What does your research log look like?
-
Hey everybody, this is my first post, I'm more of a lurker than a poster, but this community is so friendly, I figured I'd jump out of my comfort zone and find out what people put in their research log.
I'm only researching reta right now, and have been logging:
- date of injection
- mg injected
I looked back and added up how much I had injected and checked how many vials I had used in my kit.
The math didn't math. I was on vial 3 and I should have still been on vial 2. I can think of a lot of explanations, but can't prove or disprove any.
How do you log your research?
Here's what I'm thinking about logging going forward, thoughts?
Per bac water:
- Date bac water was opened
- Vendor / batch number
- Log dates and volumes when water is removed.
- Label bac water with date of opening
- Misc notes
Per vial:
- Label vial with date of reconstitution and amount to draw to get 1 mg
- Date vial was opened
- Vendor / batch number
- Mass of peptide in vial
- Volume of bac water used to reconstitute, link to bac water entry
- Size of filter used
- Misc notes
Per injection
- Link to vial
- Mass of peptide injected (mg)
- Volume injected (units / ml)
- Side effects
- Misc notes
I'm even thinking about setting up cameras to video myself reconstituting so that I can critique my technique.
-
Just use an app, I use Smart Peptide Tracker.
It keeps track of all that, your inventory, price, where you got it, the last time you injected in which site you are considering... -

@glpbacon hey there , My record keeping is as follows: on one list is my purchases what vendor what products the date and money spent , the dose log from left to rt in the margin is the dose number of the cycle ,date, time , the product name, where i injected, and the number of units . when i begin a cycle i also add extra info i will circle the product name say the mix ie the MG and the mL and usualy what my dose will be in mcg or mg and how mny units and the number of doses i expect to get , when i finis the cycle
9 or pen) i draw a box aroung the name and the dose number and write "Final" where i can i also box all weekly tirz doses and a triangle around the number of the Cagri dose. . may not be the best system but at least i understand it . -
I use a combo of an AI app that I made and good ol' calendar app on my Mac. I track it all. Dosing, dates, BAC dilution, vendor, etc. I even take pictures of my injections sites after each go so I can avoid the same place for at least 3 weeks. I find this super helpful.

This is how I keep up with mine. The app is called PepFlow.

-
If interested, there is a site called neemio.com I'm kinda obsessed with it lol It's essentially a research tool plus a protocol builder where you can search and explore different substances like herbs, supplements, peps and other compounds. Can build stacks/regimens, do comparisons, check interactions for conflicts, synergies etc.

It keeps track of all that, your inventory, price, where you got it, the last time you injected in which site you are considering...@Stan-Douglas I'll check it out, that app looks very comprehensive

I couldn’t find anything that did just what I wanted, so I wrote a new app.
I hope to be posting it about it on this board soon. iOS only, TestFlight beta access at first.

I used co-pilot, told it what I wanted, it performed beautifully.
Also analyzes uploaded CoAs, flags them for points of concern etc

I just use a spreadsheet right now and a checklist I made in my notes app. I check them off on my checklist. My spreadsheet has the vial size, the BAC water, the dosage and frequency/time of dosage. I have a separate spreadsheet with my inventory.

This thread is amazing! I use a combination of a spreadsheet to track volumes, recons, and inventory, and my daily journal to track what I research, when, and where. It is not as scientific as I might prefer, but it keeps track of things.
I am mainly interested in tracking results, so pictures can be useful (and don’t lie) to compare when starting a research protocol vs ending it. Also Hume scale and app.
