Last year was very similar up here in the high country, Spring seemed to have broken early with perfect weather in april , prompted me to get the boat running and out there , then may and early june was terrible, cold ,grey, snowy for like 3 weeks straight , this years not as bad as last but real similar , I have kept logs for my veggies (as well as other) for several years here @ over 8000 ft above sea level. Many claim fathers day as the plant date for outdoor up here, but I always shoot for earlier . A few years ago I planted my guerrilla garden outdoors around the third week of may, and had a successful vintage , at just below 9000 ft. Every year is a toss up here though , you gotta be ready early, but be prepared to wait til june if necessary. My tomatoes have endured some cold nights (accidentally) this season. Left my herbs out last night .. F ! basil ,mint , marigold mint, lavender... looking pretty pissed today.

I can't believe those girl scout made it... those little seedlings either... crazy

Organic soil.....These are hugulkultur style beds. Decomposing logs are sitting at the bottom of each bed providing water retention and also adding beneficial life back into the soil. 10 varieties of peas, several varieties of vetch, marigolds, tomatoes, squash, you name it, all growing in a solid clump throughout. I suspect that only because the soil is so rich, the companion plants worked together and the wine bottles held thermal mass a tad longer(filled with water and salt which have thermal mass and retain heat after sunset) was I able to keep everything alive without covering the beds with a tarp. No till organics is a beautiful thing.

I am assuming this is a result of the illegal pesticide use and the mass confiscation of plants. Company loses almost half their employees
http://www.thecannabist.co/2015/05/14/pot-layoffs-strainwise-colorado-marijuana/34896/

I for one would like to know what the illegal pesticide(s) that was used, was. That info could help prevent others from doing the same stuff.

I could almost see them at some point saying that rooting powders and gels are prohibited, just look at the labels, for use on ornamental plants only. I think that might be how they could look at it.

Representatives from Eagle 20 responded by saying that their product is not intended for cannabis especially on an indoor grow.

So gov. Hickenlooper just signed something new to do with plant counts or something. Could somebody please direct me to some information regarding the new "whatever it is" the governor did. The morning news was very vague and not very informative. Something to do with chronic pain medical recommendations and high plant counts I think... I don't know, that's why I'm askin...anybody?

basically, "severe pain" isnt enough and must now be more specifically defined.

It also seems the "severe pain" no longer qualifies for extended counts...

one more attempt to disrupt medical in order to push folks towards rec tax rates

but there is also this:

Cool! Thanx for the quick response! I have an extended plant count for severe pain but I think I will be ok through this. My doctor specified my condition on my rec. and I do have other doctor visits besides the pot doc concerning this condition which I think makes it more legitimate. I hope so anyways. I ain't killin no plants unless they're done flowerin.

and the one with kids in school, so fucking stupid,
what happened to federal drug free school zones? if they are out the window then can we also throw out federal mandatory minimums....
the norml fucktards took it into their own hands to pass limitations on caregivers while also supporting that idiotic kids in school shit.

For a long time I've been wondering if the use of those chemicals and other are behind the "cyclic vomiting" that some doctors and lawyers keep keep trying to shove down my throat and saying that chronic use of pot make you sick and you throw up.

in some people cannabis hypermesis is a real problem, caused by ABUSE, even beyond chronic use.... like dabs all day. imo it's real, had a friend who would have "episodes"
