See, this is exactly why I decided to start a thread on it.
I've received Kirkii from two separate vendors thus far. Both sent the root with a basic description of it's Traditional/Medicinal uses. This is exactly what it says:
Documented uses:
1. SMOKED
to help produce clear vision when entering into trance.
2. Teas are used in rituals to assist diviners to "see" in a metaphysical sense.
3. Helping with lucid dreaming. To help one connect and communicate with one's ancestral spirits by assisting in visionary and prophetic dreams.
There is no information on dosage or anything. Personally I've found that I need at least 2-3 grams to inhibit a vivid dream. Research I've done suggests that this is a lot compared to most people who only need to take an amount in milligrams. I make them into capsules and swallow them with water a few hours before sleep. The amount I've worked up to is consistent in producing extremely vivid dreams!! There have even been a couple where I became lucid.
I guess the point I'm trying to make is there isn't much information out there on ingestion methods or dosage. On the product description the very first documented use is smoking it.
This made me wonder if anybody here has made a changa blend with it. If so what were the results?
Of course it would be interesting to hear if anybody had any effect from just smoking it alone as well. Or even ingesting it first a few hours prior to a spice or changa session.
I guess I'll just have to experiment with it and see what happens...
