5 minute freewrite 2801 prompt poisonous mixture
This is my post for #freewriters 2801 prompt poisonous mixture hosted by @mariannewest
I have searched my land and the preserve in my backyard, and I have not found any wild lettuce, so I ordered a bottle of it. I am not sure if it is the same as what people are making themselves because it says to use 1ML mixed in a glass of water, and everyone who makes it says you do not want to take more than 2 or 3 drops. I posted on a WL site and asked if it is the same as they make, but no one has replied.
I also ordered these seeds of Lactuca Virosa, this is the one that is supposed to be the most potent. But I can not plant the seeds yet, it is too hot here. It grows in zones 5 to 9, and I am in 10a, so I am hoping I can grow it in the winter. The package says they will not germinate in temperatures higher than 85. I will wait until the end of October to plant them.
My sister has been looking for it for me, and when I was explaining to her what to look for and told her the plant has a milky sap, she said she thought anything with a milky sap was poisonous. I told her what I want to make is not a poisonous mixture, people take it all of the time, and I have never heard of anyone dying from it. I think people say that because some plants might be poisonous, but not all of them with a milky sap are poisonous. There is a plant called Fire on the Mountain that I feed to Rudy, it has a milky sap.

Dandelions also have a white milky sap, but they are edible.
yep, I think the all plants with white sap being poisonous must come from old wives tales.
Wild lettuce 🥬
Thank you, that would be nice to grow, but cannabis is illegal in my state. Wild lettuce is legal.
