Coincidence or conscious sowing? In Saxony-Anhalt, cannabis plants have so far grown unnoticed. Now they have been removed.
Apparently after sowing grass seeds, cannabis plants initially grew unnoticed on a playground in the Altmark in Saxony-Anhalt. They were already more than 30 centimeters tall, the police said today. A witness drew the police’s attention to the plants on Friday.
The “plants suspected of being narcotics” were found and removed on around 40 square meters of the playground in Zehrental in the Stendal district, it said. Negative effects in connection with children on the playground are currently not known, it said. The lawn seeds had been sown a few weeks ago.
