VOLCANO Sets

I have put together a small list of herbs that can be vaporized and show an effect. Most of these plants are ingredients in legal-smoke products and are much cheaper when you buy them individually. If you have any additions please feel free to post a comment or drop me a mail via the contact formular!

Catnip (Nepeta cataria)
Vaporization Temperature low

Catnip

Catnip shows a recognizable, cannabis-like effect when vaporized. It gives a mild buzz that isn’t just placebo.

Damiana (Turnera Diffusa)
Vaporization Temperature: 150C to 175C (302F to 347F)

Damiana

Damiana is known to strengthen the nervous system and cure depression. In Mexico women commonly use it as an aphrodisiac before sex. Damiana clearly shows some effects when smoked, if you are used to smoking cannabis regularly you will consider them very mild though.

Passion Flower (Passiflora)
Vaporization Temperature: 100C to 150C (212F to 302F)

Passion Flower

Passion Flower is known for its slight sedative effects and is also used as a treatment in opium withdrawal. When vaporized, it’s pleasant but mild in taste and effect.

Salvia Divinorum
Vaporization Temperature ~230°C (~446°F)

Salvia Divinorum

Salvia Divinorum is a powerfull psychedelic which alters conciousness when vaporized. Salvia experiences canrange in intensity from subtle to extremely powerful.

WARNING!
Salvia Divinorum is a very powerfull drug, especially when vaporized.
Also it is illegal in some countries, so make sure to check the legal status before you use it.

St. John’s Wort (Hypericum perforatum)
Vaporization Temperature: (100C to 150C) 212F to 302F

St. John's Wort

St. John’s Wort is known to have mild anti-depressant effects. It’s also available in tablets and extracts.

Wild Lettuce (Lactuca serriola)
Vaporization Temperature: 100°C-125°C (212°F - 257°F)

When vaporized Wild Lettuce has a dreamy, sedative effect. Some people compare it to opium, of course much milder. It can relieve colic and rheumatic pains, also some Indian tribes use it to increase the vividness of dreams.

  2. Great list, but do you have any others? I have always wondered what Valerian extract would feel like after being vaped.

  4. Why is this review rating so low? This guy knows what he is talking about. I think everyone here should take note on what hes saying and show a bit more respect to him. He spent the time sharing his knowledge,we should spend some time taking it in and giving it a test. I have had every herbs here in teas, and have smoke them in a variety of ways including vapes. I think from a vaporizer that wild lettuce and passion flower are the best highs. Wild lettuce, including wild lettuce extract though, doesn’t do much out of a vape in my opinion.

  8. Is it healthy to breath in the plant vapor? Will it get stuck in your lungs?

  10. I’m a regular cannabis user and I found (some mins ago) pretty interesting vaporizing Catnip. I read that Catnip is also use to relieve stomach problems, anxiety and insomnia, apparently there are even capsules….

    I definitely need to give a try to the next one on the list, Damiana

  18. Thank you for sharing your personal research and being insightful to the intensities of the different herbs. I would like to add that some people combine herbs with similar properties to enhance the effects– for example passionflower is synergetic with damiana, from what I’ve been reading.

  22. First of all I’d like to say I love this article. I’ve heard of most of these herbs before, the one I’m really interested in vaping is St. John Worts and Passionflower. However I’ve only seen these herbs in capsule form. Am I suppose to empty the capsules out and vape them like that or find the actual herb? Also I notice when opening the capsule the herb is often very very finely ground and I would imagine I’d just suck it right through the screen on my vape.

  24. I vaped pure Chamomile tea yesterday and I got a nice buzz from it. Just take the tea bag and cut it open and empty it in the bowl. It worked pretty well at 320 degrees. Anyone know things you can vape to help you sleep?

  26. Anyone reading these comments, DO NOT VAPORIZE SALVIA. If you wish to use salvia you MUST smoke it. It’s very dangerous when vaporized. You can look this up if you wish, I recommend the website erowid. Vaporizing salvia causes a blackout during which the body moves about very erratically. This is dangerous to the user and there is no “trip” involved. Except the trip to the floor possibly.

  30. Are we vaping dried or fresh herbs?

    …and thanx for the run down, I do intend to give this further attention. Seems the Salvia Divinorum has fastly become the herbal problem of late. Indiana has criminalized its sales and the shops in kentucky practically deal it under-counter as though it were street corner crack commerce. Bummer, I enjoyed it smoked, bet vaped it would be quite enjoyable.

  34. This is a good list but I’d like to see it expanded. I use the Volcano and find it an efficient way to get the benefit from herbs. I would like to find herbs that will help me with a variety of ailments. I think it’s possible that this will be the wave of the future. Might anyone suggest other herbs to vaporize? I don’t believe plant vapors will produce the kind of harm that is caused by smoking. I have a few suggestions:
    1-Vaporize instead of smoke
    2-Introduce only 1 new herb into your routine at a time and allow yourself a chance to recognize any new symptoms/effects before introducing additional types of herbs.
    3-Use extreme caution with respect to quantity/dosage. You can always increase later once you are comfortable with the effects you’ve been getting.
    4-When switching from one herb to another use care to avoid mixing herbs unless you have a great deal of experience. I use separate bags for each kind of herb.
    5-I strongly recommend that Volcano users plays the inhale tube against one nostril and press the other closed, then inhale the vapor through the nasal passages instead of the lungs. I believe this helps filter out particulates but I’m not a doctor and don’t play one on t.v.
    6-This is just my opinion and not a recommendation.

  38. For a number of years I have blended cannabis, chamomile and damiana together for vaporizing. As I have access only to Sativas I find that the blend keeps the high more mellow. Chamomile alone is delicious and medicinal–a great herb!
