LSA Seeds: Hawaiian Baby Woodrose, Morning Glory and More

The Spanish chroniclers who reached Mexico wrote down a seed the Aztecs called ololiuqui, taken by priests to answer questions. Centuries later Albert Hofmann identified what was in it: lysergic acid amide. The same compound turns up in the seeds sold on this page.

What are LSA seeds

LSA stands for lysergic acid amide, an ergoline alkaloid also known as ergine. Plants in the Convolvulaceae family park it in their seeds, which is why seed is the format you buy rather than leaf or root. It is not a lab product and it is not an extract. It is a seed with an alkaloid in it, and the concentration varies from seed to seed, between 3 and 34 micrograms in specimens of the same size.

The plants that carry it

Hawaiian Baby Woodrose (Argyreia nervosa) is the heavyweight: a perennial climber from the Indian subcontinent with heart-shaped leaves, white trumpet flowers and thick furry seeds, ten to a pack. The Madagascar variety is the same species grown elsewhere and has a reputation for hitting harder. Morning Glory (Ipomoea tricolor) is the annual cousin from Mexico and Central America, a fast 2.5 to 3 metre vine sold by weight at 10 grams a pack. Ololiuqui itself, Rivea corymbosa, is the third species in the family and the one the historical accounts describe. Our guide to Hawaiian Baby Woodrose goes deeper on the botany.

LSA compared with LSD

Same molecular backbone, very different afternoon. LSD is bright, fast and visual. LSA is slower, heavier and turned inward, closer to lying in a hammock than to a light show, and it tends to send people to sleep at the end rather than leave them wired. If you want the chemistry properly explained, read LSD vs LSA.

How people take them

Effects usually run 4 to 10 hours, so it is an evening, not a quick errand. Nausea is the honest catch: LSA is rough on the stomach and a queasy opening hour catches most first-timers out. Keep a sober friend nearby, do not stack it with anything else, and read LSA effects and dosage before you plan a session. If you would rather not deal with seed at all, Trip-E capsules hold 150 mg of Hawaiian Baby Woodrose each, with 15 mg of caffeine to take the edge off the drowsiness.

Our range and delivery

Four options, all sent in plain unbranded packaging with fast UK delivery. Fresh stock matters more here than with most seeds, because alkaloid content fades in seeds that have sat in a warm warehouse for years. Ours move quickly. The wider smartshop range has the rest.
