Hello All,
From SWIM:
It was my first time attempting to blast off.
Pre Launch Prep:
I have a wood VG, weighed out 40mg of spice, bed of weed ashes in the VG to place spice on top of, electric butane lighter(not jet flame type).
I did a little bit of meditation before blasting off as I was a tad bit anxious. pretty silent, tabletop fan on(low hum). normal room lighting. some direct and indirect lighting.
Smoking:
Sat on bed and attempted vaporizing:
maybe 6 seconds, held for a few seconds exhaled, clean exhale
maybe 10 seocnds, held for 10 seconds, exhaled, white exhale
same as above and really started to feel weak in body, shaky arms, but I knew to keep going
last hit. slower inhale i felt a lot of smoke coming through and it felt like something hit the back of my throat and I could not really hold it in. I let out a big cough/exhale and felt pretty weak and felt I should lay back.
Experience:
I layed back and tried to close my eyes, but I found it difficult to keep my lids closed, they were kinda of twitching to the low hum of the fan. The direct room lighting also seems to affect being able to keep my eyes closed. I pulled a pillow over my head and was able to keep my eves open while maintaining darkness. I started to see some visuals, while my mind was running all over not knowing what was going to happen. I had some moments of clarity, but jumping all around. At some point during the experience, I felt myself let go and it felt like my eyes were about to roll into the back of my head. At the same time, I felt like I was getting sucking into a vacuum. It maybe lasted a second, but I never got fully sucked in. Maybe 7 minutes laying down..started to relax near the end and just lay.
Visual Description:
Very faint, but it looked somewhat like looking into the middle of a tornado from the top of it. Instead of seeing wind swirling, I was this flowing swirling dia-grid that was faintly purple and red; colors where throbbing between each other. I mean VERY faint. At the end of the tornado it looked like a eye that I wanted to get to, but I couldn't.
2nd attempt:
Turned fan off and direct light. same prep. Same inhalation, no coughing.
Experience:
No visuals, but I was slipping in and out of a dreaming state, I was having mini dreams. Almost lucid. One dream that stood out was I was attempting to get a package was I needed. The package was gone/intangible. Other little dreams occurred, but I hardly remember.
Overall, the wood VG it's hard to see what going on to see if I got it all vaped. I'm not sure the ash bed was good. I think there's a lot of spice trapped in it. I may stack up some screens on there. on ditch the ash.
Any other smoking methods that I can try?
Thoughts? Anything I did wrong? How can I ensure blastoff? I'd hate to keep wasting spice.
Thanks.
