What do I do if I find cannabis plants growing in the wild?

[ZeldaG.]

niiicee...

lol

I was in Kosovo about a 3 years ago when I was in the Marines and I found a bush about 3ft tall

real nice of you to leave it but i must say it was probably a wild bush if ksosvo is one of them eastern europe/rusia type of countries cos in them places it grows wild beacause it was legal for longer i believe and they didnt destroy it so well when they criminalized it, i know people in eastern europe that grew it legally for cow medicine and thread not 40 years ago and i hear some people still grow fields of hemp on farms, couple of years ago i bought a large bag of leafs, seeds and stems for about 2 quid (in eastern europe) from some kid who cut down a bloody wild bush lol no bud but i didnt really have hte knowledge than, smoked hte leafs, and some seeds lol, gave away many seeds to potential growers, from what i know not many survived to be harvested lol anyway i writing all weird now lol

This question comes up every year about this time.

You might be out hiking and stumble across a single cannabis plant, or a whole bunch of them.

Your first reaction might be, "wow, that's a lot of pot, I can't wait to get it home and smoke it! That's enough for the whole winter!", or even "I bet I can sell that stuff and pay off my car loan!"

But please stop and think for a moment.

Someone has put those plants there, taken risks, and worked hard caring for them since June. They aren't just growing there by themselves and someone is going to be heartbroken that they're gone.

Think about the grower as another person.

Maybe they would like to have some smoke for the winter, but can't afford the prices that dealers charge.

Maybe they are growing a few plants to sell.

Maybe they are counting on that income to help buy food and fuel for the coming winter.

Remember too that one of the obstacles to the legalization of cannabis is the theft, violence, and general dishonesty that can spin off of it. When tokers can be ethical and all get along without stealing each others' stashes, and then having the snots beat out of them for it, the case becomes stronger that it is a relaxing and peaceful way to alter your perceptions.

So when you stumble on a plant in the woods, remember that as a toker, you are part of this community. Just leave it there for the person who grew it.

i agree if i came across a bunch of plants i would take a bit but i wouldnt take it all or destroy the plant that is totally out of order

fuck that shit take the whole damn plant!..........................................


just playin, I will have a few growin outside this spring and i would be heated if somebody destroyed my plant. even more so if they did it right before they started budding because i have never seen a flowering marijuana plant.

stealing others peoples grows is just fuckin wrong im gonna plant some in the woods an if some one took it id just just be so upset especailly takin the time to plant risk the police risk my parents findin out just so some lazy bastard can steal it all for him or herself.

The fucking drug buzyness is full of all kinds of creepizoid violent bastards. We are a bunch of pot smokers, do we have to go there? If a bunch of plants is as important to you as your first born you have an attitude problem. There is an old saying in the outdoor grow world, plant three, one for the cops, one for the rippers and one for you. The way I look at it the more people growing the more the cops are diverted from my grow. Leave it alone and grow your own, it's easy.

[mass12]

deff. grow your own stealin shit is fuckin wrong afta someone spent all that time and money on thier plants

[slartipamure]

It is just plain impolite to mess with somone elses grow ALWAYS leave it alone. However if you have a backbone and truly feel that to grow is everyones right i see no harm in leaving a note with either your e-mail or phone number (someone has to take the first step) so that you can meet a grower in your area. Meeting some of the locals opens up a great opportunity to meet some locals and share genetics with some local like minded types and they should probably be advised that there grow is easy to find. Over the last few years i have had some plans stolen and it is a shitty feeling, I always like to think of pot smokers as being decent types and morally a bit above the rest of society but unfourtunatly loooking at the pattern of thefts i have seen in the past a lot of smokers are no better than the rest of the selfish bastards out ther and this makes me sad. last year my biggest loss was a bunch of plants that i was using for seed production for the local med pot growers org. and this shows to me that they both knew nothing (seeded pot can't be a treat to smoke) and cared for no one other than themselves. ok i am rambling a bit but the bottom line is respect your fellow pot growers.
