Hawaiian baby woodrose

Hawaiian baby woodrose seeds

Chewing on a couple of these babies could make you see visions. But although they're legal, they are also highly potent. So you may spend most of your time hugging the toilet rather than kissing the sky.

The Hawaiian baby woodrose is a climbing plant with large furry seeds. These seeds contain the psychedelic LSA, and ingesting them can cause strong hallucinations. The seeds are usually chewed and spat out, or ground up and dissolved in liquid. They look a bit like chocolate chips but have a very hard texture.

What are the effects of taking Hawaiian baby woodrose?

  • Hallucinations with similar effects to LSD, but with less intense visuals.
  • A feeling of insight into the world, with intense interest in minor things you usually ignore.
  • Trouble talking properly.
  • Uncontrollable laughter even though you're not sure what's funny.
  • The trip usually lasts between six to eight hours, but feelings of tranquillity can last up to an extra 12 hours.

What are the risks?

  • The most common side effects are nausea, wind and vomiting.
  • Trips are unpredictable, and users can experience paranoia, panic, and anxiety so severe they want the trip to stop but are unable to escape.
  • Sensitivity to the seeds can vary from person to person, and only a small amount can cause people to have a very severe reaction.
  • Some users get severe abdominal cramps.
  • The seeds can produce intense dizziness and confusion, which can be upsetting.
  • The day after taking baby woodrose, some users experience hangover-type symptoms with blurred vision and vertigo.

Haiwaiian baby woodrose and the law:

Hawaiian baby woodrose is not listed in the Misuse of Drugs Act, and therefore it is legal to possess it. However, it is illegal to sell it for the sole purpose of human consumption. Legal high traders dodge this loophole in the law by having "not for human consumption" on the packaging.

Hawaiian baby woodrose is also known as:

Elephant creeper, woolly morning glory, silver morning glory, and HBW.

If you are planning on taking Hawaiian baby woodrose:

  • Taking them in an environment where you feel safe can reduce the risk of having a frightening trip.
  • Keep a sober friend with you who can calm you down if the trip gets too much, or stop you from hurting yourself.
  • These seeds can cause miscarriage so don't take them if you are pregnant.
  • Do not take these seeds if you have any liver problems like hepatitis or jaundice.
  • Psychedelics affect different people differently, so taking any dosage is opening yourself up to an unknown reaction.
