TAMPA, Fla. (AP) - The Florida Highway Patrol says anyone missing two big bags of pot can call their Tampa area office.
A crew picking up litter from along Interstate 4 near Tuesday morning made an unusual find: two big plastic garbage bags stuffed with freshly harvested marijuana.
FHP Trooper Larry Coggins says the 60 pounds of pot might be worth around $54,000 on the street. It probably fell off or was thrown from a car on the interstate.
The plants appeared freshly picked and some had intact roots.
Coggins says it's not the largest amount of pot ever dumped along a roadside, but it's certainly not a common find.

Looks like some crappy "rag-weed to me .They can keep that crapp..[xx(]
Sounds like the words of a true connoisseur [:D] j/k
If you lived in a semi suburban area with some timber on the backside and you had a ditch-weed epidemic and are in the habit of putting your leaves out on the corner with the garbage, would you deposit a bunch of ditch weed there as well only to raise suspicions and go through a bunch of hassle over it? Probably not--especially if you are ignorant on the subject.
XXXXXX
That stuff grows wild out in the pastures around here, The doves realy love it[:D]
I can't even imagine how hard they are to hit when they don't fly in a straight line.

LOL, Thats no joke man, Those doves seriously wobble alot after eating that weed. Thats why you have to shoot them when they are coming into the feilds and not when they are leaving[;)][:D]
Think they'll let me have it if I go and get it?
Darn. That's where it blew out of the back of the truck.
Think they'll let me have it if I go and get it?
OH YEAH... They'll "LET U HAVE IT" alright![:D]
somebody found it growing in their yard, got paranoid about the cops busting them for "pot" (rightfully so, since an overzealous idiot DA would probably claim it was the finest "maui wowie" and not ditchweed)
and dumped the plants after erradicating them.
