Observations specifying this field
| Observation | Smokeability? |
|---|---|
| Like others in the mint family, Wild Bergamot can be smoked and may add a smooth quality to your smoke. | |
| Actual pine needles can be harmful if smoked. However, they do contain a desirable terpene (pinene) which can be purchased individually and added to smoking blends for that piney flavour without the risk of inhaling harmful compounds such as turpentine and creosote, which are found in raw pine needles. | |
| Evening Primrose is indeed smokeable, and in fact, the Navajo mixed dried Evening Primrose leaves with tobacco. Smoking this was believed to bring good luck in hunting. | |
| Oregano is safe to be smoked. Anecdotally, smoking Oregano may help with anxiety and stress. | |
| Violets are safe to smoke. | |
| Reportedly, there are no harmful side effects of smoking Dandelion but it is not a common practice and there is little to suggest there are any benefits of it. | |
| Yarrow can be smoked and has stimulant qualities, providing feelings of happiness and possibly even euphoria. Yarrow can enhance the qualities of other herbs when smoked in a blend. It is recommended to only use a small amount, as it possesses a strong flavour. | |
| As it is unsafe to consume, periwinkle should not be smoked. | |

| Smoking catnip is safe and can relieve nervous tension, dissolve muscle tightness, reduce anxiety, and support a good nights sleep. Use the dried leaves and flowers, no seeds or stems. Best to use as a supporting herb rather than a base herb; avoid smoking catnip on its own and try it in a herbal blend instead. | |
| Coltsfoot can be safely smoked. In fact, one of its magickal uses includes smoking the leaves of coltsfoot to induce visions. | |
