Apologies is this is considered digging up the thread. I've been reading up on Coleus and I read somewhere that a mexican tribe referred to the Coleus plant as the 'male' and Salvia divinorim as the 'female' and they would make a brew from the two when they practiced their ceremonies. Due to the fact that Salvia D. is illegal in Australia, I looked into other species of Salvia and realized that I've got a strong Salvia coccinea growing out the back. From what I read, smoking Salvia coccinea produces a calming effect, which lead me to believe that there is an active alkaloid in the plant. But as with most plants that don't have much information about them, all you can do is hope and try. Two nights ago, I decided to give it a go and see what would happen. I gathered 40 or 50 leaves of S. coccinea and 10 leaves or coleus blumei and made a tea, which didn't taste nearly as bad as a straight coleus tea. About an hour later, I drove around to a mates, picked up some potent weed and and came home. After smoking 6 (I think) buds, I sort of blacked out/went into a dreamy state for about 6 seconds. I then got up, and started seeing visuals. I'll point out here that this was my first mild psychedelic experience, I've tried a small dose of psilocybin mushrooms, but only experienced a nice body load. The visuals seemed to be what looked like faces coming towards me constantly, I can't really explain it much further. Anyway, I went inside and looked at my floor, the dirt on the cement seemed to morph into small faces. I then hopped on my computer and noticed a distinct blurred vision. After about 5 minutes on the computer, I got up and looked in the mirror. I noticed that my mouth was almost completely dry, which was really uncomfortable and unusual, I never get dry mouth from smoking weed. I sat back down and closed my eyes. What was really interesting for me is that I was hearing noises, though I can't distinctly remember what noises they were, I can confirm that they weren't real. Anyway, From what I can remember, I saw a green tunnel that was bending as I went through it. About minute later I got up and vomited outside. I'm not going to go into detail here, but it was extremely unpleasant vomiting with a dry mouth. Afterwards, I went and got a drink of water and went to bed. Setting: - No THC tolerance (had not smoked in a couple of months) - At home, Saturday night - Cold and a little bit sick Effects: - Dry mouth - Anxiety - Mild/weak visuals - Music sounded great and had me feeling emotions - Hearing sounds - Can't remember much (probably the marijuana doing that though) I'm not going to repeat the experience anytime soon, as it was really unpleasant for me, but I will try it again one day. This definitely deserves some more exploration, I'll see if someone I know is willing to try it and tell me the effects that they experience. If anyone has the chance and is willing to do so, it'd be great if someone could do some research and exploration of the combination.
