 i   had   this   idea   that  you  could 
  construct reality checks (as for lucid  
 dreaming, where  you'd learn this  habit 
 of  trying to sneakily  break the  rules 
 of   causality  or   physics,   such  as 
 flipping a  light  switch  to  see if it 
 actually  turns   off   the  lights,  or 
 trying  to  get  your  hands   to  phase 
 together. the thought being that if  any 
 of the  "checks"  actually worked, you'd 
 know  you   were  dreaming)  for  datura 
                  plants.                 
                                          
 i thought, you could  get in  the  habit 
 of throwing things  on the ground,  like 
    pens. meant to portray cigarettes,    
 because everyone who does datura  smokes 
 cigarettes.  (they  in  fact aren't, and 
 so  sooner   or   later  the  cigarettes 
 disappear, and they  search  the ground, 
 but nothing's there.) throwing  pens  on 
 the ground  and picking  them  back  up. 
 and be  really concerned if they weren't 
               to be there.               
                                          
 this  is  probably  not  how  deliriants 
 work.    but   i   had    the   thought.
