Legality and Safety of Herbal Smoke Blends

A synthetic molecule named JWH-018 was designed in an educational study within a university laboratory, back in 1995. This chemical acts very similar to THC, except it is much stronger. The synthetic molecule JWH-018 has recently been discovered in certain herbal smoke products that have been on the market for years.


A man who was importing one of these smoke blends into the USA was recently arrested under the U.S. Analog Act. Which basically covers designer chemicals that mimic illegal chemicals. Either way, unknown chemical additives can be potentially illegal or harmful. Especially if the consumer has no idea that these chemicals are present in their favorite smoke blends.


On the other hand, natural herbs are no stranger to scrutiny. Be sure to check out your local laws when ordering, handling or using any herb in your homemade herbal blends.

Some states have their own legislation on certain herbs. Especially states like Louisiana. Kratom is one ingredient I will cover and is currently legal in the U.S. (at the time of writing this). But it is illegal in many countries. No matter you do, do not do anything that can put you in jail! Do your legal research… ALWAYS!

We will not go into details of the current laws since they change everyday. This is just a disclaimer to alert you that when designing any herbal blend, it is important to research each ingredient and make sure you are not creating an illegal blend. I suggest you spend some time researching the legality of each herbal ingredient you want to include in your herbal smoke blend. There are plenty of places on the internet to find recent law changes for herbs.
