You old stoners remember seeing one of these?

Check out my newest item in my collection.
The Pot Seed Pen. I got it on eBay.
It was listed as around 40 years old. I can't find anything about.
I saw a picture of a newer one on Google, but now I can't even find that.
I found one article about a high school girl getting suspended for having the pen in class.
The article said the police said that "sterilized" or something was printed on the pen. Also that it was made in China. My pen does not say that, but the box says made in USA.

It would be cool to find out who made these, and what kind of seeds they are.

Are these truly 40 year old marijuana seeds or is just sterilized hemp seed?
Only one way to find out!!!!!

Mine does not say they have been sterilized.

I've seen quite a bit of pot paraphernalia in my days but I've never seen this pot seed pen. Kinda cool.

Very nice, (I never seen that too) but not as much as a weed pen!

Pop them babies.

I have a hard time believing thats 40 years old. I'd expect to see some degradation of the plastic or the seeds unless it was stored extremely well. I'd try to pop a couple.

I'm with ya. Maybe clouding of the plastic.

But I will say, that if this pen was made today, there absolutely no way it would be this heavy.
Everything today is so light to save on production costs and shipping costs.
For a plastic writing pen, this is heavy duty.

looks like glass.

I have a Chinese acquaintance who says Chinese people are very against cannabis. Hemp is different. If it's from China, I'd put my money on Hemp. I'd still pop them though. Like chong once said "you never know right". Lol

First you say Chinese people are very against cannabis, then you quote one of the most famous Chinese stoners ever. I hope that was on purpose. Either way, it made me laugh. :woohoo:

Lol. Isn't Tommy Chong Hawaiian?

From his wiki:
"Thomas B. Kin Chong[2][3] was born on May 24, 1938, in Edmonton, Alberta. His mother was of Scotch-Irish Canadian ancestry,[4] and his father was a Chinese Canadian who immigrated in the 1930s."

The name "Chong" was a hint.

That and the t shirt that had a little clear plastic pouch with "emergency" beer in it were all the rage of edgy grade/middle school kids.

HGCC · Jul 18, 2020

I want to say the pens were souvenirs kids would get while on vacation at weird little stands, they were not part of the school supply aisle.

Those may be the plainest, most boring looking seeds I have seen. No markings at all. Probably some boring ass hemp too.
