Thread: Hypothetical Question...Which LD length would you choose?

Thanks for the replies guys I guess longer is better overall, but as you say, if you're in a long dry spell then anything is better than waiting.

To date both my LD's were minuscule compared with a whole 5 mins lol. First one was about 1 min 30s which wasn't too bad really, but the next one I got lucid, did a conscious nose-check which failed as it should do and then my dream-eyelids close what a bummer that was! all 20 seconds of it

actually now that i think about it, 5 mins is actually quite good, i just realised that all of mine have been 5 or less, yet i somehow was able to fit in a lot of fun.

so i guess this is a harder question than i thought. but maybe every day would make it boring or at least not as special and amazing.

I'd pick length over frequency, no doubt.

I would pick the frequent 5 minute lucids. It is more difficult to remember long lucid dreams. I've had lucids that lasted hours. The length does not necessarily make it a better dream.

This is very true. One of my best LDs (IMO) was only a few seconds long.

So yeah, I would go with the five, at five minutes each, as well.

Hmm... Probably the 5 5-minute dreams. Most of LDs are shorter than 5 minutes and they're still fun.

I would go with the 5mins one, I don't want non-lucids <.<
