Well we got hit by rippers saturday morning around 5am. They came with a car and a uhaul truck we are on an acre so didn't here them until they were in the back yard we had a couple small plants we had brought from another location that would not fit in my main cage. Luckily we had already trimmed the tops off 4 of them so the got about 1 and a 1/2 plants about 3' tall that probably still had 3 weeks. The dumb asses tried to pull them out of the dirt so from what they dropped seems like they even messed that up because they were covered in soil. We heard them trying to get the main fence gate open were they had the uhaul backed up but that is not possible since I toe nailed it with about 20 3" grabbers so all they could do was throw it over. It was 3 for sure but I think there might have been a 4th they took off as soon as I lit them up with my 4 500w quartz flood lights that make my backyard bright as day. It was just me and my girl that night we did not follow them becuase the plants the took were now worthless so nothing good was going to come from it even though I really wanted to. I geuss now that i'm older I understand what is really important and my life is to busy for pissing matches. My main cage would take alot of time to breech so i'm not to worried but just to be on the safe side we fortified the fences, put up more barb wire, added motion alarms and borrowed a friends dogs. I just hate that the seen the big plants we stiil have at least 3 weeks on some so here's to long nights and please remember to keep your guard up but most importantly stay safe.

Really sorry to hear. Gives us the worst feeling deep in our stomach due to last years memories of being ripped.

He's wrong Ruby, here's an article about when to plant. I ALWAYS plant on the waxing moon, and not the warning moon.
TMB-

Times
  • There are two basic divisions of the moon's phases, and they are based on the rotation of the moon. The waning of the moon is from the full moon until the new moon, and the waxing of the moon is from the new moon until the third-quarter moon.
    During these phases, you should not plant on Sundays, in the first or last quarter of the moon, or during the full or new moon. The traditional reasons behind the warnings are that these times are considered barren times, and no good planting results will be yielded from planting during these times.
Waxing
  • The waxing moon gives off more light, which is the essence of life for plants, thus giving them more food and energy to grow. Annuals, which are planted yearly, grow best are those times. Plants that show their fruitfulness above the ground, including flowers, shrubs, fruit and vegetables, also grow well when planted during a waxing moon.
    There are some general rules for planting during the waxing moon. Plant seeds over larger areas of ground, such as ground planted with wheat or grass. Do not plant anything that requires deep root development. Repot or transplant houseplants during this time so they will have the benefit of more light energy. Gather herbs for the essential oil at this time also.

In my area it's tough to find a strain that can mature by Oct due to lots of rain and almost daily heavy dew.most of the time I have to cut earlier than I want due to mold.mother nature is not nice to them at this time of the year in these swamps.outdoors can be better than indoors,indoors can be controlled not as much in a guerilla grow.out west you have a longer grow time and med cards and decent numbers of plants that can be cared for on a daily basis.not my circumstances,I wish lol
