this year stands out in my head,
i was around 17 or 18 and had 63 nice plants up in the hills in a single patch
i nicked my ankle with a powersaw the very week summer started and males would show and could not go up to get males out it being so far over big hills,
my brother went for me,with explicite details on what to look for to see if its males
i told him anything with lil balls on it is a male,pull it and anything that aint got any leave it
he brought me 19 female plants back and left the males growing
i only had 3 other plants(luckily not a 100 yards from my house)
and even luckier still they were all females,
real bad luck then a lil good luck i guess,
my bro never quiet got over it untill he jione a church years later he would bring it up and say 'do ya remember that time...."
like i could forget
peace
