Don't want to piss anyone off!! Big reason its hard to find high end MJ in Cali! Growers have changed the environment! This is serious as it gets! Monoculture does not work, which is why Ag must GMO fruits & Vegs ultimately leading to transgenic modification ! Depart of Ag can prolong the long term down hill slide by organizing farmers with a mass IPM programs but truth is Ag is imploding! Ag industry gonna shit now that MJ growers (unqualified) blowing up grows Broad & Russ mites have set in the environment killing both MJ & Ag. Central Valley is worst area due to mass altering of environment & not letting land heal. (no more wasp, lady bugs etc...) Is all over cali its a game changer! Grass Valley fought em all winter due to warm temps, Chico & SD as well. Two years ago my bother & I tried to help Nor Cal growers destroy mites but they didn't have the proper foundation to get rid of em so we gave up!!! This has been going on all over the world including Spain & Denver! Most if not all top breeders have known bout it for years! Now you know why farmers believe in God and are the "Salt of the earth" Other than Gov regulations its a main reason(pest & disease) since 90's all small farms are out of business! My advice is if they keep coming back you better move or quit if you keep spraying avid etc... they will become resistant to the pesticide! Also organic soil only increases your risk! Large scale MJ growing in Cali is very difficult. MJ growers that bring safe & healthy crops to market should be paid big $$$ if we can grow large scale MJ we can grow anything!
