vaping rosemary

Hey FC,

I have the crafty vaporiser (which is treating me niiiiicely).
I have been wanting to tape herbs, other than bud, for a while now and last night I tried vamping rosemary.
No vapour was produced when I vaped it, at all!

Is vapour supposed to be produced? It was dried rosemary by the way….

in short, no. Most herbs don't have the 'oil' content to produce clouds. Hops can give small clouds occasionally IME. If you want clouds to go with the flavour of your herbs a drop on pure veg glycerine will do the trick

Hi Dave,

Thanks for the response.
How would pure veg glycerine alter my vape?

I tried vaping rosemary using my Arizer Air. Two things I liked about it: 1) it has a very pleasant aroma, 2) it is a cannabis potentiator.

I have only one doubt: can it be it bad for my health?

Herb gardener...
Lemongrass produces vapour, and is very tasty if you like lemon....

Maybe you should check out the ethnobotanicals thread....

Mint is something that will produce minor clouds but I find it best to add to a bowl of weed for a different experience. It makes things a tad smoother as the mint has a soothing/cooling effect on the throat. Something to try if you ever want to change things up. I've even squeezed the oils from an orange peal over a bowl for some flavour.

Interesting..! Can you tell me more about that? I'm out of dried Sage for the moment, but I remember that vaporizing it mixed with MJ gave me the same impression...
Anyway, Sage will produce vapor. At least this is what I've experienced some times ago...
Rosemary, thyme and some other plants contain terpenes (?) — sorry, I knwo little about that so I cant elaborate — that enhance the effects of cannabis, that's why some people eat mango before toking and report that it makes their cannabis experience stronger. I tried vaping rosemary a few times only, and it looks like it really enhances the MJ effects.

@Winegums good suggestion on the Orange peel, I'm gonna vape some lemon zest tonight on top of a basket...
Let me know how it goes! I've only squeezed the oils from fresh peal. They contain d-limonene and offer a natural way of adding terpenes. I added it to some XJ-13 for a super orangie tasting bowl.

I'll be trying some lavender and rosemary to see if I like the taste and effects.

Thyme tasted icky too imho.
I can imagine, mostly if we are talking about the one commonly used in kitchen. Anyway there are some wild species that have a different aroma... I know of one that grows in mountain (I'll try it soon) and one that grows in the mediterranean coasts. My Sage comes from there, and is the best alternative herb I've vaped until now.

@Timstar93 veg glycerin is a common ingredient for e-juice and basically does nothing but produce clouds although please do be careful with anything you inhale

I have some lemon time in the garden, it surely has some d-limonine

I've started vaping Rosemary yesterday, alone and with MJ. The herb alone has a great taste I must say, sweet, intense and very balsamic. Mixed with MJ, I didn't noticed any difference about the effect. Dose? Method? My strain is weak in terms of high, anyway... maybe there's not much to potentiate...
Today I bought some Hops... let's see...

Lo and Behold! The transformative power of Vapor.
In the ethnobotanical thread there might be more info on rosemary. Found and shared there often. Had bronchitis and was doing eucalyptus steam trick. Pan of hot water towel over head. One drop of essential eucalyptus oil. Mentioned it on that thread. One poster mentioned several herbs to add. Dried rosemary being one of them. I think It helped me from coughing and having other problems from rough coughing. There might be other rosemary information on the 20 or so pages.
