Hawaiian Baby Woodrose: yes or no for first psychedelic experience?

Hey folks!

I've had no experience with psychedelics before, but lately I have been reading a lot about them and found it absolutely fascinating and something that I think could be really beneficial to me in a spiritual sense and just for the purpose of expanding my mind and experiencing new things.

I'm home from school for the summer, and Hawaiian Baby Woodrose seeds have struck me as a potential good place to start, since I don't know where to get anything else and it's pretty much legal. I would be taking a mild dose (4 or 5 seeds) with a method that's supposed to avoid the accompanying nausea altogether. I would also take ginger with it to combat any nausea.

I'm a bit nervous about the duration of the trip...I would be taking them when my parents are at work, and the 5-8 hour duration reported on Erowid sounds like it should be enough, but if it goes over, I'd prefer not to be tripping when my dad gets home. I figure I would have 9-10 hours between the time I take it and when he gets home from work. So do you think this could be a problem? If I was starting to come down by that time, do you think I'd be able to hide it well enough?

So first off, do you think that HBWR would be a good first psychedelic experience? And second, do you think I should be ok with regards to the timing issue?

Thank you so much!!! :sunny:

 

I actually changed my mind about doing it over the summer...thanks anyway!

 

I personally reccommend heavy doses of psychedelics initially and due to factors such as body load, nausea and vasoconstriction I wouldn't reccommend a HBWR as a good introduction to psychedelics. However at the dose you are/were contemplating exploring which would be a fairly light dose, I think that would be a good dose for an altered mindstate without facing some of the heavier depths of the psychedelic experience.

I don't think It's a good idea to make your trip timeframe dependent on your parents coming home, this.can play into your trip and may not allow you to fully appreciate it, eventhough I think that is enough time to comedown.
