As with most “drugs” 90% of the information out there is fear mongering, most of it talking about bad trips not so much physical effects except nausea. Are bad trips and depression really that common? The only other psychedelic I’ve done is dmt and never had a bad experience so I guess I’m not overly worried but would love some info from people who have used it.
oh this is about drugs
i saw “morning glory seeds” and was about to throw some hands to keep people away from my garden
Same ones that grow in your garden just harvest the seeds when the plant is dead and dry.
I’ve taken LSA a few times (mostly hawaiian baby wood rose though not morning glory) and I have to say the only negative aspects of the experiences have been nausea and peripheral vasoconstriction that lasts a full day longer than the perceptual and cognitive effects. Honestly IMO 1plsd and psilocybin are way better because you can get reasonable doses without insane body loads and they can be dosed more consistently.
The 420chan /del/ board was a fun read back in my youth so I’ll share what I gathered:
- Datura (morning glory) is very difficult to dose as the toxins are not evenly distributed throughout the plant. You can take 5 seeds and feel nothing or take two seeds and be gone for two days or worse.
- it is a delieriant, not a psychedelic (hence /del/ not /psy/). You will see shit that is not there, think you are in different locations, talk to people who dont exist, etc. It is more like of doing a bunch of benedryl than of shrooms or acid.
- It was never described as a “good time”. Instead more like some spiritual journey. At best you think youre having a deep conversation with your unborn daughter, when you’re really pacing back in forth, leaving a trail of partially chewn doritos on the floor. If you think you’re going to chill and listen to some music well actually you’re watching family guy for hours, actually the tv has been off this whole time, actually your on your deck and you’ve broken your favorite bong.
Have a trip sitter.
Lol thanks for the info. I have taken drugs as part of my spiritual practice, and it looks like datura has been used for that for thousands of years, your descriptions makes it sound like it really works. But with that warning I think I’ll wait till I’m in a better mental state to give it a try.
Datura (Datura stramonium) and Morning Glory (Ipomoea alba) are two very different plants in completely different taxonomic families. Datura is in the nightshade / Solanaceae family while morning glory is in the bindweed / Convolvulaceae family. what they have in common is that some people use a rather vague common name of “moon flower” to describe their blooms.
if I were going to reference an near authoritative compendia of psychoactive plants on the internet, their processing/use/experiences/chemistry/ethnobotanical info, I would refer people to Erowid. not 4chan.
Morning Glory Root Pulp’s four alchemical effects are Burden, Frost Shield, Damage Willpower, and Damage Magicka.
So if eat morning glory seeds like a cowboy that had to quit dip I’ll be able to turn off the heating?
It’s been about a decade since I used them last, but I had a good trip and didn’t experience any depression (on top of what I was already experiencing at the time; “it didn’t make my depression worse” would be more accurate, I guess). I purchased a couple Burpee bags from a gardening store, rinsed off the contents, and ate them.
Took hours to come up, peaked for an hour or so, then hours to come down. Longer trip than acid, but more mellow in my experience. The worst part was the nausea, but that may have been from a coating on the seeds instead of the seeds themselves? Oh, wait. The worst part was the taste, actually.
