Company makes any plant produce THC and the tomatoes are especially yummy June 1, 2009
Oakdale, CA: Scientists at Montsaint Genie Tech Inc. announced today that they have successfully transferred the gene segment that produces the psychotropic chemical THC in cannabis plants to many other common garden plants, including tomatoes, cucumbers, lettuce, carrots, and more.
“We probably can put the THC segment into almost any plant in existence,” says lead scientist Rebeca Vale. “It’s a very simple process. We are starting work on oak and maple trees now.”
Asked if the resulting plants could be used in ways similar to cannabis, Vale replied, “Well, you can’t make twine out of a tomato plant, but if someone were to dry it and smoke it, all of the medicinal and psychotropic effects of marijuana would be present. And what’s more, we have learned that tomatoes, in particular, actually produce more THC than cannabis itself.”
But is it legal? “Actually, yes,” says Vale. “Our research qualifies as GMO ‘intellectual property’, as does the process itself. Since tomatoes and other plants are not illegal, a person would be well within the law to grow them and use them as they please.”
Vale says that her company is working on a spray that will transfer the segment to many plants simply by spraying the leaves of seedlings.
“It’s a very simple process,” she says. “Anyone can do it. We plan to start selling the spray - ‘Genie Mist’ - in a matter of weeks. One bottle will sell for five dollars and be capable of treating 6,000 seedlings.”
But how do the tomatoes taste? “Scrumptious,” Vale says. “But, of course, they are best when roasted."

Is this a hoax?
It sounds insane, I'd definately by a bottle of that spray! Everyone could grow THC into any plant!

It sounds real.
Except the part about the spray, thats bullsh*t.
Gene splitting and dna transfers is all oh so real, like putting the fire fly's gene into a tobacco plant to make it light up and you can actually see it during the night.
A friend suggested before if the "fast growth" gene in bamboo was put in a marijuana plant, to make it grow a foot in like 2 hours, mmm...

that would actually be pretty good, i'd give it a month or two for the illegalisation bill to be passed though 
oh and if they have a THC producing gene..they better start getting to work on mescaline etc.. producing veggies haha
