slapout 2,834 Posted December 11, 2014 Share Posted December 11, 2014 (edited) A threat of a tablespoon of caster oil was a good enough threat to get those pleading illness to make a rapid recovery and make school on time. The mouth wash using soap was dessert when campared to that foul tasting, smelling, rotten, puke producing crap. Edited December 11, 2014 by slapout Link to post Share on other sites
samuijimmy 28,158 Posted December 11, 2014 Share Posted December 11, 2014 I think that might be a different plant that castor oil comes from! Slapout! ^ Here is one I saw today on Samui. Link to post Share on other sites
xen 1,164 Posted December 11, 2014 Share Posted December 11, 2014 Here is a link to Wiki article on the danger of this plant . http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ricin Link to post Share on other sites
xen 1,164 Posted December 11, 2014 Share Posted December 11, 2014 Coincidently i never heard it called Hogweed - i guess that is the reason we should use the latin names if we know them. The common name I have always known it as was Caster oil plant . Not that important in the grand scheme of things . Link to post Share on other sites

The common name I have always known it as was Caster oil plant . Not that important in the grand scheme of things . Castor plant is not hogweed. The latin name for hogweed is Heracleum mantegazzianum. It is a different plant, posioness, too causing ekzema and allergies Link to post Share on other sites
