very oily, smells pungent, like a cross between marijuana and catnip. nobody i ask seems to have any idea, thought it looked like a member of the amaranthus family... full of tiny black seeds, seedpods round
thats redroot pigweed growing up THROUGH the plant im looking to have id'd. i want the festooned dreadlock-looking stinky plant at the base id'd. two distinct plants. Ive looked very hard to find evidance that pigweed occurs like this, and there simply is no presidence that i can find. and i know what cannabis smells like for a variety of reasons. the most non-incriminating reason being that there was a hempfield (featured in Trailor Park Boys) a few blocks up from my house in Nova Scotia when i lived there. but i already knew what it smelled like long before that. if you want to know what it smells like, i can recommend a few cafes, parks, shops, festivals, around vancouver where you can encounter the smell withought fear of being criminally responsable for any sort of possesion or intent. I wonder why you would want to know how I know? I think you'ed have to live a pretty darn sheltered life NOT to. :) pigweed doesnt really have much of an odor. this stuff was downright skunky
here, i found a specimine i saved since september. notice how, although dried completely, it retains all its color. probably has something to do with all the oils also notice the round flower and seedpods that differ from pigweed
With a smell like you describe and masses of tiny greenish flowers, I would be thinking of a Chenopodium, maybe C. ambrosioides.
sounds pretty darn close if not spot on. i knew it had to be a significant medicinal with all the oil and odor, there had to be something going on there. worm medicine eh? cool
