I am just curious... has anyone ever tried smoking legal psychoactive herbal mixtures and substances?
I heard of Blueberry Haze, a (currently) legal substitute for cannabis. Its herbal ingredients contain: Kratom, salvia divinorum, wild opium lettuce, scullcap, red clover, siberian motherwort, maconha brava, leonotis leonurus, pedicularis, baybean, blue lotus, hops, honey, vanilla and blueberry.
A guy I saw selling it insisted that its potency was 'comparable' with its 'illegal equivalent'...
Of course, its effects are not the same as cannabis, but it has been reported to induce a mellow cerebral high and sense of warmth. I'd also strongly advise against driving after smoking this. It does not show up on drug blood tests, but it does have the potential to make driving extremely dangerous (especially if mixed with alcohol or any other substances, it may multiply the effects...)
In terms of mixing, I also saw a nicotine-free herbal alternative to tobacco - Farmers Honeyblend herbal smoking mixture. It contains: Marshmallow leaves, red clover flowers and rose petals - matured in honey and fruit juices.
I heard some people even mix it with the Blueberry Haze herbal smoking blend.
Perhaps there are better varieties available in different areas, and different flavours too.
Anyone got any stories to tell about these legal herbs?

Wow, SSS, your colors and emoticons give me a headache...
I've never done "mind altering substances," legal or otherwise, with the exception of a couple of weeks on Percoset when I got my tonsils out. I was invited to do Salvia once, but it just didn't seem worth it. My friends have some funny stories though... Something about thinking he was flying over a city, then as he came out of it, he would look around and see his friends and the room, but he would look down and see his feet flying a hundred feet above the ground.
I guess, all good things must come to an end. All currently illegal drugs were once legal, so it's only a matter of time before these alternatives are banned as well, regardless of whether we list them here or not. It just depends on sales, popularity, and popular media coverage. As long as word doesn't get out to people who don't approve of drugs, it's not really an issue. As soon as some popular, beautiful teenage girl is raped and murdered by a friend while she's high, or a couple of boys decide to drive under the influence and cause a major, deadly collision, these legal alternatives will hit the news on 24 hour coverage and then it's only a matter of time before a salvia scare leads to a ban the way it was with pot and LSD. At least the current media is more preoccupied with young kids stealing their parent's prescription drugs than with adults legally purchasing a pot substitute. My only question is, do we really know that these alternatives are safe? A lot of plants that can get you high are also extremely deadly. As I said before, I wouldn't risk it.

Your are correct Mademoiselle...
"Legal" has never necessarily been a synonym for "safe". And these herbs or "substances" as they may be... aren't exclusively "legal", they are just under the radar for now. Driving after drinking "Jimson weed" tea wouldn't be a "legal" action. Nor would hanging around the police station after ingesting Salvia divinorum - well, at least it wouldn't be a good idea. Drug laws get quite confusing, especially when you consider (a.) mixtures - it really makes no sense at all. Taking one drug to enable the effects of another drug - amazing.
It just depends on sales, popularity, and popular media coverage.
And we, the proud and free - should do our part to keep such things safe.

try to stop that mexican shit from comming over the border
Well, until first harvest - as Chief of Herbal Homeland Quality Control, I have enacted emergency measures to actually provide immediate access to that "mexican shit". This is, in fact, a time of war, and drastic times call for drastic measures.
I can only hope I am doing the best thing for my country...
