I bought some salvia extract, 3.5X. It's just one of those prerolled joints off Everyonedoesit (I'm taking it out of that an smoking from a pipe/bong) ..prooobably should have bought 5X or 10X. Is it gonna do much? Recon it's safe to do it without a sitter since it's so low? :cheers2:
Who would put Salvia in a joint? :| Sure it's legit? And I think you're OK with 1 medium hit and without a sitter. Just do 1 hit at first, wait, repeat
3.5x? I don't know about anyone else, but that hardly seems worth the time or the shipping costs. I'd be suspect of it's freshness in a joint, tho. You're right taking it out and putting it in a bong... For me, it's a harsh smoke... Water cools it. Much better.
if you are a regular salvia smoker than 3.5X will mess you up. But for a first timer. It will proble do nothing
Can you explain that? It's almost like the reverse of alcohol.. Like if you don't drink often it'll hit you harder, and if you drink a lot, it takes a lot longer or a lot more booze to get you drunk. Whereas, if you've never smoked salvia, it won't do sh**, but if you you've smoked it before, it'll hit you like a hammer. I'm not doubting you... at all, I'm just curious if you can explain Why that is? Why someone who smokes it all the time, is more susceptible than someone who's never smoked it? First time I smoked anything, it was 10x, it hit me like freakin' train.:cheers2:
well its diffornt for everyone, some poeple are almost tolorant to Salvitorin A. It doesnt effect them until they "abuse it" i suppose. It took me 3 smokes to get salvia to work. There is 2 reasons for poeple not tripping there first time, 1 is a reverse tolorance, and the other is lots of first time smokers dont really know how to smoke it. It needs to be burnt HOT and held in long. And yea what you just said is correct, Salvia is the oposite of alcohol. The more you smoke the stronger your trips are. I had a friend wonce that smoked salvia regularly, proble 4-5 times a week. After 3 weeks of that he was tripping for half an hour on 5X
But you would agree, quality can vary wildly, no? Like the 1st trip I had was a mild 10x from Bouncing Bear--and if I had balls, I'd've tripped them off...then I tried some 20x that was absolute crap and couldn't remember who I bought it from if my life depended on it (that's why you have to be careful on Ebay)! So quality is paramount, I've noticed the darker the leaf, and the less dried out it looks, the better it is!! :cheers2:
yea that sounds right, ive order'd 20X from Bouncing bear, but the 20X standardized is much darker, almost like black. And the standardized was better. I also have my own salvia plant, ive dried quite a few grams in leaves (1X) but i havent attempted to extract my own yet Ive tried the 1X before with a couple buddy's. It was wierd, i didnt really trip, i just started laughing at nothing for about 15 seconds. Then it went away and i was completely sober...it was wierd
That sounds like my friend "B", lol!! She tried a specialized form of "another herb" (you know, the kind--named after an Alaskan "phenomenon" **wink, wink**) for the 1st time. It was funny 1/2 time, the other 1/2 the time it was annoying as hell. I've just bought a couple of plants, hope they do well!:cheers2:
Didn't really know about the reverse tollerance thing.. Thanks for the replies hhm, well I recon in this joint I have enough for a couple of trips at least, so if it fails the first time I can try again. I've smoked the leaves before, it made me really hot and then cold, then hot.. etc. So yeah sounds like I'm gonna try it then. I'll let you guys know how it goes.
I only have 1 plant, its got 2 large branches off it, and its proble 18 inches tall, anyway it hasnt grown much in the last 5 months. Ive picked some leaves over time and ive only come up with maby 5 grams of 1X It takes forever to get some from my plant atleast.
Are you, by chance on salviasource.org? If not go on there. TONS of advice for growing Sally. Plus, if you're looking to use it for extract, I'd look to propagate it. Make more little Sallies. You'll only get a decent amount of leafage if you grow, I would think, at least 4 or 5 plants. They also tell you how to propagate on that website...a wealth of info there!!:cheers2:
heh this is all so funny. my friend smoked full bowls of 30x for a week, as in he finished the bowls. everyday for a week. and everyone here is talkin bout 5x and 10x
Wow thats stupid, how much did he waste? If it was really 30X then he should need less than .1G's of it to trip like hell.
So it's true, you need less and less of the higher potencies, then?? Haven't tripped for a few weeks since the 20x, which left me quite disappointed. It's true...quality is everything. Am going to try some 12x this weekend. Hopefully I can get to that place of zen again!:cheers2:
i get my plain leaf off of ebay (1 oz for 15-20$ usually) and run a simple acetone extraction. so for under 25$, i can make a gram of 20-25X considering losses. my local shop sells 20X for 40$/gram.
You're better off buying a packet of 5x or 10x from the local head-shop and lighting up like you would a nice bud. I did some 5x and ended up trying to lick the 'strawberry ice cream' that my walls had turned into. I definitely felt great after wards!
