Is their pure salvinorin A. in the ash above the screen from the bowl after smoking Salvia?

Question

Salvinorin can be extracted into alcohol. or it can be extracted by heat. Therefore, would it be in the ash after smoking a bowl of Salvia Divinorum?

I am unsure if their is anybody who can answer this. But I hope that I can get somebody out their who knows a little bit about Salvia Divinorum the plant and Salvinorin A. which is the active ingredient of Salvia Divinorum.

Answer 1

Yes, there would be trace amounts left in the ashes if you used a normal bic-style lighter - as these are not hot enough to vaporize all the salvinorin. It would only be trace amounts though (most of the ash is just burned leaf material), and it would hardly be worth saving. It might be possible to extract the extra salvinorin by using alcohol... but again - it would hardly be worth the trouble. Just go buy some at your local head shop.

Salvia is crazy stuff, and I don't recommend using it very often. It affects me in a powerful way, and not really a good one. Usually I just get scared because I have no clue what the hell is going on.

Anyway, good luck - and enjoy.
