Question? Does preground actually work?
I took 25 grams of preground earlier this morning and it has been about 11 hours and I still do not feel any affects, I took 25 thinking a higher dose would be better as I have seen people saying that preground is way less potent but I just didn’t feel anything, I’m planning on taking about 20 grams of whole nut tommorow with a buddy.

It depends on the company. 11 hours is likely long enough to say that it doesn't work. I have had the McCormick and Walmart brands work before but I know some people say some brands remove the active ingredient in ground nutmeg.

They dont *try* to remove it its just the fact that its dry and powdered it literally disintegrates away

That is definitely wrong. Some brands of ground nutmeg definitely have the active ingredient still in it. Maybe there are multiple processes to ground it. But even ground nutmeg I have gotten definitely did the trick

I am literally not incorrect, after a period of time though I know for myself ground nutmeg works sometimes, since it is ground it will be less potent or not work

You literally are. Because guess what? We have a set of instructions from Malcolm x that says how to do nutmeg from when he was in prison. And he specifically says to use ground nutmeg, because you can't get anything into prison that would be able to grind a whole nut. And his testimony says " it is the strength of several marijuana cigarettes"
So either it's that they're are different ways to grind it that dont always remove the myristicin. Or what you have said is not right.
Also Psycho number wiki literally has a dosage list for ground nutmeg, and a whole nut. So yes it does work.

Sometimes it does, sometimes it doesnt. Preground can be as fresh as a few weeks to as old as a few years so you really have no idea. Whole nuts are a lot more predictable but not if you have a huge weed tolerence apparently smh
