Product Information

Edge77 has been around for a while. I have used them for years. They are the guys who brought us “Jolly Lotus” – a legal marijuana substitute, which I reviewed very very well. They also sell many other “legal highs” and natural, psychoactives which I have enjoyed throughout the years. I recently reviewed their “Mega Pack” which came with a number of goodies. I especially enjoyed the Hawaiian Baby Woodrose. Sadly, though, this product was not included in their Mega Pack, so I decided to purchase it separately and give it a go. Supposedly, this is a premium version of Zacatechichi, the “dream herb.” The idea is that it is supposed to send you into a trance like state during your dreams, where you become incredibly lucid, powerful, and in control. The plant itself is used by shaman, traditionally, to scry the future and have “visions.”  I am not sure I buy into all that, but I definitely wanted to try it for its lucid-inducing and vivid dreams.

Product Administration

Calea

There are never any usage instructions on these products from Edge77, because they are not allowed to sell their products for human consumption. With that said, I had done a lot of reading and decided that creating a tea out of about 1/3 of the ounce would be a good idea. I just brought about 2 cups of water to a boil, added the herb, and stirred until the water had reduced to about half of its original level. The herb was then strained after the water cooled, and I had my extracted Zacatechichi tea. I did a repeat trial the following night, choosing to smoke it out of a bowl. Both administration times, I did at night, about 30 minutes before bedtime.

Product Effects

Within about 15 minutes after ingesting about a cup of the tea, I began feeling incredibly relaxed, and a bit more connected with the Universe. I did doze off shortly after, and I DID have some of the most INCREDIBLE, RIDICULOUSLY LUCID DREAMS I HAVE EVER HAD! I was not only able to tell I was dreaming, but choose where I wanted to go, what I wanted to do.  I had decided to go to space, where I was able to float around without any type of breathing apparatus. I was able to look down on the Earth beneath me, which looked SO realistic! I was able to visit an old friend, and even get some advice! This lasted for a few hours, as I had woken up after hearing my dog barking in the other room and could not get back to sleep.

The smoking trial was no different. I smoked a single bowl of this herb 30 minutes before bed. I finished the bowl about 15 minutes before I fell asleep in my chair in the office and I immediately was back in control. I re-experienced some of the best parts of my high school: lunch and soccer. I also enjoyed a few other dreams, which I will not detail here…but they were quite steamy in nature. This time, I was able to stay asleep and it probably lasted about 4 hours before I lost control and woke up from the “rest of the dream.”

Final Words

Ultimately, this is one of the most impressive “trips” I have ever had. The dreams were incredible. The escape was pretty amazing…and the ability to do whatever you want in your dreams almost takes away from the pain of everyday living in a world we have literally no control over. I did expect great things, as I really like Edge77 and have been buying their various products for years…but this is the first time I can recall trying Zacatechichi, and theirs, I have no doubt, truly is “premium.” For this, I give them a well-earned 5 Star Fat Sammy Rating and I can confidently suggest this product to anyone. I do suggest smoking rather than the tea, as the experience was the same for me, despite the fact I used far less when smoking it!

General Information

I have reviewed a few Edge77 products throughout the years, however, I have never purchased their Mega Pack until now.  This package came with some products I already have enjoyed, so I knew I’d be getting at least some of my money’s worth and it seemed like a safe bet. I have reviewed Jolly Lotus and their Hawaiian Baby Woodrose seeds before, and loved them both.  This time, I decided to splurge and try all of them (not together obviously, although that might be interesting as well).  The company has been around for years and has always shipped to me quickly. I have always received professional service and a professional product, so the risk seems minimal on this one.

Administration

I tried each of the products separately, giving a few days in between each time. I began with the tried and true Jolly Lotus product, which I have reviewed before and given 5 stars.  I then tried the Hawaiian Baby Woodrose, which I have also previously enjoyed.  I then tried their updated Premium Motherwort, something else I enjoyed in the past, but not as much as Jolly Lotus.  I then used the Damiana a few different ways, and finally last but not least, the Wild Lettuce.

To break it down a bit further…

Jolly Lotus: I smoked a bowl, a few times. I rolled a joint with the stuff (really a blunt).  And I brewed their famous Jolly Lotus Tea (which you can accomplish by boiling 1-2 cups of water depending upon how much you want, and steeping 8-12 grams of the stuff in the water for a good 30-60 minutes before straining and enjoying). 

Hawaiian Baby Woodrose: Although you can do a cold water extraction of the seeds (which I’d suggest using all 20 and letting them sit, cracked, in a glass of cold water for 24 hours before straining and consuming all at once), I always enjoy the sublingual administration method. Which basically means you just crack off the husks and then chew on them without swallowing for as long as you can take it. They taste a little rough, so I usually make it about 30-40 minutes before spitting everything out.  You can spit some as you go, but the longer you let it sit in your mouth, the more of the “legal LSA” effects you’ll have, which is kind of like a weaker LSD experience. It’s really fun.

Siberian Motherwort: This product I smoked out of a bowl. It hits harder, but its worth it.  Some people have claimed they combine it with some tobacco to make it smoother, and still get that “marijuana substitute” like effect.

Damiana: This is the spliff you want to smoke. Working it into a spliff by rolling it up with 50% tobacco gives the smoke a sweet, savory taste.  I also smoke this out of a bowl, and I can vape it at the same temperature as weed in my volcano (about 375-400 degrees F).

Wild Lettuce: This I use out of a bowl before bedtime. The entire premise of Wild Lettuce is to promote Lucid dreaming (knowing that you are dreaming and giving you the ability to control your dreams).

Effects / Experience

Each product has different effects, so I’m going to break it down like I did the administration method.

Jolly Lotus: Strongest as a tea, though it is a bit more time consuming to make.  The tea will give me that THC-edible like buzz. It is the closest thing to a weed brownie that I think I have tried, which is still legal.  When smoked, it is a lighter high, much like an energetic effect from smoking a good Sativa marijuana strain.   Jolly Lotus has been around for years. It’s a premium harvested, special Blue Lotus flower, still all legal, and without any additives or chemicals.  It’s a natural, legal, marijuana substitute that is tried and true and always works. I almost always have one of these bottles in my drawer for in between weed stash, or for when I’m on probation, which does happen sometimes.  My work also tests for weed, and smoking Jolly Lotus gets me around that, while still letting me have a good time.

Hawaiian Baby Woodrose:  This is nature’s “natural LSD” which is actually called LSA.  It can be a bit of a ritual to get the effects, but it’s one that is worth it, and fun…especially as a group. This is probably why they sell them in 5 packs (for parties). I heard one story about a group that dumped 5 packs into a punch bowl (husks removed, which is the outside of the seed after you crack it), and they had a blast.  It works well with alcohol and I can say it has always provided a good, safe trip.  The effects of this are strongest for me when I chew the seeds, but I think I’ll try the punch bowl routine next time I order from Edge.

Siberian Motherwort: This herb is interesting. It’s not as easy to smoke but it definitely feels like a good marijuana substitute.  It’s different than Jolly Lotus, and from weed, providing a bit more of a “long though process” and invoking more insight.  When I smoke Edge’s Motherwort, I feel like I’m prophesizing, or theorizing all the time.  This is a good thing, as I get the impression other people find me smarter than I actually am. LOL.  It smells alright, and doesn’t damage my bowl either.

Damiana: This is meant to be a smooth, psychoactive tobacco substitute. It works much like tobacco, however, it is a sweeter scent and a sweeter smoke. I see them advertise this sometimes as a tobacco alternative, showing the damiana rolled up into a joint.  Although I haven’t tried it myself, some people empty a cigarette, mix half the tobacco with half damiana, and re pack the cigarette.  This technique seems cleanest and provides a smooth smoke that is reported to be cleaner than straight tobacco, and a bit more psychoactive.

Wild Lettuce: This is a new favorite of mine, as it actually works pretty reliably. Out of the 5 times I tried it, as I smoked it for an entire week before bed…I had 4 lucid dreams I can remember. I was able to control where I was, what I did, how I interacted, and effectively do whatever I wanted.  This is great for people like me, as I spend most of my daytime daydreaming, wishing I could experience a fully-immersive alternate reality.  I’d give this one 5 stars as well on its own!

Final Notes

All in all I can say the mega pack was more than worth it.  I would rarely give something this expensive 5 stars, however, this is one that takes the cake. Every product in the lineup is worth the money.  I should also note they have one product which is not a part of their mega pack, Antillean Gotu Kola, which is also well worth the money and works much like a legal ecstasy,  or a legal sex drug. I have reviewed it before, and it’s really good stuff. You just make a tea out of it like many of their other products, or consume it by the tablespoon.  Bottom line though, Edge77 ships fast, supplies good stuff, and I can always count on them for a good time.  I can easily give them a 5 star Fat Sammy review and thoroughly recommend the Mega Pack.  Great work guys!
