The Canucks should make up their minds. They tax marijuana seed sales.

"That many plants would have the potential to generate about 42 million joints."

So are they talking party cigars or pinners?

These are the same folks who leave big clumps of dirt on the roots when they weight plants.

A least half of them would be male plants. Most consider males unsmokable.

Doesn't matter. Two seeds could produce the same results over time, provided one of the plants turns out to be male and the other female.

Kind of a silly estimate when talking about living things that reproduce.

200,000 seeds, enough to run 500 grow operations if planted and nurtured correctly ... That many plants would have the potential to generate about 42 million joints

Or, they could have been used to produce another 10,000,000 seeds which, in turn, could produce 2 billion joints ...

200,000 seeds is what, about one 14x14x20 box full .. not exactly the bust of the century.

Sinful Caesar sipped his snifter, seized his seeds and sneezed.

It used to be that LEOs would give street value by the joint for small pot busts – it would make it look bigger than it really was. Now they’re doing it for seeds?

Investigators claim they seized 200,000 seeds, enough to run 500 grow operations if planted and nurtured correctly.

Gosh, they didn't state what the correct method of nurturing is, did they? Just curious for scientific reasons only...
