Great bust. Are the cops idiots? An 80 year old man? Sometimes words fail me and I can only shake my head.

I note that the package printing shows both sativa and indicia strains. Zooming in I see no bud/flowers, only leaves. Further I see no serrations  on

leaf edges or the typical white 'frosting' that are the THC containing trichomes on the leaf surface. These are usually macroscopically visible on mature plants. Maybe the resolution is not high enough to be sure.

 

Still, I am highly suspicious of this picture. In other words I don't smell a skunk. ????

The low price is also suspicious.

It's entirely possible that these products are legal because their THC content is below the 0.2% mandated.

 

If I were you I would have bought a package, gone home to 'test' its THC content. If satisfied I would have returned and bought the entire display case before it disappeared.

 

But that's just me and I've never been noted for my good sense.

I saw this product or something like it in big say some months ago. Initially I noticed over a few days there were about 10 promotional men and women pushing marijuana leaves as Bob Marley played in the background.

 

The following week I noticed that the leaves were in a refrigerator and there was a huge stock of them as if no one bought a single packet.

 

What is the purpose this rubbish is sold for? I can only think herbal flavor (yuk) or decoration (stupid). It's worthless.

"Stupid weed" used to mean the weed was so strong it made ya stupid.  This must be moron weed...you'd have to be a moron to spend money on it.

The whole 'sativa' and 'indica' thing on the packages is surely false.

I feel very sure it's useless.
