How to Smoke a Grape Vine
Desperate smokers who couldn't find tobacco to roll would often resort to smoking a variety of tobacco substitutes, including grape vine. But smoking grape vine wasn't just for the desperate; it was a way for kids to imagine they were on the brink of adulthood and smoking like their parents. It may seem silly now, and not readily recommended, but it remains a nostalgic moment for people raised in the country. Does this Spark an idea?

Find the right grave vine. Mustang grape vines work best, ideally dry vines less than 1/4-inch thick. The most important thing is to find a hollow vine.

Dry the vines slowly. If you're patient, they can dry out overnight. You can also dry them in an oven or on foil at the back of a grill. You don't want a high heat, just enough to be able to light them.

Hold a match or lighter at the vine tip and suck in until the vine ignites. Puff the vine; if you inhale you can choke or cough.

actually, Banana peels contain a Psychoactive compound. to extract this compound, dry the banana peels on a peice of news paper, then put the dried banana peels into a dish containing Zippo Lighter Fluid, let sit over night, then take the banana peels out of the dish, and let the lighter fluid evaporate, and the remaining crystals in the bottom are the psychoactive compound. put that in a joint and smoke it. note: it is not safe to smoke just banana peels without extracting the compound, because the peels also contain a fungus. you might have to smoke more than just 1 banana peel to get a good mind trip. I can not be held responsible if you decide to use this information.
