Ladybugs and larva protecting cannabis from pests
Seeing lots of ladybugs and larva on the cannabis. There must be plenty of aphids for them to eat. Thankfully it seems like the ladybugs keeping everything in balance and the plants are looking healthy.
The rabbits are also very healthy and we are starting to harvest them now. This one is a perfect example of what we are look for.
Pelts are clean and fluffy and livers look good too.

It's a risky way to grow cannabis amongst dozens of hungry rabbits and every year since we've been growing both together we always lose a few plants to the rabbits.

With no chance of growing any further, I pulled the plant and fed it to the rabbits. They certainly enjoyed the treat.
Even though we are down one plant now, there is an over achiever in the garden making up for the loss.

Simple tools and quick processing time is one of the many reasons I prefer rabbits over chickens.
They take just about any vegetation and turn it into meat. The organs tell the tale of a healthy diet too.
This one was a little smaller than I would have liked. Must have been extra fluffy and looked bigger than he was.
Been catching them with a net now instead of trapping so we can get exactly the ones we're after.
