same question, im doing ti for the firsdt time tomorrow, 20x as well, should i mix it with weed or just do it straight?

I've only done it twice, both times without weed. I don't know if I would have been able to smoke weed after the salvia, seeing as I was taken to a different world entirely. Try without first IMO, just so you can see what the trip of the salvia itself is like. Remember to hold your breath, even more than a weed hit, i made the mistake of exhaling too soon and wasted a bowl.
This is what I saw, if you are curious.

I tried a small hit of 20X yesterday in a small pipe that I dug up from the 70's and I had a really nice, but short lived trip. I pulled a small amount of tobacco out of a smoke and placed in in the pipe. Then I dropped about 1/3 of that amount of Salvia out from the vile and on top of the tobacco. I used a Bic lighter and took it in hard, I held it for about 20-30 seconds and kaboom, lol.

It was my first time trying Salvia and I hadn't gotten high in decades, although I was a big fan of sids and schrooms, back in the day.

Blasting off was pretty wild, not in a bad way, it felt awesome. I was watching and listening to "Roll The Bones" from the "Rush, Live in Rio" DVD and all of a sudden... kaboom, lol.

I can't believe what I heard and how Alex Lifeson's guitar sounded, once I got off, I wish I could explain.

The high isn't the same as sids, but the similarities are there. I saw trails and mild hallucinations, and while this may sound strange, I enjoyed it more with my eyes closed.

It was an intense high, I just wish it would last longer.

My first time (last night) was perfect in strength and intensity. Just strong enough to be a bit scary, push my limits, but weak enough for me to regain control, keep myself calm, enjoy it, etc. And it lasted less than five minutes at the craaaaazy peak. Then a couple more minutes tapering off, then like 20 minutes feeling the after effects. I used 15x stuff and smoked a pinch (about the size of a small bowl) and it was perfect for what I wanted out of this brand new experience. 20x should be fine in my opinion. I've heard people say they've done 40x+ and it wasn't that different.

Just read up on it a lot, smoke as much smoke as you can at once- preferably the whole bowl, and hold it in for 20+ seconds. Breath out and the trip will have already started taking off. Keep things mellow. My first hit of the stuff I breathed out after like.. ten seconds, and it was nowhere remotely as strong.

Would writing music be a good idea on salvia?

Dunno about this.Haha

If you can hold a pencil and actually focus on writing, then sure.

Amount? how much should i be smoking to get a decent trip of Salvia?

Length? How long does the trip last? is it anywhere near the length of a shroom trip?

Type? what strength should i be ordering, ive checked www.iamshaman.com, and from what ive read on this forum it looks like i want to be getting one of these 5 or 10x extracts.

non-standardized/standardized? which is better/safer/trippier? what is the difference?

Weights? how does 1/8th salvia extract compare in size to 1/8th of skunk?

Thanks in advance for all answers.

When smoking an extract of 5x or more any ole pipe will work and a small pinch (just what you can exhale in 1 - 2 hits) is enough. For me, I hold the smoke long enough that I rarely get a second hit. The effect comes on about the time I exhale or shortly thereafter and last for about 5 min. It effects motor skills so talking and walking is out of the question. Just sit back and relax and let it go. I have yet to have experienced any anxiety (paranoia) or fea with Salvia, nor does it have that "timelessness" quality that many other drugs do. It's a quick trip and for me is most usually always totally emmersive, that is I actually hallucinate and go to an entirely different world with people and things, totally 3D.

Be sure to have a sitter the first few times until you can trust yourself to be alone. As for me to be totally alone has produced the best experiences.

you guys are full of shit.... you aren't doing the plant you are doing some shit you bought of the internet.

Go to mexico and get with a shaman and chew it and let him guide you.

You are doing synth crap.....

Yes they are selling you syth crap that you buy online.

the plant only grows down there and if you say you have the plant your a lyer....

You have the other plant the A plant... that's not mother mary.

Yes you will go to another world if you hit that twice or take a big hit...

but you guys on the internet aren't doing the REAL plant.

It only grows in one place and you need to go there to get the real experience.

and the old mayans ( yes I said mayans) and other mexican shamans won't let you get the real plant unless you want to find out about yourself and have a mission to find out about the world that is our illusion.

You kids enjoy the fake stuff.

I just told you how to get the real experience.

but most of you are just doing this plant for the high and not for the enlightenment.
