 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.
