New to salvia growing and smoking

So i recently bought a salvia plant.. its a good 13 inches withe plenty of leaves how do i dry out the leaves and how do i knoe how strong it is..? Suchs as X and wen i go to smoke it all i have is a bong.. and im just trying to accomplish a mild feeling.. strong enough for me to go lay on my bed in my dark room and just close my eyes and trip away with out being scared shitless haha... so how much shuld i put in my bowl to accomplish that feeling..?
Thank you!

 

i don't know how to dry, but after you do it, you'll have 1x. for higher multiplies, you'd have to make a salvinorin extract and reapply it on plain leaves. not a very simple proccess, i guess (at least i have no idea how to make it).

0.5 grams or a little more shall be enough for a mild to moderate trip. it's possible that you even feel nothing in the first tries, since salvia has a severe reverse tolerance.

use a torch lighter and try to inhale the smoke in large hits, keeping it into the lungs the longer you can. you have to smoke everything fast to feel any effects.

 

It's not like that. even if you take a small dose the shit is strong and you just wont be happily trippin in pink elephant land.

Salvia is not the drug to just get a buzz out of. it fucking crrazy.


other thenthat listen to the toursit post. he's right.

 

Haha alrite good to know.. now the next thing i have been searching the web over and over again...and im still confused on how to get 5x extract and then put it back into the dry leaves???

 

pull sd extract with solvents like etHO or the like..

 

Ummm wtf is an sd extract haha also wen i dry the leaves to i have to extact them imeditely or can i store them and save up to a good amout and extrarct them all at the same time..?

 

Things You'll Need:

• Coffee grinder
• 100 grams dried salvia divinorum leaves
• any or propane-based solvent, alcohol, butane, acetone
• Saucepan
• Strainer
• Pyrex tray
• Hair dryer

you will not get very buzzed on leafs alone, take the pulled extract and soak full leafs in it.. I srsly dont think you have enough.. sd is sold by the Kilo in bulk..

 

What Orison said. I have only made an extract once before, and it was around 3x to 5x in potency (used 50 grams of dried salvia leaves). I used 99% iso alcohol (enough to cover the ground up plant material, and then some). I would reccomend this if you want more of a triptadelic feeling from Salvia. Good luck my friend.

Also, check out SageWisdom. That is comprehensive as hell on Salvia, and you should really give it a read. He's got his own growing guide/tips, (which I haven't read), don't know if he covers making your own extracts.
