SUPER-strength cannabis seeds and the equipment to grow them are being OPENLY sold on the web— despite the fact it is ILLEGAL to grow the drug in Britain.
There are NO plans to close the legal loophole even though the “skunk” is linked to severe mental illness and even murders.
In the UK it is forbidden to grow cannabis but NOT to sell the seeds.
At least two dozen UK-based firms offer skunk seeds, getting around the law by describing them as “novelties” or “adult souvenirs”.
But alongside the seeds—costing between £28 and £50 for ten—they also sell all the paraphernalia needed to cultivate the plants, which are three times stronger than normal cannabis.
Gangs
These include LED lights for £35, sodium heating lamps for £70, special fertilizer for £12 and watering devices for £50. And the companies give advice on how to cultivate the plants.
One firm says a type of skunk is “a must for commercial growers because of its high yield”. Another states: “This strain is ideal for the inexperienced grower.”
Buyers range from ordinary people growing a few plants for their own use to criminal gangs making MILLIONS of pounds a year.
Last year police in LONDON identified 700 illegal cannabis factories in the capital. And just last week cops busted factories in LEEDS, NORTHAMPTON, WHITTLESEY, Cambs, TELFORD, Shropshire, and MARGATE, Kent.
But the Home Office said: “There are currently no plans for legislation to outlaw the sale of seeds.”
Anti-drug campaigner Debra Bell of Talking About Cannabis said: “Everyone knows how damaging skunk can be to the human mind and of the terrible crimes that have been committed by people high on the drug.
“These companies are profiting out of people’s misery.”
And Tory MP David Davies added: “I can’t see why the Government can’t make a law to ban this trade.”
Another great article from the UK media, this time from that bastion of all that is true, The News of The World. For the non-British people here, this paper is the epitome of tabloid journalism. For the Brits here, enough said.
The thing I found amusing, after all the NOTW's rantings, were the readers comments at the end of the article.

Ash, it is evident that Greenleaf is as thick as a Palin, however, to say that America as a nation, and ergo all Americans are thick is a bit harsh in my opinion. Lets not go down to the pathetic xenophobic levels that the numpty that is Greenleaf has gone down to.Ash333 wrote:If John Mccail makes president, after the septics elected bush, then its offical, they are, as a nation THICK

Yes Brits are clearly stupid, because here in Britain, or as you spell it Brittain, we're so stupid its near on impossible for us to show any basic knowledge of grammatical devices when posting on a forum.greenleaf420 wrote:hahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha i always love hearing about brittain shitty lethal bud hahahahahahahahahahahahah that shit sucks compared to amsterdam and cali exspecially cali hahahahahahaha that is the funniest shit ive ever heard in my life the UK IS A JOKE you hear A FUCKIN JOKE WEN IT COMES TO HIGH STRENGTH MARY hahahahahahahahahahahahaha im sorry im being so ignorant but hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahhaa this shit makes me cry laughing hahahahahahahahahah dumb brits and there mary propaganda
Also you seem to think that weed is weaker in england? I dont quite know how that can be, when exactly the same seeds are available here with the exact same lighting available in amsterdam and USA. In fact seeds are easier to get over here atm than in the USA. The same knowledge on how to grow is available as well. So whats to stop us growing exactly?
Its got to be are dumb British propaganda. God i wish i lived in the states where there would never be such blatant anti weed propaganda, like the reefer madness campaign by the American government.
GreenLeaf you Sir are a complete twat who says totally un-justified and moronic statements without having a clue on what you are saying what so ever. The reason people dont like americans is because of people like you, your arrogance and willingness to chip in even in subjects you have fuck all knowledge about piss's people off. Which gives a bad name to Yanks all over the show, even though most americans are stand up guys.
I dont know if you ever smoked weed in Britain, but if you ever make it into this country and dont get your skull kicked in for being a twat long enough to look me up, i will sort you out with the phattest, stinkiest bag of weed, and we'll see how well you do with that.
Also do you not think are proximity to Holland ( which GreenLeaf is where amsterdam is.) Means we get some kick ass import that is just as good if not better than the coffeeshop gear? But you probably didnt consider this as all you learnt in Geography was how to point out Florida on a map. Psst ill give you a hint its in the bottom right hand corner.
