I had one grasshopper get into my grow room last year. It chopped half my 3 week old seedlings right at the base
That's how those bastards operate. They cant just take a leaf or two, they have to make sure and screw you good. Luckily, around here, they don't really get going until the MJ has started putting out trics. They tend to leave the plants alone at that point. That bad year, it was really dry and I guess they wanted moisture and something green to eat more than they didn't like the taste.

No bullshit. I just finished trimming that 2011 crop right before my 2012 crop finished. Almost a year.
It filled my 4 car garage with hanging branches. It took me two weeks just to strip the fan leaves and break the plants down enough to cure in 5 gallon buckets.
I trimmed it dry. Averaged about 4-6 oz a week for a year. Never did get a total weight. It had to be close to ten pounds
With that much bud around, I'll bet you got a lot of friends! I pulled my best grow of Kali ever this past run and I got just over 8 oz from 4 plants. I don't sell, but I give alot away. If I had 10 lbs, I'd have to hand it out at the front door of Wal Mart to get rid of that much!

I help a few trusted people out. They have come to depend on me entirely.
I dont see anything wrong with being compensated for my hard work.

They finished oct 15. It would have been sooner but we got really cold rainy weather the last few weeks.
Its super frost resistant too. All around its just a strong plant. Really hard to fuck up.
I grew a few last year too. We got a bunch of snow before I could get out to them. I pretty much wrote them off as a loss.two weeks later I got out to them and they were healthy as can be and ready for harvest. With snow on the ground!!!
Now that is some good shit there! Nice to know particularly for those of us in the northern climates. Thanks for the pics and sharing your experiences. Rep +

With 100 plants you could easily come closer to 50 pounds! Holy shit man, that would be a lot of trimming!

yeah man, be careful. Spread yourself out well. That's alot of weight. You'll be a ripe cherry when all that comes in. Many years ago I was the dude who could get you what you wanted around here. I found out the people you surround yourself with aren't always as smart as you might be. They just don't have dog in the fight, if you know what I mean. People love to talk. I didn't get busted. A friend was at a probation meeting at the local courthouse and overheard my name come up in the office next door to the one she was in. They weren't talking about giving me the citizen of the year award LOL. Needless to say, I had a fire sale, closed up shop and considered it karma's warning shot across my bow.

I don't gorilla grow, but one thing that has occured to me concerning LEO and catching growers is how cheap and good trail cams are nowdays. In days gone by, they just cut a patch down when they found it because they didn't have the man power to surveil a patch 24-7. It seems likely that today a crafty cop could post a couple IR cams around to see who's tending and what time they come by. Just a thought, but it might be prudent to keep this in mind. use a differing route, protect your face, that sort of thing. It seems like another good reason to spread out some.

I too wish you good weather and good luck!

I would guess that if you use night vision, you would see the IR flash if there were a trail cam.
