First Blend.

My herbs arrived today! First of all, this is not K2 or Spice or Incense or anything like that. I have chosen ONLY organic dried herbs by small business herbalists. I started with a big pinch of Mullein which I hand rubbed to fluff. Mullein is good for lung health, an easy smoke and it is fluffy which makes it a great base. Then I added a small pinch of scullcap, a tiny bit of clove flavored damiana and about 1-2 hand crushed blue lotus flowers. I added to this two drops of honey, and mixed it together thoroughly with a knife. I actually think a popsicle stick, or a bamboo skewer might be the best for mixing but I'm experimenting and I'll figure it out. 

This blend is very pretty pre honey mix. This I rolled this into a cigarette. The smoke is pleasant, light and just a tiny bit spicy. I had about 10-15 puffs total and the mild calming effects were pretty instant. I think that next I will try half Mullein, half Lobelia for the base. Lobelia has long been used as a tobacco alternative and actually has a chemical in it called "lobeline" which is the same shape as "nicotine" without the addictive properties. So, it can work as an awesome tobacco cessation smoke because your body thinks it is getting nicotine. 

Will upload photo soon.
