Reed grass or reed canary grass (phalaris arundinacea)   contains many indole alkaloids such as N,N-DMT, MMT, 5-MeO-DMT. A perenniel plant, it grows to a height of 1.5m with a spread of 0.5 m. The stem is erect, stout and smooth; the leaves are long, flat, 2cm wide and reed-like, the flowers are pale green or purplish, occurring in terminal panicles and appearing in summer. A native of Europe and North America, it prefers moist, wet soils in marshes or at the edges of ponds and river banks, and is frost resistant but drought tender. Propagation is by seed or division. Plants are self sterile and need at least two plants grown from different seed to pollinate. The pharmacology of phalaris arundinacea varies greatly. Generally present are the alkaloids DMT, MMT, 5-MeO-DMT and gramine. Gramine is quite toxic and may be responsible for most of the toxic effects possible from phalaris ingestion. All phalaris species can be induced to produce more alkaloids by stressing them. Stress can be in the form of clipping, shading or lack of water and should be applied for one to two weeks before taking samples.
