Haha! Coleus = inactive. Absinthe = active (beyond alcohol). Oh yes of course, that is why they are some of the best! I always wanted to evaporate all the alcohol and eat the goo left over, if that is psychoactive then we know for sure! Somebody try it!!! Keep in mind they use a very specific variety of fennel! Foeniculum vulgare var. azoricum also known as "Florence Fennel".

Aztecs blew the powdered herb in the faces of sacrificial victims!

Sounds good to me, I'd love to see it when your done. Anybody feel free to use this for whatever you want! Anti-copy-write!

Yes! Great! Keep us updated!

Make a big thing of tincture. Find some 95%+ alcohol (everclear) and soak the macerated herb in it. Then the herb infused alcohol has the medicinal properties of the plant. It can be evaporated to reduce the amount of alcohol or even completely dried to make a solid extract which could be taken for medicinal purposes, used as flavoring, etc. Also pick and dry a bunch of the herbage for later use in teas and such. Oh and don't forget to collect a big jar of seeds so you can share this wonderful herb with others and so you'll always have a back up!

ok ok

I didn't mean to do it! I didn't post it twice it must have been a glitch or something cause it wasn't me!

This should be good enough- I really don't know that much about Jade!

That's on my list of "Baneful Botanicals", look it up.

Oh shit....

Thanks, these are pretty much the "all-stars" of all the ethnobotanicals! List updated!

YES! (and don't let anybody tell you otherwise). No, not really. Torsten I like Jade 1901, Edouard, pretty much all their stuff is good and I really like the brandy flavor! I know a little about the history but tell us more! Well said.

Awesome! Thanks! If you have anymore to add please post them! The reason I post my lists so often if because y'all help make them so much better! THANKS Y'ALL!

Damn I really want one of those plants... The Camphor doesn't make the opium more effective or stronger?

Jade is probably my favorite. I've tried most of the "good" brands on the market.

which one?

They harvest Psychotria leaf at a specific time too.

This is bullshit perpetrated to get Absinthe re-legalized. Ha, it's bitter as shit but I can get it down Impossible? ... you pussy Only shit absinthe uses oil, real absinthe has herbs in the pot still and collects the essences that way!

Dude the Absinthe I drink taste like bottled alpine spring time! It's an amazing, exploding bouquet of flavor!

Nicotiana tabcum is up there, I try to do just 1 species per genus, maybe I'll change that one to "spp." though. I got Syrian Rue and another species of Leonotis. I may consider, does Voacanga and Tribulus have any traditional usage? Does Phalaris spp. have any traditional usage?

here's your list- http://www.shaman-australis.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=29451

Then just soak wormwood in any kind of Absinthe. I'm not sure high thujone is point....
