i found a half smoked cigar down a drain once outside & that ruined my entire day

Brazil is where the weirdest plants are, they have acai too. Where i am the wildest thing you'll find on that department is blackberries growing wild fucking everywhere. Also a plant that rewires your taste buds for like 30 minutes to unknown flavors but i forgot how it's called.

that still sounds fun i'd probably try that & drink an entire bottle of ranch
Apeson
Nevermind I'm pretty sure it was a miracle fruit growing wildly for some reason. I don't even know how it got here considering it's a niche plant from west Africa
CX2
i think theres an entire group of plants from africa that can give you a high that they casually sell at like home depot but idk what its called

I have these growing. They're very sweet but it's a bit tedious to eat with all of the seed removal and peeling you have to do.

i think they grow these in some places out in southeast asia iirc
Apeson
Probably. They're native to the americas though so they pretty much grow without much effort here.
CX2
i wonder if they could grow somewhere like florida since i think most tropical fruit in north america is grown there
if i live down there again i could probably try growing stuff like that if i got the time & yard space
Apeson
They'll grow on a subtropical climate as long as there's enough rain. You should start with something more simple though, like papaya.
CX2
i haven't had papaya in years but i could probably try that
i think it was bad but only because it wasn't ripe
Apeson
Papaya is only ripe when it is soft to the touch and has yellow spots.

i think red guava would be nice to grow since i find it hard to find where i live now but i think that it would only grow far down south so idk about that
i think you can find it in stores in florida anyways so idk if it would be worth growing
Apeson
Guava fruit suffers a lot from infestations by fruit flies.

southeast asia and central/south america have some of the most funniest looking plants and idk why
CX2
thats unfortunate
i think most plants in southeast asia are imported from the americas because i remember a lot of the plants there were from america
Apeson
Honestly I think it's the opposite. Bananas, oranges, lemons and limes are all from southeast Asia. Only a few American fruits like pineapple are notable, and tomato and chili pepper if you wanna get reddit and count it as a fruit.

just looked at this map and now i know why se asia and the americas have odd fruits
CX2
maybe it was specific to where i lived but for a bit before coming to america i lived on a small island in southeast asia & things like papaya & guava were very common i actually had no clue they were native to america until coming back from asia
