since everyone is different, this may not work for ya, but it sure as hell did for me. my friends and i have found that the most effective way to smoke salvia is through a waterfall bong an easy way to make and use one: 1) get a glass Sobe bottle, a nail + hammer, and something to use as a bowl piece (you can find a cheap one for like 4 or 5 bucks at a local heady place) 2) find the little indent at the bottom of the Sobe bottle 3) use a nail to puncture the indented glass so it makes a hole for the water to drain out 4) puncture a hole in the Sobe lid and attach the bowl. make sure the bowl attachment is airtight (use some Epoxy glue or electrical tape, etc) 5) cover the bottom Sobe hole with your finger, unscrew the lid, and fill the bottle with water 6) screw the lid/bowlpiece back on and stand over a sink, container, the ground, etc.. then take your finger off the bottom hole and let all of the water drain out. this will fill the entire chamber (bottle) with ALL of the salvia smoke you packed into the bowl 7) unscrew the lid/bowlpiece and suck in all (or as much of) this HUGE hit as you can and keep hitting it until it is all gone 8) repeat as desired we found that the salvia has a huge effect when you take this entire bong rip yourself. it will be alot, but if you can do it, you will probably trip really hard. after one bowl of the salvia i was tripping out hardcore cause the hit was so huge. hope this is helpful! have fun!
