 so fucked up i had to laugh

So earlier this grow season one of my plots got ripped. My other plot was across town on the edge of a corn field. Like 2 feet into the feild along the edge. Yesterday I was driving by the corn field and noticed something that made my jaw drop.......they CUT the fucking corn! In the past 20 yrs that land has been farmed it has always been feed corn that's harvested in mid-late october.....well after the first frost. But that's just my fucking luck. Valuable lesson learned here! I guess there's a chance that they weren't hit....but I was too pissed off to go check yesterday. /end rant
So I'm un-officially down to 2 plants until I confirm that they made it through and weren't chopped.....I know they don't take the machines right to the edge of the woods so I may be safe.
 
Have to laugh at myself for this one. I shouldn't have taken the risk.

Of course it's happening inside your head.

I've had plants outdoors that were looking killer. I came to check on them and most of them had the branches missing. I knew it wasn't deer cause the main stems were still there just all the branches missing so it looked like a bunch of polls left behind.
Well I found out it was rats. The little motherfuckers would would climb up the stalks chew off the branches and haul them off. That was the beginning of these rat traps at the base of my plants. The local foxes love it and clean the rats out of the traps before I arrive to this day.

That's fucking nuts. I bet their nests smelled dank as hell....well at least the one's that got away. Lol Funny how some animals choose mj over all the other options out there in the woods. Thankfully we don't gotta worry about rats out my way.....well the four legged ones at least.

Getting ripped fucking sucks.
