    I have grown sage in my garden for ages, I'm pretty sure the latin name for it is salvia officinalis, is this the same thing? We use it for smudge sticks, but I have never smoked or chewed it. If this is the same sort of salvia, and advice on how to use the arw plant? I am a COMPLETE novice on this subject!

    I don't think that Salvia Officinalis will get you tripping. You need Salvia Divinorum :p

    Why do people always ask such silly questions??? They cause pain to my brain!!! Sorry if that offended you, but Salvia Officinalis isn't a strain of plant that produces Salvinorin-A, and I think the only one that does is Salvia Divinorum. Why don't you try growing that, it's a bit harder, but it will be worth it!

    I guess I'm just a silly person. I missed the class the day they did the genus of salvia and it's biological make-up. Thanks for the reply, though, my question is now answered.

    Maybe you should get something for that over-sensitive brain of yours.
