potatoe berries look like black nightshade or any of the other non-edible ones, so it is poisonious. if it turns green is inedible. the most famous one is deadly night shade, atropa belladona, others like MANDRAKE, horse chestnut, datura, brugmansia
Mandrake is a nice hobby project. Only takes a couple of years and a whole lot of luck to sprout one from seed. The plant is quite unusual and sprouts beautiful flowers.
Datura and belladona are powerful allucinogens. I’ve known people that toyed with them for “religious” purpouses (neo-pagans).
