Aloha,

This person is not far from harvest. All are clones. If I left a note they will be laughing at me, since the next time they visit, they will harvest. When I find stuff that is not mine I do not want to leave a note. I try my best not to leave footprints. A note would tell them I am also in the field and may encourage them to search. If they search long enough they may find other peoples stuff.

The first thing I do when I go into a field is make sure I'm alone. If I find an occupied area I go elsewhere. It is not uncommon in the fields to find someone else's plants. Happens to me about one time in ten. In this case they were put out after I put mine in. Nothing I could do, except get mine out of Dodge. I was just lucky that my plants were small enough to be transplanted.

All in all it was my own fault. This field was a bit close to civilization. I chose poorly.
