my guess would be, it is part of the stuff you need to grow

pots, soil, lights, seeds, etc.

the gear you need to grow :slight_smile:

I figured it was probably a way to avoid talking about seeds, from a time when it was much more risky to send seeds back and forth. Kinda code word style.

You aren’t alone with wondering. I figured both answers you’re getting here… simply put stuff you need for your op and on the other hand the fuzz you know like @cannabissequoia said

By fuzz do you mean the traitors in blue that generate revenue for the state by extorting citizens for victimless crimes? Asking for a friend
