That's funny Student, about the elk, i mean. up here in northern michigan we also have elk, not in my backyard but close by. and i can step outside and listen to the coyotes yapping, most nights...i've never grown out in the woods, but plan to this spring and i'm kinda worried about the deer, rabbits, etc. i've got some chickenwire for fences, but don't want to attract attention either. has anybody ever tried to grow early misty or known someone who has? it might be a good plant for up here, but not if it's low-yield or not good smoke. ciao
