I've got 30 some starts plugged in now. Will be plugging many more in over the coming 4-6 weeks. I'm shooting for a minimum 20# year with hopes of busting 30 elbows. I've got 2 main patches this year instead of 1. Going to have 2 additional minor patches. Here's some before pix of my 2nd main patch. It's a very sweet locale. No hauling outside media in. Native soil is the bomb. Easy digging and full of worms. I plugged a bunch of Island Afghani and Candy Train crosses in and a few 1/2 joint x IA. It's going to be a rockin ass patch.

And a creek that typically holds water the entire year.

One of my most persistent and nagging issues over the years is the demise of young starts in the first week or two of being plugged in. Deer, rabbits, coons, opossums, and farm cats are the problem. 4 strands of fishing line ran like a fence around my patch neutralizes the deer problem but does little to nothing in regards to the rest of those critters. Chicken wire works but is a bit of a pain. I have found the perfect solution. This little get up is quick, easy, and effective. I am stoked because I lose on average half of everything I stick in the ground via the above mentioned critters. I am not able to get my plants to a big enough size to hold their own against the wildlife before planting. This new approach should result in about a 50% increase of my final product. Very excited!:weed: These are quick and easy to install and don't stick out. They can be bent and then pushed into the ground. Put a little debris on the sides and this gives my tender starts time to thicken up.

Very good idea I may have some of this fencing laying around. If I do ill use this method aswell.
thanks for sharing!

Take a shovel and start digging. This soil has some sand in it making it perfect for roots to expand unhindered. And the presence of so many earthworms is a dead giveaway in my opinion.

I need to do a fair amount of trimming around my patch for better light penetration. So it's 11 and I'm back out here. I fucking love this. The only fucking time I get excited about cutting and clearing brush lol. I also brought....
3 Super Qrazy X Bangi Haze
1 Candy Train cross.
2 Johnny Cash X Professor Moriarity and
3 Stumbleweed to plug in. I'm down to 5 starts that can be planted any time. After plugging these in I will have 27 in this patch and 14 in the other. The other will end up with the most. I've got 14 Jackberry via Sannies and gifted to me by @Smidge34. He also gifted me the SQ X BH(bred by dragon flames genetics), IA, 1/2 joint x IA, and a couple others I am not running. I'm getting ready to bust my hump in this shitty humid weather and couldn't be happier!!!!!!:weed:
