Ahh, sorry dude. I know firecrackers as a Leary biscuit. Hehe, just get some nutella or some peanut butter (they're both full of fat which absorbs the THC), spread it on a cracker of some kind, and then chop up your bud, or powder it in a grinder. Either is good. Sprinkle it ontop of the nutella/p.butter.
Put them in a pre-heated oven for about 15 minutes. If they're smoking lightly when you take them out, you're good to go. Don't cook them for any longer than 30 minutes though.
I've never tried 5x salvia. I jumped straight in at 10x. It's pretty intense, and hits like a freight train. I found that smoking salvia was more intense, but after about 10-15 minutes, I could have a normal conversation with someone again.
Chewing salvia however is a completely different game. You're up for much longer, and you can actually reach a good level-4 on the SALVIA scale. (Never heard of the salvia scale? Read this:

Look at the bit that says: " Q. Is there a way to rate Salvia experiences?")
