Nah we are lucky here nothing like that.
Humans are the most we have to worry about.
That why i go in at night mainly so i avoid them, I wouldnt at night if we had dangerous animals or snakes though.

Thats coming along hobbit.

I have had a hard time with mine lately, no rain for weeks so having to cart water into them every night now, then we get a storm from the wrong direction which knocked most of them over, they are sheltered from all but one way which was the way the storm came through, lost a few branches and taped up a few more, and they looked beat up for a couple of days after.

Then i kicked a wasps nest when i went in there next by accident and got a few stings and got chased out.

Then a rescue helicopter flew just over them and circled before landing about 200 metres from them on a raised hill part to pickup a person. How they didnt see my crop i dunno or maybe they did and just ignored it but im thinking they where probably more looking out for hazards and where to land, as they where circling for about five minutes, I got a pic of it hovering just near my crop will put it up after i have pulled them just in case.

At the moment im having to carry in 36 litres a night to water them all, do it in two lots every night i water one of two areas,and they still a bit wilty by the second day. Stupid drought.

All good though if i can pull them off i going to get a lot, as they are looking nice.

Hope everyone elses are growing lotsa trichomes.

Wow dude sounds like tough work! Hopefully you can put in the hard work and be rewarded, the rescue chopper wouldnt have taken notice they would have had their eyes on their job/target and nothing else, it takes a lot of concentration to be a helicopter pilot. Good luck mate.

The next two are a rug burn at the front and not sure what behind, interesting how more advanced in flower the rug burn is, seems to be the earliest flowering strain.

Talking of helis, this is the one a few weeks back that was buzzing my crop,well its a rescue heli landed near my plants, but they had me a bit worried as they flew in circles looking for minutes before.

Blue dream Williams cheese planted the seed March 23 and have had them under fluorescents 24/0 I split the bigger plant purposely at the base when I was low stress training (ironic I know) been topping and super cropping as it recovers. She has so many tops! Just getting over nutrition burn as you can see. The others I tried different things with and you can see which plant did better. Same strains and same environment I cycle them all under the led light too
