Lavender...

[(We'll call him B)]

Was wondering how many of you super healthy FC members vaporize lavender on a regular basis? If so, where do you get your lavender? Do you use it dried or wet? Do you grow your own? What other herbs do you vape, "besides the obvious" /?

Hi, this thread has some info on Lavender you may find useful:

http://fuckcombustion.com/threads/legal-herbs-an-idiots-guide-hopefully.9615/page-2#post-398980

I haven't tried it myself yet, but have some growing in my garden, so will definitely give it a try

I have a large bush growing on the west side of my greenhouse that produces very potent lavender flowers, I really enjoy the relaxation mixing it with MMJ in my SSV brings. Thanks for the Link, I'll beam over and check it out.

I use lavender in an aromatherapy dish, but I've never vaped it - it sounds great though!

I would also be interested If anyone has vaped Moxa aka Mugwort? Or done Moxabustion?
And if you really want a kick, drink chamomile tea whilst vaping the lavender/MMJ.

I'm looking forward to trying it in the new Herbalizer unit.

...This is the first and only device I have seen that gives pleasurable results for a wide variety of herbs. The lavender I vaporized in the Herbalizer tasted better then any other vaporizer I have ever tried. It was like inhaling lavender essence. Imagine being able to vaporize some Mugwort before bed so you can have stronger more vivid dreams. For me the exciting uses for this go beyond just the cannabis aspect.

here's another thread to look over

i'd think dry would work better

I appreciate the links guys/gals, however I was looking for more of an expiriences/prefrences type of thing.. with a hint of burning yourself. No one here is against human combustion right? "moxa joke"

I'm looking forward to trying it in the new Herbalizer unit.

WOW, way to use a quote to shut me up. Answers my mugwort question, and refers to lavender... bravo.

I grow lavender and other medicinal herbs under my north facing bedroom window.I vape lavender most nights on its own last thing just before shutting my eyes.waking to the smell of herbs wafting through my window too is nice.lavender works well.It brings on a deep drowsiness just before sleeptime.
When growing the plant, it likes sandy poor soil and doesnt need much water,Too much water will kill it.
Best of luck.It can be difficult to grow.there are many varieties.You will find one that will suit your climate.
Enjoy growing it.it is natures gift to us all.
I just love that picture, thanks

This would explain why my indoor is not germinating, to much moisture. Appreciated.

 

[u bwade wunner]

Germination.........I ve bought my lavender plants as seedlings from local nurseries and planted them outdoors straight away so I m not sure.

As for preparing the plant for vaping.
I just take the flowers off the plant when they are in full bloom,just before they wilt.leave them to dry in a big bowl for a few days .When the flowers are dried, just remove the stalks then grind the flowers in a coffee grinder and store.

Vaping lavender helps with anxiety or restlessness which can be an effect of too much thc consumption.those nights where You just cant shut down.W'eve all had them : ).For nights I need to shut down but cant,I either turn up the temps on my vape and take a huge hit of my meds or vape lavender to force myself to settle.
The effects from lavender I find are instant, not much visible vapor,but lots of flavour.
I found lavender to be good help when on a t-break. I t will vape, in any unit.I use the HI or the Mflb mostly.

Just vaped lavender for the first time, mixed in with some herbs. Wow, such a great flavour. I'll certainly be vaping a little lavender to help me sleep from now on. I really want to try other flowers/herbs now too!

 

[(We'll call him B)]

My FIRST INDOOR SPROUTS!

Edit: They did not germinate earlier due to low temps and high moisture. I did high temps and medium moisture and here they are.

Lavender + Kava in a vaporizer for that night when you just can't sleep. Sounds like an effective combo. The only bad thing is the Kava would taint the lovely Lavender flavor.

Mr B. -------> Buy some off BBB. We both have experience with quality product from that site.

114 grams for $8 should satisfy you for quite a while.

 

[RUDE BOY]

I may be the odd one but I love the taste of Kava Kava . I do need to try Lavender again though because I've only tasted it after Baked on good bud so never noticed any effects from it .

11 11 11 thanx for the above link .

 

[(We'll call him B)]

Bouncing bear has much more than just lavender I am interested in. You know 11 11 11 Fc would probably get a kick out of that bio you wrote about the BBB products and all of our fun.
Edit:

nice job on your trip report 11, i read it the other day... sounds like you guys had a good time.. funny how they changed your title.. didn't realize they did that hah... i thought the author always came up those.. i spent a lot of time on erowid when i was younger.. it helped me out a lot.. BBB is a cool site too.. heard of it, but never used it.. they have a nice selection of Interesting stuff, at good prices.. i really do like kava.. the flavor grew on me pretty quick.. after hearing a little about lavender, i'm interested in trying it out.. i'll have to keep that in mind.
LOL for some reason the expression on B's avatar makes me laugh.. that's a good pic. what bird is that?
