ive researched this but cant really find much and the answers vary a lot. i want salvia to last longer than the 2 minutes it does when smoked. and im looking for more gentle effects. i have 20x extract, about a gram.

should i take the whole thing? and should i chew or ive heard of people using it like chewing tobacco, or sublingually?
 
Salvia.net said:
Oral use

Although swallowing salvia is quite inefficient, chewing can give an interesting, although different experience, from that obtained from smoked salvia: more gentle and longer. The salvinorin A is slowly absorbed by the sublingual mucosa and into the bloodstream. The effects will come on more slowly (after 10-20 minutes), reaching a peak quite quickly, and then continue for around 30 minutes. In the next 30 to 90 minutes the effects will slowly fade.

A good way of using salvia orally is by making a “quid”. This is a small ball or cylinder of rolled up salvia leaves. This can be done with fresh or dried leaves. Use between 8 and 20 leaves (2-8 grams of dried leaves) and put these in a bowl of water for 10 minutes. Squeeze out the water and roll the leaves up into a ball. It is possible to add sugar or honey to improve the quite bitter taste.

Put the quid in your mouth and chew slowly, once every 10 seconds. If possible, keep the juice that forms in your mouth, without spitting or swallowing. For maximum effect, keep the quid under your tongue in between chews. The first 10 – 15 minutes you will feel little effects. It is important to keep on chewing. After approximately 30 minutes, spit out the quid. You should feel the effects by know. They will remain at this level for around 30 minutes, than slowly fade.

It can be a good idea to use a mouth wash containing menthol and alcohol before taking the quid. Treat your mouth with the mouth wash, carefully brushing the tissue of the mouth and tongue (also under the tongue). Rinse well and start chewing.

There are other ways of taking salvia orally, but the effects will usually be less strong. You could make an extraction in an alcoholic drink such as vodka or whiskey. Put a large number of powdered leaves in a (relatively) small amount of vodka. Leave it to rest for a couple of days, shaking the bottle twice a day. The salvinorin will slowly be absorbed by the alcohol. Filter the drink and carefully squeeze out the plant material. Dilute the drink with an equal amount of water and add sugar of honey for flavor. Hold the maximum quantity you comfortably can in your mouth and swish it around during 30 minutes.

2-8 grams of dried leaves that equals 100-400 mg of 20x extract by the way.
If you use it like a quid, that means chewing and letting it sit in your mouth then you are both using it buccally (its absorbed through your cheek mucosa) as well as sublingually (its also absorbed under your tongue).
 
that was very helpful thank you very much.

you could probably close this that was very thorough
 
sprinkle 0.1-0.2g of 20x into a cigarette/joint. best way imo. i hate putting that shit in my mouth. some people say the joint way is a waste but it most definitely works, and you can slowly work up to about where you want to be by smoking it faster/slower/holding it in longer etc.
