I have now tried dried leaves, 5x, 10x, and the quid method with dried leaves and nothing is happening. I'm using a bong, non-bic lighter, and holding the hits in for 30+ seconds. With the 5x I smoked two large bowls and nothing. Same with the 10x. I've been reading that others smoke a pinch and are fully enveloped in the trip. All I feel is slightly stoned and a little light-headed from holding the hits in for so long. Anyone have this experience and found a way around it? God, I hope I'm not somehow immune to Salvia.
About 10% of people that use salvia are somewhat immune to its effects. They require a very high extract to really feel the effects. People also have an initial immunity to salvia which is reduced over time as more and more salvia is used. Also, be sure to keep your eyes closed and be in a comfortable setting to really feel it. You kinda have to search for the effects sometimes, it just adds to the mystery of Salvia Divinorum!
