Seth Rogen and weed go together like peanut butter and jelly, so it's no surprise that the multitalented actor and comedian recently launched his own weed company, Houseplant. Seth has been delighting fans with his handmade ceramics for two years now, posting pictures on Instagram of his colourful, whimsical creations that typically hold his blunts. Now, you can buy beautiful Seth-designed ashtrays, vases, lighters, and, of course, artisan weed in pretty tins (cannabis is available for California residents only right now). His website, which just launched in early March, is so popular, it crashed within the first few hours of going live due to such high traffic!
In a video posted to his Instagram page on March 1, Seth explained that he has been envisioning his own weed company for a decade. Houseplant (@houseplant and @houseplantUS) sells everything from weed to unique ceramics that are elegant and refined. In the post, Seth said, "We've got all kinds of cool sh*t that I truly hope will enhance your life." For reference, Demi Lovato commented, "They f*cking stack," with a fire emoji, referencing the cute tins that stack on top of each other, so yeah, this stuff is pretty amazing. The packageing is made of recycled materials, including biodegradable packing peanuts that are nontoxic and dissolve in water, so you can repurpose the boxes or recycle them. You're definitely going to want to order soon before they all sell out! Keep reading to learn more about Houseplant and how it works.
Houseplant Was Founded Because Seth Loves Weed
The Houseplant weed is what Seth actually smokes. He hand-selected every single strain and implements strict quality controls for Houseplant cultivators, with specific criteria for how the weed should be grown, look, smell, and smoke. In a statement on Houseplant's website from Seth and co-founder Evan Goldberg, they said, "We just love weed so much. It's unlike anything on Earth, and it's proudly made us the people we are today, which is why we work tirelessly to be the company that weed deserves."
If you're a fan of Seth's acting career, his love of smoking weed should come as no surprise, as he frequently centres many of his movies and characters around it. Who could forget the classic that is Pineapple Express?
Orange Tins Contain Sativa
The weed that comes in the orange tins contain sativa. According to Healthline, sativa is known for its "head high," which can help reduce anxiety and increase creativity and focus. Houseplant said, "A sativa isn't just about smoking something smooth and invigourating; it's what we turn to day after day when we need to get things done." Seth and Evan like sativa for its "uplifting strength, flavour, and repeat usability."
Pink Tins Contain Indica
The weed that comes in the pink tins contain indica, which is known for its full-body effects, increasing deep relaxation, and reducing insomnia, according to Healthline. This is the weed you smoke when it's time to wind down. Houseplant said, "We love an indica when it comes to unwinding at the end of the day and are always testing new strains that deliver maximum relaxation. No matter how you like to kick back, know that a Houseplant indica has been curated by Seth and Evan to provide a smooth, warm, and calming experience."
Ashtrays and Vases Are Available
The Ashtray Set by Seth ($85) combines Seth's love of ceramics with his love of weed for an ashtray that is functional and chic. It features a deep well to keep ash from flying away, a notch to rest your joint, and a saucer to hold a lighter, which can also be used as another ashtray or a coaster for the ashtray. It also comes with a matching vase for flowers. Note: this is limited to one per customer.
There Are Also Smooth Vinyls!
Another way to unwind? Listening to the smooth tunes that come in the Houseplant Vinyl Box Set ($95). This comes with three records, totaling 103 minutes of hand-selected songs that are perfect for whatever vibe you're feeling, from upbeat tracks to music that will chill you out.
There's a Lighter That Doubles As Art
The Block Table Lighter ($220) is a modern design that doubles as an ashtray. It's basically a work of art on your coffee table! It's made out of a premium aluminium that contains a high-powered butane lighter inside a leather insert (butane sold separately.)
California Residents Can Get Houseplant Delivered to Their Door
If you live in California, you're lucky, because Cali residents only can get Houseplant delivered right to your door for free (because marijuana laws differ from state to state, the company's cannabis products are currently only available to California residents). Simply go online, enter your zip code, and select your options. For everyone else, you can order the house items (non-weed) for shipping to your home. Just check back often for new product launches!
Houseplant Is Dedicated to Educating and Fighting For Equity
At Houseplant, it's not just about smoking weed — the company is also passionate about educating people about cannabis and working toward a more equitable future. In a statement by Seth and Evan on Houseplant's website, they said, "At Houseplant, we feel strongly about educating people about cannabis, a plant we love and believe can benefit almost everyone in some way. We will always use our platform to educate people about the devastating history of the War on Drugs and help end the senseless, racist cannabis laws that, despite progress, still exist today. We won't stop until every adult in America is able to enjoy cannabis without fear of being labeled a criminal. We are working towards a more equitable future for the industry — from supporting BIPOC-owned businesses to making sure our company is a diverse and inclusive place to work. "
