I started collecting Wild Lettuce (Lactuca virosa) in my backyard this year. I've been drying the leaves in my oven at about 200 degrees F for a little over fifteen minutes and adding it to my rollies. I really enjoy the smell of this stuff after it's been dried, it seems like it would be good on a pizza maybe (I tried cooking fresh leaves numerous times but it is just too bitter for my liking, even with butter and spices and rice and stuff).
I've noticed that I am smoking less cigarettes and I definitely do notice a subtle effect, especially if I smoke one after I smoke some ganja.
I have yet to try the resinous extract but as I was collecting leaves a few days ago I dug up some of the roots as well. Maybe 5-7 of them, all about 2-4 inches long depending on the plant. Well I chopped up the roots and they have been sitting in a mixture of Olive oil and water (non-alcoholic tincture) for almost 5 days now. I've searched all over but I cannot find out any information about the constituents of the root.
The leaves contain N-methyl-β-phenethylamine, Coumarin (toxin), and lactucopicrin / lactucin (both of which are sesquiterpene lactones.
a little help, here? I've searched on botanical.com, wikipedia, erowid, a bunch of university plant profile sites but there's just not any info on this.
