I've seen reports of kids dying from eating too much nutmeg. I guess nutmeg is supposed to be pyschotropic.
I've been studying mushroom growing and it's hard to find anything that isn't focused on pyschotropic mushrooms, especially the forums.

most of the folks that are the "old hands" in mycology today started off with psychedelic shrooms, and as they got older they moved on to edible/medicinal. it's quite a strange crowd, with cannabis you have(for the most part) forums just for that, and then you have tomatoville type mainstream forums. however with mushrooms the edible/medicinal crowd has the same forums as the psychedelic crowd, usually. there are mushroom forums that deal more with edibles than actives, but most mycologists are fans of all mushrooms and fungi

Good to know, Rootloops. I have read some good information on cannabis forums so I will check it out.

The ‘Devil Plant’ Solanum capsicoides is usually used for the rootstock as it is very vigorous.
Here is a link

They use it for eggplant in Australia, it triples the size and output of the plant.

up at our future growing area i found a bunch of horse nettles. i wonder if we could graft some tomatoes on to those? they are the same family, and i figure those horse nettles are growing very well up there even with no care at all maybe they have adapted well to neglect?

edit: nevermind, i thought i had read the horse nettle was non toxic but it has solanine in all parts that could probably get into the fruit

Very interesting stuff, thanks for posting.


I would imagine that it takes locals a long time, however, to be convinced of certain grafting tecniques.

There are so many snake-oils men out there I understand, but starting a grafting business seems labor intensive with lots of healthy scepticism from potential buyers.
