Does it get you high? Why is it legal? Im not sure where to post this but if its in the wrong spot please move. thanks.

I moved this over to flowers & herbs.

Most taste terrible & will not get you high. Some like salvia divinorum do get you high, but from what I hear, it's not somethin' you wanna mess with.

Search using salvia as the keyword & search on titles only.

Salvia, especially the extracts (5x,10,15x,...) are hit or miss. Some people report that they are completly unaffected by the plant. I myself have smoked all of the extracts 20 and under... and some times it induces heavy hallucinations and other times I was unaffected. There is a complete loss of realitly and ones self in the heavy trips followed by the idea that you will never want to try it agian (but when its around... why not?! haha) Salvias the real deal... as far as other herbs that are sold as "like pot" nuggets, i would steer clear

unofficial word on the street is salvia will soon become illegal at the fed level i think, just word of mouth so I dont have a link

Salvia is one of the few legal herbs that WILL get you high, but from what I've heard and read, it is a pretty harsh high. And as has been pointed out, The Man is probably going to shut the door on this, too.

I agree with toshiba -- stick with weed, it works right.

I bought the legal buds once. It was a bad choice. Don't do it. It's like....horrible. Just horrible.
*shudder*

Stick with weed. It's better to go without weed than to smoke the legal herbs.

Salvia is sweet.

there some legal herbs that do produce mild effects; wild dagga (Leonotis leonurus) for one... Which is quite fun to grow... but also mildly addictive so be careful...
Also Calea zacatchichi is another good one for inducing a mild dreamlike state... Best smoked right before bed for enhancing the dream world

As for salvia; I do not like that herb

best just stick with good old weed really

Heavy duty. Not really a recreational thing though, more of an experience (Insightful? Scary? A strong mix? Yea).


But, if you're into heavy trips and experimenting, very worthwhile. Do the 15x + extracts and pack a good bong hit. Hold it in for 30 secs and by the time you're trying to put your piece down, the world drifts away and so do you.

If you are looking for "legal bud" to be a substitute or comparable to cannabis then no, it does not have the same effect.

As was mentioned, wild dagga is a herb that does have it's own effect though.

Bottom line I guess is if you are looking to "get high" by smoking legal herbs (with one or two notable exceptions, like salvia and wild dagga), you will be disappointed. If you are looking to quit smoking cigs, or to add flavor, or any of the multitude of other reasons, then some legal herbs will be a benefit.

Just like cannabis, these herbs have been around and used for thousands of years.

Here is a review of legal herbs that Rick wrote up a while ago, if interested.
