I've never plugged before. I've got a series of RCs I'd like to try up the arse. I'm wondering a few things: 1) Potency: my research tells me that I can expect any drug to be about 2 times as potent when plugged as compared to oral. Is this a fair statement or would you say a different figure is more accurate (say 1.5 time stronger, say 3 times stronger)? 2) Onset: my research also tells me that the onset time is likewise about 2 times quicker. Is this a fair statement or is it something more like 1.5 quicker or maybe 3 times quicker? 3) Duration: this is the only thing that's been somewhat scarce in my research. My first guess was that duration would also be twice as speedy. I say this because in my experience, the shortest lasting drugs are also the ones with the quickest onset (salvia, nicotine, 5-meo-dmt) whereas the longest lasting ones are also the ones with the longest onset times (acid, 2Cs). So if plugging cuts the onset time in half, I figured it might do the same for the whole duration. But of the few hits on this in my research, I did find something that said plugging morphine results in a trip twice as long. So this is the point on which I'd like much info if you have any. I guess I should also ask whether this would be consistent across all and any drug, or does it depend on the drug? For example, would one drug last twice as long whereas another lasts only half as long? Also, how much water should I dilute the drug in? I can usually disolve it in a shot glass worth of water when doing it orally. I wouldn't need any more than this would I? Thanks for your help.
I'd say everything you've gained form your research is relatively correct. Duration would, as expected, probably be cut in half or 3/4. I'd assume your basically getting all the substance into your bloodsteam at a faster rate, therefor increasing effects/rush, but shortening duration. Only makes sense.
Note: I've only ever plugged 2c-e, DPT and aMT. 1) I believe potency as a plugged ROA is relative to the drug. Some drugs absorb well in the butt, others don't. I've plugged 2c-e, which is apparently supposed to be about 2x as potent when plugged as compared to oral 2) The onset has been quicker in all my experiences. Syrian Rue + Plugged DPT = Instant onset. Plugged 2c-e kicked in about 1.5 times quicker. 3) Well, in my experience duration with 2c-e was maybe somewhat shorter, but not by much. I think it actually removed some of the "speedier" aspects of the trip such as the jaw clenching and stimulation long after psychedelic effects wore off. aMT was another one that lasted about as long. I wouldn't be too worried about it cutting durations. As for how much water you need, use as little as possible. If you can, dilute it in 1-2ml of water. Too much water will not feel very good. I was able to dissolve 100mg of DPT in I think 2ml of water using a little bit of heat. Adventure away
