Thread: Smoking tea?

well it really depends on the person. are you a smoker? if you are then smoking it will be more relaxing for you (if you like the taste of the teasmoke) since you are accustomed to smoke in ur lungs. to a non-smoker, the smoke will most likely be un-enjoyable.

Well I'm kind of an ex-smoker, and I want something to smoke.

I have only heard of Anti-smoking Tea to help you quit smoking.
it's pretty pointless smoking anything damages your heart and lungs.

Drink it

That blend will very likely taste bad and be harsh and cause pointless harm, plus none of those ingredients are psychoactive enough to give substantial effects when smoked. If you want to experiment with smokable dream inducers then browse an ethnobotanical retail site and read the descriptions, or go to erowid or some other site and study plant ethnogens.

Inahaling any form of smoke isn't good for your bronchi or bronchioles in general. If you're an ex-smoker stay that way if you can. Smoking anything can undermine your mindset of staying a non smoker an increase your health, lung capacity, decrease risk of stroke, and countless other things. Drink the tea for your own health.

I once tried to smoke some dream tea and found that the ingredients just didn't burn right and it completely failed.

Haha I totally tried that, and I didn't find a difference.

Would smoking it be more or less effective than drinking it? I know all smoke contains carbon monoxide, fine particles, and some carconogens, but it might be more enjoyable to smoke it than drink it.

Maybe it would work but it would also hurt the lungs going down
But it could be a fun lucid

My point of view on this is that it's probably useless. The herbs you mentioned are popular for teas because thats probably the best way to injest them. Burning it might destroy the components you want or it might not even volatilize them at all. Plus I always found the relaxing effect of a camomille tea to be helpfull for my dreaming, smoking crap gives headaches.

The active ingredients of the herbs in the Tea you mentioned are more likely to be destroyed, or most of them, when burned in a cigarette/joint. So drinking the Tea seems like the ideal way of ingestion to reach the desired effects; You get all active chemicals contained in the plants. Sometimes some of these plant substances are water insoluble; Like THC in Cannabis. Thus this herb is usually smoked. Most herbs however, like Tea, Mushrooms, Chacruna & Caapi (Ayahuasca), Chamomille, lavender..etc are perfect for water-infusions, 'cause their main active substances and essential oils are watersoluble.

I really don't think smoking helps.

How did this go? Or have you not tried it yet?

I once had no tobacco to make a joint.. so me and my mate used a flavoured tea bag.. I said to him bring something nice.. like cherry.

He brought PINK GRAPEFRUIT..

man the little flavoured bits would fly to the back of your mouth like on fire.. was a really weird sensation. But tbh smoking tea was pretty good. I haven't tried for dreams. But I guess its gotta be miles better than tobacco. Great for quitting smoking.
