sh*t happens

So, I've been growing these two beautiful plants outdoors. They were like my children. They were about 6 months old and so big. It would've been harvest time next month. My father and I were looking forward to it being it was my first successful grow. well...almost successful. Tuesday morning my dad goes to check on them before he takes me to school and comes back looking quite somber. He proceeds to tell me that they had been ripped up. OOOOh was I furious, almost to the point of tears. When I come home and look at the damage, it was clear someone took for keeps. There was dirt missing from the pots and there was no sign of roots. We looked for dirt trails or pressed grass but found neither. Further investigation found that they had also taken my bong. It was a sad day to say the least. Only a handful of people knew and they were people I thought I could trust. This just goes to show how careful you have to be when growing. Even when you think you take all the right precautions, things can still go wrong. It is just the risks you have to take sometimes.

yeah. I made a big mistake and broke rule number one. Don't tell anybody. I'm very lucky no one opened their mouths to the police.

I very sorry to hear that. Karma will get them.

A few cheap fluorescent bulbs and you can move the show inside. Something to think about.

That happened to me a few years ago.
I joined Yahooka ranting and cursing about the injustice of it all until some wise words calmed me down.

Don´t worry.
Next year will be your year.

outdoor growing can be a goddamn german circus at times.
