My ~mescaline?

I recieved two of these bags. I was told each was 1 dose, 20g of ground cactus containing 400mg of mescaline.
Thing is, my friend who gave them to me (as a gift, what a cool dude! ) doesn't know if they are ground peyote, ground Peruvian Torch, or San Pedro or what...Can anybody give me any idea of which of the three it could be based on this pic and the dosage info I gave? Also, what is the main difference between the cacti.

Unless he had them tested and quantitated (not an easy process), there's no way to know that there is 400mg of mescaline in there. I would guess it's torch or pachanoi, however the black specks in there make me think it could also be peyote. So it's hard to say really.
The only thing we can do really is speculate. Since your friend said that the 20g was really good for one person, I would take his word for it, assuming he is at least somewhat similar to you in terms of weight.

He is similar in weight, almost exactly the same build between us actually.
Yes the black specks are what had me really curious. Would it be helpful if I tried to use my camera's macro zoom?

Also, it smells bitter as fuck, like it would taste awesome.

What makes you assume it could be peyote based on black specks being present? Whichever of the 3 it is, enjoy it~

400mg mescaline in 20g powder would make it 2% mescaline. It could be any of the three. Although, if it is a trichocereus species, it is some of the strongest there is. Assuming, of course, your friend is right about the mescaline content.
There's nothing about that picture that would rule out any of the three either. I've received dried powdered peruvian torch that looked like that. I've also had some that had a creamy green color to it.

I'm not an authority on this by any means, but I've got to recommend this to you... you should verify this advice with more knowledgeable posters, though.
Don't just eat that stuff. Don't encapsulate it, don't parachute it. I've read trip reports where the powder rehydrates in your stomach, and suddenly you've got a foot of cactus' worth of sludge in your gut. Then you vomit and shit throughout your trip.
What I would do is make tea and filter. Then I'd make tea out of the filtered material again and again and again until I was satisfied that I'd extracted as much of the alkaloids as I could. You'll definitely lose some mescaline, but I think a bit of potency loss is worth avoiding the ingestion of all that cactus.
I use MJshroomer's tek for fresh cactus and it works wonders every time. But even then, I still get the shits during the latter part of the trip.
Aside from ingestion issues, mescaline is amazing. You're going to love it

I just received a bag of powdered torch from an online vendor. It looks EXACTLY like that.

Same here. I would put money on that being Peruvian Torch.

Please don't support anyone who sells prepared peruvian torch/san pedro. Its going to get it taken away from us much faster than it would have.

I bet I'll probably catch crap like that when I talk about using powdered peruvian torch and san pedro even though it'll be from my own garden. I'm just waiting for them to grow into a sustainable crop.
