Things should not be alive if humans can't confine or use them for our capitalist purposes!
Yes I would! A weed plant!
I grew professionally for many years. That's exactly how it works lol. Consistency is key and cloning is the way. I've sold single clones for thousands of dollars but the 2nd one was always for maybe a hundred bucks.
Oh yeah? Well now I'm just going to proplift even harder!
I wasn’t thinking about it before, but I’m thinking about it now.
Already done it.
It's not theft, it's basically dumpster diving for living things. Living things that can grow in dirt with some water. They just see lost profit not an actual product loss.
I'll say if this is a family run place - it's still a dick move. If it's Lowes, Home Depot, or Menards, eh who cares.

Pinching off a leaf seems icky, but fallen leaves are fair game.
I usually take the floor leaves and tuck them into a plant or two I actually buy. That way I'm still paying for something and I might get some freebies if I can get the extra leaves to grow but it's not guaranteed. I probably wouldn't do this at a local store tho, just the big box stores.
