Talk:Morning glory

message: The statement that morning glory seeds are 5-10 percent as potent as LSD doesn't really make sense to me. Is LSA that potent? Or Something?  What is the objective standard here.  I think that needs a citation and restatement.  User:awaggener
:I'm pretty sure that it is the LSA that is that potent.  Look at erowid under LSA  Cloaked Dagger 13:01, 31 July 2006 (UTC)

message: I am so offended!!! No one realised that the morning glory is the national flower of Korea, and also is the name of an awesome import store chain?

message: Unfortunately, tho lovely, the morning glory is so invasive that it has taken over all of the flower beds and is now traversing the lawn.  Is there any way to eradicate this plant?
:Hmm odd that SinBot didn't get that.  Lots and lots of salt?  j/k You will need to pull them all up and destroy flowers before they can seed.  Luckily, this plant seems to be a seeded variety and not like strawberries or roses.  You could also sell the seeds to make up for the cost of a good tiller.  ;)  2601:1:9280:155:A980:1ECE:9F5:3B08 (talk) 07:14, 2 March 2014 (UTC)
thread_title:  morning glory - invasive 

message: This page seems to be overly obsessed about the entheogenic qualities of morning glory. I don't really know much about the flowers, or have sources of information so I can't do much for this article. I'm just saying this plant should have a page of comparable quality to other flowers and plants instead of being random trivia and a portal for druggies.Mx. Terra 00:22, 14 August 2006 (UTC)

replies: text: Looks like this was fixed back in 2008, but somebody did it again on the 16th of this month. Went ahead and changed it to the last non-vandalized version, "over 1,000".  Then again, maybe some phrasing less suggestive than "over 1,000" should be used to make future vandalism less likely? :-) Mr. Accident (talk) 17:16, 29 March 2010 (UTC)
thread_title:  4chan... 

message: the recreational use section sounds more like an anti-drug pamphlet than an encyclopedia entry. This is bad practice - give the information, not your opinion.
:"If you do not like hallucinating, don't ingest the seeds. The seeds are especially dangerous if you have a history of liver disorders. During pregnancy they can cause uterine contraction that can lead to miscarriage. The seeds are vasoconstrictive, so leave them alone if you are elderly or have a history or family history of cardiovascular disease (heart attack, blood clot or stroke)."
The second person tense needs to be removed. Any objections?

message: Morning Glory is just another name for the correct name.  Thus, it should be redirected to the correct name as per Wikipedia:WikiProject Plants#Plant article naming conventions. --Notmyhandle (talk) 01:58, 28 March 2010 (UTC)

thread_title:  BEES 

message: Trying to fill this article.  Can someone verify if these are indeed members of/closely related to this family, please?
Platycodon AKA Balloon Flower?  This is a popular variety in Japan?
Moon Flower? Seed packet says it's Ipomoea.  Used to be called Calonyction but is now merged.  See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ipomoea_alba
What is the relationship (if any) to the Korean namesake?
Toxicity levels?  These plants contain a lot more than LSA in their seeds.  Kind of like how poppies can kill you long before you get the intoxicating effects - not that I've tried anything that suicidally stupid.  Begs the question of how they discovered this and how to safely extract the opium.  :/
Popularity by region?  Where do these grow the best?  Other questions a gardener and not a junky would want to know the answers to.  Cases of poisoning (livestock for example)?  States/Governments that have outlawed or tightly controlled them?  I'm frankly amazed that in a country with sassafras (not sure if true still - tons of non-banned plants have Safrole) and the atomic element iodine banned, that these flowers haven't been.  Then again, maybe it's almost every flowering plant that has these kinds of things in their seeds or flowers?

thread_title:  Finding more information to fill article 

message: There also exists an entry called "Convolvulus". Shouldn't they be merged? They seem to be about the same thing. 
Other common names for morning glory are bindweed and convolvulus.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2.235.212.17 (talk) 08:20, 15 April 2014 (UTC)
