Redrockets were a popular item in my camp last year. They're great if you can actually keep up with the bastards but I found that they only burned me out sooner. As for the shrooms, I love blocks where they grow naturally! Just dont let the gnomes sidetrack you! Creatine, great for the off season wh...

Learning the trade from Ben and his vets was a helluvan experience- definately life altering. Unfortunately he is not running a planting operation in 2007. (Bowater sucks) There are some ot...

You think 8 cents is bad, NS has dropped to 7 cents in 2007. And NS aint a pretty place to plant. Alberta here I come P.S. I did a pubcrawl for NS planters in Halifax with "I bend over for 8 cents" on the girls shirts and "I've got a dibble for you baby" on the guys. Good Times.....

Have to agree with daleks on this one. Never to old to plant. As long as you have the physical capability and mental state, age has nothing to do with planting. One guy i planted with started when he was thirty and was still going strong on his tenth season in the bush. He did thinning once the plan...
