Cannabis look-alike threads, MERGED for your enjoyment!

I have 4 Istibes growing on the north side of my house and just went to look. Not even close.

Well if it was a 5 foot plant, maybe you should have said so. And if you had a right to be tromping around other peoples' yards, you might have mentioned that too. I'm not sure what the homeowner being rich or old has anything to do with it either, lol. You think elderly ladies don't grow pot?
The foliage IS very similar to astilbe. There is also another wild weed that grows in New England that can get quite tall with leaves like that.
But either way, it's NOT pot. It looks nothing like pot... Totally wrong leaf structure. You've actually seen a pot plant before, no?

One other thing, I'm no kid.

I did say it was a 5 foot plant. Please reread my original post.

Well, that's great, but go back and re-read your posts... with no other information, they read EXACTLY like other posts we've all seen in the past, where kids find some random plant and then ask if it's safe to smoke, or take it from someone's back yard.
Since our members are largely medical card holders who depend on their plants for MEDICINE, we take theft of plants very very seriously.

OK. I agree with all that. Except the no info thing. I provided plenty of info.
Was just looking for info on what it was.
yes I have seen plants before and this looked so close to the real deal ( in person) I pulled a three footer, took it home and showed it to my wife. She said it wasn't, but also said she has never seen anything else like it. So I planted it and tried for 4 days to find out what it was.
Sorry I offended anyone.

And I'm sorry I assumed you were a kid.
I highly recommend just saving your own seeds, like bag seeds to practice on. Growing from scratch is the best way to learn, even if it is too late in the year to do anything much this season.

Found this plant and had to take a second look. The leaf structure is almost identical to weed, except the leaf does not split into five.
