  1. I never taught I’d see the like

    What’s next… someone will be murdered and then where are we?

    Drive-by shootings in the night,It’ll be like boyz in the hood

    Then they’ll have whores selling their wares on the street.

    The pimps will be using weed to keep the whores under control.

    Im going to lock myself in the basement until they catch that fella!!!

  2. This sounds like it’s someone got setup.
    Whoever owned these pissed off someone or cheated on his missus or something.

    Nobody would phone the Garda about random plants would they??

  3. I got a little greenhouse box thing from lidl last year and grew 2 autoflower lemon haze plants in them, germinated indoors and planted out in around early may. Got a couple of ounces of lovely weed, strong too, I couldn’t believe it that you can actually grow it so easily in a greenhouse, had only done it under lights previously.

  4. So they were just growing openly and unassisted by lights, a greenhouse, etc?

    If this is the case, would it be at all realistically possible for us to introduce cannabis as a true “weed”, IE a plant which spreads, grows, and flowers on its own in the wild without any human intervention? And thus populate Irish forests and fields to such an extent that it becomes totally impractical to eradicate it?

    St John’s Wort is an example of this kind of situation, it’s illegal to buy it without a prescription but it not only grows wild, it’s actually an invasive species and apparently a right pain in the hole to get rid of if it starts colonising your flower beds. Could cannabis end up in a similar situation with a concerted enough effort of mass “wild seeding” of the plant?

  5. If you’re not on the main path in Brackloon woods, the place is pretty hard to navigate. Either they weren’t hidden that well, or someone knew where they were and is now ratting.

    Drugs aside, Brackloon woods seems to go around in one big circle and is constantly up a gentle slope. Real mind fuck when you walk it

  6. I’ve done this three times. Absolute middle of fucking nowhere, three plants each time. Went back after 2 months and was pleasantly surprised at the results. Last time the plants were gone though. Some forestry worker had a nice bonus that day lol

  7. We used to plant the seeds we would get in our weed ( 2008 smoking was fucking awful) in and around our village for the laugh, we had one plant growing about 6 foot high in a ditch, was spectacular and it was there for a good session before it’s broke underneath its own wight 😂

  8. This is proof that the Gardaí have far too much free time on their hands and don’t actually give a flying fuck about justice or decency.

    The Garda budget needs to be literally decimated, all they care about is money, their consistently false misleading figures are proof of this.

    The Gardaí are not fit for purpose, we really need an Irish police force.

  9. Shocked! I’m shocked that such a thing would happen in Mayo. Absolutely horrifying.

    Since I’m in Canada, I’m gonna walk down to my local pot store, pick up some edibles for the night. I’ll take the edibles with a small glass of whiskey so I can relax while thinking about how shocking that is.

    😄

  10. Oh my god if the plants are just growing in a forest leave it alone what kind of sad pathetic loser called the Gardi over over honestly surprised there isint a big political push to legalise that stuff
