Datura is a strange creature. |

Had you read my previous posts in this topic, you would have surely noticed how strongly I discouraged "spiritual use" of Datura due to it's extreme dangers both mentally and physically. I stressed this warning extremely; Ask Tommo Datura is not a Psychedelic, it is a Deliriant. And Deliriants are allways bad news. |

Okay 50/50 chance is a little ridiculous you are right. I will not deny that in the right hands, in the right time and place that certain substances might be used to gain some spiritual insite. But if you don't know what you are doing that is dangerous that is all I am trying to say. |

Nope - no bad trips, I actually very much enjoyed mushrooms when I used to do them. It was a very artistic high as I remember. lol |

I recently experimented with shrooms and dreaming. As far as I can tell, they don't mix. As I got closer to sleep, the mushrooms ceased to have any effect, and it wasn't until I roused myself mentally that they kicked in again. |

Datura isn't so much of an LD-inducing drug as it is a trainwreck hallucinogen. You'll see shit, but you won't be in much control of it and it will be horribly unpleasant and you'll be accompanied by a lot of nausea. Coleus/calea on the other hand, is a much milder hallucinogen which induces extremely vivid dreams which are nearly always lucid. Coleus is also nearly harmless, and the only side affect is very very slight nausea which is only from eating a very large amount of fibrous plant matter, not from toxicity. |

Datura is to dangerous for other than trained persons to handle and even then they are taking a chance. IF you've had less than 3-4 years dealing with entheogenic compounds ie LSD, Mescaline(peyote/san pedro cactus), psiloscybe, psilocybin, salvia divinorum, etc.. I wouldn't suggest u mess with it. Could be last time you u mess with anything... It could make u insane, or kill yourself accidently ie run out into traffic and get run over by a bus or out of a window thinking theres a walkway there etc... There are numerous ways to die on Datura..Because you actually can't distinguish between fact / fictions,. It might just shut down certain parts of your nervous system say like your heart. Hell most medicine people I know are afraid to touch it and I know why. In just touching it you can get the compounds on your hands / arms etc and then it'll absorb into bloodstream. Nothing like walking through the woods to grandmas house and on way rubbing against a Datura.. Next thing you know your not in Kansas much less on this planet... lol |

This simply wouldn't happen unless you rubbed the flower all over your body. |

me and many of my friends have been "playing"/experimenting with datura for quite some time, my first trip was about 15 years ago.... since my first time i usually took the way of 'over-dose', that is take an amount that will put you in a place where you have no control over the trip, talking to people that arent there, playing out senarios that arent real, saying things that make no sence, etc. etc..... the reason is that if you dont get over the 'threshold' you feel like total shit for the rest of the day or longer, i mean bad news... unless you take the minute dose before bed route...ive eaten several whole seed pods at a time, in tea or raw...(i prefere tea)... because its the most potent part of the plant, but have tried every other part as well... smoking the leaf for example is nice and mellow and can impart a more visual experience and is good for asthma.... |
|
oh yes, there have been instances where friends have gone to the hospital, but we do not know wheather they had really fucking over-dosed or weather they scaired the shit out of unsuspecting friends and relatives or was a niusance to the authorities...the hospital always tells you that you almost died no matter what you o.d. on.... jail has been an option as well.... |

Serveral seedpods at a time? |

After reading this I was surprised to see no mention of hanging the extremely fragrant sometimes pungent flowers of either Datura or the closely related Brugmansia over the head while sleeping. I remember seeing this method referenced somewhere as a traditional method of use but cannot locate the source (anyone?). I have no qualms against the ingestion of baneful herbs am fairly well-versed in their dangers and somewhat annoyed at the endless warnings from people with no relationship with the plants, but have not been feeling confident and acquainted enough myself to directly ingest it. I am growing several Daturas and Brugmansias which will soon be in bloom and will try this in due time. Maybe the 2-5 seeds will follow in the future with luck and seeding. I've always felt somewhat intoxicated by the mere fragrance of the flowers which emit a potent smell that seemed to change between peanut butter, rotting flesh, and lemon depending on the time of night and moon. I have known several people who have obtained strange dreams, oddly enough having a consistent subject of strange reptilian organisms, by the suspending of fresh flowers above the head while sleeping. The drawback to this is that robbing the plant of fresh flowers does not allow it to produce seed, so prudence is recommended. I welcome anyone who is up for hanging a bouquet of fresh Solanacae blossoms above their heads reports of subsequent experiences or lack there of. |

The reason people warned who haven't taken it is because we have read about it extensively. Others have taken it and say the same. So I really don't see what your problem is with that. |

Off topic much? |

I think Brugs might be more forgiving than Datura from what I've gathered and certainly not too far off topic which may be for better or worse depending on the user. Their blossoms smell much more lemony and aromatic than Datura which I've always thought smelt like peanut butter at times. The flowers falling on the head could easily be avoided by positioning them slightly below or above the head. You could always just take a nap under a blossoming tree on a hot summer night if one is accessible. Another off topic nightshade related dream possibility with similar chemistry and lesser toxicity might be Henbane if anybody has experience with that. Henbane in some occult traditions is used as incense and never ingested directly. Datura might be able to function in a similar manner. The three seeds method seems fairly efficient and risk free, I will try when the plants are seeding. |

What? who and what was off-topic? |

a couple of years back I tried putting a datura flower in a glass of water next to my bed. that night I had intensely graphic nightmares about being chased down a long corridor by a montrous being. the dream lasted a long time. I never did it again. |

Perhaps 3 seeds of Datura Inoxia should be combined with other oneirogens to make for more dramatic dream enhancement. |

Smoking brugmansia flowers seems to bring on a nice subtle drowsiness with a remote hint of delirium as a friend of a friend accounts: |

I think it could certainly take a lot physically out of you if used and frequency and high doses as could anything. If you experience nightmares that may translate into physical taxation. |

A safe and precise way to dose Datura would be to take a safe dose of seeds, between 3 and 5 Datura Inoxia seeds, and extract the alkaloids from that. |
