When I lived in Chattanooga it was kind of accepted that if you grew okra, you'd have the cops come by and ask to look around your garden occasionally. Never turned into a raid... Washington Post: Heavily armed drug cops raid retiree’s garden, seize okra plants: Georgia police declare war on okra.
The Cannabis Eradication programs have historically inflated the size of their hauls by including non-psychoactive "ditchweed" in their totals of plants seized. In past years, ditchweed accounted for up to 98 percent of seized outdoor plant totals. According to the ONDCP, ditchweed still makes up an unspecified percent of outdoor plants seized.
