Got my extraction started just now. I'm using 10 grams, and probably about 50 ml of 151 proof Everclear with a 500 mg vitamin C tablet dissolved in it. It's a lot of ascorbic acid, but I figure it can't hurt anything.

So I had the same problem as Dotty with the sugar not wanting to go into solution. I stirred and heated for a good long while and it just wouldn't all go in. I went ahead and dumped it on the tray to dry though. I imagine it's still gonna work, but the crystals may be smaller.
I ended up using just over 100 ml of solvent after I strained it all out. Looked like less in the jar, but whatever. I evaporated to right about 50 ml then added 1/3 pack of Kool-Aid and enough sugar to bring it up to 100 ml.

Yeah, so it's looking like I'm getting something more like Pixie Stix. Not really a problem, but I was hoping for bigger crystals. I've had a fan on it for about an hour and 45 minutes now. It looks pretty dry, but I'll probably leave the fan on all night. I'm not really set up to vacuum dry it right at the moment.
I'll to adjust next time and see if I can get it all into solution, I think that'd make it much prettier.

New batch was done with 150ml of solvent, 300ml of sugar, and 1/2 packet of koolaid.
Took nearly 24hrs to dry and got a ton more crystals than expected!!
Next time will try to reduce it further to 50ml of solvent

Yeah, I noticed that myself. I got a lot of candy for not a whole lot of mushrooms. Making it more concentrated would definitely be a good idea. The good thing though, is I bet this lends itself extremely well to scaling up.

How'd you dry it? I've got mine in a baking pan lined with wax paper with a box fan sitting on top of it.

Yea in my experience I've found to obtain large crystals you need to use water as your solvent, heat slightly to 120°f then cool as slow as possible, once cool pour into your pan and evaporate as slow as possible. Ethanol and speed drying tend to lead to finer/smaller crystals and more of them.
Sometimes I have difficulty forcing the sugar into solution when using ethanol. If it gets to the point where it will not dissolve anymore I'll add water drop wise until it goes into solution. I usually only need a dozen or so drops to dissolve the remaining sugar.

WillSolvem said: Here's a cool alternative to plain rock candy. I have scaled it down using ice cube trays or muffin tins so each geode is one hit. A more detailed write up of the following is in the works 
Make a tin foil mold

Line mold with a thin layer of fondant and pour in your rock candy solution

Once hardened flip candy out of the mold and pour melted chocolate over it

Once cooled trim excess fondant/chocolate and enjoy!

I have to make that.

Well, this stuff seems mostly dry so far! I pulled up my wax paper this morning and the majority of the crystals just fell off. I had a thin bottom layer that still stuck, so I've got that back under the fan.
It definitely smells mushroomy, so I've got some pretty high hopes. As long as the heat and slightly excessive use of the fan didn't ruin it, I think this is gonna be great.
I'd say the main thing I learned this round is that you can really reduce your final solution a LOT more than you think you can. I ended up with a fairly big bag of candy for just 3 doses.

Yea I wrestled with that at first. I used two cups of sugar to make two hits the first time, it was way too much sugar, I ended up using it to sweeten up a large glass of green tea, I tripped pretty good but still too much sugar. I'm excited to hear how it turns out for you!

So here is a little info for everyone trying this exp. If you use: 150ml of solvent 300ml of sugar and 1/2 pack of kool-aid
This will work, just expect a day to dry.
Now what I want you to take away from this post is 150mlsolvent+300ml=~29grams of candy. A shit ton of candy!
Anyone have any idea how far you can reduce the solvent? I have heard of 1ml per 1gram of dry material could you do say 1ml per 2 grams of dry material>?

If you're using 300 ml of sugar, you had best be using a couple oz of mushrooms at least. IDK how far you can evap though.
I'm still waiting on my test dummy to give me some results. I told him to just dissolve 1/3 of what I gave him (10 grams worth) into some water, sort of like how you did it in green tea. Except I used Kool-Aid, so I doubt any flavoring would be needed.
I've been thinking about it, and the Kool-Aid consistency might be an advantage. If you make it right and just store it in a Kool-Aid container, cops would never even question it. Figure out the numbers to make it so you need like a tbsp or 2 for a glass of organic electric Kool-Aid. I've seen THC in hard candies, and with the rising legal/medical markets, cops know to check a lot of foods. I've never heard of powdered food containing THC though.

Lastest mixture took forever to dry. Had to add more sugar during the process. But that time it is much easier to work with

I kinda got some results back from my guinea pig. He said he definitely felt something and got some very light tracers, but that was about it. But he had been eating acid 2-3 times a week for a couple weeks beforehand, so his results are probably skewed because of tolerance.
How's the potency on yours, Dotty?
