A member of the public spotted the plants and alerted Greater Manchester Police who seized the haul. a half wit or the complete idiot

Greater Manchester Police Chadderton uploaded pictures onto their Twitter account of the cannabis including one showing a police car filled to the brim with bagged up plants.



In a bizarre version of 'how many pennies in the jar' GMP Chadderton asked their followers to guess 'how many cannabis plants in the Ford Fiesta police car'.

Inquiries have been made in order to establish the perpetrator and also why the plants were left by the side of the road.putting them in the middle of the road is dangerous
A Greater Manchester Police spokesman said: ‘We are trying to establish the reason why the cannabis plants were left there and where they came from.’landlord was making a visit or mum said ...get them outer here......
The haul was found at 9.30am yesterday.
Local police have yet to make any arrests in connection with the plants.

Might be worth 15,000 pounds after they produce buds. I see a bunch of dumped clones with no buds.

Oh, that's right, the coppers use total plant weight to give the street value they need for big headlines.

They probably weigh the dirt also

Sounds like some kind of domestic. Someone has suddenly become an ex and maybe would blow the whistle out of spite.... still might.

I think they cut the plant off at dirt level. They don't bring the scales to the source. They also cannot be bothered with hard work.

The buckets themselves are worth more than that pile of mystery hemp.

They do kinda look like autopots with the holes in the bottom... If so, you are probably correct.

Even if they were Walmart specials. For all anyone knows they are all males or some hemp ditch weed. For sure there is no realistically viable potency or legitimate street value without flowering.

Kinda interesting how it's automatically assumed they are all females, and of legitimate potency even when there is no way of knowing without growing them out.

One would think it would have to be proven the plants are female, and of potency, to classify as a narcotic substance.
