The base (ammonium hydroxide) and any of the acids (from the bluing) will react, and form a salt, which may form crystals, but it's not going to be chemically or pharmacologically anything like meth.Īnother thing that had me skeptical was that none of my searches were getting hits on any of the drug information clearing houses Erowid, Rhodium (now defunct), or Lycaeum.īut Erowid eventually came through the recipe is 'complete bunk' - the idea was dreamed up in the 1970's by a guy named Scott French and published in a book, the 'Complete Guide to the Street Drug Game.'Īs explained by the erowid article's author,Īs with the Net in general, there is a paucity of accurate information available on the subject of illicit drugs. Pseudoephedrine is an amine, and is used in both the red phosphorus/Hydrogen Iodide and Lithium/anhydrous ammonia cooking methods. You need an organic compound like an amine - as in meth-amphet- amine. There is no organic compound in the recipe, so you're not going to get anything remotely similar to the organic compound methamphetamine. On a more basic level, you just can't get there chemically. The problem is, this recipe is all a bunch of crap even the DEA knows it. These are called ' meth bites.' (locally, 'ice bites' - assonance is important to addicts, too) On top of all that, it has a 'half-life' of only a few days after removal from the ground within two weeks, it will be pharmacologically inert. It is a fungus that keeps growing inside your body long after you ingest it (by shooting or smoking) That's why addicts scratch and get open sores it's the ice forming new crystals in a person's skin. However, this is not really meth it's alive.

By then crystals will have formed the crystals are ice. (hence the occasional name ' string dope') Then wait a month. Some recipes call to suspend strings from the top of the container into the mixture.

Then the mixture is buried in a sealed fish tank or cooler. It's made by mixing 1) household ammonia (more accurately, ammonium hydroxide (aq)) 2) crumbled charcoal (carbon) and 3) gun bluing (Selenious Acid, Cupric Nitrate, Nitric Acid, Phosphoric Acid and water ) in equal parts. Its effects are supposed to be physiologically identical to meth, but the substance will not test as meth, either in a Narcopouch test or in a GC/MS. I'd never heard of it before, and it didn't make sense. I've had a couple of clients independently tell me about a new kind of methamphetamine.
