BlackPuddingBertha Posted February 11, 2013 Share Posted February 11, 2013 Pot plants is slang for marijuana. Really? It certainly is in the US. In the UK one could say either pot plants or potted plants and be understood as meaning ornamental plants in pots. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tropo Posted February 11, 2013 Share Posted February 11, 2013 Pot plants is slang for marijuana. Really? It certainly is in the US. In the UK one could say either pot plants or potted plants and be understood as meaning ornamental plants in pots. Same in Australia, New Zealand and South Africa. A "pot plant" is a plant in a pot. As a non-smoker I didn't appreciate the double meaning. I'll have to be careful when communicating with Americans. Do you have any idea why it is called "pot"? "Dope" or "smoko" is more common where I come from and the origin quite obvious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rimmer Posted February 12, 2013 Share Posted February 12, 2013 How ever did a topic about the weather morph into one about Marijuana? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Upnotover Posted February 12, 2013 Share Posted February 12, 2013 Hey tropo, thanks for that. I may be reading it wrongly but it shows the average over 30 years, it does not appear to show the trend over 30 years ?? And it ends 22 years ago.

meatballs Posted February 12, 2013 Share Posted February 12, 2013 I think it's always bad weather. Either soggy or humid. I just went out and I'm sweating like mad. It's hot out there! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
