Well, I was bored and wanted to smoke so I made a joint with my bible paper and as much dried green tea as I could fit in there. I don't know if this is the first tea joint I've rolled effectively or if I hadn't been inhaling it before, but damn was it harsh. but anyway it was burning really good yet pretty fast. obviously I wasn't expecting anything intense or pronounced, but I feel pretty relaxed yet focused (caffeine), and somewhat giggly. sort of like that feeling after masturbation or sex where you don't really think about anything and are content to just sit there :smug:
I've never noticed these kinds of effects when I drink tea, but maybe that's because they take longer to come on or experience. I'd describe tea as a pleasant and relaxing smoke, good for when your with buddies (I feel pretty goofy and I'm alone) but probably no substitute for weed or whatever. just thought I'd share some details of this legal "high" to you guys :smile:

hahah alrigt dude, and you're right though, perhaps I'm exaggerating the effects in the OP, it's really just enough to say "this feels nice"
Wait, green tea you say? Gives you focused feelings? Need to try out.
Google turns out some fucked up reviews, some say the taste is awful, other say it's awesome. Guess it's another trial & error.

The placebo is only making it stronger than it actually is. Smoking green tea will produce effects akin to drinking it, but it's not like you'll get wickedly stoned off green tea.
Also, caffeine is a high. Go grab a large coffee from Starbucks (I'm going to assume you're American or something, so you are bound to have a commercial coffee chain) and drink it down in like 10 minutes and come back and tell us how you feel.
Well just found some english black tea and some herbal mixture tea. I'll roll a "joint" with that.
Pain in the ass to roll a joint with that. Trying my gravity bong now(normal bong is just too loud).
Not really any effect. Tastes like shit, easy to inhale though.
Not worth a try.
Smoking a caffeine? Turn it into freebase first. But high is crap anyway orally, why would be smoked any better?

bad assumption, i'm scottish. but you've still got a good point. i think we've got starbucks in the city here too, actually.
Only 12-year-olds smoke tea.
-snip- nevermind OD is pretty high

you're at a far higher risk of caffeine OD when you drink normal coffee, bud. An average cup of joe has like 80-150mg of caffeine, while an average cup of tea has like 30-60mg.
[QUOTE=Octave;20352190]you're at a far higher risk of caffeine OD when you drink normal coffee, bud. An average cup of joe has like 100-200mg of caffeine i think, while an average cup of tea has like 30-40mg.[/QUOTE]
meh it's more of the fact, that it's hard to gauge how much caffeine you've taken when your smoking it(if that even works). I think it sounds disgusting too. I had a friend who used to pop caffeine tabs and shit. He would get close to an OD purposely. I can't remember how many milligrams were in a tab. I'll stick to smoking weed for now. I wouldn't be afraid of downing a cup of coffee but smoking a joint made out of tea sounds somewhat risky for some reason
I think you'd have to smoke more than one joint of green tea to OD on caffeine. I wouldn't do it either though.

You're right, it would take more than one. I would do it under the circumstances that I checked the measurement of caffeine and was meticulous in keeping the amount of caffeine low. Drinking caffeine is one thing but I have no idea what happens when you smoke it. I don't like caffeine for starters and tea sounds disgusting to smoke
Caffeine has a rather high LD50. It takes the average adult 80-100 cups of coffee to OD on Caffeine.
AKA you're not at risk of ODing on Caffeine from green tea. No way.
Yeah it would be difficult to do but I agree with him on the grounds that I probably wouldn't do it.
I wouldn't do it because it's not worth it. Not because of overdosing.

x1 Agree (List)
The taste is okay if you like tea, and it does make ME feel focused and calm, though only for the 5-10 minutes I'm smoking.
