Hello friends,

I finally got my hands on all the things I needed to blast off with my new gvg. I was a little nervous because I had never taken it alone before, and I've never used the gvg before. But after lots of hours combing through many posts (thank you, you men and women are amazing!) I had enough knowledge and confidence to do it.

I got a replacement ceramic pad to put in the lower chamber and did the melting trick before placing it into the body. No modifications needed, maybe I'll try to get a better air seal around the pad and the glass at some point.

Started out with 15mg of it. Took a few first tokes and I coughed my first inhale, took a few more tokes and started to remember that feeling, the reason I put so much effort into returning to this place. It was very nice, nothing intense. I must have taken a total of 12 tokes before it was cashed, but I was still impressed at how strong it was at just 15mg. Emotionally my experiences were very heart opening, I really love it, it's pure medicine for me.

My 2nd attempt was much stronger even at the same dose, I'm started to get a better handle on the vapor. Once it starts vapping I feel like I have to pull a bit harder, and then I can take in more.

I'm looking forward to my next experience, thanks for reading.

Best wishes for your journeys.

I also use the GVG, but I have a liquid pad in the bowl. I am curious about the ceramic stone, do you have any links about discussions?

Oh cool. No sorry I don't. I don't have a liquid pad but I can't see a difference, perhaps the ceramic filter is better at keep huge +50mg doses in it, but that's just a guess.

The VG website says "When using the liquid pad you want to try to get your VaporGenie pipe hot more quickly than normal." So perhaps it does not conduct heat as well.

Does the liquid pad work well for you?

Do you mean discussions on the Nexus, or just in general?

Either way try typing something like "gvg ceramic stone DMT Nexus" in google. That should bring up some results. If not, you can always try using google to specifically search through the Nexus (google search engine is better than the Nexus search engine) by typing the following into google:

gvg ceramic stone site:www.dmt-nexus.me

You can type anything before site:www.dmt-nexus.me and this usually brings up great results! Hope these searching tips help you out! I don't own a GVG so I can't help you there. It is on my wish list though!

Thanks TGO!
