One of my most efficient forms of pest control for the garden. She keeps out all the unwanted rodents, deer, and humans.

Here is a tale of one of my great blunders this season -
As I mentioned previously I took my girls out of my greenhouse this year permanently May 24th. I had checked the weather forecast for that week and saw it was suppose to be clear skys so I took down my greenhouse plastic and brought in my electrical equipment. I had planned to work through that week adding welded wire cages around them in the evening because they no longer had the protection of the greenhouse. May 26 this happens.
I remember driving home from work that day and coming into my valley and thinking, "that's strange that it's sprinkling" but I could not imagine the torrential down pour that would ensue moments later. End of May rain is rare in Cali; rain coming down in buckets out of nowhere at that time seemed like an impossible anomaly to me as I came home to some of my girls taking an unspeakable beating(main stock on that GSC I had to chop off). Serves me right, underestimating Mother Nature will fuck your shit up quick. And to think this is my first time growing in this area; I should have been more cautious.
Here is that GSC now
these plants can be some tough SOBs

Looks good man. Storms here come out of nowhere like that during wet season, which happens to be now

Same storm took out my driveway.
I have a steep driveway, so I install water bars to divert the rain water off the driveway during the wet months. Well, like you say, the weather forecast was for good weather in late May, so I scraped my driveway flat with my tractor and box scraper. I was tired of driving over those water bars, hell we're near June. Well 2 days later I had 2 inches of rain in 3 hours. I re-installed those water bars the best I could in the pouring rain, but was to late and suffered some damage.
TMB-
I'll be in touch soon shoes.

Some of those boys on the Stalk talk thread definitely got me beat so they're not the most impressive things around but you're welcome to them after harvest.

You wouldn't need to shoot the dog, she loves all humans even ones as abrasive as you. The dog is just one of my security alarms. Trust me I take rippers seriously that's why I take the proper precautions. Growing up in the green triangle I've known people who were tied up and robbed at gun point so I know vigilance is key(Something that was reinforced when I was deployed in the military). So if you were able to find my place in the backwoods you would literally be fighting an up hill battle with my boys and I dug into the Mountains. Look I know that a soldier on patrol always has the enemy on his mind but he doesn't let it eat at him. I know you're trying to stay alert bro but maybe you should just take a little toke and calm down for all our sakes.
