I've read alot of good things about scullcap. Apparently there are three different varieties.
1. Scutellaria lateriflora (weak, dont expect much)
2. Scutellaria galericulata (supposed to be as good as bud)
3. Scutellaria nana (supposed to be as good as HIGH QUALITY bud) Erowid has surprisingly little information on it. It seems the best way to do it is in an extract form. I purchased an extract at my local supermarket, which was supposedly equivalent to 6g of root. I put one 1mL (676mg per mL unpurified root to extract ratio) on a bowl of sage, and didn't expect to feel anything. I was pleasantly surprised, but it only lasted 5 minutes. I felt comfortable and numb, a big light headed and giddy, too much so to be a placebo. Later in the day I tried drinking it, and ended up drinking about half the bottle with no effects.

Anybody else used or heard of this stuff?

yup, in my cupboard, if i take 5 or 6 pills (no idea what quantity of scullcaps in them) then i get into a dreamy, happy, very relaxed state, very comfortable
