Ok i have no idea where to post this other than in this forum. I just recently found out my grandmother has salvia plants, just a few of them. i believe they are the red sage type salvia. i have read everywhere that the only hallucinogenic form of salvia is the salvia diverinum type. I will not lie, i just got into the salvia scene and am very interested in learning more about it but at the moment i am clueless and still searching all over for information about it. so anyone that knows anything about the red sage, salvia diverinum, etc. please let me know. also, i heard you must "extract" the part needed in order to have a trip, is that true? if so what do i extract and where at on the plant? will the red sage give me a trip? i am so lost i dont even know what to do or where to start
If it's red sage, it wont' do anything but give you a headache, and if you smoke enough, the pukes. you also don't HAVE to extract, as a matter of fact, if you're new to Lady Sally, you DO NOT want to extract...It's 1- difficult to do right unless you have some chemistry knowledge, and not easy to standardize, and 2- too easy to give yourself a dose high enough to fuck your head. Salvia's a good girl to get to know, but if you dont' respect her, she'll turn bitch on you and really shake your world. Get some straight dried leaf, and start slow. A little dab'll do ya, and I'd recommend a sitter until you're experinced. One of the most common things to have happen on a salvia trip is to forget you even ingested, and the world's always been that screwed up. Salvia can make you light sensitive, so a quiet dark room is good for a trip. Make sure you dont' have anything breakable around, becuase if you get a bad trip going (too high of a dosage), it's possible to move around and hurt yourself. I've had perfectly good trips, both sub threshold and totally down the rabbit hole on smoking plain dried, no extract fortified needed. but red sage will do nothing for you. further info on salvia, or further questions should probably go in the psychedelics forum, but I don't mind answering what I know. http://www.hipforums.com/forums/showthread.php?t=36919
