Drug info - Some questions about Salvia...

[xBOSTONx]

Hi,

I have the intention to try Salvia and I have some questions about it before.

I will buy 5x extract. What's the difference between 5x extract and 5x extract standarized?

Also, I don't have any pipe, I would smoke it in a joint, but I heard that Salvia need to be burn at high temperature. Will it works in a joint with a normal lighter?

If I smoke it in a joint, should I mixt it with cannabis or tobacco?

How much does it takes to have effects? 0.3 gram or more?

And do you know some website that sells Salvia for cheap?

Thanks

SWIY should get sufficient Salvinorin A through normal smoking through a joint. It isn't the best in SWIM's opinion, but it should certainly have an effect.

If I smoke it in a joint, should I mixt it with cannabis or tobacco?

That is entirely up to SWIY. Salvia smoke can be quite harsh on the lungs, SWIY might find it beneficial to smoke it with cannabis, but to do it justice, at least for the first time try and smoke it on its own. Some extracts might be like a powder so it might also be beneficial to combine it with some tobacco.

How much does it takes to have effects? 0.3 gram or more?

How long is a piece of string. Too many variables to give a decent answer to this question.

And do you know some website that sells Salvia for cheap?

It is against forum policy to both self incriminate, read.... Forum Rules.
Also try: N00b Survival Guide

It is also against forum policy to Source drugs, whether they are legal or illegal in your area.

Given the nature of this forum the rules are enforced quite strictly and you risk bad reputation.

This post from Salvia Divinorum extract basics might help:

Want to know a secret? Most of the smaller vendors who make their own extracts and calling their product "standardized" leaf are technically incorrect, they are only approximating the amount but this doesn't mean their leaf isn't very close or equal to a true standardized product. Of course, the small vendor making their own standardized leaf could be telling the truth if they are buying their salvinorin from someone who has the skills and equipment to guarantee a purity, but some vendors are also claiming they do so when they are really extracting and refining their own at a tenth or less the cost they would have to pay if purchasing their salvinorin from a lab.

The Salvia Wiki has lots of information about dosage, how to use, etc.

However, whether one has a natural tolerance or not, is always best to start with salvia divinorum's weakest dose to make sure one doesn't get blown away on a terrifying experience. People usually start by smoking leaves. The dosages go as follows:

Smoked Salvia divinorum Leaf Dosages (Avg: 2.5mg salvinorin A per g)

Light: .25g
Common: .5g
Strong: .75-1.00g

Onset : 30-180 seconds
Duration : 5-30 minutes
Normal After Effects : 30-60 minutes

This is a summary of the basic time schedule and experience strengths for plain leaf. If one would want to calculate how much of the active chemical salvinorin A was going into his/her system, he/she would just calculate based on the salvinorin A leaf average (2.5mg per gram). This can be very useful if wanting to use a higher power extract.

For other questions, the Salvia Divinorum basics thread might be useful.

SWIY should be careful about mixing salvia with cannabis.

SWIM's only bad trip on salvia was in combination with cannabis, resulting in a depression that lasted several days. SWIM has never had issue with the harshness of salvia smoke, and finds it much easier on the lungs than that of pot.

If SWIY does mix, then mind the dosage. Find SWIY's tolerance before fully embracing the vision.

swim says to save the weed for after the salvia trip cus the trip can be intense, you may need something to bring you back to earth.
first time after doing it youll have an afterglow for a while (it affects people differently so you may not) but this after glow can suck major balls if you
had an unconfortable trip..
swims first time with salvia almost ruined his life, so be careful its unlike any other drug
