Can sitting next to a brugmansia datura send me crazy?


Question:Everytime I sit next to this plant in my conservatory, after about 30 mins I am sure I can feel some effect that it has on me.

Answers:
Very possible. In a warm humid environment the Datura, which contains psychoactive chemicals could affect the more sensitive person, especially after handling leaves or flowers. There are some very nasty side effects to the `misuse`of this plant, and it has claimed the lives of some `misusers`.

Although the hallucinogenic component isn't trans-dermal I think the scopalamine is. I get a similar reaction when pulling up Jimson Weed. RScott
