Hey all,
New to the site so just thought I'd come in and say 'hi'.
I read the first few pages with interest, and the last (quite a) few with a big dose of LOL
Just outside London here, and been paying £50 for about 3/8 of alright hash for a while... daylight robbery in anyone's book, but it's all I could get, cos it was reliable and I'm not trusting street dealers. Not been smoking much but been drinking too much for a while (medical needs that a lot of countries would recognise but this backward 2nd world nation of ours doesn't - I'm seriously thinking about emigrating just to get what I consider my basic human rights met).
Anyway, I've recognised the drinking's because the hash was just 'OK' and spending time on here's got me absolutely licking my lips at what's possible. I haven't had decent weed like that for a couple of years now, and as my supply's dried up I've decided the Riu way's going to be my way forward for 2011 and beyond. Less booze, and more headfood
So that's me. Peace to all

Forgot my main question for you all! Do you guys use a proxy or other way to cover your tracks completely to visit here and post? If you don't, think it's safe?
I'm only considering a very small grow for personal only, but get really uncomfortably paranoid about this kind of stuff, so would really appreciate hearing what you all think.
Cheers!

Nobody gives a shit about a small time op.
If you have a large op, then you simply don't mention it.

you can use a proxy if you want ... but to be honest , I doubt The old bill are in here snooping about , The are under funded and streched to the limits as it is . It's good to be a bit paranoid , If it makes you feel better ...use a proxy
This site has a bit of a disclaimer and the rules state that anyone signing up is not law agents , I'm not sure if that's water tight but i have never herd of anyone here being busted due to use of this or any other forums .
Besides ... most of the people here are roll players and are pretending to be growing / dealing ...it's just a big green RPG
If your small and personal ...it's no big drama
If your using an iphone or a smart phone to take pics ...I think you should look into removing GPS co ords that are embedded into your image files ..Apart from that ... Have at it

Thanks a lot Vento, your welcome's really appreciatedHi ya Natto
So you got a plan ?
I've been dipping into books about growing for close-on twenty years now. It's always been a huge interest, but I always had a great supply so it was easier not to bother. I'm really concerned about quality now, plus supply's a problem. And reading on here it's such a passion and really fulfilling for a lot of folk - and I just know that's gonna be me
With my present situation I think my best option's a stealth cab, growing two plants max. It's just for me, and I reckon I need about 6ozs a year, so I'm looking at a tidy little set-up hopefully, but still in the very early planning stages (and hoping I won't annoy too many peeps on here with my newbie q's, but my first purchase next week will be a Bible or two).
I'll be starting with a CFL grow I'm decided, no doubt expand later. Looking at soil and organic, lst. Quality's more important than quantity for me (long as I get a bit of quantity!), but it'd be nice to have both eventually. My first grow will be an experiment I guess, and no expectations, but we have some dodgy electrics here, so that's gotta be sorted first. Gutted, because the posts and pics on here have me champing at the bit!!

Thanks a million guys, you've reassured me a lot
I'll probably use a proxy, just because I get paranoid. One of my medical conditions is a serious anxiety disorder, so I can probably do without that stress, ha!
Nice to meet you all, and I didn't mean to interrupt the banter, but thanks a lot for the warm welcome, much appreciated, cheers
Gonna be a while for the
s from me unfortunately, but I've taken the first small step
Many thanks for being so helpful and going gentle on a newbie one and all, I feel 'officially' a bit more settled in and comfortable so feel free to go all regional on me now, and get this thread back to where it was
Peace to all my new-found UK toking partners, hopefully I'll be seeing you all around

) 6OZ a year off 2 plants under CFL should be easily doable, espec if you can get a little veg cab going as well

What's up natto, glad to have you here.
Don't be so worried about being a noob and introducing yourself, everyone has been there. This site is filled with enough information for you to be able to manage 2 plants to 200 plants. Al you gotta do is read. My first grow was not great, I sorta went into it without covering all the bases (ph, nute strength etc) and ended up only pulling 4 oz from a really long ass grow. I would definitely recommend making sure you know exactly what you're gonna do right up until harvest. And don't be afraid to ask for help, theres tonnes of regulars here that'll be more than happy to offer you sound advice

Awesome mate, cheers! I took a look at your first grow thread - WOW! It fills me with encouragement, and to be honest makes me very impatient to get started even before the electrics are seen to (only some sockets have problems, but my place's got to be investigated and maybe re-wired all over so I know that's probably not a good ideawelcome to the club fella, CFL grower here as well (for now
) But I'm VERY keen to get going with all of this. You've really inspired me with your grow, thanks so much - I'll be following your posts that's for sure I posted this on a CFL thread, but this is something I'm thinking of (the only reply I had on there so far was 'don't breakum'!). I'm going up to London next week to the shop to check out the options. Any feedback from anyone appreciated. It's a 125-Watt, but no details of lumens online. I'd get the red and blue spectrums for swapping if they're decent lights:

Thanks WOW mate, that's great advice, and also keeps me back and planning when I just want to just jump straight in. I have one old contact, long time no see, and all my fault, but I'm going to have to give him a call, otherwise I don't think I'm going to be able to come here until I have something started, it's too much of a tease, ha! He always could get a bit of great bud or hash and I don't need much.What's up natto, glad to have you here.

Great tips about being prepared - I'm in danger of getting carried away - and thanks so much for the warm and encouraging welcome, it's very much appreciated
I guess it's still good and cheap still up north, just like it used to be when I was living there many moons ago. Always top stuff at a good price. Those northern lads didn't mess around and knew their stuff. Good days
Cheers!
