    @rancher hicks - He's using those freedom rangers. They are also pretty good layers I guess. Some people just like to show off their prowess and both parties pay for it. One time, I made my better half a bit nervous, we ran into smack dab rock wall that was about 60' tall, tried going around it...

    @rancher hicks - How was the foliage? I harvest ours well past the foliage turning yellow and dying back. If I can remeber correctly, they seem to enjoy alot of water in the begining, then as they mature I cut the water back. I did have a few rot on me, but I think that was because I had them...

    Morning people, First "chilly" day of the year, 42 degrees @ 5:00. You ever notice that it seems to get colder just as the sun breaks the horizon? I have always wondered if it is a sensory deception between your eyes and skin, with your ole gray matter playing games. I figure I have a few...
