imagine the nice nasal passages and how they shape smoothly and simply into the throat. Not much tubing or reaction surface there. now imagine the myriad alveoli at the ends of the millions of bronchi at the ends of the multitude of bronchial tubes and the end of the trachea which amounts to thousands of feet of tubing. so when you inhale salvia smoke with salvinorin droplets (liquid) and maybe a little salvinorin vapor, do you think it will be more effective in lungs or in nose. lungs have a huge surface to react with tiny droplets of salvinorin and nose has very little surface. Also as a solid salvinorin is waxy, which really resists absorption. which will have the highest transfer rate. note you have to peak fast with salvia, the threashold hit is 90 seconds. my guess is you would need so much salvinorin in the nose that it would be a huge drag. and if you did get stoned it would be uncomfortable for a long time
who should we try it on??? (just kidding - nobody wants that in their nose for 15 mins then freak city with their finger going cukoo round and round - ouch ouch!)
