  • i tried these at a powow thinking it was food like and Indian fruit god it was some scary shit i thought i was chasing buffalo

  • I have loads of those in my backyard as well ... A friend told me years ago that it was poisness and that some kids have died from drinking a tea of this but this is the first time I really see proofs that its true .. Fking plants now I have one more reason to kill them hehe :p

    Ps they are useful to me because they grow high and so I can hide my cannabis plants better but fuck it I dont want anymore any poison plants near my babys >.<

  • @BlueThor1 Well, I don't know anything about growing pot, but I would guess that the last thing you would want would be any chance of one of these nasty/poisonous Jimson Weed leaves getting in with your cannabis leaves at time of harvesting. Instead of a mellow marijuana high you could end up with a freaky and dangerous trip to the hospital. Happy gardening!

  • Nasty stuff!!! In my College Anthropology class we discussed how some native american tribes use this as a hallucinagen. And how my Professors friend accidentally touched it and got the liquid got on his finger and had to be hospitalized because the narcotic was so strong.

  • its probably the worst plant in kansas that i know of so far i tried it and i lost control of my body for a day and a half from now on im pulling each of these plants by the root because think if little kids get ahold of it its not fun to talk to people who are not there or find out that you almost caught your families house on fire its not a joke if u see them get rid of them.....

    they might look cool but trust me this is worse than alot of illegal drugs

  • i grow entheogens, i want it

  • @nephildevil if you take it with morning glory seeds you'll see alphabet soup when you try to read.....

  • @undeadpresident and i tawt some chili peppers were hard to digest, computer monitors must be a lot worse :D

  • OK, I normally leave all my videos open for comments, so I apologize for blocking a few on this one. But some comments went too far off topic and had too many curse words and personal attacks for what I look to create with my garden videos. I'll summarize the deleted comments: one viewer stated that God knew what he was doing in making poison plants look nasty, another viewer noted exceptions to that in nature and stated that no gods exist. They cursed at each other. Let's get back to gardening.

  • @Corrupt5358 This bloody thing is rampant in the fields very near me - if your THAT desparate to kill yourself, I'd be happy to bundle some up and send it you !

  • I'm sorry sir, but Jimsonweed is different from Locoweed, which is different from Devil's Trumpet. Locoweed is in the Legume Family (Fabaceae), Jimsonweed and Devil's Trumpet are both in the family Solanaceae(nightshade). Locoweeds contain Indolizidine alkaloids, nitroprpanol glycoside, and selenium which contribute to the disease known as "locoism." The family Solanaceae(nightshade) have toxins of tropane alkaloids which is a variation of atropine.

  • I've had a positive experience with datura. It made me see things from a totally different perspective and I am a better person today because of it.

  • THANK you for this post - we have it in our backyard and we first thought it was a random squash but now noticed those strange seed pods...just googled and found this video - thank you from all of us and our dogs!!!!!!!!

  • @webringwellnesshome Yes, unless you want your family or dogs to be sick or dead, I'd suggest getting rid of those Jimson Weed plants. Wear gloves!

  • @OrganicGarden123 Good thing that you're well-familar with plants. I had a teacher who once told me that a friend of his once boiled and ate some Jimson Weed. He ended up frying his brain to the point where he became a vegetable and had to be hospitalized in a wheelchair. I don't know if this man is still alive, but the effects of the drug were so severe that it resulted with him just sitting in his wheelchair, staring into space, and having to wear diapers for the rest of his life.

  • people grow GIGANTIC bushes of this stuff RIGHT by the sidewalk around here

    actually a music store had a huge bush of these with dozens of seed pods in the middle of the sidewalk just around the corner from me this last summer

    they looked extremely healthy but it just amazes me how ignorant people seem to be

    a few years back someone had chopped a bunch of them down and they were just laying by the sidewalk with again, dozens of seed pods

  • Bet he ate one. It is all he talks about. 3 feet who lets invasive species get that tall in their garden. "Only things that make people feel good and healthy" Hmmmmmmmm.......

    Bet he ate one.

  • @doggfish55 Sorry to disappoint you, but no I didn't try it. I was actually kind of paranoid and used gloves etc even to pull the darn thing out. I am WAY too boring to mess with a potentially deadly poison like this plant. Exciting for my life is deciding to plant two types of pumpkins this year! Peace.

  • @doggfish55 if he did he's a moron, people who use J weed make it into tea like an opium poppy.

  • @fantabulousK Well, I am certainly clueless in a few areas of life, BUT.... I'm not foolish enough to eat Jimson Weed, neither in tea nor in any other form. Every year this nasty plant kills people, and drug users who have tried it say that is is the OPPOSITE of a good high. There's no good reason to mess with it, and definitely good reasons to stay the heck away from it. Peace.

  • Beautiful plant.

  • This plant is poisonous, toxic, and can make people VERY sick and can kill you.

    Do NOT try using this plant for anything. It does NOT give a good 'high', it just gives very very bad side-effects and can even cause death. Stay away from this nasty plant.

  • @SirSmokeify Yes, I agree! I wore gloves, uprooted it all, put it in a plastic bag, and threw it out in the garbage (no way I would add that nasty plant to my compost!). I love having a garden where family and friends can eat the veggies, the edible flowers, etc., and the last thing I want in my garden is something like "Jimson weed" that could make people sick or dead! Happy gardening!

  • @OrganicGarden123 I agree! Why have a beautiful garden where you can relax and then have a plant like jimson weed destroy it!

  • Nasty looking little bugger
