Stealth Pot
Use Crossbreeding or Genetic Engineering to make Stealth Pot Plants | |
Make plants that produce THC (active ingredient in marijuana) but look like tomato plants, corn whatever.

Interesting. Genetic engineering that hippies would support but that I would oppose. |
|
| |
Smoking tomato?
Getting high on potato?
Doesn't quite have a ring to it. |

Some nutty scientist once claimed that they had done this, or were going to do it, or something like that. I'm not sure what the benign plant in question was, though, and I don't have enough to come up with a link, so I guess it doesn't really exist, huh? |
|

egnor, I've heard something along those lines, but I thought the plant up for modification was orange trees. We can't both have imagined it, can we? |
|
| |
I also vaguely remember the article about the "wacky farmer" genetically engineering orange trees to produce fruit with THC; however, I'm pretty sure it was a hoax. (It blathered about gene splicing in a way which sounded plausible but didn't make any sense.) |
|
| |
Certainly a lot of people were taken in, though. |
|
| |
Three days, and nobody has mentioned the phrase "baked potatoes?" |
|
| |
Fried potatoes anyone? If there is someone working on this, hurry up already. |
|
| |
Now, if the idea were a virus to wipe the plant out, then maybe you'd have my vote. |
|

[Almafeta] why on earth would you want that? you bad bad person. |
