Thread: Mystery Seeds from China

    Mystery Seeds from China




    So what’s the deal here? These packages with seeds are arriving all over the country.

    “I didn’t order jewelry from China, but that’s what the package said,” Christine Lieber said. “I opened it and there wasn’t anything inside with an invoice or a description inside.”

    Tennesseans warned to not plant unsolicited packages of seeds received in the mail
    The package only contained seeds, with packaging that says “untracked.”

    “It is not a traceable package,” Lieber continued. “You get very nervous and anxious about, well, what is the motive for these seeds?”

    Residents in more than a dozen states recently reported receiving seed packets they did not order that appeared to have been sent by mail from China.

    I haven’t received any. But I’ve seen posts from multiple people in Utah who say they have.

    There's not a single good reason why China would send seeds to the US.

    My money is on Trump tweeting in the next 48 hours that he strong armed China into sending a seed packet vaccine for Corona Virus. Junior will re-tweet it, Twitter will take it down. So forth and so on. Move along.

    Remember the Tamarisk invasion? (which was unintentional).

    Perhaps they're trying another tactic?

    Here is the KSL article. Looks like a bunch of different seeds are being mailed.

    All 50 states have received these mystery packages from an unknown and untraceable source in China.


    So....still think the origins of the Coronavirus are traced back to some poor guy eating bat soup in Wuhan?

    I didn't get seeds. I got a random sweatshirt.

    I was expecting an order, just a bag to stuff things in. But also got another package I didn't order any of it. The sweatshirt, a black jacket, a little boys shirt, and a stack of quilting squares random patterns.

    WTH?!

    That's really bizarre. You should model the sweatshirt for us.

    I don't know why but you just don't strike me as the anime type. Do you like it enough to wear it around town?

    Maybe it's a team of Chinese citizens that are sorry for what their country did to the world, sending us bountiful overflowing crops.

    But I'm leaning more towards a malicious intent.

    I am not the anime type. My son loved anime. I use to make fun of the cartoons when he was watching them. They all sound like they are having sex as they just walk around and talk. It drove me up a wall.

    No I don't think I would wear it out in public. It ia a bit obnoxiously colored. Soft material. I would, maybe, wear it camping. Maybe.

    Most likely when my daughter comes back next week she will steal it and wear it as a house dress on cold days because it is huge.
