Salvia Standardized VS Non-Standardized

I normally buy the standardized salvia, but I was thinking it would be cheaper to buy non. Anyone have any experience with quality differences?

It depends. It depends on the quality of the source leaf. Nonstandardized can be either stronger or weaker than standardized. So you're taking a gamble. If you find a good source, then nonstandardized could be a very good thing. If you don't want to take the time to test out batches of salvia extracts, and are satisfied with the strength and price of standardized, I'd just stick with it.

^ that is all subjective, and has nothing to do with standardized / non.
standardized simply means every gram is the same potency, nothing to do with waxes or anything else.

Just get a clipping or buy a young plant and start your own farm. Then it becomes free.

Then why does it say in the product description that all the waxes and tannins have been removed?

I always buy Non-standardized because it's all my pocket can handle. Works fine for me each and every time.

Okay all the diffrence between standardized and non... with non standardized you do a very rough extraction of the actives. You simply soak the leaf in a solvant and then let the solvant evaporate after you lay it on other leaf.
With standarized you actually extract pure crystal then aply it to other leafs. You get a more standardized potency and a somewhat cleaner product.

the expensive standardized ones with waxes and tanins removed are the best ones to smoke.
all have the same potential effects, but only non-standardized gummy black ones and ickky wet ones that are cheaply made will provide extra yucky taste and heavier smoke coughing.
