hello.... Well im goin to buy a quarter ounce of salvia dried leaves. my questions are how much should i smoke? and will i get a trip form dried leaves? I dont plan on buying any extract due to buying over the internet. unless anyone here sells it. but still im not sure if i would do it. -peace -rydns
It's more difficult to get a trip from smoking dried leaves, but it is possible. What I would recommend however, is chewing the leaves as a quid instead. The Salvia Divinorum Users Guide has all the info you'll need regarding the quid method: http://www.sagewisdom.org/usersguide.html
Sure salvia works, it's just different for everybody. Also, unlike most drugs which you build up a resistance to over time, you body initially has a high resistance to salvia, and over time it will decrease the more you use it. In addition, about 10% of people that use salvia are also somewhat immune to its effects, and they require very high doses to have any sort of breakthrough. I'm beginning to think that bodyweight also has a lot to do with salvia. I'm around 120 pounds and I don't require much salvia at all to have a breakthrough compared to other people that weigh more than me.
Yep, it will take less and less to break through the more you use it. Keep in mind that may not be the case for some people, but for most that's what happens.
No problemo. Shamanspalace.com has the best prices on dried leaves, and it's the place where I always get mine.
when you chew them how much do you chew? on erowid it was like 10 grams or something....but thats alot.
10 grams is WAY too much. You only need like 2 - 8 grams to get up to level 4 (but again, all people are different). I doubt you could even fit 10 grams in your mouth comfortably, heh heh.
im gonna go with 3-4 grams. But im going to smoke some first. will a quarter ounce last long? and by the way its costing me twenty bucks thru a store supplier. It might be an ounce. thanx again -rydns
Yeah, an ounce is a LOT of leaves as long as they're dried (I've never heard of anyone selling fresh leaves anyway). It'll last you a long time, no worries.
Yes, even little ammounts of 20x extract or higher is enough. An ounce of dried leaves would be more than what you'll need to break through a couple times. Remember, the reverse tolerance! An other thing you could do is make extract, but you should get special instructions before you go pouring rubbing alcohol on anything...
mhm. Good call Colimon. Personally if this is ur first time i recomend extract easy as pie to break throw. Hopefully will smoke some omre 2moro
Hell, an ounce of dried leaves will probably last you for a good 6 to 14 times. I've been using the same ounce for over a month and I've hardly put a dent in it, heh heh.
Hmmm maybe ill give dried leaves ago...but the smoking method is my favorite. One bowl gets you ripped...simple. No time wasted.
Yeah, some people just prefer the smoking method. I just enjoy the slower more meditative onset of salvia when it's chewed. Just my personal preference since I use it primarily to assist with meditation!
Yeah, its mostly not pharmacological, I think it is more of a "been there - know the way - easier to get there next time" type of thing. It would make sense your tolerance would feel like its going down as your mind can make better sense of the intense re-reality. Like something you learn I guess is what I am trying to say. Srry if that doesn't make any sense.
