Going to try Salvia

Hey, ive must have read hundreds of pages about Salvia yesterday and today and the one thing i am unclear about is the proper way to smoke it as in dosage ect ect as most pages say different things.

I just bought 1g of 10x and a 6x joint. I also bought a bottle bong converter because im more of a blunt person so don't own a bong. <<< not compairing Salvia to weed.

The reason i want to try this is for the journey and not to piss around with it as i have seen many people on YouTube doing.

My girlfriend is going to be my sitter and im going to lye on my bed after bonging it.

My question is : How much should i fill the cone of the bong with it for my 1st time and will the joint i bought actually do anything or was it a waste of money.

Cheers in adavance.

 

what type of lighter do you have? a normal bic tends to not get hot enough to get the most out of your salvia. those hotter torch lighters are best (some people call them crack lighters).

a pipe is probably better than a bong, since the active chemical in salvia is water soluble (unlike weed). that's up to you though, and if the bong allows you to take a bigger hit than a pipe, it'll probably work out anyway.

if you're not worried about being super conservative, just load the bowl up and rip the biggest hit you can. hold it in for a while, nice and deep, and then exhale and lie back. if it isn't enough, wait a little while and try a couple rips. one good hit of 10X extract will most likely be enough though.

let us know how it goes. it's a really weird, unique feeling.

 

when i broke through on salvia it was with "standardized" 10X extract, in a water bong, with a regular lighter. i took two big hits. i loaded approximately "a big pinch" in my bong's bowl.

my bong's bowl is kinda small, and i loaded about a half of bowl's worth. pack it like you would for a small amount of weed. take big hits and hold them a long time. it will likely be terrifying if it works. good luck

 

Hey, thanks for the fast reply guys. Ive just got a standard clipper lighter but i can buy a better one if needed.

lol kinda freaked me out with the

Has anyone tryed the 6x joint before.

 

i've never heard of anything smoking it in a joint, not sure how well that would work.

 

i don't think a joint is the best way to smoke salvia and breakthrough. you'll probably get a "youtube" high from that. maybe break it up and load it into the bong.

i don't mean to freak you out. but fair warning - the breakthrough is NOTHING like the giggly funny feeling of lower doses. it was very scary for me, maybe because i didn't know that it could possibly be so strong. so maybe if you are well prepared, it won't be SO terrifying for you.

 

lol its kl, ill just TRY to keep it in my mind that it is just a trip and not reality. Hmmm i might smoke the joint 1st just to try it. If i dont trip then not really bothered, ill just bong some of the 10x. My partner has also been told not to talk or laugh during my trip.

 

i've had nothing but success with bongs. basically, pack it full and try to take in the whole bowl in one hit, and hold it in as long as you can.

yeah, good luck keeping anything in your mind...

if you do it right, you probably won't be capable of talking or laughing.

 

i think there is a tolerance with salvia, that has a very rapid onset (like DMT). i think you have to get it in you in a short amount of time, otherwise you develop a tolerance and won't breakthrough.

two times when i was younger, we smoked it sort of like weed. one hit, pass it, take another hit a minute later. that resulted in laughing and feeling a little funny. 7 years later i took two hits - one big one, held it..........felt funny while i exhaled it, but went in for a 2nd hit immediately after.....i don't remember exhaling that one. and then i was somewhere else completely.

if you've read a lot of trip reports you probably know the following -
on my salvia breakthrough it felt like "reality" was a sinister joke. that THIS place was the true reality, and now all of my loved ones could sigh a breath of relief since i FINALLY figured it out. but i still wanted to escape. that is probably why i found it so terrible, because i went with the fight or flight response...and salvia will allow none of that. if you try to fight it...you probably have a more terrifying experience. if you try to flee it....well, i ended up rolling around on my couch and falling into my coffee table. it was the strongest drug experience ever, and one of the most intense things of my life.

it was like alternate dimensions flipping "through" me like pages of a book. violently. it was not pleasant slamming through dimension after dimension.

i hope i'm not tainting your trip though. i think if i was fully aware that i could "breakthrough" and it would be ever so fucking intense, that i wouldn't have lost it so bad. but because of my 1st two times with it, i thought salvia was weak. boy was i wrong.

 

lol thanks guys.

One more question and it may sound really stupid but see if you have a bad trip or anything, do you ever feel pain.

 

^not that i've heard of.

 

Ive been reading alot of trip reports and all i keep thinking about is that dream some people have about falling but they never hit the bottom because you always wake up

 

the body load is not exactly pleasant. i wouldn't call it pain, but it was uncomfortable. i was very sweaty when i came back to reality, my legs felt funny, and i had a bump on my head and some scrapes from rolling around and bumping into my coffee table

 

well my bong, joint and 10x arrived today. Unaturaly fast considering i only ordered it yesterday. Planning on doing it 2nite so ill report back later. Wish me luck. lol

 

i already did


if you want to breakthrough, keep the flame on the salvia the whole hit. don't just touch it to light it like you might with weed. take a huge rip if your lungs can handle it and hold it. then......LET GO!

 

Had a bash with the 6x joint. Complete waste of £3 but then again its only £3. I'm defo going to do the 10x 2nite.

porkstock41 - i will do then report back later haha.

 

Do what they said.. hold the lighter on it and torch it...i usually count to like 30 and by then i am there while im holding it in. i would also like to add its a good idea to put a little bit of some kind of herb on the bottom of it. I like weed but theres been an instance where i didn't have any bud and put a little bit of oregano lol the salvia is sooo fine and even if you have a screen it can still go through and you can loose/ waste some of it.

Good luck. Just remember to use it with respect.. I have found salvia to be kind of intimidating and intense from my experiences. A lot of people don't like it because they describe it as scary like porkstock described it..

I've heard of people smoking it out of a bong or pipe...
I have only smoked it out of a pipe but i imagine it would be wild and hella strong out of a huge bong rip. I usually just do a big pinch of it too.

 

hmmmm don't really know what to say. finally took the 10x and im actually dissappointed. took a big hit and thought it didnt work so i took another hit and started feeling like waves were rushing up me but i was stilll 100% still able to talk to my partner. Then i started laughing and couldnt stop but was still aware that its just a trip and that i was lying on my bed but when i was laughing i felt like their was layer of different places on my bed but felt really aware that my girlfriend was watching and that made me uncomfortable and totaly ruined my weak trip. tips anyone

 

Bigger hits. Hold it in longer. Blast off.

 

and use a hotter lighter if you can
