HBWR growers?
#27187248 - 02/05/21 12:24 AM (2 years, 11 months ago) |

Anyone grow HBWR? I got some seeds last year and finally got some space to sprout them, and boom! 4 days later they have germinated and I'm seeing water leaves on 2 cm stems. Meaty looking little guys, clearly love the tropics.
Any recommendations on positioning or anything else about this plant would be highly appreciated.

Be careful with the seeds. LSA yes. But can nearly kill you.. just my experience and never again.good luck on the grow!

What do you want to know? They are as easy to grow as their morning glory counter parts.

I sprouted some years ago and it was pretty carefree. I transplanted often so if I were to do it again I'd get it established in a 1 gallon container then put right into native soil once it's outgrown the starting pot. Beautiful heart shaped foliage and loves to crawl. Might be a bit invasive to its neighbors though.

Will they grow on galvanised wire runs or pool fencing? Can they handle dry UV in the winter? Better with partial shade in harsh tropics or can grow N-S? Any other tips as well, tips are worth gold when growing a new species.

It's night time now, I'll take some pics in the light. They really are just sprouts though.
I also planted some heavenly blue with this batch of seeds. Good to know the care is similar. Thanks.

As promised here's a pic, morning of day six. The darker leaf sprouts are heavenly blues, the bright green HBWR. So many sprouts I can see there that haven't yet opened, these four are just the powerhouses that opened on day 3. They will be separated and get more care.

The other half of the tray has datura and muntries cranberry. Started a few new trays last weekend, lots of interesting things.

Very nice mate I would go ahead and get them into their own pots now while it's still early if they were mine The bigger ones. Gently dig them out with a toothpick.

I will move them to some tree tubestock soon enough. I'm scared to move such young ones in case I break their single root. My eyesight isn't great and I have pretty big hands which can make doing small dexterous things difficult.

HBWR = Jack and the bean stalk stories...no joke Theyll take over And ....take you to the giants land ...haha I had one that stem grew almost as thick as my arm....bout 5years Just let it ramble up something Ideally a low fence or something that can be accessed on a short ladder cause once they set seed you want to be able to get to them easily Mine were like waaay up in the clouds in this huge tree and getting to them was a mission
I popped some 'heavenly blue' Ipomea seeds in some trays a week or so back They just breaking the surface today Spotted some plants growing close to where I'd seen them about 15years back so collected some seeds for the fun of growing &seeing the flowers again

This is the fence I'm thinking about setting the hbwr free on. It runs north to south.

Will load up a pic of my Aya frame another time, once I get the vine out.
Got some m. speciosa seeds arrived this morning, finally. There's a mulberry tree in the corner of my block that doesn't seem to be moving at all, gonna move it and put one there. Gosh darn things grow so huge and I'm in tropical storm country, can't think of another place to put it that's far enough away from buildings.

I'm not so sure that that fence would be good for your woodrose to adhere too. I planted a bunch of morning glories last year along my Aunt's iron fence, and they could not grip onto the slick bars. She even tried helping them, and they would not stay put. Just throwing that out there for ya mate.

Thanks hey, this is the sort of advice I need... the reason I started this thread.
I could run some large gauge hexagonal wire along it, wouldn't cost much and would give the young tendrils something to grip onto and wrap around. I think it would turn into a hedge then without a lot of effort.
Sound logical?

No problem man, and I was thinking that you could do something similar to what you just mentioned
I think once they get going good, they would then be able to take over that whole fence no problemo

Looking great. The MGs are already sending out runners and grabbing nearby plants. When/if it stops raining they're going in the ground.

Growing well, caterpillars have had a little go at the HBWR, but the MG's are ready to climb. Already the large tree stock tubes are growing roots out of the bottom of all tubes. Ready to plant already.

Probably weekend though till I can rig up some chicken wire for them, wasn't expecting them to explode like that under 90% shade. They'll totally own that fence in a year the rate they grow. Just insane even in nursery conditions.
Will move them to harden a little to the edge of the nursery, so they get full sun till midday for a few days, then plant them out.
Got a couple of stragglers come along too, so 4 HBWR and 7 MG's for the fence. Will be interesting to see how they sort out their territorial issues.

First flowers have dropped off and weaver ants are guarding the nectar around the seed pods.

Plenty more where that came from though, so many ready to bloom.

There's about a million green seed pods on it now, it's no doubt waiting for the cool and dry change in May to open them.

I have seedlings of Ipomoea nervosa growing as well as relatives like Stictocardia, which are worth looking into if you like Hawaiian Baby Woodrose (Ipomoea nervosa)
I've found most of the plants I've grown from the genus (over 20 species and numerous varieties) are short day flowering plants that much like Cannabis prefer an uninterrupted night cycle for the best flowering response due to their largely tropical equatorial evolutionary history. I like to grow Ipomoea tricolor indoors for this reason.
Many of the species with larger leaves do well with partial shade and can even flower without full sun once established, including Hawaiian Baby Woodrose.
Right now I am trying to get Ipomoea amnicola established, as well as about a dozen other more common species.
The whole family is just gorgeous and loaded with amazing plants. Note that I largely use the presently accepted taxonomic names for the plants and both the Hawaiian Baby Woodrose and Snake Plant are considered Ipomoea species but were previously in Argyreia and Rivea/Turbina.
I've been studying the genus and family (privately) for awhile now and am moderately familiar with their history, culture, chemistry and taxonomy.
I find them to be lovely plants.

I ALMOST DIED FROM THESE TOO!! About 3 years ago. My God, just so you know, NEVER, I mean NEVER eat these seeds after they've been soaked in water or begin to germinate.
OP, I was planting some of these in my own garden, and I had soaked some old HBWR seeds just to see if they were viable to get rid of them. I had taken them before and had a decent nauseous trip with about 12 seeds a year prior to that. As I was planting them, I thought: "Hm. I don't have anything going on today. I wonder if soaking these seeds took away the nausea causing agent. This is an opportunity I can't pass up (to learn if it's better soaked). I wonder if anyone's ever tried this??" I ate the seeds which were just barely starting to crack open and looked like little brains with their shrivelly leaves barely beginning to unfurl.
I had a very strong trip on 10 seeds, much stronger than before. I didn't sleep at all the night after, and was super ditzy after that. Then, progressively about 4 days later (I kid you not), my short term memory became that of an alzheimer's person. That night, I started gasping for air and my arms and legs went completely numb. I was pretty sure I was dying. I went to the hospital, and they thought I smoked too much weed. I was begging them to put me on oxygen, because I felt like I was suffocating, but my oxygen sats were 99%. Every time I started feeling sleepy, I felt like I was going to die. This stayed like this for 3 days, and I was completely unable to remember anything that happened 1 second ago. My short term memory was nil. It was so scary. I halucinated that night that one of my patients (I'm a doctor) who recently died of prostate cancer was waiting in this black limbo between life and death and wanted to have a second chance at life. He wanted to switch bodies with me, and I was terrified to fall asleep. My girlfriend nursed me back to health, and it took me a full month to come back to "normal".
That was one of the scariest things I've ever experienced, and worst of all, we thought I had brain damage from the seeds. After a little googling after my wits came back to me, I learned that HBWR seeds (and all seeds of plants in the rose family), when germinating, break down a protein which has cyanide bound to it. When a predator eats these seeds, their body will slowly release the cyanide from the protein as the liver breaks down the protein. This is why there was a latent effect 4 days after the trip. My symptoms were IDENTICAL to those of someone with cyanide poisoning. Google it if you think I'm making this up!
OP, and ANYONE ELSE interested in these seeds, should never, ever eat them soaked and/or sprouted. In fact, I recommend not eating them at all. The trip is full of nausea, and you may be getting small amounts of cyanide from even dry dormant seeds. Just stick to mushrooms, cactus, and/or real LSD (not LSA). Those three won't kill your body, but your ego might be a little loosened after a good ego death and resurrection.

I've not read cyanide poisoning lasting days, from the exposure you described. People often feel like they are dieing, enact that is the main reason I don't like "shamen" or trip sitting anymore because it mostly convincing someone that they were not dieing for 4 or more hours.
Now there is an interesting paper I just read from the academic paper thread about "fermentation of ergotamine alkaloids in germinated seeds of HBWR, Morning Glories, and more." They did not mention the cyanide poisoning, though some of the lysergic compounds that were made where said to be toxic and cause egotism. (IE, vomiting, shitting blood, and slow symptoms that do not show until a day after ingestion)
Now interestingly enough I also just read an article from the same thread, about ergotamine alkaloids found in plant tissue, and in there they described to not eat any of the sewed pod membrane due to the abundance of the oil associated with vomiting. I did pull out a couple dirty hippie books on halucigenetic plants that did confirm NOT to eat ANY seed pod material for you will get "very sick" it described lol.
If they didn't draw blood and confirm the low O2 and other stuff, how do you know if you had cyanide poisoning? Mind is extremely powerful influence to a trip.

Sorry for such a late reply. To answer your last question: I had tripped over 30 times on mushrooms before that experience. I have never had problems or bad trips before that. I had even taken HBW seeds on one occasion before that, and had an OKAY trip with nausea. The trip of the particular occasion in question was fine (but full of nausea). I soaked the seeds for a week in my fridge beforehand. They were beginning to germinate, and I did not eat the seed coat (I'd heard that about the nausea too.) It was days later after the trip that my symptoms developed.
Check that link: https://erowid.org/experiences/exp.php?ID=7110
I discovered that report on erowid after my alzheimer-like symptoms (I couldn't remember anything I had done even 1 second earlier) (my wife , family, and best friend literally had to babysit me for a week during this part), feeling of impending doom (which lasted days), constantly feeling like I couldn't get oxygen from the air, and difficulty breathing (especially on the verge of sleep) finally went away 3 weeks after the trip ended. I googled the symptoms of cyanide poisoning, and they were identical to my own. Believe me or not, I'm just warning people what I experienced. According to the erowid post, soaking the seeds releases cyanide into the seed, which is what I did. I thought soaking them would reduce the nausea symtoms, but it did not. If I can save ONE PERSON from having the experience I had, this message is worth it! DO NOT EAT THESE SEEDS. Stick to mushrooms. And/or grow them in your yard and admire their beautiful flowers.

I've taken CWE of these seeds multiple times and never had any negative symptoms besides the expected vasoconstriction.
Seems that for some people they are much worse than for others. The safety profile is not the same as classic psychedelics.

I never had much of a problem when I ate them without being soaked. It was soaking that caused the problem. My dosage and everything was the same between the first trip and the second trip. The time between them was about 4 years.

I also had a pretty insane experience 10 years ago from HBW and wouldn't recommend it at all, similarly I soaked the seeds and took 15 seeds if my memory is correct plus very strong marijuana after I thought the trip wasn't going anywhere. Had experience at that point with mushrooms lsd and salvia, and since then ayahuasca and san pedro to compare with.
After a very disorienting hike with a friend, we quickly returned home and at some point I felt like I had to lay down as I was having time distortion greater than anything i had experienced before and a distinct feeling of reality repeating itself over and over again which was freaking me out like I was stuck in a time loop. I laid down, closed my eyes and at some point went to a place where I lost all contact with senses, I could not physically open my eyes as there was no more body anymore, and I had the standard "convinced I am dying/going to hell" feeling.
I got stuck in some plane of existence where I felt as if I was stuck in what i can best describe as a desert, a completely desolate place of nothingness, tormented to roam there, and felt (truly felt the passing of time) like I was stuck there for thousands of years. It shifted between nothingness and my mind trying to make sense of it and feeling like i was a lost nomad in an actual desert, again for thousands of years/lifetimes, repeating the same life over and over again. It sounds silly to write it out, but that was what the experience felt like, years and years of just being stuck with nothing.
I came back to the sensory world after this pretty shattered as a person and chatting with a friend he thought I was totally normal, but I felt like a madman. I was able to put up the appearance of functioning to my roommates, but inside I felt like I had lost total grip and really struggled to integrate this experience over the next month or so. My roommates were stoners/drank a lot, so nothing much seemed off to them, otherwise i am pretty sure i would have been admitted to a psychiatric facility.
So it felt similar enough to what you described that i thought i would chime in, i also wouldn't wish that experience really on anyone, though i feel like i have grown a lot from having gone through it. i am definitely a lot less fearful of life, i can only really relate it to someone who has perhaps been in a "lost in the wilderness" type experience must feel and am very thankful to have my sanity back. I am now a lot more cautious with recommending psychs to people and with using them myself.

I understand the significance of your experience, I’ve had similar bad times on a couple of other substances.. but these seeds do need to be respected, it’s not just a safe pure substance you can over indulge in without a worry.
15 seeds is a LOT… and by the sound of it soaking them really isn’t the go.
I’ve tripped on these many times, and I think the most I’ve ever taken is 12 (never soaked), and that was strong enough for me. Most of the time I’d just crush up 4-6 of them and have the absolute best time ever after getting over the relatively short wave of nausea and uncomfortable vasoconstriction.
A little bit of alcohol and some ibuprofen was always the go to for me if I felt the body load was too much during the come up. Weed is good at relieving these symptoms too, but it clouds the trip up and can make you very confused, which might be good depending on what you like.

Here’s a few seedlings I’ve just sprouted. They’re loving the weather in FNQ.

Sprouted about 6 days after being soaked and sown and have been growing about 0.5 cm per day, maybe more.

We're same area Bardy, hit me up if you're up for a half day on the weekend. Walk some forest, maybe catch a fish. Chill some tunes or watch the ocean. I'm so easy hey.

It’s a nice looking vine even without flowers. Yeah it’s weird how people say that.. what are they comparing it to? I think I read somewhere the other day to expect a 30cm high plant after about a year.. that seems way off haha

Maybe they are growing it in a windowsill in Europe. 
The main stem on the biggest one is as thick as my wrist. I have to chop back all runners because it wants to eat my house too. The only thing I have that is more voracious is my aya vines. I cut them back to nothing because they were killing anything they managed to wrap themselves around.

Don't you literally need just diethylamine to convert LSA to LSD, or am I mistaken?
Well then the LSD needs to switch isomers with different lighting, otherwise it isn't as potent
Then it needs to be converted into a tartrate I believe. And dissolved in deionized water to be put on tabs or used as liquid
Idk much about the process but I think converting from LSA is the easiest process
It's difficult to find here. Go to the places where you know people sell dr00gz and you get the run of the mill offers of cocaine, ecstacy (not molly usually), heroin, and fentanyl. Ask for LSD and they'll be either giving you odd looks, say they can't get any, or they'll try to pass off 25i-nBOMBe.
I guess one could get really sneaky with ordering off darkweb but then you have people who would rather bust you than an assassin because it's easier.
Honestly the legal psychedelic train is taking too long.

I don’t know how, but here is a recipe I found https://wiki.creativecommons.org/images/archive/1/12/20120404135944%21SERCI_2011_accepted_paper_-_Tal_Niv.pdf
The chemicals you’d need are probably harder to get than LSD itself.
Grow some HBWR. The seeds are awesome!
