    Default They took my plants

    Hi This is my first post here
    I live in Spain and had a visit from the police in July and they made me chop my two plants down.
    They had just started to flower there was some debate as to whether they were male or female. However, their evidence shows a bag of well manicured buds weighing 800 odd grams with laboratory results showing THC and CBD content.
    The police took a photo of the plant but have not included it in their evidence ( which would confirm my plant didn't have any buds on it).
    I have a photo of the plant taken 9 days before dated and timed on my phone. Posted on here.
    I have been charged with growing to sell which again is not true.
    I am wondering does anyone know at what stage of the plants growth would it produce any THC or CBD that could be picked up in any laboratory test.
    I am trying to prepare my evidence of a not guilty plea.
    would you be able to see from the photos that this plant would not of been able to produce mature buds 9 days after it was taken
    Any advice would be appreciated.Click image for larger version.

    They probably weighed the entire plant wet and counted that as all sellable weed. You don't have to have much in the way of THC in order to be illegal I don't know what the limits are in Spain but most countries even hemp is difficult to grow and stay under the limit.

    If you can afford a good attorney that's used to dealing with cannabis offenses I would think you could easily get it reduced from trying to sell. Unless of course you had a bunch of scales and individual baggies and stuff like that laying around, most cash croppers will grow in a different style than what you're using and they'll grow more plants.

    Very nice looking plant, it's too bad you weren't able to finish it.

    I'd get an attorney, if nothing else you ought to be able to get it reduced to something you can tolerate. Do you have any medically supported conditions where you can claim the medical use? That might be the angle I would be taking if I could.

    The Guardia civil can do what they pretty much want in Spain and get away with it. They are corrupt as feck and so are the magistrates. Years ago you could bung the mayor a few pesetas to make it go away....Good luck pal, fecking nice plant that too...

    They have THC from the first time you see leaves. Even the starter leaves.

    They have 800g of manicured buds and lab reports of the flowers? But you say you are personal? Something not adding up here at all sorry.

    Hence Police, in a decriminalised country, are going after you.

    Thats exactly what im saying, do you think the photo of the plant could produce mature buds 9 days later?
    The prosecutions evidence is a big bag of buds that I know didnt come from my plant its was in july and had only recently shown its sex.
    A neighbour 4 doors up complained about the smell, it wasnt my plant it was the boys in an apartment near me but thats life I guess.
    When the cops called I let them in up up on the roof.
    Someone decided I was growing to sell I guess after I told them i dont smoke the stuff (true) and was going to make a coconut cannabis balm for the arthritis in my knees.
    They clearly dont believe me, as you rightly say for personal use it is decriminalized for growing to sell it isnt.
    I have never been in trouble with the police before.

    Not for us to speculate.

    As advised get a lawyer and ask for disclosure.

    What difference does it make what stage the plants are in? Its cannabis, its illegal. Perhaps they think you think you are smart by saying technically its not this or that.

    Does that explain why they have a lab report on your bud proving it is the real deal because you claim its something else?

    Like Bud says, you probably havent met this month's payroll.....
