DMT resemble traditional methamphetamine labs, and one of the main ingredients used to make the drug is found in a rare tree root.
Any idea what this is? Whatever it is, it's only going to get rarer. I know isosafrole is used for a precursor to MDMA, but I'd imagine it takes a helluva lot of sasafrass root.

Mimosa Hostilis... a kilo gets you up to 8 grams of DMT... and the technique and chemicals are not dangerous, or so a FOAF told me.

Generally on these plant extractions you'll need to use a strong nonpolar solvent such as petroleum ether, which is pretty flammable. Still, it's no more volatile than a lot of things you'll find in a garage like paint thinner or, oh, gasoline.

Yeah but if you set yourself on fire you can use the same plant to soothe those burns.
Powdered tepezcohuite bark contains large amounts (16%) of tannins, which act as an astringent
Mimosa tenuiflora "tepezhuite" proved vital in the treatment of some of the 5000 burn victims in the aftermath of a series of explosions at large liquid petroleum gas explosion at a huge facility located near Mexico City in San Juan Ixhuatepec (San Juanico), November 19, 1984.
When I was a kid living in Louisville Purina ralston used vast quantities of hexane in the procesing of soybeans. One night a valve froze and an entire tank of the stuff flowed unnoticed down the storm sewers. The hexane then flowed underneath the city downslopetowrads churchill downs and the river. The vapors flowed up each side branch off the main trunk.
An hour before dawn the mixture ignited and the fire spread throughout the sewers. The heliocoptor pilot above said it looked like a WWII bombing raid as the various sewer branches blew up sequentially. Great 20 foot deep stinking crators were made wherever there was a large chamber like at a street intersection. Manhole covers were thrown 3 storys in the air. Toilets exploded in the University dorms. Thankfully the city was asleep at the time. An hour later and it would have been a very different story. The only deaths though were from a lone car that was motoring along above the 15 foot wide main trunk. The victim's car was crushed by being smashed into the underside of the bridge she was passing under. Our foundation was cracked but to our great fortune we found out in the ensuing months that we lived prevalingly upwind.
