Hey, I've only been tripping for a few months really (not regularly either.) I have exactly the same problem as you! I tried some 20x extract with no effect, a few attempts at 40x with not much happening at all. I have a blue flame lighter which gets the stuff a good temperature, try to burn it quickly in the bong then hold it for as long as I can, but.. barely anything happens. Sometimes feel like I'm concentrating too much on making the most of the process and possibly looking for effects too much instead of letting it take it's effect? I get quite a lot of smoke and inhale all traces of life out of the stuff but it only has minimal effect. It's my friends salvia and he has had very intense trips with it so I know it's good stuff. Really want to feel it's full intensity.
I liked the whole no talking, no lights, eyes closed idea thing someone posted I just tried it, with little success. Oh the salvia worked alright lol I started freaking out, i forgot who or what I was and tried to get out of my room (dorm), but i locked it first and i couldnt comprehend unlocking it, then i walked into my hallway with my bong, and didnt know why i was there... then walked back in, sat down (in my chair), layed down (in my bed), got up, walked out into the hallway, came back, sat down, layed down, got up.... this repeated for a while, im comming off it now and i feel sick to my stomach that was the most instense trip ive ever had from good ol sally.... wow
Yes, I do have it. That's how we got on this conversation, remember? I haven't heard the first SAW yet though.
