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

[The Green Reaper]

if i found shit just growing in the woods first i would have a look and if any where male i would be like wtf ok know one want's these plantes and if they dfo A: they dont have the time to look after them so why should they have them B: they where just fucking around planted like 50 seeds and they just grew or C: there just dickheads and don't know how to grow so hell yes i would take some if any where male and not heathy if they where all female and very well looked after i would feel bad about taking there hard work and leave them becuse i know what that feelings like laters people

Or D) they didnt get to pull them yet or E)they are making a seed crop

Magic you crack me up

For me it is a very touchy subject. On one hand I feel like finding a patch of marijuana growing and stealing it is a shitty thing to do. However good the health of the plants is, someone took the time and effort to get their plants going somewhere. Its the part about the plants just being "somewhere" that is what gives marijuana growers a bad reputation. Having even 1 plant in a spot that an inexperienced grower thinks is "cool" to grow in could turn bad if some sort of forest crew was called by city officials to do work in that area. Not everyone thinks out their spots well enough and thats what bugs me. Before you know it, after a few weeks the police have been notified and start monitoroing areas nearby (after surveilencing the one they already found and bust the poor guy who tried to grow some ganj.". Then, some deserving experienced growers with plants in a spot which would have otherwise been overlooked gets busted because their stinky ass harvest set off the newely assigned drug dog patrol squad. I say if you are able to come across a marijuana plot while casually walking through the woods on your own, while not deliberately looking for marijuana plants (which I would never do and i hope no one would ever do) or walking in a deep remote area of the woods, then it is more than likely that the wrong people could find it. You'd be doing the pot growing community a favor by taking the poorly located plants before the the wrong people do find it and set off red flags for pot growing in the area, then get undeserving well thought out grow operations busted due to increased law enforcement precautions. Thats just my two cents, I guess it would have to depend on my mood and bud situation with what I do too. If I find someones grow in a fucking retarded place but I'm in a good mood I'll leave it unscathed and maybe even water them for them. But if I find a well located healthy grow op which assholes would be dieing to steal while on an extensive nature walk, I'd look at the beautiful plants, admire the growers work, and continue on my way.

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.

Pinching someones sack is the same thing as this.
Remember that ;]

losers weepers.... and a thief is dead if I catch him..... you can ask me for anything in the world, and if I can spare it, it is yours.... I catch you stealing from me... The cances of you walking away are very slim.... if I have a field with a gro in it, and I catch someone pilfering from it.... I am going to bet that after I bury you, I will have some good fertilizer for the next year....

Preach it bro.

I'll help ya out anytime... but don't fuck with what's mine.

Damn, this thread is like flypaper for theives... we're catching ALL the punks here... and sending them on their way with a pretty piece of red candy.

[serpentine5]

LOL

you gro, you get thieves....

I was tought if I was gonna gro, I needed to gro three for every one I wanted... 1 for me, 1 for the cops and 1 for the thieves....
Since I have been here I have also learned that you need to gro 4 for every 1 you want: 1 for me, 1 for the thieves, 1 for the cops, and 1 for the animals....

as tempting as it would be to take the plant(s) i wouldnt.

i would possibly snip some and make a clone but if u were caught doin that they might not believe u and well...

also, if i had enough property where somebody started growin on it, i wouldnt do shit except leave a note saying to transplant that shit outta my property

and if i ever saw somebody near a plant i would wither just leave em be or if they looked like the type of person i'd talk to (well they ARE planting weed...) id just say that i wont tell nobody and i wouldnt blackmail him or nothin but id be like can i get a bit when its done, if not its cool
