Cape Town police have confiscated the contents of a Rastafarian front garden that was grown for smoking rather than pretty flowers.
Inspector Nkosikho Mzuku, spokesman for the Ocean View station, said police were looking for a suspect in the area on Wednesday morning.
In an informal settlement that he described as a "Rasta camp", the police noticed dagga plants of varying sizes growing in flower beds around the front of one shack.
The plants were screened from a nearby road by a wooden fence.
Police removed a total of 750 plants, worth about R5 000, from the beds.
A woman and three men, aged between 36 and 42, were arrested and would appear in the Simonstown Magistrate's Court on Thursday, on charges of possessing dagga.
All four were Rastas, he said. - Sapa
