My neighbors thought I was growing pot

lol in my front yard, and no one had a problem, except surprisingly the only 2 other people under 40 around here.
Ive got some swamp hibiscuses, which look very similar to pot plants. They are rite next to my walkway in the front. They just flowered (big red flowers)
I was talking to my neighbor and he told me that everyone was wondering why I would grow pot in such an obvious place, till they saw the flowers and realized they weren't pot. Apparently the 2 young people that just moved across the street wanted to call the cops but he told em not to lol.



Makes me wonder though, could I get away with blending some pot in with a bunch of swamp hibiscuses? In my backyard of course...
Anyone ever try disguising their plants? Anyone notice?

 

lollercopters

 

First you should go out to your front yard when you see the young neighbors out in their yard - you should bring a baggie, and tear off some leaves of your swamp hibiscus and stuff them in the baggie, then go back inside, then come back out front smoking a cigarette with the ends twisted. They're sure to call the cops, who will investigate and find nothing wrong, and then you can pretty much do what you want.

 

Tell them if they weren't so fucking nosy then they wouldnt look like stupid prude assholes right now.

 

Grow some real pot(after doing what Zengizmo said and the heat dies down) and get some silk hibiscus flowers and tie them on the real stuff.

 

I have 10/-2 Delospermas and morning glorys, we dont have any weed plants outside here cause this not my country house..

 

using plants that look like pot to hide pot plants... not a good idea

 

lol that would be great. I could just see the cops here getting all pissed and tearing up my house and busting me for some resin in a pipe, or a seed stuck in the carpet or something though.

 

yea...but I was thinking if everyone is already used to seeing pot like plants but knows they arnt pot it would just blend in.

Though the best bet would just be keep em inside...

 

lmao at this whole thread

 

Egg those suspicious neighbors. Egging is so immature and childish and so much fun .

 

haha I dont need anymore encouragement to mess with them, Ive been trying to be good.
They dont seem to like us, well the wife doesn't seem to like me. She always gives me dirty looks and the husband isnt allowed to wave to me or anything. I always wave at them, or scream out hello and she wont answer lol.

My iPod seems to want to mess with them though. Im working in the garage with music blasting. As soon as they came out to do yard work Marijuana by Country Joe from Woodstock came on, then Casey Jones, then White rabbit, then the LSD song, then legalize it, then dont step on the grass all in a row. They kept giving me these weird looks hah

 

who lived there first? you or them? if it was you then do everything in your power (and within the confines of the law) to make them hate you. put an old toilet in your yard and grow flowers in it. That will piss all your neighbors off lol.

 

ohhh...one of those people who thinks every one wants to listen your "music" blaring out of the garage...no wonder they give you dirty looks

lol...and you "wave and scream at them" ..in my neighborhood that makes you the local moron

 

Yeah man everyone should keep to themselves, and not interact or anything.

 

no...but everyone should show respect for others if they expect others to respect them.

 

Although your neighbours were being dinks about your plants, if you want them to keep their noses out of your business, blaring stoner music (or any music in general) isn't going to help. It makes things look worse and just draws more attention to yourself.

 

I think I would gift them clippings or a plant and print out about them. Just say they are really nice and easy to grow and you thought that maybe they would also enjoy them .

It assures them that all is above board and shows that you have no hard feelings about any of it.

It is always best to get along with neighbours.

 

...and now that the neighborhood knows what kind of flowers they are you could probably sneak a few of the good ones in there and no one would notice
