Datura?

and one of your pics:​

I am sure Scrungee has got that one right. Daturas are essentially annuals - a few are a bit more perennial but wouldn't survive our winter. So yours must be self sown - which I find quite surprising, Howevert I think Pete has mentioned self sown seedlings before.

Looking closer at the picture, I can see the distinctive Datura spikey seed pods. Just be careful - all parts of the plant are poisonous.

 

I think its D.stramonium, (thorn apple).

It self sows frequently and often appears as a weed.

 

Hallucinogenic, even.

Whoa, better get the gloves and riot shields out!

 

Thanks for your quick reply,sorry for my slow reply as I couldn't log on , ( my fault,forgot about space on user name ! ),it was quite a surprise about the plant.
Thanks again, Neale

 

Madahhalia - you are right.

Its also known as Jimson Weed and is halucinogenic. I read somewhere that worldwide Jimson Weed and Marijuana are the two most commonly taken halucinogens. But unlike Marijuana, I don't think its illegal in this country.

I found this on the net :-

When smoked or eaten, can produce a truly hallucinogenic experience. For most people, however, the trip will prove to be a bummer.

First effects begin in about twenty minutes. Along with some periods of euphoria, chills and fever accompanied by a bit of nausea and diarrhea may be experienced. Soon, if the user is not too confused to tell what is happening, he. will note some loss of coordination, a dry burning sensation in the mouth, difficulty talking or swallowing, dry hot skin, rash, scaling, vomiting, and loss of memory, along with dizziness, pressure in the head, agitation, and severe visual blurring stag,, distortion. If a high enough dose is taken, hallucinations will fallow. These hallucinations can, often be more intense than those experienced while on LSD, lasting up to several days, and, in rare cases, followed by convulsions or coma. Other side effects include mental disorientation and feelings of extreme panic. The whole business is pretty much a downer:

I have no time for drug users - why can't they just drink gin like everyone else.

 

Both are wildflowers here although it is illegal to grow Marijuana here in your garden / on your land and carries a hefty prison sentence if caught!

 

You're not winning me over here.

Deffo my recreational drug of choice. I'm slurping on the white wine (in bed) even as I type. D'you think I should seek treatment??
