Stop. Make the batch readable before you weigh it.

Treat the first batch like a materials problem before it becomes a dose problem. Standardize the material, clear chemistry, then take the most conservative first floor you can defend.

Before the scale

Do these three things first.

Homogenize first Check chemistry first Start from a floor
Clear chemistry → Set first floor →

Step 1: Powder the whole batch

Potency can swing dramatically between specimens in the same bag. If the material is not blended into one consistent powder, the scale will give you a clean number and a dirty read.

Action: Grind entire supply → Mix thoroughly → Store airtight

Step 2: Clear chemistry

SSRIs, MAOIs, lithium, and related medications can change both risk and read. Clear the chemistry layer before you start interpreting what a first dose means.

Step 3: Earn the range

There is no universal starter number hiding in the bag. Set a conservative floor, then earn the real range through logged calibration instead of a single lucky day.
