IF your plants get 'stripped' by hail.... keep them fed and watered.

You will be amazed at how quickly they come back.

And by the way, for any of you concerned about frost. I've seen plants get frosted overnight, but looking proud and healthy by 10:00. Maybe if they are in the ground versus in a container. I had all but one of my plants get smoked in my greenhouse when I put them in there at the end of April when we had that snowstorm and a week of cold shitty weather.

Don't sell cannabis short. It, in fact, does grow like a WEED!!!!!:woohoo:

Much 'myth', to be found in the public domain. These girls are a lot tougher than you'd think from a bunch of info posted by 'experts'. Yes, you only get one crop a year, and you'll get more if you treat the girls well. Only natural.

Interesting side note. When I went to pull and replace these girls they came right out of the soil. None of them had a chance to even start sending roots into the new surrounding dirt. I had a tiny 250 watt heater in the 6x8 greenhouse to try and help them out but it wasn't enough. I replaced all the plants except the Sour Kush in the middle with GG4, Daywrecker, and OGKB 2.0. The Sour Kush came back with a vengeance like it's got something to prove :yes:

You guys talking about green houses taking over and indoor going away, you are half right and half wrong. Have any of you been to the Netherlands and perused their selections at any of the coffee shops? You have a variety of weeds, it's not all kind bud (seedless). There is also hemp farming going on, so you end up with the possibility of cross pollination happening. We will be seeing a SHIT load of hemp farming cropping up around Colorado raising the chances of crops getting cross pollinated.

I do think that some things will move towards greenhouses, but I think that indoor and outdoor in green houses will complement one another.

You have more security with an indoor set-up then you do with anything outside.

I understand your consideration but I imagine that some of the same people will be owning and operating hemp outfits as well as Cannabis cultivation centers. I imagine a play nice zoning scenario where maybe the hemp guys can stay on one end of a county and the others will stay on their side.

In the end, if push comes to shove, who do you think has more money to work with regarding pushing people out of their bubble?

Pollen can travel hundreds of miles with the help of the wind!

What i'm sure about is that commercial seed co's make hybrid & heirloom corn, soybeans & whatever all the time. Foreign pollen apparently isn't much of a problem, likely because it ends up being a very small % of what's in the field.

I'm sure it could be but they seem to be able to avoid it. OTOH, if you're trying to grow 100% sinsemilla near a hemp plantation or in the midwest where hemp grows wild all I can say is rotsa ruck.
