Herb Vaporization Temperatures

The following is intended a rough guide (a starting point) to optimum vaporizer temperature settings for use with a wide range of medicinal herbs. Keep in mind that preferred temperature settings may vary from person to person, as different temperatures may effect the 'medicinal effect' or 'high' you experience. Experimentation is the key to obtaining maximum benefit from your vaporizer. Note that some cheaper models of vaporizer may not display accurate temperature readings.
