Jim Berry’s Homegrown: From My Basement to Yours
Written By Jim Berry
I quickly became addicted to cannabis instead - not to the consumption, but rather the cultivation! For someone who never before had much patience for gardening, I was immediately hooked. I remember rushing home from work to see each day what new magic had occurred. I actually learned patience from cannabis. As my interest and experience grew, so did my operation. What started out as a 2x4 grow tent ended up being 10 lights, allowing me to produce about 75 pounds a year.
Exploring The Terroir Of The Mattole Valley: A Review Of Papaya Punch From Mattole valley Sungrown
Written By Shelley Peebles
When I was deciding which cultivar to highlight for this article, it seemed only natural for me to discuss the Papaya Punch cultivar. I have tried papaya grown in many different regions, and different varieties, however, this one stands out by far. This is something I attribute to the terroir of the Lost Coast.
The thing I loved most about getting to revisit this cultivar is that it brought me back to Miranda, NorCal. I was visiting and reconnecting with some girlfriends. One had brought along some of this fantastic Papaya Punch from Mattole Valley Farms. We rolled one up and salsa danced, enjoying each other's company for hours.
