Title: smoke, tincture, quid or tea?
Post by: Merkaba on May 30, 2006, 05:13:26 PM
Smoking was too powerfull for me. 3 big bong rips in about 45 sec, dropped my glass bong on the floor immeadiately, breaking it ( never doing that again,) I have been doing the quid since then.  But do you all prefer, tinctures, tea, or quids, and why?  How do you all make your own tinctures and teas?  Fresh leaqf?  Dried?  Dosage?  What are your thoughts?  Forgive me, if I may have asked a uber redundant question.

Thanks!

This seems a good question, and I wouldn't mind knowing the consensus of opinion myself.

Seeing you've tried Quidding after you found smoking too powerful (is it just because you dropped your bong,.... bummer :(, or that it had adverse effects?), how do you find Quidding in comparison?

Smoking was like aking dmt for me.  the onset came in litereally about 3 or 4 seconds, and WHAM-O.  The whole world became flat, .... it felt like a was collapsing in on myself, and was about 1 foot tall and everything around me became 1 dimensional.  

Quidding is more..'controllable' in my opinion.  It is not frightening in the sense that you don't lose your grip on reality so suddenly.  The buzz is longer though, but the onset is so much nicer, and gentle.  I am not too sure about the tea, or tinctures.  I honestly don't see the need to do 20x, 10x or whatever.  Just plain strength for me.  Yeah that bong and I had some good memories together.  She even had an ice catcher inside the chamb er for crushed ice.  IWhy, I can recall loading up on cannibus, and filling the binger with some crushed ice and a lister/water mix in the bottom, for that, 'minty fresh' feeling!  HAHAHA.  I am seriously about to cry right now just thinking about her.  I really should get a new one.

I like quidding best.
Tincture much less than quidding, but tincture is better to me than smoking.

Some leaves outside are looking mightly lush now.

Happy happy joy joy.

A bong is a very personal thing I hope that you find another worthy of forming a relationship with, lol.

Yeah, it was the 'baseball bat over the back of the head' thing that put me off smoking, it was just far too intense (mind you, x20 for the first time didn't help matters either I'm sure).

I may look into getting a plant for Quidding at some point, but I think at the moment my most convienent option would be to find a suitable base for a tincture.
