Ive heard you have to use a torch lighter because a normal one wont heat it up all the way. is this true? and should i wait until i get a bong in the next few weeks or will a little pipe be fine?

and i will have my friend next to me watching over
 
Yes, the flame has to be very hot.
Keep the lighter the whole time at the salvia.
I suggest mixing it with some tobacco.
This will also provide more heat.

And a bong is imho better.
You can suck more smoke and more easy in.
 
i've smoked salvia x30 once and blacked out and had a very weird experience of dellusion...and i spilled my bong...
 
You don't necessarily need a torch lighter to smoke Salvia. I have a lot of experience with this plant, and I've never used a torch lighter, just an ordinary bic-style or clipper lighter. Smoking technique is a lot more important; it is best to keep the flame on the Salvia for the entire inhale, or as long as you can tolerate the heat. Use a short pipe, rather than a huge bong. Take a big lungful, and hold it in for at least 30 seconds. You should be feeling the onset by the time you start to exhale. If not, take another hit.

The Salvinorin will vapourize with a normal lighter, provided you inhale it strong and steady. Note: If you inhale it too fast, you may cough it all up. A torch lighter will probably allow you to inhale it slower and more comfortably whilst still maximizing vaporization. However, I've always broken through without one.
 
I never used a torch lighter.
I've broken through on 20x with a bic. Just take deep tokes holding them in, and burn the material completely.

Lady Salvia is merciless, go to her with much respect. It's a very intense experience, my breakthrough was beyond extra-dimensional.
Very scary, and even more eye-openingly beautiful.

Safe journey my friends
 
Ya im all set on how to do it. Im just nervous. this is my first psychedelic experience and i really want to have my ego shredded up but at the same time i am nervous. i feel like ill try to cling on to reality when it comes on

What about your ego? Lol.

Honestly, salvia isn't that enjoyable and it's not really that much of a decent "psychedelic experience."
 
salvia isn't even a hallucinogen its a fucking dissociative and it blows major ass. Do yourself a favor, throw that shit out and go find some acid, you will be much more satisfied.
 
You remind me of myself before psychedelics.. nervous and scared of a bad reaction. Because of this I am going to give you tips on how to have a good trip by telling you things i have used that have worked for me as long as many others i have heard from.

I would most definitely use a bong with an ice catch to cool the smoke as it can be very hot and quite shitty tasting.

These are some things that might help reduce the chances of a "bad trip" and most definitely helped me and others that i have heard by word of mouth or have read on bluelight:

Make sure you are in a comfortable setting and will not have any startling interruptions.
Go into the trip with a positive mind. Some people usually go in with a goal or question looking for answers. This usually helps guide people through the trip and keep their mind off of negative thoughts.
If you feel like you are slipping away into ego death DO NOT try to fight it as many people have and only made them more frantic... bad idea!! Just let go (very frequent saying among psychonauts)and look for positive things as opposed to negative things.. Thinking negative will most likely produce a negative experience.

Good Luck man. Have fun and let us know how it went for you.
 
A tourch lighter helps but is not a necessary. My first time I smoked 15x with just a bic and completely broke through beyond imagination. While salvia may not be the best option for your first psychedelic concidering how powerfull but also in some ways it may be good since it doesn't dig up personal issues in the way mushrooms and lsd do. I indroduced salvia to a friend that had never done any other psychedelics and had only done alcohol and weed a small number of times but he was a very smart kid with a strong mind. He ended up handling it very good and did not freak out or act like an idiot.

I prefer doing salvia alone but since it is your first time it is best to have some one trip sitting you. Just make sure you do it with a friend that is pretty chill, put on some relaxing intramental music, and get reincarnated.
 
Your nervousness is your ego trying to convince you not to do it.
I'm shocked to see how many people on here are knocking salvia...

It's not acid, or shrooms...its salvia. It's not the sort of psychedelic drug you can take and expect to have a "fun" time and look at all the pretty visuals. It has been used for centuries by shaman in mexico and south america to reach other planes. I feel it is a most unique experience and reaching that place is worth it, even if it is just once.

Comfortable set and setting and you will be cool.
 
Well I did it. Didnt break through though because i have a really small little pipe i was using so it took too long to refill it so i wasnt able to take quick hits 1 after another.

Definitely felt it moderately though, everything was wierd and i said some stupid shit

i wanna do it with a bigger pipe.

edit: it also felt weird to have my friend there watching me. like i wanted to trip out but i was being judged even though he's my good friend. i want to do it alone next time.

Many users experience a reverse tolerance with salvia, ie, you trip harder the second time you do it. This was certainly true for me. The first time I did it (with 20X), I just leaned back and watched the ceiling do some weird things. The second time I did it, my ego was literally ripped to pieces, then put back together within the span of a few minutes.

Many dislike salvia, but I for one enjoy it. It's always confusing, unfamiliar, and sometimes a little frightening. For me, it's like a roller coaster ride. Another strange thing is that after taking it, I forgot that I smoked anything (this happened to my friend as well). Instead of thinking that the effects I felt were due to a drug, I though I was experiencing some new, strange reality.

I've done salvia alone a few times, and understand why you want to. The first time I tripped alone, I thought it would be different because I wouldn't have another consciousness to meld with (This thought occurred after I inhaled. Afterwards, I realized my stupidity). However, I would suggest that you have a sitter with you at least for the first time you break through.
 
Salvia is one of those substances you do every once in a blue moon as it rocks your mind. My last time using the said substance I was 20. I was repeatedly looking under the couch of my parents house thinking a circus was taking place. I could hear circus music and all. I thought I was going insane and it scared me intensely. My dad and mom were laughing at me historically which added to the circus sounds like people laughing in the crowd. Lol
