High AGG,

Nature is unpredictable!

I just had a visit from the neighbourhood policeman and 2 colleagues.
He introduced a new neighbourhood policeman named Olaf.
Together with a female colleague they asked me if they could come in and check the "legal" situation at my terrace.
There are 4 plants at my neighbour's terrace and 3 on mine.
I told them that I hope to end up with 4 or 5 females.
They just took a look, said it was fine and went....
Poor guys, just do what they are told to.
The most of the Dutch police men are in favour of legalization, or at least regulation.
Cops and robbers, they can't live without each other.
This pictures is just taken a couple of minutes ago, just after the police left.

Peace, G.A.

GReendreAM I do (still) apreciate this place, the city, the country I live in.
But the last years the Netherlands run too much after the U.S.A. politics and repression takes over more and more the tolerant attitude the Netherlands is (was) known for.
The national news anounced that Amsterdam has to follow up the 500 meter rule (distance highschool/coffeeshop.).
For Amsterdam that means that 90% of the coffeeshops have to close down.!! weird man.
But how Amsterdam thinks to serve all the locals and tourists with only 25 coffeeshops?
I picture already line up's of people in front of the coffeeshops in Amsterdam waiting to score their little bit of stash for the day.
The Hague became the example city for the national tolerence policy. Remember it's not legal in the Netherlands, it's tolerated. 20 yeats ago you still could grow uptill 49 plants for own use. Now it's 5 plants per household.
At the moment if you are cought with 1 kilo of dried weed, you are out of the police office in a couple of hours, but if you are caught with clones you have to stay at the police office for 3 days!
Rough times for cops and robbers and the prices rising in the coffeeshop!
The customers at the end have to pay the price for it.
30 years of tolerance policy and it looks like we didn't learn anything.

FREE THE PLANT!

Esben, Farmer John :wave:


Here some pics of the repotted Afghan.

Take care and stay safe peeps....

Peace, G.A.

So Darpan,

First I'm very glad they just left
Second I am sorry my government is such bakvaas :badday:
third.... do you think they just check up on you now, or does someone have to complain first??? It seems ludicrous to send three people out to check your plants....

mrs m :D

Hi G.A. This thread grows faster than your plants. :yoinks:
It's great that you can put some plants in your neighbour terrace
and balance your number of females that way and stay legal.

some malawi buds.....stay cool :joint:

Hello all,



Thanks for sharing Esben eand Medjool... Kayaman love that smile on (your) face.
The reason was not in the first place the plants, but introducing the new neighbourhood police man called Olaf. After that he asked me if they could come in for a short look at my plants at the terrace.
I didn't like it, because still they are coming in my privat space uninvited.
The neighbourhood police man told also that he saw a "black" guy coming out of my house last week and saw that he left the door open.
Hopefully he closed that door when he saw that, but still. I don't feel hunted, but more like: Ït's ok what you do, but we'll keep on watching you.
It's a pitty of their time and money. They should go after the criminals...
I have nothing to hide so I let them in if they want to.
After a couple of minutes they left again and said friendly goodbye.
My friend Jeff is on air right now at juice FM. www.juize.fm
I am gonna ask for a request online for my friend Marcelino who did my hair this morning to celebrate my birthday in Rotterdam tomorrow.

The plants are doing great. I started out from seed at the 19th of March at new moon with 2 Afghans, 2 Purple Princesses, 2 Green Ambassadors and 2 Purperea Erdber.
Both strains of the Canna Embassy (G.A. and Purple Princess) came out female.
One of the 2 Afghan was male and I repotted the female Afghan in the big bucket.
The big buckets are 65 liters and the wooden box contains 200 lirters.
The female Green Ambassador in the wooden box I started to "train" a little.
So now it's waiting for the last two Purpera Erdber to show sex.
I hope that at least one of them is also male, bacause I like to pollinate the other three strains with the Purperea Erdber.
So the total score is not bad at all. Till now only one male out of the 8.
So I just have to pollinate one of the Green Ambassador and one of the Purple Princess to safe some seeds for the next generations.
By the way, I am very curious how many will be realy purple.
Silently waiting.

(purple) Peace.

Jeje.....it's not my smile....the buds are on top of a Bob Marley magazine it's his.
Original haircut you got :cool:

Does any G.A. plant comes up with purlpe buds like the purple peace and princess???
 
Yeah have a great time in Rotterdam tomo Darpan! Happy birthday!

Are those Purpurea x Erdbeers Basic Seeds' ? I've got them too but I was hesitant to plant them because I collected some pretty sativas that I'm just too curious about. I'm very interested in what yours will do nevertheless, and I'm pretty sure I'll save them for next year. But, just as you are, I'm a little concerned with the cops in my crowded neighbourhood so I'm doing my best to keep low profile and limit the number of plants I grow. Aaah choices choices... Good luck with yours! :bandit:

Hello all,


A nice day it is, sunny and 23 degrees. Ideal temp for the plants.
I don't feel like having birthday at all. It feels like every other day, except for the fact that I just got a alarming mail from my neighbour.
The police came to his door after they visited me and asked him if that were his plants.
So he wrote me a mail that he was angry that I told the police that it were his plants and he wanted me to remove them directly.
I wrote the next answer to the police and cc to my neighbour:
I just got an alarming mail from my neighbour.
I didn't told the police that it were his plants, but that I asked him permission to put 4 plants at his terrace, because of the 5 plants per house hold rule.
"I don't want to provoke the police neither I want my neighbour to feel embarrassed.
So I will directly remove the plants from my neighbour his terrace and keep myself to the 5 plants limit at my terrace".


But now the practicle problem.
Which one to remove?
A lot of people offcourse offer to take over 2 plants. Where are we talking about????

Here the 5 plants at the terrace this moment.
The problem is resolved. I gave two of my plants as a birthday present to another neighbour. He likes to take care of 2 plants...
It looks like plants are criminals.... crazy world.
Take care, keep on growing (your own) and stay safe wherever you are folks...


Peace, G.A.

Kayaman, I forgot to answer your question.
I answered it in my head already a couple of times....,lol
The Green Ambassador is actualy a cross between Skunk11/Early Girl and Purple Peace.
The purple ones I called Purple Ambassador and the one that came out green Green Ambassador. Till now 80% came out purple and 20% green.
The Purple Princess is a cross between NLX/Powerplant and Purple Peace.
I don't know yet how many % come out purple or green, because it's one of the latest strains of the Canna Embassy.
The Afghan and Purpurea Erdber are the latest and newest strains at the
Canna Embassy.
All are pollinated last season with Snow White.
This year I am planning to crossbreed the plants with the Purpurea Erdber.
I am off to Rotterdam now to celebrate:
