New Caprican leaf[1] refers to a mildy-psychotropic plant[2] indigenous to New Caprica.
It is seen briefly, being smoked by Admiral Adama and Laura Roslin during the New Caprica groundbreaking ceremony (Unfinished Business).
Notes
- RDM confirmed its psychotropic status in the podcast for "Unfinished Business".
- RDM uses the term "joint" when referring to the plant in the podcast for "A Day in the Life".

- ↑ Considering its relatively quick application into familiar weed cigarettes and cigars by Roslin and presumably other New Capricans, New Caprican loco weed may be related to similar plants on Kobol and on some if not all of the Twelve Colonies. No information is available on whether the plant was a true weed or a parallel to the real-world Earth substance colloquially referred to as "weed" or "marijuana."
