I have decided to take the 2019 season off.My knee is bothering me going on 1 year & half now.Doctor said is over use.I have been remodeling and working for over 40 years.So for the Michigan growers Bubba is leaving the door wide open.Now if the weather cooperates its all yours.Dont let anybody josh ya. Its all about the weather. Cloudy seasons will kill your grow.I will be touring on my You Tube channel "Bubbas Pleasure Patch Tour" Mostly in local gardens in Michigan/Indiana/Ohio/Wisconsin. My new job as a salesman.Yes as a salesman! Who da THUNK? LOL I will also post vidoes on Marks Mixes Secret page on Facebook.Mostly for new growers to get the basics on growing.

I will be back in 2020 if the Lords willing & the creek dont rise.I will put Marks Mixes on cruise control while some behind the scenes marketing takes place.So to all the "Prudes" & Bubba haters I have only one thing to say. 'Dont hate me cause Im Beautiful"LOL Ill BE BACK!!!

Have a Great year to ALL! I will be stock piling 1911s & 1501s as these are the 2 of the best seeds on the planet.I predict the 1911 will grow the first 3000 lber in the next 2 years.

So make videos,learn, and teach others... vs try for 3k. Maybe you wish you could do both. But... the 'tooth is its too much work!'
You've worked hard. I think thats ok.
We dont really expect you to do it all. If truth is if you do whats best... thats good enough.

That sounds great. Your hair will get thicker and darker, blood pressure will lower, glucose levels decrease and sleep will be optimal. At least that's what I hope for me. I'm taking the year off too. Nothing like kids baseball 5 days a week till 8pm, then coming home and vine burying with a headlamp. I'll be back in 2020.

I can sympathize with the bum knee. I wish time off would have fixed mine but it was too far gone. Have fun with those grandkids.

Thanks Guys! If I cant get on my knees in 2020 I will get the kids to weed the plants. Where there is a Bubba there is a way!!

Jack will WHACK the weeds of that Im sure. He is a mini me.Im so proud of my grand kids.Thank you Lord! The greatest gift ever well almost. Cant forget Ma Ma Bubba. Shes a keeper to.The kids love to work if you direct them & teach them it has rewards.

Banana splits & a new fishing pole for the kid who works with out hurting the plants. they are smaller & do less damage then a 200 lb gorilla inside the canopy of the plant.Jack is GI JOE crawling weed pulling machine.He has been doing it since he was in diapers I have You Tube videos to prove it. As Ron says ACTION JACKSON !!

I reluctantly took last year off to catch up on living life a bit... it was a tough decision but well worth it in the end. As long as your friends have some big pumpkins to play with, you'll be just fine.

I got to play with 4 of Karl's one ton pumpkins in my off-year Bubba, see if you can find a better patch than that on your journeys!

Good luck with your health and family wealth!

The trick is taking the right year off.Its all about the weather.Clouds are killing our Michigan grows. Give us a cloudless season & we will be at the top of the charts. Good Luck to all!
