Wow, who knew household sage could be so strong?

OK, so over the past week I soaked a whole bottle of regular sage from wal-mart in 70% rubbing achohol. The baked in the oven on 180 for 4 hours to evaporate (b/c the other 30% of the achohol was water) and then collected the residue. I'm now on my 2nd bowl and the effects are amazing (for sage I guess). I'm expiencing mild euphoria (about 50% as strong as an equal amount of mids would), some interpted process thought (it took me about 2min just to type that last sentance), radicly increased rate heart, heavy weed like sedation, The need to move my facial muscles just to feel to weed-like skin sensations. Sorry I have to just update thing later I think I'm entering a salvia like Experience and it's hard to concentrate. Just one last thing before I go, Please don't get all riled-up saying that there is no salvitoren A. or w/e in regular sage, b/c there mmey be a simalur thing in it, structually and effeckually.,

 

oh sage 4 sure has some lil high toit..i've never tried it that way however but i enjoy smoking sage alot
household sage means nothing though theres hundreds of smoking varieties hundreds ogf cooking varieties and hundreds of aromatic varieties and each 1 has different properties
i wont get the same effect from smoking a typical cooking variety u might from a smoking one

 

Do u mean that stuff that u put in ur house to make it smell good?

 

This sounds an awful lot like one of the skullcap, passion flower kind of thing. Smoke those, i get nothing. Smoke tar resin, still nothing. Anyone else care to see if it works before i spend any time seeing for myself?

 

would it be possible for you guys to post the best smoking variety?

 

I have Salvia officianalis. I can't seem to find much about sage varieties on the net. Not the ones that contain entheogens anyway. supposedly S. officianalis contains thujon. WHich could obviously be made into a conentrated form with alcohol such as in absinthe. Interesting. I've been interested in thujone for a while. Maybe I'll give this a try. Report back later with the results.

 

I used to smoke cloves and Salvia Officianalis (regular sage) together, and I got a nice calming buzz a number of times. It was very similiar to what I'd imagine skullcap would feel like, a calm warm numb buzzing feeling. It was pretty nice.

I like the extraction, i'll have to try it out sometime and get back to you.

As far as smoking sage goes, if you don't expect anything special, you'll be pleasantly surprised, but if you expect to get high, you'll be totally disapointed.

 

Hey guys, got the sage soaking. 2 Days left before the trial but I just read that thujone is infact a carcinogen =(.

 

However it is able to be metabolized as long as your digestive system and liver/gall bladder (gall bladder and splien are very inportant in the effective control of harmful entities within the body) are functioning normally.

 

Unfortunatly if smoked the gall bladder and splein would not have access to it. I could use a shot of everclear as a medium...

 

oh shut up pussy everything is carcinogenic, smoke up!

 

Finished... smoke/drink report to follow.

 

I'm interested to see the report.


I was wondering if anyone tried this -- what if you ate a whole bunch of S. Officianalis? More than you usually would in food. Any psychoactive effects from that? I tried smoking it once, and I didn't feel much.
