Comments on the clue

1.	..yes, but you the 'of'; a pity
2.	1 point. No problem with "seed" but not sure "on" quite works.
3.	I think seed is a bit iffy, and would have preferred 'marijuana's seed' for the wordplay
4.	'marijuana seed' for M is stretching it.

Comments on the competition
1.
Where the clue word is clued as an exclamation, e.g. "My", I feel there should be an exclamation mark in the clue as well. I don't know if this is a matter of convention or just personal taste. Equal first place 28 39 and 40 with 4 points each. Runners up 13 26 and 47 with 1 point each.
