Marijuana isn't the only drug growing wildly in New York City. Jimsonweed, a hallucinogenic plant scientifically known as Datura stramonium and stoner-ly known as "devil's trumpet," was discovered growing in the Gowanus section of Brooklyn.

According to a post on The New York Times City Room blog, this weed is so chronic, it's actually banned in Connecticut and considered a "noxious plant" marked for extermination in several other states. It also makes you hallucinate like a bona fide nutjob.

So, of course, hundreds of you will probably flock to the F and G stop at Smith and 9th Streets tonight to pick the area dry -- just in case you can handle its trippy contents and, you know, not die.

Jimsonweed wasn't always the toxic death bomb we know and love today. Previously, it was used by medical types to treat everything from cramps to asthma to the runs and bed-wetting. Of course, its psychotropic properties convinced plenty of Deadheads to try it over the years, with disastrous results. Some users experience delirium after eating the plant, but they are much more likely to experience zooming body temperatures, cottonmouth and near insanity.

If you think we're joking in this "stay away" PSA, keep reading for a clip from an "Inside Edition" exposé on jimsonweed, which shows someone freaking out on New York's latest drug habit.

And if that looks hilarious to you (well, it kind of does to us, too), you might want to read what one YouTube user said of the jimsonweed (aka "datura") experience:

"I just did datura with my friend and we extremely underestimated its hallucinatory power," the anonymous commenter writes. "We shared an entire water bottle filled with datura water; after about two hours, we were completely out of it. We both ended up being hospitalized for two days because of the poison levels and the whole time I couldn't tell what was real or not."
