   Thanks Skeeter, I've tried learning it that way to no reward   
   so far. The prices are so cheap now I'm not sure if it's even   
   worth the trouble since I don't smoke it that much.   
      
   How many oz's of decent buds might a feller harvest from   
   two healthy female plants? I know it varies but lets say   
   on the low end?
