TEK - SWIMS attempt at cooking crack and its results

[darkbreed]

SWIM got a bag of coke because he wanted to try crack as he never tried it before. As crack is not available where SWIM lives he decided to try make it himself as after reading about it the procedure seemed rather easy.

So SWIM, being unexperienced and never tried before, simply followed a procedure mentioned somewhere.

It said to mix coke and sodium bicarbonate in a spoon, add alittle water and cook it until the sodium bicarbonate didnt bubble up anymore.

So SWIM took a tiny bit of coke powder, about tip of a teaspoon, perhaps almost half a teaspoon but not topped. He added about same amount of the sodium bicarbonate. He mixed the two powders together first before adding some water, about a teaspoon full.

He then cooked it over a candle and it started bubble pretty much, so he took it away from the heat a tiny moment to let the bubbles settle some, and repeated the cooking some more, and he had to add alittle more water as it started to dry up. He cooked some more, hoping to see those mentioned rocks form, but didnt see anything like that form.

Instead he boiled it down until it was pretty dry white stuff stuck around on the edges of the spoon and small puddle of wet goo in middle. He had heared he should have poured off the water when the rocks formed but as he didnt see any rocks he simply cooked it down until it was almost dry and then scraped it off the spoon and on to a cd cover. he let it dry there for a while and was left with a pretty whiteish/grayish substance that was dry enough to chop up into powder chunks.

Not sure if this was crack or not he decided to roll it all into a sigarette in case it would work, and he was wanting a smooth and mellow first try so thats why he did the cigarette thing instead of trying on some sort of pipe.

He assumed it should still give some effects this way as other substances have done so in his past such as opium, heroin, meth, benzos etc which also usually is smoked in similar way in pipe such as those used for crack.

He smoked this sigarette, which did have a chemical taste to it and burned a bit slow so he had to puff a bit hard to keep it burning but as soon it got burning it wen fine, and he inhaled deeply and held in the smoke each time from 10 to 20 seconds until the sigarette was finished.

He did feel a mild feeling of being more awake and pleasent but nothing strong or mindblasting. He thinks it was some sort of crack effect from this, but as a note he do not normally smoke cigarettes so the tobacco and nicotine itself could also have either added to the effects or been more or less responsible.

The main question is, did SWIM get crack even though he didnt get rocks? And would this method of smoking it normally give effects and if so how strong effecs, like what should he expect to feel?

And any suggestions on what SWIM did wrong since no rocks were formed and he only was left with this white dried stuff covering the spoon?

He was thinking maybe he used too little or too much of either of the three ingredients (coke, sodium bic. and water) ?

Or did the cooking procedure wrong way?

Also, he was thinking maybe the coke was not of best quality and cut too much?

As a note, he did snort a line of the coke right after the smoke and got some more effects from that. So he think that he probably should just have done the same with the part he cooked as well =9
