Be cool to each other. We'll welcome most occult themes, it's okay if you stray from witchcraft a bit.

No advertising. No trolling. No hate. Violaters will be removed unceremoniously.

I love to collect herbs. But I hate to tell people about that because just after then, I ccan discover how much people love to believe in "cancer curing herbal medicine".

My father once suggested a toxic plant is great for health.

It sucks when a hobby you like is full of weirdos. I've been looking into both solar panels and getting rid of a lot of my lawn but SEVERAL times I've been watching a video and the host drops something about homeschooling or religion. I just wanted tips on growing potatoes, man.

RIP, same. I've sometimes dreamed about having some big-ass pretty garden and getting fruits and veggies from it, so my mom and I like to watch cool shit like people's giant greenhouse homes. And then you'll hear some tradwife and homeschooling shit in there and just get sad.

Yeah. And it seems like there's a big overlap between houseplant enthusiasts and the same "herbal remedy" folks you're familiar with, too

Hit me up if you want panel tips, it's kinda my thing

Honestly, I’d recommend talking to a landscape designer. If you find a good one, they can help you sort all that out, and at least all the ones I know are plant nerds first and foremost, and so aren’t too impressed with the tradwife performance gardening nonsense.

I don't know what the plant was, but both of those can be true (though be careful). "The dose makes the poison." Everything is poison in large enough quantities. A lot of toxic things can be very beneficial in smaller doses.
