Hi, according to sources arundo donax contains DMT and its analogues. Extraction of 5-MeO DMT with vinegar, lye and naphtha is possible, but other alkaloids are also extracted in this way. In order to separate them afterwards, an individual solvent or a solvent mixture for 5-MeO DMT has to be chosen.
