OK FINALLY got it right.

I will post this here and in a new thread. This is my final stand and it is a good one. It is the FINALLY formula with a small tweak.

See below for links to all products.

Employ the JimOakey set up. Wear protective gloves and eye wear.

  1. Add into a small mason jar 1 table spoon of nitrite.

  2. Add 1 1/2 ounce of Isobutyl alcohol.

  3. Add 3 ounces of DISTILLED WATER.

  4. Place in a mixer and allow to mix for duration of this process.

  5. At 10 minutes into the mixing process slowly "pour" 1 ounce of acid into the blend being mixed. Do not use an eye dropper. Do not hurry the pouring. SLOWLY is the keyword.

  6. When acid is all in allow blend to mix for one more minute. (Go was out your pouring cup or something.)

  7. Turn off mixer. Remove blend.

  8. Extract utter top layer of greenish popper. Results will vary; I extracted 19 ml of popper. Tossed a ml or two.

    Very nice, comfortable high. Should last at least 4 session depending how intense you huff.

    JimOakey's set up please go find it and do as it says. I re-posted it here: https://www.reddit.com/r/popperpigs/comments/3k1i6j/adventures_in_popper_production/ Those who do; I will give enough details so you will not need to review the posts.

u/RedIsildur · 2 pointsr/spirulina

Thanks again, this is all very helpful. I was thinking i might have to go ACS, and Reagent grade since Spirulina absorbs heavy metals apparently.

I was kinda torn between getting cheaper ingredients now for fish use and upgrading later for selling quality, but now I think I'm defiantly looking to be able to sell (Spirulina and Zarrouk). So I'll be looking into the ratings. However, resources like your link will be useful for cheaper options for fish food. Tbh I'll probably experiment more with common garden fertilizers and such for this purpose.

Also, I'ts kinda awkward to be searching for "food grade" Boric Acid. So far even Quality ACS Boric Acid warns not for Food use.

​

For others looking, so far the items I've found and am considering purchasing are as follows:

Dipotassium hydrogen phosphate

Sodium nitrate

Potassium Sulfate

Calcium Chloride

ethylene diamino tetracetic acid

​

Solution A:

Boric Acid

Manganese (II) Chloride Tetrahydrate (MnCl2 . 4 H2O )

Zinc Sulfate

Copper Sulfate

Molybdenum oxide

I'll try to make a complete edited list after some more research.

"Glaubersalz" is just a type of sodium sulfate.

> Decahydrate, known as the mineral mirabilite, widely used by chemical industry. Also known as Glaubers salt.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sodium_sulfate

Apparently (I'm German) it can be easily bought in the US e.g. on Amazon. Here is one such listing: http://www.amazon.com/Natural-Sulfate-Granular-Anhydrous-Crystals/dp/B005K4EKQQ

> Glauber's Salt: Glauber's salt is simply sodium sulfate mixed with water. The chemical formula is 10 H2O*Na2SO4. This means there are 10 water molecules per molecule of sodium sulfate. The molecular weight of water is 18 times 10 makes 180. The weight of sodium sulfate is 142. So in order to make Glauber's salt, you simply need to mix at a ratio of 180 weight in water to every 142 weight of sodium sulfate, or 180/322 = 56% water by weight to 44% sodium sulfate by weight. As a simple example, add 180 grams of water (180ml) to 142 grams of anhydrous sodium sulfate and you will have Glauber's Salt.
