Hey guys. My entire city is basically dry. So i went out in search of other alternatives. My research sparked interest in Leonotis leonurus (lions tail) So i headed off to a hippy shop near where I lived and brought a 30x extract as well as some flowers mixed with some dry foliage. I put the extract in my drawer and forgot completely about it while I rolled a few joints of the leaves and flowers I had bought earlier that day. I had also bought some long papers (10cm). When smoked they burned quite hot and almost seemed to hit as a vapor (very light smoke) Some reports had said the smoke is harsh. however it was quite nice and tasty when packed VERY dense (poked down with a pencil to pack it). My first thoughts was that it calmed me down to a very very relaxed state but it didn't feel harsh as oxycodone or something similar. I felt as calm and almost as uncoordinated but my head was clear and light. The best way to describe it is light and fluffy. After 15 minutes a stoned feeling set in about half the strength of a joints worth of decent weed. This lifted after 45 minutes and left me feeling light and zippy, very cheerful and still nice and calm. Unfortunatly the effects lasted about as long as it took to smoke as I had to have a couple of blunt length joints to reach this state. So today I went out in search of a plant. It was quite amazing, the first place I tried had one and I found it in about 5 minutes! (apparently it is rather rare in this climate) and it was already in flour! So I picked this lovely looking plant up and scooped some of the fallen flowers back into the pot and went to pay for it. It was quite costly due to the fact it was three and a half ft tall! But i shelled out the $55 for it and took her home. This time I have rolled two joints of some of the dryer but still quite fresh flowers and (they are like fluff not petals so they don't have to dry much) and the 30x extract I forgot about! as well as placing a large amount of fresh and dried flowers and petals into vodka after griding and bashing them in a mortar and pestle. I look forward to later tonight smoking my fresh joints as well as trying some of the vodka which apparently only takes about 4 hours to get some psychoactive properties. I shall post later tonight with a fuller report Also 4 hours till my friend comes home with some more weed. I have savored about 2 grams for a week and a half!
Note, just drank my extract in two large lasses of orange juice. I will say is AHHHHHH KILL ME! It was burningly bitter! Painful bitter that had me gagging
Keep us informed dude, I have been researching Lion's Tail, along with Blue Lotus and some other herbs to try. Let me know if it's worth it.
Well the fresh flowers and extract smoked was amazing. I prefer weeds effects more but the color enhancement of fresh lions tail was. Creepy. A hallway with yellow light had bright shimmers and glows. Slightly more visual that weed but almost without the stoned feeling I smoked after I drank my alcohol extraction so I had about 45 minutes of effects from the smoke before the extract started to kick in. I thought my extract would be rather good at it was a dark yellow, almost brown. Unfortunatly a drop had me gaging and running across my house desperately trying to get orange juice. Apparently the more bitter it is, the better. Judging from various reports I had read. Once I had finished smoking (mouth still bitter) I enjoyed the the very definite color enhancement effects of smoking it, and then I assume the alcohol extract hit me. It came on in waves a few minutes apart that hit in a VERY noticeable way. Firstly it cleared my head and made me feel warm, happy and talkative (Strange experience when you are alone) Slowly very visual effects came on. After about 1 hour and 10 minutes from when I drank the extract I suddenly realized that the visual distortions were making everything very difficult. I was unable to write on this forum as the brightness obscured everything in my field of vision. Then i managed to get upstairs moonlight cutting beams in front of me as if there was mist. I notice at this point my sense of smell was VERY good. When I got into my room I turned on my light and it took about a minute for me to see anything except painful white shadows. It was like my eyes were overexposed. I looked at a poster on my wall and all the colors were merged and I could not really make out any text. After a few minutes my eyes adapted to the light and everything seemed to glow and shimmer as if in a fantasy movie. It was very very cool. I was so relaxed I thought i might be dosing off when my phone rang. It scared the hell out of me. It was my friend Abby who said she was waiting for me outside. I let her in and we go to my room. The Lions tail also had an effect here. She said I should drink it more often, I agree as sex basically felt better, as well as lasting a considerable time. Once we fell asleep I had an amazingly vivid dream which I can still remember every single detail of, I remember details better than that of things I have seen today. The dreams plot was very complex, involving mistaken identity and getting framed for a violent corner shop robbery with two of my friends. Awesome car chases followed over a day and a night (in the dream lol) The atmosphere of the dream was amazingly intense. I remember the feeling of total panic when a police car rolled by the ally we were hiding in. The feeling of total stupidity when I tried to hot wire am Mr2 from the front bonnet. The dream never strayed off onto unrelated tangents and unusually had a very definite dramatic ending where the police busted the real robbers and we all started laughing. All in all, I would strongly recommend some experimentation with Lions Tail. None of the effects (except the visual qualities) are as strong as weeds however they are much more varied and just as interesting.
