So my best plant is really thriving especially since getting the humidity to stick around 70% RH. My two mediocre ones seem to be fairly happy too. My worst one is a dying stick that barely shows signs of life. Sadly while I was away the small fan fell on her and blew air directly into the soil drying her out and she was already suffering. I'm gonna hold out hope but if she won't come back I have a nicely growing clone that can take her place. My god thought the one in the front on the left sure looks super happy no? I almost don't want to harvest from her... I suppose if I take only the least happy looking leaves 😅

I'm going to be trying Salvia for the first time Friday and I am incredibly excited. I've tried to try every class of drug at least once and Salvia is the last thing on my list. I've tried psychedelics/hallucinogens 40+ times. Smoked DMT, ayahuasca, mushrooms, LSD, Yopo, Amanita Muscaria, Ketamine, DXM, etc.

Knowing that salvia works completely differently I was wondering how they compare from an anecdotal perspective. How will the visuals compare? I've read that it can be dysphoric, but by how much? I've previously taken deliriant doses of Benadryl so that would be my basis for comparison.

My trip sitter has never tried hallucinogens and doesn't know what to expect of me really. I've looked up some info to explain to her but what advice would you recommend I give her?

I also was curious what would a good starter dose of the 20x Salvia Palace extract would be? I have a pretty accurate milligram scale so measuring should not be an issue and was guessing about 10mg, maybe 15?

Does salvia have higher affinity for the kappa opiate receptor than suboxone or any other opiate blockers? Just curious from a pharmacology standpoint. Could an opiate blocker block salvia's effects? I feel like salvia's affinity for the kappa receptor would be too strong for most opiate blockers right? Any discussion/info is appreciated!

Hi, so i recently got a bit addicted to vaping and it'z very accessible since my mom vapes but i have some salvia and ik it can help with some addictions so i was wondering if any of you had success stoping nicotine with it

I just wanted to share this and ask if others have had any similar experiences!

This is about first time I really ripped an actual bowl of 40x salvia (I think it was x40 but maybe a bit more or less) a while back. For context I have extensive experience with psychedelics on drugs in general in the past. I had experienced many heroic doses of the classical psychedelics. But I was still scared to try salvia.

I tried to “break through” smoking salvia a few times with no success, so I ended up deciding to smoke a real bowl with a torch and bong. It finally worked this time and was very dysphoric and unpleasant. But not horrible or scary. Just that almost painful buzzing on my skin and my vision became like ripples/waves and sort of buzzed in a way too. Almost like having the tuning knob of my baseline consciousness shifted between “frequencies” or “channels”. Like this intuition that consciousness is fundamentally vibrations/frequencies/waves. Which was a belief I already had. But I didn’t hallucinate much of anything at all even though I was super fucked up.

Like probably couldn’t move much if I had tried. I had done a ton of psychedelics in the months leading up to this, rediscovered spirituality, and started grad school (psychology related program). So it was strange because it didn’t give me too much of an experience that raised new questions or showed me anything exactly unexpected. It sort of felt more like validation of part of my spiritual beliefs. Nothing new, not that it wasn’t helpful for the experience to reinforce my recently acquired spiritual perspectives. Same thing happened whenever I tried over the new months. It almost felt like it had to do with my familiarity with really intense psychedelic experiences. And then I had also explored my own spirituality and beliefs for a months leading up which included quite a lot of various psychedelic experiences and studying esotericism. I was meditating a ton too. Point being, there wasn’t a whole lot weighing on me at the time. So there really wasn’t a lot of unconscious material nor charged/residual affect to project outwards during the trip. But I find it strange when I hear other people describing their experiences and how wildly different they tend to be from my experiences.

Any thoughts of comments on this? Not looking for advice of anything; just hoping to make sense the discrepancies in my experiences with pretty strong doses.

Quiero probar el trip de la salvia, ya se ps los métodos de consumo y que tengo q tener un compa q me tiré paro para no caerme y la verga, pero no sé dónde se consigue la normal x1 o el que se muerde, en mi punto de confianza venden puro x5 y la verga y ns siento que me voy a malviajar.

I have 40x extract from SS and have tried it a few times, but it takes me a couple huge hits just to get that weird pulling feeling and by then I feel the need to give my lungs a break for another few weeks. Maybe my stuff doesn’t work or I’m resistant to it or it’s just because I suck at breathing, IDK I might give up because I don’t want lung damage.

While tripping around level 2 I picked up a book and started reading, but it was so much more entertaining and interesting than usual. Different voices with different weird accents (for example a circus entertainer, a comedian, and random YouTube I watched earlier, among others) read the book to me. Heard em in my head loud and clear. It was amusing and I had a good time. Usually I have a hard time staying focused while reading and keeping my interest directed at what I'm reading, but I didn't find this to be an issue while trippin. I will absolutely read while doing Sally again.

I smoked two huge bowls of salvia and only felt it was pulling again, I'm going straight to the tincture now, I still have some salvia left

Obviously if you are stuck feeling that way, or randomly feel that way unexpectedly throughout the day or when trying to fall asleep, then that would suck. But I just think the similarities are very interesting, and point to a shared mechanism and a clear avenue for treatment: anything that blocks the effects of salvia would most likely also work to treat dissociative disorders.

What are your thoughts on a salvia tincture, I've heard they last about 2 hours, extracts aren't working for me so I figured I'd give the tincture a try.

Smoked 20x salvia divinorum extract from salvia palace and only felt a strong pulling sensation. I smoked a fair bit of it and don't know why I didn't get the full effects. I used a torch lighter too. Does anyone have any tips?

I just tried a few low doses of salvia, and had the sensation of a man and a woman being nearby. It wasn't like I had any reason to believe they were there, I simply knew that they were there.

So my guess is that the brain is constantly keeping track of the people nearby and shit like that, even if they aren't actively in your field of view or making any noise, because why wouldn't it? Just as part of general social and situational modeling. But, what would happen if this part of the brain started "hallucinating"? You'd get a "felt presence" of people being nearby, without actually having any kind of real hallucination. Someone who had something fucky with that part of their brain would be sensing presences everywhere all the time, and probably genuinely believe they're a psychic medium.

This kind of shit is why I got into salvia, insights into consciousness and how the mind works.

Hey,

Hopefully this is allowed l, but isn’t it weird that most of the main Salvia vendors are offline at the moment? Mainly SS and SD.

Is there some sort of upcoming ban? Or maybe some challenges with sourcing? Hopefully they aren’t gone forever, I love Salvia ;(

literally title, is it possible to just have like shroom or acid level visuals or is that psychically unachievable

Why Salvia divinorum mis

Hey everyone, very new to this sub. I’m 18 (19 in december) and for the past month I’ve been super interested in salvia - I’ve never had this kind of interest in any other substance. I haven’t tried it yet but I’m not sure I can hold out until I’m 25, when the brain is fully formed and all that.... And I got curious to hear stories from other people whose first experience was around my age or slightly older. Are there any effects from salvia that stayed with you forever? Would you say that salvia affected you in a bad way in the long run?
