Firstly I'm sorry to add to the abundant "first time" posts but I need these answered for the sake of confidence as I am the first person I know to try this. 1. So I just got my hands on 1g 20x, should I take a certain amount or just fill my lungs and hold for 30? I have a little-over-average tolerance to weed, shrooms and alcohol if it makes any difference. Second I have heard many different answers to this but hell... bong/pipe? The fun one: anything special to the environment or is the trip all I need? Music or things to do etc? And yes I realise it's a short trip.
start with a small pinch, if you don't get much effect then increase very gradually. first-timers often have unpleasant experiences if they take too much. 20x is powerful stuff, very easy to overdo it. bong is easier on your throat because the smoke is cooled and you are able to tolerate larger tokes, so a bong or a waterpipe is recommended when taking a big toke. For a small hit of 20x it probably doesn't make much difference. Take it in a quiet place, make sure there will be no loud interruptions such as the phone ringing or somebody walking in. silence is probably best, tho some like soft music. Get in a comfortable meditative position and close your eyes when it hits.
I have never tried 20x but i will do it eventually for sure! All i can say is that you shouldn't take a very big hit at first... Don't make the mistake i did by lighting it up from the corner and then just smoking it like regular weed. You have to keep the light on the salvia to keep it burning at a high temperature while sucking the smoke in very fast! The point is to get it in fast and at a high temperature. Make sure you lie down somewhere in a chair or something, darkness and silence and maybe someone you trust to keep you feel safe, though i prefer doing it alone, people just interrupt the trance
Yeah, I like my trips or experiences to be alone. No one around, no phone, no possibility of someone coming around for some reason. For some reason, I'm one of the few people who can't seem to get away with doing it in my house like I hear so many others say. I've had some trippy and near-hyperspace things happen to me just from Hawaiian foliage alone. That was of course after reverse-tolerance had it's way with me and it was like my 10th or 11th time before I got it to work as I wanted it to. Smoking out of a can doesn't work too well for Salvia, lol. 10x is on it's way though, and I'm excited I might finally get the breakthrough I've been looking for. Seriously use just a pinch of 20x. That is some seriously strong shit.
Well I have one followup for the replies, do you guys usualy like to trip alone? I know I don't... Or is the salvia just better on your own?
