It was a blast (not) getting the 466 pounder out. Poured the day before. After pulling the plant. Setting everything up, the tripod sunk down 1 ft, due to the mud created. That was not the problem. Since I can't get the truck in the yard I used my engineered rough terrain dolly, which got stuck. Couldn't even move a foot with 2 people pulling. Ended up setting it back down on a tarp and pulled it to the grass by myself( poor back)then reset the tripod and dolly and finally got to the front. My point.... What we get ourselves into with this hobby!! Neighbors thought I was crazy tilling up a huge patch and had such a little seed. Then by July they were freaked out by the fast growing vines, huge 3 ft leaves. oh the fun
