergine, then to get a good hit (assuming ergine is 1/10 potency of LSD) we need 100ug x 10 = 1mg ergine. Thus we need 1/1.36 g of seeds for one good hit (assuming the other alkaloids don't make you fucking sick) or 0.74 grams of HBWR seeds."
 
Did you notice that little part that says "assuming the other alkaloids don't make you fucking sick"?
 
The total alkaloids in Hawaiian Baby Woodrose seeds is more than 7 times the Lysergic Acid Amide.
 
The total alkaloids in Rivea Corymbosa seeds is only 2 times the Lysergic Acid Amide.

 Where do you find the recipe for how many seeds and how much wine and how many oz. are considered appropriate dose?  I've yet to read this particular part of the concept.

RED wine for a clusterhead?  Yikes.  Even just a whiff of red wine for Mike is like sunlight to a vampire - IMMEDIATE cluster.  He can't even eat things cooked in red wine.  
Would white wine work - anyone know?

I think it's because the seeds' ingredients are more soluble in alcohol than water.
There's even been talk of using Absolut Vodka.
If you had to you could probably then evaporate off the alcohol and be left with powder...
my guess

Redd, see the thread titled "Rivea Corymbosa" for opinions from Flash and I regarding number of seeds.
 
Margi, I see no reason why white wine wouldn't work as well as red wine. As little as a shot glass should be sufficient.  
 
I posted this in the "Rivea Corymbosa" thread 2 days ago:
 
 I've exchanged e-mails with the President of Ethnogarden Botanicals, who I met at the conference a couple weeks ago. He has looked further into Rivea Corymbosa seeds.
 
I asked him if he knew of a better way to ingest them than crushing the entire seeds and soaking them in water for 2 hours. He wrote "Crushing the seeds and Infusing them in wine for 12-24 hours".
 
I asked him again about any side effects. He wrote "No negative feedback has been received in this regard, also none of our research group has experienced any either."

Mushrooms will also impart their active ingredients when stored in alcohol for a spell.
 
Another thing to consider...  for all we know, the other additional alkaloids in HBW (the same things that make you fuckin puke) might make them MORE effective against CH.  We really don't know.  Only time and lots of psuedo-scientific testing will tell.
 
A good plan of attack, in terms of safety, would be:
 
1) Mushrooms
2) Rivea Corymbosa
3) HBW
4) LSD
 
LSD is arguably safer than 2) or 3) but it's not easy to get hold of legally, and again can be much harder to moderate the dose.
 
The GPs and neuros would probably add:
 
0) Methysergide
 
But methysergide is only safer in terms of legality, sanity (due to much lesser psychoactive effects), and the ability to sue should it seriously fuck you up.  The potential physiological side effects are much, much, much more serious.
 
The physiological side effects of LSA can also be serious but treating CH with LSA should involve a very small and infrequent dose.

That doesn't make any sense to me.
 
LSD (d-lysergic acid diethylamide) can be effective as a CH cycle-breaker and preventive.
LSD is an indole-ring hallucinogen.
LSD does not contain any of those other alkaloids.
 
HBW can be effective as a CH cycle-breaker and preventive.
HBW contains LSA and other alkaloids.
LSA (d-lysergic acid amide) is an indole-ring hallucinogen very similar to LSD.
 
What makes you think that any of those other alkaloids has anything to do with breaking or preventing a CH cycle?
 
HBW contains ergotamine, a vasoconstrictor that can be a CH abortive, but we know from Cafergot that ergotamine does not break or prevent a CH cycle.
 
What other alkaloid in HBW could possibly have an effect on breaking or preventing a CH cycle?
 
Quote:

Don't you mean the physiological side effects of the other alkaloids in the seeds? LSA is like LSD and you wrote "LSD is arguably safer than 2) or 3)" (the seeds).

I see interesting points being made by both Flash and BikerBob. Good debate. I'm not ready to rule out that the other alkaloids in HBWR doesn't have a positive effect against CH. Plus, when I dosed with HBWR seeds I didn't remove the hulls. Still, I feel the combo of psilocybin and LSA in my case was a contributing factor for my success. Lots of questions to be answered.

BikerBob,  
I'm not dissagreeing with the generalality of what you have said, though I thought I'd make a point in connection with one of your statements
 
"LSD does not contain any of those other alkaloids."
 
But purely due to it's prohibition, an "LSD" tab is not quality assured in regard to dose or composition. It most certainly contains compounds other than LSD25, albeit in hopefully small ammounts.
