Heroin waterlining.... what do you think about this ROA

So I've been reading about disolving bth in water and either dripping or squirting it into your nose. Here's my question... What about absorbing the mixed solution into a q. Tip or cotton ball and shoving it up your nose. The goal being to prevent the horrible drip taste people talk about and to possibly increase the absorption inside your nasal cavity
 
Not feasable. For one, the cotton would only inhibit the ratio of drug to nasal membrane surface area, resulting in decreased absorption...

More importantly, sticking cotton far enough up your sinuses to reach the mucous membranes would be a horrible experience; I can only see bad things coming from attempting to perform this procedure.

To sum it up, either learn to tolerate or mask the drip, or find another ROA to use.

Enjoy,
Cy
 
I think you would have to shove it up there pretty far to get into your sinuses to do any good.
 
I often using this ROA and like it. Sticking the q-tip up your nose will probably not work, but a lot of people using tar get it ready in a spoon or whatever, put cotton in like you are filtering it, suck it up with a syringe and then squirt it into another clean spoon. It filters it a little and then you can waterling it without a lot of the junk in the solution. Either way you will still get the taste/drip.

When I do it, I try and suck it up into my nose, close my nostril with my fingers and tilt my head so that it somewhat stays in the nasal cavity being absorbed and then blow it out so I don't swallow any and get the shitty taste.
 
No matter what method you use, if you are mixing the dope with water, make sure you use it within a few hours of mixing it with water because heroin will degrade into morphine if left in a water solution fairly quickly._DG

how long on average do you keep it in your nose and how long does the onset take?
 
Dont shove the cotton up there i have done it with duiladids and stuff just dripping water up there and find it works much better than snorting all the powder

Yeah its physically impossible for your nasal membrane to suck out the liquid from the cotton. You can try and squeeze the cotton to get the liquid out, but again waste. Just follow my instruction and you'll be fine. About the taste and drip though..... You're going to have to get used to it or live with it. Try a quick chaser...
 
Just to be clear, the cotton up the nose is not the idea that is being agreed on to be good; it is the water solution up the nose method in general.

Straight up

No, the cotton up nose is basically worthless as I stated before. I mentioned that you can use cotton to filter out all of the big chucks of undesolved tar and cut, suck it up and squeeze the relatively filter solution into another container to then snort up your nose. It helps a little bit with tar because there are particles that don't desolve, but even after snorting the filter tar/water solution, you still taste it.

Long story short, this is a good ROA and snorting the water, tar mixture, plugging your nose and tilting your head so it stays in your nasal membrane for a minute is a great way to conserve tar and produce a nice high
 
^Look closely at what you quoted. I also said the cotton was not a good idea, but that the water up the nose was...

;)
 
Chiva stings like a mofucker, man. How I used to do it, when I wasn't freebasing it off foil or before I began injecting my chiva, was empty out a visine bottle, clean&rinse that baby, drop the hop in and shake it up w/ some water. I always liked my shit dark, not too dark but not overly diluted. I like the solution thick, like I like my blunts and my bitch. Anyway, I used to just take a couple drips at a time. I've read people talking about squirting a bunch of the hop in your nose and tilt your head back and pinch your nostril, but that's just too much water IMO to be in my nose at one time....just my $0.02
 
Snorting boy is fucking child's play.



But using saline increases surface area / absorption and is healthier on the nose.

In otherwords, IV it like a man or get out?

Thats pretty reckless attitude for a mod to have on a harm reduction board where you should be trying to reduce peoples risk, not belittling them to make them feel like they need to take greater risks (like IVing which increases OD risk significantly).


The cotton idea as pointed out, is just a bad idea. Getting a drip is more because your snorting too much liquid at once. When you hit the sweetspot, you wont get any dripping down the throat, it'll sit nice and tight in the naso unless you do a nasal suckback (which you wont feel the need to do if you hit the "sweetspot" of quantity of liquid your nostrils can hold without dripping out or down the throat)

If you cant stand the drip, then consider trying either;

A) Dissolving into a smaller amount of liquid if you can get it to do that

B) Try not snorting it all in one go. Snort a little bit, wait about 60 seconds, snort a little bit more, wait 60 seconds, etc. and switching nostrils each time.


Ive been "waterlining" my drugs (didint know there was an official term for it) for years. I started doing it to reduce nasal damage and enhance absorption and enhance speed of onset. Works really well.

The max liquid ill do in a nostril at once is about 0.25ml, anymore than that and I get a throat drip or it drips out my nostril. If I have 1ml of liquid, ill do 0.25ml in each nostril, wait about 60 seconds, then repeat.
 
^ i get what you were saying... you meant the taste of the drip is child's play right?

And NOT saying snorting H is child's play, and NOT saying anything about IV just to clear it up for some people.
