Awesome, it was so great to see a live taste test of the toothache plant! I actually grew it for the first time this year too, and while it's an amazing plant, it definitely needs constant watering and didn’t handle the dry conditions too well. Watching everyone's reactions was both hilarious and insightful-it's awesome to see real feedback on how these plants we grow taste, feel, and look. It’s something that's often missing in gardening videos. I totally relate to thinking I was having an allergic reaction when I first tried it-nothing bad happened, but it was pretty scary at first! I found that the bugs in my area did like to eat the leaves so had to use slug control too. They grow really fast once established and the bullseye variety I got looks great. I now have a bunch of seeds so looking forward to growing more next year. I’d love to try making a tincture from it too with an alcohol base. Then you can use it year-round to treat mouth sores. Yes, please would love to see more videos like this! It is the unique plants that really keep me hooked on gardening so seeing unusual things like this is brilliant. LOL love the bloopers' best part 😁
😂😂Too Funny! I have grown it for 2 years and never tried it 😬. I grow the eyeball variety and the seeds are prolific and grows very easy. It does not like to be dried out in hot sun. Just a fun low growing plant.
