Thought this was kinda funny, especially since it occurs twice. Should it not say "potted plants"? (I could just see asking for a "Pot Plant" at the local nursery or Greenhouse. Pray no police officer is nearby)) Just thought it was a funny typo for a "farmhouse." Be careful with this one. lol.
Predatron? Nevermind.......

Very, very funny. I think it's great when this happens. Oh dear.
Right?
We use the experession Pot Plants quite regularly in the UK.
Really? I initially thought that possible. I haven't heard that around the US but it could be possible in certain locales.
"Mam, pardon me, could you tell me which aisle the pot plants are in?" lol
Yea.. pot plants are a thing :)
Also perfectly normal in Australasia.
I've never called a pot plant a potted plant. 'Potted' is for pool balls and snooker balls. And also for meat, if you're daft enough as a kid to tactfully say 'That was nice, dad', without realising you've just guaranteed the appearance of the stuff on your plate every Saturday for ninety shades of forever :)
yup in Belgium too pot plant ;-)
Yeah, I caught that too. But I figured it just might be a local idiom or phrase. I would have used "potted plants" Then again, even that could be misinterpreted by someone thinking that the house was infested with drunk spys lurking in the attic.
Our area must be different, I have never heard that before. I know people will ask for a plant(s), or a pot, or a planter, and a potted plant. I expected to find a regular plant in a pot if I googled it but instead just articles and pictures of pot plants (e.g., a controlled substance so to speak).
Oh well. Nice model, in the cart it goes.

Would get a really weird look here in Adelaide if you said potted plant.
We do say potted plants where I live. We also say pot plant. So go figure.
The textures of the farmhouse set are far too.... Busy for me. It strains my eyes looking at it.
ROFL. Yeah that could be uncomfortable.
So if "pot plants" is the norm outside of the U.S., what do you call marijuana plants?
then again, a stoner farmhuse would be a unique item in he store, LOL "duuuuude, you gonna get the eggs out of the henhouse, I got the munchies!"
(Cough, cough)...
What were we talking about?
Greetings,
Yep, it'd be perfectly normal and legal for someone to ask for a pot plant here in Washington state.
Oh, wait, you want a plant in a pot? Yeah, that's not how we say that here... ;)

In South Africa we also say pot plants- potted plants sounds odd to me.
We call it Dagga.
We call them Cannabis Plants in the UK.
So I guess the slang term "pot" is more of a U.S. thing then, go figure. I am so used to if something is in a pot, then it is potted.
Pot is just a slag term that is used.
I have heard it called marijuana, maryanne, weed, pot, dope, s**t or grass, among others :)
It's called pot here sometimes too, but it's mostly called weed, at least in my area of the UK.
"Slag" or "Slang"? I get a totally different meaning from the phrase "slag term".
A cash crop.
Weed, grass, wacky baccy in the area where I grew up (close to London)
And Mŵg drŵg (pronounced moog droog) meaning literally bad smoke here in Wales.
I think Frank meant to type Slang.
I noticed that too and was actually hoping for a 3D marijuana plant. I think it would be very useful for future art, especially after it becomes legal here in California on January 1. I hope a PA really does create a "pot" plant LOL.
Yeah, we say "potted plant" where I live and saying "pot plan" would definitely get you some side-eye.
I hear buds mostly from my friends
