I used some of these. now we cant import them anymore it seems. leaving me to figure out what I can find here that will be useful to smoke.

now I would like to know if anyone here has smoked nettles ? . I love nettles so smoking them would be an brilliant idea. going to do this later tonight.

are there anyone here that knows specific plants that you use for something in smoking blends I would like to hear about it.


and by the way., you would do me a big favour if you kick that idiots ass that is responsible for making it harder to import any of the good stuff on that site . I need that smoking herb yerba santa and osha root and other items such as natural fresh dried tobacco leaves.

thanks

Have you tried doing a Google search to possibly find a seller in your area that carries the herbs listed? Just because you can't order them from the United States doesn't mean that there isn't somebody in your country that sells them. I'd be very surprised if you COULDN'T find a reputable merchant in your part of the world.

My supplier cant get them anymore. I will have to wait for her to get in touch with people who where over there to get it. she is adopted into the lakota tribe and sells stuff like sage and other things but tobacco and smoking blends we cant import anymore she tells me.

this annoys me to no end if that's true.

btw I smoked some nettles just now. not bad actually.

This looks cool. I already smoke lavender sometimes mixed with tobacco as it changes the quality o the smoke. I'll have to check it out some time when I have money!

Has anybody tried Damiana? I'm a fixin to purchase me some!

Lavender, Catnip, and Mugwort are all easy to grow and take up a very small amount of space to start.

I smoked catnip and sage once when I was trying to quit smoking. While it didn't help me quit in the end, It did give me an unexpected head buzz.

well, basically i think you one way to go would be to dry the nettles, mix it it to some tobacco, roll the result. It's also possible to have the nettles marinate into alcohol all night before you start drying them, depending on the effect you seek.

no....but if it grows here I will find it someday should be able to give a mild buzz along with catnip it says on the sites infopage. sounds interesting.

I got lavender growing. no catnip to be found in the wild here where I live but I will find some and try steal it from the forest and plant here. mugworth is a plant I been using a lot but I am not sure if it grows around here. if it does I certainly will have interest in growing it. I imported it back then.

I also smoked sage once in a while. it can produce mild hallucinations. depends what sage it is. salvia divinatorium is a drug that is more powerful than cannabis but take care if trying out that stuff. you cant compare these two things in anyway. I also never tried it but knows from sources around the net what it is and how its used.

the dessert sage I smoke can also be relaxing. sort of mild buzz as you describe but I also think it has to do with the catnip. not sure actually but I never got high on smoking sage. as such. then again I do not smoke large amounts of it. just a little once in a while blended with tobacco.

I just smoked the nettles I buy dried for tea. I use this in the food as well. also when its getting hotter outside I will go pick fresh nettles and as I usually just do I at the fresh leaves. and buy dried leaves for winter which I can then smoke instead. its a good idea to try alcohol on them though.
