I've tried x5 Salvia a few times now over the past few years and I have to say that this is the trippiest shit I know off, although it only comes on strong for a matter of minutes, then it's just a sort of pleasant stoned affect for the next 20 minutes. I'd reccommend x5 to start with and if you can handle it and you enjoy it then you can skip right up to x15 or 20. It's easy to underestimate the strength of salvia and it has little social quality (as someone else said, it's an entheogen and I think it was used by aztecs for spiritual enlightenment) so I wouldn't advise you to light it up at a party cos trying to communicate during the full affects of salvia will probably just confuse you and ruin the visual quality of the drug!

Smoke it with some mates in a dark room with some cool music in the background and maybe a small candle light to help bring you back to reality. And make sure you use a turbo lighter to heat it in the pipe or bong as Salvia works best at very high temperatures. Sometimes you hear people moaning because they smoked it in a spliff and felt nothing but it just doesnt get hot enough.

Next time I'll try x10 or x 15 because I've exhausted my tolerance to x5 now and last time it wasnt so strong, but still very crazy!!!! I normally feel displaced for three or four minutes, sometimes in a boat in the ocean, sometimes in a green house in a garden or in a street full of people. Once I was playing Super Mario with a mate and when he took a few hits of Salvia he said he felt like he became part of the game and was jumping around with mario (even though in reality he was just sitting still with his eyes closed). Atmosphere and mood is important and I dont abuse Salvia like I do with other drugs and alcohol. I have so much respect for this drug.........
