Had a few plants ripped...

This is only my second year growing and I've just experienced my first rip. Can't even begin to explain the anger I'm feeling... Anyway, this is my story.

I went to do my bi weekly watering a couple days ago. When i got to the point where i could usually see my plants my heart sank... both had been taken.

I had two really nice sensi skunks #1 growing in 5 gallon buckets in a overgrown field. They were females and moderately tall for being topped (5ft) and bushy as hell.

I searched the surrounding area, thinking that they might have moved them, since I couldn't imagine that they had been moved far due to size. No luck.

Luckily, I have other plots, but it still pisses me off. The kicker is I might actually know who took them. Weeks prior, a couple kids drove by me as I was walking down the dirt road from the plot. They're known growers/rippers.

Should I take matters into my own hands or just drop it? Revenge or the possibility of getting back what's mine sounds good... You can never be too careful guys. Keep safe

Sorry to hear that bro. It truly sucks to see something you've worked hard on get taken by some lazy scumbags.

Wish I could move indoors, just don't have the means at the moment.

Good luck on your future grows.

Bullshit, man..

You live and learn, I guarantee you will enhance your security techniques from this experience, I know I did, so there's that benefit at least..

I would suggest just marking it up as a loss and moving on, as frustrating as that sounds.. Just take it as a learning experience and keep an eye out in the future

Good thing you have other plants, so it's not a total loss

Yeah man, I definitely won't be using that area ever again. It was kind of a last minute thing. The season was getting on and I needed a spot for two more girls. Sucked that they turned into such nice plants just to be taken.

I probably should just let it go, but I can't shake the thought of it.

Thanks for your opinion.

Don't go around accusing people. It's not good for your own business.
An accusation to me sounds like blindly blaming someone without cause or reason. There are multiple reasons why I believe these people are involved, reasons that I did not include in the post for the sake of anonymity.

Word will eventually get around, it always does. Then I'll know for sure.

I'd just leave it be... A couple of plants isnt worth the hassle... Harness your anger into growing in a better more concealed area, and covering up your trails. Use this experience as an educator for future grows....
