Welcome New Members! Read this before posting!

Howdy folks! I am a life long cannabis aficionado and have been growing for over 40 years. Back in the 70s there was mostly brick Mexican, usually completely seeded and nasty! My Uncle was getting amazing bud around that time...ahhh Columbian, both the red and gold and it was unlike anything back then. We had plenty of local grown "domestic" but always was cheap and poor quality, so I took seeds from the Columbian and grew them in the corn....it turned out better than expected and my friends loved it...thus began my life long love of growing herb! Thank you Ed and Mel, the Growers guide to Marijuana was my bible and l learned SO much from reading it. Fast forward 40 years and I can hardly keep up with all the new techniques and gear but still want to learn it all and I believe rollitup is a great forum to further my growing knowledge. I am blown away by all the great new strains available these days and love to test and phenohunt. Strains that are now pushing 30%? Damn I'm in!!!

New Guy here. Actually, old guy here. Haven't grown since the 1970's. I stopped when people around me started having legal issues. I saw my first marijuana plant in my buddy Jimbo's window sometime in 1968. I have smoked so much ditch weed over the decades that I still fart Paraquat. Legal marijuana at $400 an oz. is beyond my grasp. Besides that it pisses me off. You know the drill, $8 five-finger bags, walked 10 miles to school every day(uphill both ways). My grow expertise, if it exists at all, is in cactus and succulents. I have an interest in evolutionary biology, and some formal and informal training there. I collect Aloes and Haworthias. I love to live in the desert and I never expect to live anywhere else. I am listening. These kids and their marijuana.

Hi, I’ve returned to recreational weed & am using a vaporiser called Arizer Solo 2 & loving the healthier & different effects... Might be interested in growing for personal use, but not sure how to go about it... any help appreciated... UK based.

Hello Roll It Up. What with the new Cali laws today I've decided to get back in the game in a small way. I signed up a few day ago and have been trying to plan my room and strain types.
I've been a toker since '68 and have a few grows under my belt, but none recently. My last grow was with Stinkbuds Aero/NTF techniques and it worked out pretty well, so I'll modify that and try a SOG this time as I'll be height limited.

Glad to be back in the game.

Yo, I've been reading threads on this forum for a long time and it was just time to sign up. I live in south america and i'm currently on my second grow; them girls are starting to flower, so i'll probably put up some pics soon. Glad to be here, toke on brothers.

What's up growers. Greetings from the Chesapeake bay region. Currently running my third round of Ed Rosenthal from sensi seeds. Future rounds coming are CitrusFarmer and Humble Pie (DVG) , Cooper Chem and Purple Outlaw (greenpoint seeds). This sure is a lonely hobby in a unfriendly state .Hope to make some grower friends here.

Hello, to everyone. My Name is Mayo, pronounced Mah-Yoh like Cinco de Mayo. I like to watch plants grow. I like to talk about cannabis. But my friends eventually get tired of it. hopefully I can quench my thirst for knowledge and discovery. I love to find out exceptions to the rule and learning vicariously.

Hi, stoked to be here. Growing organic outdoor at 8000' always looking for new info!

Glad to be a part of rollitup organization! Thanks everyone!

From BC, but living in Spain. Here to research LEDs and maybe meet some folks. Cheers!

Greetings RIU community! Hoping to learn as much as I can and share what information I have about this powerful plant.

Welcome everyone to RIU!

Hello. I would like to intruduce my self. I grow little but I mainly work with oil and hash. I read this forum long time ago but don't participate in it and the reason is that I'm not native English and typing is not my favorite, but I read lots of info and want to share specially in hash and oil threads.

Hello! I've been growing a few years, not quite perfected any particular technique so here to hopefully learn new things and help others. Currently trying to get a good scrog going indoors with some autos despite it not being recommended; turning out good so far at least. Welcome to everyone else new as well~

Damn i missed this thread first go around, over-anxious i guess to get on board and learn a bunch of stuff from the experts.
Im a new hobby grower in Nova Scotia Canada and became convinced to give er a go after a good friend fought thru 3 years of cancer. The only pain relief he had was from home-grown oil. I could see the difference this natural medicene made on his life and figered i better get off my arse and get growing.
I grew 3 White Widows last year as an experiment and was pleasently surprised how well they did. So now I'm just waiting for the snow to go out the woods so i can get digging holes.
I look forward to reading all the great advice on here !

Good day fellow growers. New here but not new to growing. Started with a 400 watt HPS in 2006 and now run 4K watts in flower in a not so legal place. Looking forward to reading your threads.

Hey all, Chris here. I'm looking to become a designated grower. I'm in the London, ON region. I'd like to chat with some established DGs. Looking for a mentor or to partner up.
