Dose - What is the correct amount to use (in teaspoons, not grams)

[ftatrockisy]

SWIM sees a lot of posts about doses, but its all in grams, and swim doesnt have a scale. Can anyone say whats the correct amount to use in teaspoons, instead of grams?
SWIMs first time, they used 1/8th of a teaspoon. they packed a water bong with a little weed in the bottom to keep the salvia in, and lightly packed the bong, with 1/8th teaspoon of salvia.
SWIM thinks he messed himself up cause after he took the first hit, he didnt think he took enough, so he went to go grab the bong back from his wife who was sitting, and by that time he was already gone.
SWIMs experience was very intense and strange, but not nessessarily bad, he just remember that every image of him, every second, would be stuck in that moment in time for the rest of eternity. the stuck one would like forward into the present, and see his other self moving on and felt great remorse that he would be stuck in this when and know for eternity, and never be able to live love and have fun like the self who was continuing on.
But, then SWIMS wife tried about 1/16 of a teaspoon, and they just laughed the entire time while they danced and talked with potato chip clips.
If anyone can say what the correct dosage is in teaspoons, im sure SWIM would greatly appreciate it.

no one can tell you how much to take in teaspoons as opposed to grams...because There is no effective way to switch from weight to volume predictably...different materials weigh different amounts...depending on how fine the grind is it could change even in the same material...

Also the Extract level maters about how much to take...if a person were to buy say 10 grams of salvia from someone else they could then use that to EYEBALL out close to the right dosage,meaning divide it into equal piles untill one's found roughly the gram amount they'd need... its not an effective or even recommended way to measure anything but when one wants to be at least a little safer than grabbing a chunk and using it, it works...

to get your money's worth, pack the bowl pretty full. no way to say in teaspoons, but with regular extract, probably around 1/2. you can't go wrong. you can take another hit, or you already have a cap packed out for your next visit.

one would say about a whole teaspoon. If it were very very fine grind maybe 3/4 of one. Just ones opinion.

If one can not be bothered to get the necessary supplies for a journey, one aught not take it.

Very true.

Scales are not expensive mate, just splash out on a small scale.

SWIM doesnt use a scale, used one the first time, then after that SWIM used the scaled dose to calculate how much he needed for a desired effect.

SWIM does it by eye now. If you get your salvia in small vials (a lot of salvia sold in headshops use the same size vials), then a heaped cap ful will be fine.
Usually just a generous pinch between thumb and forefinger would do.

Salvia isnt something i would worry about OD'ing on, if your talking about heroin or something similar, then it really does matter, lol.
