Add to PsychonautWiki Journal
The PsychonautWiki Journal logging app doesn't include every substance. To track W-15 there, start adding an ingestion, search for the name, and choose to add it as a custom substance. Paste these values:
W-15 Source: SubstanceSearch (substancesearch.com) Oral dose (mg): light 2-5 ยท common 5-10 ยท strong 10-15 ยท heavy 15+ Oral duration: onset 15-40m ยท peak 4-6h ยท total 4-6h ยท after-effects 2-4h Note: ranges are harm-reduction guidance, not a prescription. Start low, go slow, and test your substances.
Tip: for quicker logging you can also add a Custom Unit in the app, e.g. common dose ~ 7.5 mg (Oral).
The app keeps custom substances simple, so the full dose ranges live in the description text above. Ranges are harm-reduction guidance, not a prescription.
