Just ordered.. first time

I use a pipe, but a bong ought to work great. Small/very small pinch, and a non torch lighter could always work.
The truth of the matter is that there are so many things you can do to limit your dose, including not holding the hit for as long, that it's up to you how you manage.
I would say forget about rolling it though.

Basic run down of your intake methods at this point:
1. smaller hit, less extract
2. standard lighter
3. don't hold your breath as long

Good luck and enjoy!

I agree. My first time was with 20x. Just start small and adjust based on how you feel. 40x is going to be REALLY strong. So just smoke a couple(2-3) flakes. ( I know it will seem like nothing.  - Keep in mind that salvia is the most powerful hallucinogen known to man at this point).
Hold the hit in for 5 - 10 secs.

If at that point, you are not satisfied with those results. Increase the time you hold the smoke. If after holding your hit in for 30 seconds you still want more, add a couple more flakes.. -

A gram of 40X can last a long time. - so you might as well start at at the bottom of the scale.

Right on thanks...

Also, remember that Salvinorin is not tolerance-building, so you don’t have to worry about the risk of building a tolerance before getting a breakthrough experience. In fact, most people seem to experience reverse-tolerance -- becoming increasingly sensitive to the same dose.

Get 3 grains of rice. That's how much 40x you want to have a good experience.

Just use a jet lighter, and go for it.

Good God! This coming from the guy that used to smoke 100x! I hope Manny is a hard head!

I'd just like to reiterate the importance of having a sitter regardless of dosage.  My first experience (with 5x and 2 big hits held for 20 seconds or so) had me laughing my ass off at the absurdity of? Danged if I know!  I also felt like I was being lifted up, like I was lighter than air with a definite urge to get up and wander about.
People haven't been harmed from the chemical, but you can hurt yourself from getting up and running around like a chicken without a head, as it has profound effects on physical coordination and possibly depth perception at higher doses.

Welcome to the forum.

To answer you indirectly:

Salvia concentrate can be diluted with your favorite herbal supplement. About 1/4 by Volume of Salvia and 3/4 something else should be put in a 'pin grinder' and mixed in thoroughly: then rolled.

Beware! Salvia extract burns like incense, hot and long, and you'll hot box the cherry. With each puff on it you'll melt down just a little more until you can't find your hand to hit on it again ...

I call this 'trip joint' "The Ramp" because if you gauge your mix properly It'll take her all of 10 minutes to ease you into the state of being "Hammered Flat and then folded neatly in half."!

Much gentler liftoff speeds!

Happy Trails!
