Natural substances
 

Wanted to know if any of you guys shared experience with natural herbs / wanted to know the collective thoughts on such.

I'm currently enjoying about three grams of Kratom (quite low dose) which is one of my favored herbs right now. Despite being reportedly on the side of a relaxant I find that it quiets mental background noise very efficiently & allows for sharper focus.

Kava is also nice, but the stuff online about liver damage if prepared improperly shies me away. Also have some experience with Calea Zacatechichi/mexican dream root & have had quite spiritual dreams with that. Blue lotus is cool for sleeping. Thats probably the bulk of my natural herb intake, I am getting some African dream bean (Entada Rheedi) in soon as I've had some really beneficial effects from dream-altering herbs.

I use herbs only when I'm sick. Things like echinacea, mulberry, ginger, garlic, etc. I've never used herbs to get high or alter dreams or anything like that.

I'm somewhat interested in this. Where do you get kratom from & what are the laws surrounding it? I'm a bit hesitant to try any mind altering substances for obvious reasons but maybe you could convince me into something...

I personally buy it from a local smoke-shop, just because you can get 100 grams for like $30 instantly. You can purchase Kratom online too, and to my knowledge it's completely legal everywhere in the US. It originated in southeast asia, it's a plant in the Coffee family.

Its feeling is quite mild, even in contrast to reggie weed I don't think it can even be called a "high." It just has such strong anxietal relief and intensely helps me to chill out and or focus if im having a particularly challenging day on a mental front.

Nice! Ill look into mulberry/echinacea, havent heard of those before. I particularly enjoy relaxant-type herbs in meditation, which is another topic I was wondering about in this community.

I know a bit about meditation. Haven't done it in years, but I was once really into it.

I've looked at it in the context of manipulating the subconscious through repeated visual imaginations or prompts. I've halfheartedly tried, and of course nothing happened. Self-induced dissociative identity disorder, or simple psychosis, might be another way of looking at it. Of course actually doing that is somewhat like having sex with a really attractive prostitute, but not wearing protection...

Why?

Well, I really like ponies, so maybe if I make some exist in my head I can talk to them. That would be a nice change.

You really do?

This thread about using or selling?

Cannabis.

you want to buy some herbs fam?


Just made some hash, which I'm saving alongside a gram or so of kief for 4/20


you always drop no context short replies, what does this mean?

You fucking with herbs?

You are what you eat

When did the word kief become a thing? I swear to God that word didn't exist in 2010 when I still smoked.

I believe it came around 2005 @EtH

@babylon that's dope, do you usually plan stuff for it. I'm a stoner but I'm not a pot-head so I've never planned stuff for it.

>Not having 4/20 festivities.

:wtf:

Legitimately all of the older people I smoke with say this, so its gotta be an at least relatively recent thing. Did they used to call the crystalline granules with sugar consistency on buds anything before or was it just not focused on?



Also bumping because I've got some Celastrus Paniculatus/Mugwort coming in, as well as some LSA/ other alkaloid containing hawaiian seeds that bare hallucinogenic properties. once had a terrible trip on them for like 6 hours on a mistakenly high dosage, but they serve as an almost spiritual remedy for resolving personal bad habits of thought Ive found

Those are trichomes.

So Babylon is talking about herbs & weed and he doesn't know what trichomes are?

What a poser

I'm asking eth what people round his ends called kief or trichomes, expecting some type of slang or simply an unknowing (detailed in my last comment) in response.

If they didn't know what kief was, do you really expect them to know what trichomes are? Why would I ask him "you just said you dont know what kief is, but hey, do you know what tirchomes are?" I broke the term down to laymen description to cater to someones level of expertise on a subject.

Next time, please be intelligent enough to contextually assess a sentence before popping off like a mark bitch.

My brother just showed me that Kratom stuff a week or so ago. He's using it to get off pain killers. Like addies if you take a little and like xannies when you take too fair amount. Completely legal and not too expensive. It's pretty bomb.

Kratom has been widely used as a means to get off of opiates, there are countless success stories too. I also would agree on your dosage comparison to other drugs despite not having tried addy because on low dosages I totally feel that drive to go get shit done / just a harder focus.

How do I purchase kratom?

Implying you don't know those are called trichomes. Stop reaching and making it seem like you did when clearly you didn't.

If you knew they were trichomes, your sentence would've been worded something like this "Did they used to call the crystalline granules with sugar consistency on buds anything before they called them trichomes? Or was it just not focused on"

Or "Did they used to call ______ ? We call them trichomes"

You bodied yourself with your own stupidity

ill leave a natural substance on ur mommas cuntlips.

EtH didn't know what kief was, but you expect me to type trichomes out instead of providing a laymen explanation to ask my question. You're such a joke, get out of my thread panzy. You know you're a huge faggot when you churn a pissing contest out of one of the most baseline pieces of information in the cannabis world. Should've tried talking to me about something like THC-A or THC-V before once again being a knowledge cuck.


It would be much faster for you to just visit a local smoke-shop, but if you like getting stuff online there are multiple vendors. Happyhippo has been around for a while. http://www.happyhippoherbals.com/

post in the forums more you cuntlip

My brother buys it by the oz on amazon, I'm pretty sure.

I fucking hate "weed culture". You guys are sitting there bitching and moaning about who knows some faggot words when really you should just be sitting back watching Half Baked with a blunt.

I hope thats not weed culture.
homeboy just feels the immediate compulsion to assert how much more he knows about a subject he's delved into his narnia library about. im just tryna talk about some plants.



Gonna make some mugwort tea tonight & see if it affects dreaming for me as it has done with others.

It's not just a one off Pulse being weird though. It's one of the most common "interests" I've found where people are stuck up arseholes about everything. Even more so than things like whiskey drinkers, who are also horrendous with it.

It's the type of people who put a poster of Bob Marley on their wall (listening to Bob Marley is optional), often discuss "strains" in high depth but would EASILY be exposed in a blindfold test (see every fine wine drinker for more details) and shares random shit on Facebook about how weed is the least harmful and nonaddictive thing in the world and has caused zero deaths ever (don't see mental health for more details).

These people also will agree with Joe Rogan's ridiculous belief that you need "mind altering drugs" to really "see reality".

What ever happened to just rolling a joint because you like to get high?

True as fuck. I think some people feel the need to fit into a pocket of something, & a far dumber portion of people who do that seem to allow this pocket to become a primary factor of their identity.

I think this even extends to ideological shit like why you see radical feminists with blueberry hair shrieking obscenities into a megaphone. Its the same fervent cunty obsession with a niche subject that something like the vape community in the cannabis world uses to tell everyone how superior they are because of vapor being more healthy. I think its mostly just vapid small-scale fanaticism

This is the most retarded thing I have ever heard in my life

Is it? Vaporizing buds still has its health concerns, in comparison to combustion it only really reduces the amount of tar consumed to my knowledge. I have a $150 cannabis vaporizer, it's pretty shit. The vape hit is so weak & requires so much actual toking of the device that before even mentioning tolerance I'm already like screw this shit give me a joint/bong/pipe/anything else.

im sure you weren't arguing the popularity of vape elitist fuckos, and sure the fact that vapor in direct comparison to combusted smoke being more "healthy" gives you an argument, but it's totally irrelevant to my point that vape elitists exist.

misread your post, thought you were referring to people who vape in place of tobacco/cigarette smoking

What's the vape called?
I bought the Pax2 last year. Other than the volcano vaporizer...it's the best I've tried. Gives pretty big clouds and you actually feel the hit. I would highly suggest it to anyone who's looking for a vaporizer.

The pax 2 is sweet. I just have a hard time spending 250 on something else to smoke out of when I have all this glass laying around.

Idk the name or anything but my roommate got a 60$ vape because it had some minor defect—you have to take long slow hits but man, after a half hour I'm usually pretty baked. And we only go through like 1 or 2 bowl packs worth. I have however only vaped with him like 3 times so idk much about it. My lungs are shit so I definitely need a healthier method if I'ma continue smoking after college. Edibles don't work on me, and idk if it's a mental or metabolism thing but it pisses me off haha.

I got a $10 battery from some random smoke shop and I usually buy Kurvana cartridges ($25 half gram / $45 full gram) overall pretty cheap habit.

This battery hits just fine, no metallic burning taste or anything. Unless this starts fucking up really bad or explodes in my pocket or something I don't see the need for the higher end weed vape set-ups.

I dont know much about kurvana, but with a good 70% of cheaper "Vape" pens you often get a heating element that roughly mimics an on-board car lighter that instead of truly vaporizing your material combusts it. EDIT: Just googled it, those are actually pretty cool. Thats definitely a dope set up for vaping thc.

To answer an above question, I have the tsunami typhoon vape by TPV. It has a 360 all around oven chamber that heats up to like 500 degrees max with a degree-by-degree adjustable GUI. I still dont really like it personally, I enjoy the craftsmanship/high but not the hits. AVB is a good plus too for edibles/hash making


Also, @Manhattan do you do anything with your Already Vaped Bud?

Bump....Gonna read this and drop my knowledge. wanna see the difference between 2017 and now...

That and the fact it's been legalized in some places. Canada for example has federally legalized it but each province can still make their own rules about where it can be used. So I too am looking forward to how the perception has changed.

I found out about Goat's Rue within the last couple years. Been drinking teas made with it.
