Police officers were astounded when they spotted the plant. They have collected it and a spokesperson said it would be disposed of. The couple will face no action from the police. The officers took to their @bedfordlpt Twitter account to express their surprise at the find, saying: "Seized today. Elderly couple bought shrub at car boot sale, tended carefully - biggest cannabis plant we had seen!!"[/QUOTE] The pernicious perennial in question- [IMG]http://news.bbcimg.co.uk/media/images/63365000/jpg/_63365865_policecannabisplant.jpg[/IMG]
That's just beautiful..
I'm sure they'll have a great time disposing of it, I just hope they have plenty of snacks.
That would make a LOT of cannabutter..........
That's....a big cannabis plant.
We need more elderly grow-ops I mean, they could just make up some shit like "lol i didnt know it was drugs, this is awful. I bought it off some dude at a car boot sale.
Bonfire time!
That thing is fucking huge
I've got a friend that's really good at disposing plants like that.
[QUOTE=Sgt-NiallR;37960232]Bonfire time![/QUOTE] Make sure to set the bonfire in a closed room. Holy shit imagine that..

Should've [i]baked[/i] some brownies.
i find it silly that police have to dispose of it when it really is just a harmless plant sitting in a backyard
Oh God... It's so Beautiful.....
That poor plant, it'll be killed by the cruel heartless police-people.
KNIT SWEATERS ERRY DEY
I sort of feel sorry for the plant. It's just like, "Yeah, I'm a plant, chilling in my yard. Oh hey I'm being dug up, transplant time baby. Why do I smell smoke?"

All you guys are dumb, most of that is leaves. I hardly see any buds on there at all. And that is what is smoked. The rest might as well be hemp.
This makes me want to sell cannabis sprouts in decorative pots at, like, a farmers market or something and watch how many people buy them :v: Nobody would know what the fuck they were 'till the DEA was knocking on their door

What we had was 100% leaves, looked more like someone had left a salad in a compost bin really, yet nearly everyone was like "wow, i'm sooo stoned". I didn't feel much at all

Explaining the lack of bud. However it might also not of been in its flowering stage.

Obviously it's just wild parsley.
Where are the legalize pot, 420 blaze it faggot posts?
Damn shame, such a beautiful plant to be destroyed incorrectly.
[QUOTE=locojaws;37960331]i find it silly that police have to dispose of it when it really is just a harmless plant sitting in a backyard[/QUOTE] I don't know why this is being called dumb because he's right, this thing is a male plant, it is incapable of producing bud. It's a harmless hemp plant from what I can see in the image, because there's no trace of bud on it and it would be very noticeable by its odor alone. And to be honest, it's a very lovely color and it's a pretty plant. I don't know why we have to have the most hilarious 0 tolerance policy on something like this.
male cannabis plants are completely useless to people who smoke weed as banned user said there's no reason why they shouldn't just leave this plant
