Colombia’s “lost city of marijuana”
https://qz.com/652788/the-biggest-los...juana-farmers/
"The jungle around Toribío in southwestern Colombia is filled with vast pot plantations that stretch as far as the eye can see. At night, the greenhouse lights glow like a sea of fluorescent plankton." Interesting article and pics. |

Impressive pictures. They are some skilled horitulturalists. To grow that many plants with pretty much primitive materials is quite the feat. All direct plant too, not a single smart pot full of 500 gallons of fox farm in sight.

Skills look to be better than anticipated. I guess that is what happens when its in your genes. It is sad to see a way of life that is so harmless and beneficial being destroyed over greed.

Why on earth are they putting that shade netting over the canopy???? Tropical UVB light is a major reason for Columbia cannabis being so special. The shade net would reduce that.

Forcing the indigenous peoples to take "subsidies & credit" is akin to enslaving the people without their understanding or consent! Government is the issue... Not pot!!! |

The wonders of slash and burn agriculture! They probably use a new piece of forest every season. Same as coca farming!

using cuttings too, i see. some of those coverings looked light-transparent to me. maybe to protect from frequent tropical cloud-bursts? where is Red Rider when you need him?
