Here is something else Dan moved over today and he said it smelled a bit like menthol, like Eucalyptus. It may be a weed, but in case it is something cool, I thought I would post it.

The leaves are a gery/green, long and growing in 3's on a stem. I am thinking it may be some kind of spice?

hmmmmm interesting response there Cindy. What are you thinking it could be?
Posted By: afgreyparrot Re: What could this be? - August 1st, 2005 at 10:30 PM
Hard to really tell from that photo...but it looks like it could be hemp.
We have a lot of it growing wild around here, left over from years ago when it was legal to grow for rope and stuff.

Well I dunno if that is good or bad. I will take a pic of it outside today. But is is very low to the ground. Not what I expected it to be for sure. Will get you a better pic.

I am so glad Cindy said something...I was kinda scared to say it might be hemp. Now that I see the other pics...I think it's something else.

Looks familiar though?????? I'm pretty sure it's a flower and not a weed. Gotta check the books.

I really hope it is a nice flower. Especially since I have so much of it. The one pic of lots of plants is only about 2 feet of space and it is all over about 50+ feet.

And so what if it was hemp (the troublemaker has to ask)? I mean, would you get fined if ya don't <ehm> weed it out? Seriously, inquiring minds want to know! wink
Posted By: Triss Re: What could this be? - August 2nd, 2005 at 10:17 PM
I would have just kept mowing it, after sending some to Cindy of course. dev But if it is a flower, then I will be doing some transplanting.

Darn and just when I thought I could use my Hibiscus as a cover crop too. laugh Already was spacing out my pots to make room oh well laugh .

I have a little weed that comes round in our so-called grass - that's what it looks like - grass - the wacky tabaccy kind.

Wouldn't doubt somebody threw it in there.

I actually like it and have moved it around a bit - I can never find it when I want to show it to somebody but it does eventually come back in the soil.

I've forgotten what marijuana really looks like when you start a pot of it - I had one once - the kids fed it a half glass of milk and that was the end of it.
