          It is a lovely plant, done well for the weather we've had.

          To be fair, it was probably sold to them as a pot plant, they just didn't get it.

          There is a mad yank that lives near here, escaped the Vietnam war by becoming a Buddhist. My mates elderly Mother had a sign outside saying "Pot Plants for sale"

          There was quite a long conversation between her & the yank, involving him congratulating her for being so open about selling it:snork:

          When the penny finally dropped & Mike established she didn't actually have any pot, he got some out and offered her some of his:snork:

          Ben's mum just didn't know what to make of it:what::biggrin:

            For sure not a teen or a smoker ....:lunapic 130165696578242 5:...a well educated smoker would have gone there and congratulating them and ask for few cutting out of that bush ....

            overall I would really like to know if they have charged the poor couple , in today society peoples get catched with kilos of them and get away with it .....

                this is such a deep thinking for a plain creature like me...:spinning:

                anyway talking about not having a clue what you are selling first example that springs to mind is comet and dixon (but ,you know, I may have been unlucky to always find clueless sales assistants....)

                Serious question, is it possible to grow the stuff to maturity outside in the UK?

                I'm not well up on the subject, but I do like the plant, and was told you need it to flower in order to get the resin.
                Are we not slightly OTT here with this particular type of plant, as I'm told you dont smoke the leaves.

                I obviously missed out in my youth as I just smoked JPS or Hamlet.
