Robert Kane is the web editor of Sensible Seeds. Based in the UK, the company sells cheap marijuana seeds and informational books on marijuana to customers all over the world.
It’s no secret that many countries ban the sale of cannabis. It’s slightly less known that in many of these countries the actual cannabis seeds are legally allowed to be bought and sold. We whole-heartedly support these measures and only recommend our cannabis seeds are used for novelty purposes, as you can imagine but often we get asked exactly what people should use them for. Well, here’s what we do with our spare cannabis seeds – hopefully it’ll inspire you!
1. One for the Mantle Piece
Impress your friends with your fine collection of rare cannabis seeds by putting them on display. I personally have a collection of 127 marijuana seeds, each one lovingly laid out on its own plush red cushion in a glass display case. Not only do they show you to be the expert collector you are, but they make great conversation starters.
2. An Expensive Form of Birdseed
If you’re in a country where the purchasing of cannabis seeds is legal, then there’s no reason not to feed them to your birds. Hemp is a common component of seed mixes for birds, and many report that our feathered friends will eat the cannabis seeds first. It’s no surprise when you consider how full of nutrients the humble marijuana seed is – each one is packed with magnesium-rich chlorophyll and protein, making it a nutritious and easy to digest treat. In 1937 when the bird seed companies testified before congress regarding the legalities of marijuana seeds, they are reported to have stated that “canaries won’t sing without it”.
3. Make Your Own Rainstick
A rainstick is a long hollow tube filled with beads of beans. When the stick is held up, all the filling fall down, and creates a sound like heavy rain falling. If you have enough cannabis seeds lying around, why not try your hand at constructing your own? Wholesome fun which is resolutely not illegal!
4. Make a Rattle for an Infant
If that doesn’t work (which it won’t), consider scaling down your aims and constructing a rattle. Simply drop a handful of cannabis seeds into an empty matchbox, securely fasten it shut and attach a pencil for a rattle on a budget.
5. Bring the Spirit of Summer with Miniature Boulles
Missing boulles on the lawn and the spirit of summer? Why not recreate the fun of boulles with your cannabis seeds. Paint each seed the colour you want, and then recreate the skilled sport of the elderly in your own living room.
6. Thrifty Christmas Presents
Economically speaking, times are hard and getting the money together for Christmas presents can be tricky. Although not the cheapest seeds, a bag of marijuana will still provide one seed each for all your family and friends – and when they see all of the novel, fun and, best of all, legal things they can do with their gift, they’re sure to offer you their sincere and whole-hearted thanks.
7. Leave a Trail to Find your Way Around
Hansel and Gretel had the right idea – they left a trail of breadcrumbs in the woods to find their way out. Of course it backfires on them when the breadcrumbs are eaten - which is why using cannabis seeds to find your way works best indoors. You should also make sure only to use them on white surfaces so they really show up clearly. Still, if you’re ever lost in a white floored palace, then you could use your cannabis seeds for navigation… I suppose.
8. Make Some Fine Cannabis Seed Art
Many of those who claim cannabis should be grown illegally point to the fine art that has been created by those using the ‘high’ of the finished drug. But kids, you don’t need to be high to make great art – try using the seeds themselves! You can paint the seeds and make them into a mosaic or a mural!
9. Make Yourself a Comfy Beanbag
Beanbags typically have thousands of polystyrene balls inside, but why not put your cannabis seeds to good use and fill a beanbag with them? Sure, it will cost a few thousand pounds more than buying polystyrene balls, but a beanbag full of cannabis seeds (probably) feels a lot more comfortable and you’ll have the satisfaction of knowing yours is indefinably better.
10. Guess the Number of Marijuana Seeds in the Jar
A great way of recouping some of your losses on the marijuana seed beanbag is to put your remaining seeds in a jar, and have a competition amongst your friends over who can guess the correct number. If you put the price to play high enough, you could even make a profit on your comfy, comfy beanbag.
So use your cannabis seeds for any of these purposes, but make sure you don’t grow them under any circumstances! It can only end in tears.
