Old Country Farmhouse - Someones been smoking the gange? lol

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....... cheeky

    Really? I initially thought that possible. I haven't heard that around the US but it could be possible in certain locales.

    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 :)

    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. surprise

    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). surprise

    Oh well. Nice model, in the cart it goes.

  • Would get a really weird look here in Adelaide if you said potted plant.

  • Serene NightSerene Night Posts: 17,602

    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.

    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!"

    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. indecision

  • frank0314frank0314 Posts: 13,918

    Pot is just a slag term that is used.

  • FishtalesFishtales Posts: 6,104

    I have heard it called marijuana, maryanne, weed, pot, dope, s**t or grass, among others :)

  • BlueIreneBlueIrene Posts: 1,318

    It's called pot here sometimes too, but it's mostly called weed, at least in my area of the UK.

    "Slag" or "Slang"? surprise I get a totally different meaning from the phrase "slag term". devil

    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.

  • 3Diva3Diva Posts: 11,303

    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
