Ha, hallucinogenic veggies. These plants can be a problem but only if the neighborhood kids know to ingest the plant. I can understand your concern though. I would just dig the root ball out, turn the soil well adding some compost and then just plant your veggies. You will then have to watch for seedlings of the plant as they reseed themselves pretty easily. There will be no transfer of the plants chemicals to the soil and any roots left will just compost. Maybe you could relocate your plant to a pot in the backyard. I grow a few brugmansia's which are a very similar plant in pots very successfully. They are such a beautiful plant to have on the patio. _____________________________________________ Check out my veggie garden blog: http://veggiegardenblog.blogspot.com/

Dan, I assume you mean white Datura? Maybe? If so, I have some I rec in a trade. If so, I am curious about and maybe interested in your tomato Tamina. What is the source of the seed? From trade? Purchased? LMK...Thanks Sue...chemocurl

Sending email. Thank you for sharing! :)

Hello! Oh my gosh, I have seedlings! lol I can't believe I didn't label the cups I put them in. I know one of them was from that corky looking one because I soaked the seed and saw a little white root starting and I peeled off the outer layer. I have three cups and two are up. Two of them had the corky seeds and I am pretty sure I planted a datura double purple in the other. The two that came up don't look the same, so I think I have one of each. One reminds me of a tomato seedling. At any rate, wow I am so impressed and am now going to start a ton more! lol Thanks all for the help and...if you can tell me what the tomato looking seedling is? Does look somewhat like the first two leaves of the datura above. The other seed is just sprouting but the stem looks very hairy. Wasn't that fast? I am so excited! lol Thanks judith for all that helpful info. adam
