ya i think imma go to network with the different people about a business idea i have! i started a farm & ranch maintenance/ farm animal care/ gardening business... currently i am taking care of 2 ranchs, one with 8 horses that i feed and clean up after, the other with 250 hogs and 4 horses that i feed and clean up after/ as well as any maintenance that they have for me to do... and i was gunna try and see what people think of the idea of becoming a gardening service for 215 patients... you know the ones who cant actually do the physical labor of gardening! from digging the wholes or building planter beds, to watering and pruning a couple times a week. i would come in and do the work for them and they would pay me hourly rate for the time i spend tending thier garden... they do the harvesting, trimming etc. etc., basically i would set them up for good quality meds as long as they trim dry and cure it right. they reap the rewards of the meds and i get paid $$ for the labor!!! i would be "the man who comes a couple times a week and takes care of the grass" you know! Im sure if i can find the legal aspect of it... there has to be a market for it! im sure theres people out there who have the property or room to grow but dont have the know how to do it! AND have the funds to spend!.... sorry im hella dont mean to steal the thread... its just been an idea ive had and thats y i figured it would be a good idea to go to the expo and network to see what other peoples opinions are... what do you think hodge?

RD, sounds like you know what you want and now are trying to achieve it, wish you the best of luck with this.

Thanks Richie, we grew the Twilight from Dutch Passion Seeds and I liked it, have seeds right here in front of me but chose to pass on it this season..

I've considered doing the same, but woke up one morning and realized age and arthritis prohibit me doing much physical labor.

Most dispensaries have a bulletin board. In your shoes, I'd join several clubs and ask if you can post a sign, "Expert gardening help".

The down side is that those that could afford it buy their meds, and those that need your services are sick and poor.

There are definitely some folks who would use your service. Just not as many as you'd think.

Good luck!

Yea it was, we called it celery stalk because of the deformity. Had 1 plant out of a box with 2 that did this, next season a crooked prairie started in the same box mutated the same way?

Hey looking good over here.... I haven't even gotten all my raised beds up yet, let alone transplanted all my plants..... hopefully I will have everything in the ground in mid June, everything thats going in beds anyways, :). Just harvested some radishes myself, how is your veggie garden looking?

Hey Hodge!

That particular mutation seems to occur only when a plant is growing near its absolute maximum rate. I'm guessing you were getting 4 or five leaves per node?

That box must be a very happy place to be for a Cannabis plant!

Do you still have the picture of it dry Hodge? Looks really funky.

Looked but can't find it? Think it was in my other laptop that was taken in the robbery?

VG, those boxes were destroyed when we put the pool in this spring, new ones are much better situated to get maximum sunlight..

NB bring that excavator over here, I have some holes to dig. Hodge the new boxes look great and you have given me an idea I had when I was calculating the quantities needed for the entire area. I think Im doing individual boxes to save on $ for materials. Getting ready for sexing then into the ground. May have to uppot them until I get the holes dug. Hope you and the family have a great M-day weekend.
