    Plantage

    Correct?

    Plantation

    Examples/ definitions with source references
    Nur im Sinne von Cannabis anbauen.
    Der X betreibt eine Cannabis Plantage.
    Is this: X owns a cannabis plantation?
    Comment
    LEO gives planatation for Plantage.

    This is obviously correct in the normal sense of fruit, etc.
    As this example is about illegal drugs (translation of a script rather than personal interest), and I am not an expert in this area, can someone confirm that plantation is also used for growing cannabis plants. They are being grown in large halls rather than fields!

    Thanks for any help.

    Hey coburn, I don't mind you joking about your suppliers, but I do mind you joking about the answer. Do you know if it's called a plantation or was that just ha ha hee hee?

    i was joking about the supplier part. It is really called a marijuana plantation..if it is not quite a plantation it is called a patch of m. plants.

    At least in the UK, 'plantation' would seem to cover an area planted within a barn, cellar or even rooms in a house:

    I'm soooo glad you weren't kidding coburn, and thanks for the confirmation bluejay. It was the last thing I had to double-check before sending off the job, and after coburn's first post I sent it off. I was 90 per cent certain myself that plantation was OK. That's why I was less than ecstatic about a joke...

    But BC standing for Best Cannabis was my attempt at a joke, ha ha.
