Ok, so I didn't know where to post this, but I figured a lot of people would see it here. This was an idea I had while trying to think of a good way to celebrate 4:20 this year, and this is what I came up with.
You save your good seeds from your bags and what-not, and then every year on 4:20 (that's about the time you should plant anyway), you go out with all of your freinds and walk around in the wild (places where people won't mow or cut down the plants, anywhere really) smokin' or whatever, and plant all of your seeds.
The whole idea is to re-introduce it into the wild. You don't even have to keep track of the plants, but at least we are giving it a chance.
What do you think?

you should plant any chance you get.

Yeah, I know, but 4:20 is about the time of year no matter where you are in the world (if you can grow outside at all) to plant for the growing season. That and it's a great excuse to go camping in a national park and plant and camp for like 3 or four days.

And its a good reason to by loads of weed and save it so you can get fucked on 4:20.

I think mr. emery's idea of 'overgrowing' was a bit better... but still something that needs to be done. I agree that you should plant them whenever you get them. I love smoking on road trips and dropping the seeds off on the way... that way they'll grow on the side of the road where everyone gets to see them...
But check out how Marc did it, although he's may loose his life for it - he is the johnny appleseed of pot already and unless you got a million or so seeds you've got a bit to catch up to him :)
But imagine if we all planted all the seeds we got, it would grow like wildfire.
( by the way keep the good seeds to grow yourself, use the 'shwagg' seeds they will grow just as well in the wild)

Yeah, it's easy to get pumped up about it. Spread the word to anybody you know, I want this plant to grow everywhere in the country.
It's so easy too.
Tell your friends!! (and your other boards and stuff)

I know it's been done before, but I think that using 4:20 as an added kind of cultural thing will get more people involved.
And as an added bonus, it gets people into our national parks (but look out for the growers that are poaching land, they are extremely violent).
Yay, for family bonding.
Ok, I'll give up the title for now, but I'm still a contender.

I hardly ever get weed with seeds in it, lol! Maybe I should start buying some mids, so I can join in the johnny apple weed project...
Lets do it!

hopefully with enough seeds a few males and females will sprout up together.. i know if weed gets going and both sexes are present the plant can spread fast in a year or two... plus another good reason for the males... Instead of killing them when you grow them should go plant them in the gorund somewhere. They won't flower, but will spread pollen around everywhere.... Wish I would have done that on my last harvest, I had 6 Males out of all of them, but just killed them... I fell like I may be behind in the race now.
I'm gonna go plant some seeds in the middle of no where... I got about 20-25 i've saved from the past two weeks. We should keep motivating people to at least save the seeds and hopefully plant them though.

I posted this idea awhile ago. Its the same idea basically, but a little more advanced, save all your seeds for awhile, then on 420, instead of throwing em around in the woods. everyone get a helium balloon or two and fill them buggers full of seeds and let them go. eventually the balloon will burst, and disperse the seeds over a pretty good sized area!!!!

^ Personally, I'd prefer planting the seeds I have.
I knew keeping these seeds would work out in some way -- well, this thread helped on the idea. I've got roughly three pounds of nothing but seeds, all shwag, of course. I'm probably going to take a trip out into the local wooded areas here and plant a few hundred.

I like the baloon idea a whole lot. But I think this is a great way to undermine the laws without really getting in trouble. I've already got about 200 seeds from growers and sellers that I know and i'm getting more, so I think we really should make this a kind of revolution.
Guerrilla Gardening, sweet.
Pass it on.

I know I talk a lot about marc emery, but if any of you really like this idea you must read what he's done... www.cannabisculture.com
he pretty much did this for the last ten years with over 1,000,000 seeds...
think it's the best idea of helping this plant become free...
Kid Panda

Yeah, I know who he is, but he's really more of a seed vendor. I'm not sure I count that as actually planting the seeds (although he's still freaking awesome).
Didn't the US extradite (sp?) him to seatle for his seed business and the canadian government did nothing to stop them?

The US shut down his seed business, but his magazine, website and such are still up and he still runs them. Um, they are still fighting the US and are in Canada, but still may be forced here. It's a long process... right now he's pretty much the front man in canada for legalization

this is the best idea i've ever heard of. everyone oughtta save their seeds and just sprinkle them out in the forrest where no one will find them. then if they mature , and are unharmed, congradulations on your new crop. i wish i had like 10 pounds of marijuana seeds though, cause then i'd just drive around in the hills and country backroads throwing them by the handfull out my window.

Outdoor growers are gonna HATE this idea. lol (Males will polinate for miles with some wind)
It's been mentioned before and I'm sure there will be plenty of people doing this very idea.
Kid Panda

yeah, sorry for the outdoor guys, but I think we really should get this idea popularized.
seed the planet.
