Leonotis Leonurus from South Africa

Wild Dagga comes from South Africa where it grows wild. The Khoi peoples traditionally used it as a mild relaxer. It contains no THC but substances that can give a mildly relaxing effect. The name dagga is the African word for cannabis, after which it is named due to superficial similarities.

The effect is subtle - a light relaxation, comparable to chamomile but slightly stronger. Some users report a mild euphoric feeling. The taste is herbal with a slightly resinous undertone. You can smoke it or drink as tea.

Key Features: South African herb. Mildly relaxing. For tea or smoking. No THC. Traditionally used by Khoi peoples.

Use and Dosage

As tea: use 1-2 grams per cup, let steep 10 minutes. For smoking: use pure or mix with other herbs. Start with small amounts to see how you react. The effects are mild - do not expect a strong high. Use preferably in the evening for relaxation.

What is the difference between wild dagga and klip dagga?

Wild dagga (Leonotis leonurus) and klip dagga (Leonotis nepetifolia) are related but distinct plants. Wild dagga contains higher concentrations of leonurine, the alkaloid responsible for the relaxing effects. You can identify wild dagga by its narrow, elongated leaves and bright orange tubular flowers. Klip dagga has broader, heart-shaped leaves and is sometimes mistakenly sold as wild dagga. For the strongest relaxing effect, choose wild dagga.

Is wild dagga a legal cannabis alternative?

Wild dagga is completely legal in most countries worldwide. Although the name "dagga" refers to cannabis and the effect superficially resembles it, wild dagga contains no THC or other controlled substances. The active compound leonurine has an entirely different chemical structure from cannabinoids. The effect is considerably milder than cannabis: a gentle relaxation without the typical high, munchies, or red eyes. Discover more relaxing herbs on our blog.

What is the best way to prepare wild dagga tea?

Use 1-2 grams of dried wild dagga per cup and pour boiling water over it. Let it steep for at least 10 minutes; longer steeping (up to 15 minutes) gives a stronger effect. The tea has an herbal-bitter taste that you can soften with honey or a slice of lemon. Drink it in the evening for optimal relaxation. Some experienced users simmer the leaves for 20 minutes on low heat for a more potent extraction, but always start with the milder steeping method.
