attempting decontamination of morning glory seeds of possible methylmercury treatment
    #27033320 - 11/11/20 12:09 PM (3 years, 2 months ago)

Tell me if I'm being foolhardy. My morning glory seeds may have been treated with methylmercury, I don't know. True, I could discard them and buy untreated ones but that takes more time and money and I bought a bunch of seeds already. I found an article suggesting a number of ways to decontaminate material that has been mercury contaminated, and found the most practical, effective, and safe solution would be to soak seeds in water with a bit of potassium iodide with iodine (which I translated to "some iodine"). I had some on hand, the disinfectant for wounds, dark blood-red color, containing 10% povidone iodine equivalent to 1% iodine. My reading suggested a wide range of concentrations can do the trick, and I'm not working in a lab or measuring with precision here, nor do I have the patience to, so I just mixed 20 drops of the disinfectant in 1/3 cup of water with seeds in there, which I will let soak for 24 hours. Then I will dump the water, rinse, squeeze the seed insides out to discard the husks, dry the mush completely, pound it to a powder or mush, and, following some very provocative trip reports on reddit, I intend to SMOKE this powder with weed or tobacco to see if I can replicate the positive results people are reporting. I'm going through this decontamination effort because I read smoking something treated with methylmercury could cause temporary, possibly permanent, brain damage. There's a lot I don't know about how effective any of my efforts are going to be, here. I'm trying to mitigate risks while not run away from rewards. A couple months ago I had a horrible (nausea, vomiting, chills, rapid heart rate) experience consuming the same seeds, not sure from the nature of the seeds or seed treatment or both, so I can't eat them anymore, but they are a very promising psyche according to so many reports. I'll update how it all goes when I try smoking it in a few days. I'll start with smoking one seed, and if I experience no major negatives, will increase dose to 5 seeds on a later day, which is the amount others are reporting to be very effective. Advice?

I'd post in the Chemistry and Pharmacology subforum rather then here.
