Peyote Plants in GTA Online (Explained)
A Peyote Plant is a small, spineless cactus with a flower on top. In GTA Online, consuming it induces hallucinogenic effects based on the real-life Peyote.
Peyote Plants grow on the surface and underwater. Sometimes, they’re grown in a garden pot like on the front porch of Lester’s House.
Upon approaching, an animal sound will be heard, dictating what you’ll turn into when the plant is eaten. You can do so in Passive Mode, where no player can damage you. Cops will also ignore your crimes.
The following is a list of all playable animals on both land and water (during the hallucination):
| Land | Water |
|---|---|
| Boar | Dolphin |
| Border Collie | Fish |
| Cat | Hammerhead Shark |
| Chicken | Killer Whale |
| Cougar | Stingray |
| Great Cormorant | Tiger Shark |
| Coyote | |
| Cow | |
| Elk | |
| Husky | |
| Pig | |
| Pigeon | |
| Poodle | |
| Pug | |
| Rabbit | |
| Golden Retriever | |
| Rottweiler (Chop) | |
| Seagull | |
| West Highland Terrier | |
| Bigfoot |
You can end the hallucination by pressing “E” on the PC, swimming in head-deep water, or getting hit by a vehicle.
How Many Peyote Plants are in GTA Online?
There are 76 Peyote Plants in GTA Online. Fifty-two are found on land, while 24 exist underwater. Two of the land Peyote Plants located at the foot of Mount Chiliad and the Clinton Residence lets you play as Bigfoot and Chop, respectively.
Important: Peyote Plants respawn after one GTA day (48 real-life minutes). They despawn during rainy and stormy weather.
All Peyote Plant Locations in GTA Online
There is no perfect pathway when finding each Peyote Plant across the map. However, we’ve made one for land and water to avoid crisscrossing as much as possible.
