They're not kidding; VG/GVGs are key. SWIM took his newly-acquired GVG out for a test run the other day and was amazed and impressed to say the least. Instead of a glass pipe where you boil the DMT and suck up the smoke, VGs blow a stream of hot air through the chamber which carries the DMT into the lungs. There's just something special about the way the DMT transitions from solid to liquid to gas in a VG rather than in a glass pipe. There's nothing else in the world like it. It's the vapor of the Gods. If you don't want to spend $100 the VG works perfectly fine; the only difference is that you can't see the vapor and as long as you are careful about dosage then that shouldn't be a problem. My guess is that if you do get a VG you'll most likely end up getting a GVG anyway. I definitely have my eye on the Walnut VG.

I guarantee you won't be disappointed with one.

I use a GVG and I hardly feel any taste of the vapor. And the smell is far from burning plastic. It's actually kind of nice. Flowery kind of.
But the GVG is so awesome I'm seriously thinking to buy another one just to have spare If I loose or break the one I have now I don't want to be waiting
for a new one in the mail. 'Cause I'm not using anything else to vape my stuff

maybe you graduated??

Easiest way to do it is use a bubbler. Layer Weed/DMT/Weed in the bowl and clear it. If you have good DMT and you used enough, you will breakthrough. Just make sure someone is there to take your bong from you, I've almost dropped mine quite a few times

wow thank you for all the responses. i think i found the problem. its weird and spirtual or ...whatever is on the other side. what happens is the first inhale and possibly second/third go down like smooth vapor... i immediatly go into a trance. Then after what feels like enternity in bliss somthing happens like a glitch in the system or a warning ...and i'm kicked out of hyperspace with this horrible feeling. so of course my immediatly reaction is to loadup another bowl and smoke only to have the worst most foul tasting funk ever hit my lungs. I'm convinced at this point there is some sort of warning/policing system in hyperspace (of course this sounds like crazy talk) that once you've had a breakthrough and been brought back to reality ...forcefully... that any attempt to reintroduce yourself to hyperspace will have dire consequences... thus the horrific taste. I think the taste is all in my head or programmed to be there (again i realize this sounds loony)... but i think you get one shot to experience hyperspace and once its over give up on trying to reenter for another 24 hrs or so.

my technique which is in my opinion the best is to have a looooong stem crack/oil burning pipe and use a butane lighter 1 - 1.5 inches from the bowl. wait until a ugly massive thick could is exposed, inhale as deep as possible, hold... light again if possible and inhale. the initial inhale with this technique last week was perfect and i noticed that once kicked out of hyperspace the taste immediately went rancid. I know my technique is on par and i see no need for the GVG at this point as i'm hitting a breakthrough with very little spice if done right.

I'm going to launch in the next half hour.

I should also mention for whatever its worth that the last time i had a "breaktthough" it was so powerful that i could barely remember anything from it other than... "HOLY SHIT" this is real!! then i got the sensation of somesort of "glitch" in the program as if i was caught with my hand in the cookie jar and the dmt overseers immediatly shut the experience down and banned me from re-entering. Anyone else have supporting stories similiar to this? I also got a very negative vibe like "busted" at this stage and do not attempt to re-enter.

please explain

Maybe its not your time? I've heard people saying the DMT will find you when you are ready. Maybe you are not ready for this kind of journey yet? If you see DMT use as a spiritual venture why not take some time out to practice meditation or something and then try DMT again?
