Another time, out in a rural area, we had a rather large crop separated from general view by a large hedge of hops and those really big west-coast blackberries. Now hops and blackberries can be some fragrant stuff in their own right. I've heard that hops is graftable to mj and also that they're related somehow, but I'm no botanist, and it's hearsay till someone confirms it. But we grew it there. I don't remember how many plants, but we got 26 large coffee cans of bud off them.

But the story is that we set up the skeet range next to the hops and berry hedge. Come fall, the pot was much taller than the hops, but the odor was about a wash. We would tend the crop and then go shoot us some skeets. That was fun, when we weren't shooting starlings. We had a clay pidgeon tosser that you wound up and it let the clays go with some spring action.
One day we were done with tending the crop, had a nice little pile of early buds down, and were well into the skeet match when up comes the sheriff deputies in two cars. It seems someone had complained about all the shooting and asked them to check it out. We thought we were going down for sure. My roomie took off his coat and tossed it over the pile of buds, and we went to greet the sheriffs, trying to keep them from looking over at the hops hedge, where about three feet of pot stuck out. We explained that we were just shooting skeet, as we had been for years. And we decided to have a shootout. So the sheriffs went back and got their shotguns, and we quickly tilted the pigeon flinger in a different direction, and we lined up the sheriffs with their backs directly to the hops hedge, and we all shot a round of skeet.

I don't remember who won.

did that help?

Yeah that helps alot, thanks. Haha thats pretty funny about the cops pulling up, my heart would've sank. So what methods did you use to keep the plants short? Lst, topping ect. Appreciate it :rasta:
