So I came up with this idea a couple of days ago, was gonna code it myself but I haven't coded in ages im way too rusty:
Basicly a new clown traitor item that is a cannabis seed that grows a unique strain of weed which doesn't contain THC, might contain a small amount of rainbow fluid, otherwise it's just like water or something that does nothing. Looks exactly like weed unless you analyze it or extract it's reagents. Clown pranks where a clown grows a bunch of this stuff and just makes flamethrowers with just the extracted rainbow fluid. Might be a bad idea depending on how rare rainbow fluid is to get. If so, then yeah it's just prank weed. Maybe it could have rainbow fluid but it always is a bad harvest with 0 or 1 seed, to prevent abuse. Likely not used a lot, but funny for the clown if it is used.

considering how clownitis knocks your clothes, shoes and mask onto the floor, it is more dangerous than might be first suspected, especially if used on someone in a hazardous environment. it is quite suitable for being a traitor item, kind of like a hyper mustache grenade that keeps on giving, but be cautious...
also it should indeed have some genuine hallucinogens in it alongside the rainbow fluid, and it should be visually similar or indistinguishable from genuine rainbow weed

The clown already has a ton of unique traitor items, and there is a patch right now waiting for approval for tactical clown shoes. So maybe this should go to botanists instead of clowns.

in that case then it should obviously come in more varieties, to reflect their botanical acumen. forbidden varieties... powerful varieties...

I agree that this should be a botanist traitor item. The clown's only botany access is the public garden. They can't properly care for their weed without fully botany access.
My only concern is that it might be too powerful. Botany has the tools for chem extraction. Couple this with a sleepy pen and a clown plague will fall upon the station.
Though, that's not the worst thing that could happen. The worst thing the could happen would be if it could mutate into a painbow fluid producing mutant. In the hands of a turbonerd, the ensuing cluwne plague would make even the most robust of wiznerds shed a solemn tear.

Clown weed, with cluwne mutation and maybe like a shitty weed that turns you into shitty bill. Like make a couple mutations is what I'm saying
Monkey weed?????

turning ppl into monkeys is chefs job with burgers, or genetics
maybe chems from strange seed alien plants could turn people into different aliens depending on the plant tho. martians especially

Well my original idea was just weed that literally did nothing, so any botanists trying to get high would be severely dissapointed. I do like the idea of traitor weed with weird mutations. Given being cluwned is practically a death sentence, maybe no painbow fluid. Also the whole 'gives no/very little seeds' that I pointed out would be important for these weird weed things, to prevent abuse.

how well does the chem in question penetrate skin. maybe we could make gas masks and biosuits relevant to this

Rainbow fluid? I think it's ingest only but I'm not sure. Either way you should be able to extract it and put in a flamethrower with the igniter off and it should work.

if we are talking about a new strain of weed, it would be cool if it was laced with unstable mutagen or uranium or some shit, so its disappointing when you want to get high and instead you get narcolepsy
