Hi forum!

I am not a newbie smoker but it has been many many yeas since I partook.
I have some pain that keeps me from sleeping at night and being fully active during the day and started to explore smoke again over the last year.
I quickly found that I am very sensitive (as far as taste and smell) to mold, pine, flavors of strains, places dried and so on so I am now becoming a
connoisseur (or hope to) and grow my own.

I do not have a green thumb and so I have quite a bit to learn and scared to death I will kill anything I try to grow. I think I need an online tutor. :)

Glad to be here, looking forward to learning and any support I can get.

Hey ARMH,
My spouse has some of the same allergies that you do and this is one of the few medicines that actually help. Most of the crap from big pharma do nothing for her, or actually do the opposite of what is wanted. Glad medical is legal here, it just takes so long to get an appointment with a MD who is willing to say yes.
First post but I have done a lot of reading and am using what I learned to get my lettuce, peppers, squash and bok choi going indoors while I wait for her to get her card. Then I can grow legally and not even pay taxes because it is for my spouse! Too bad her card is fairly expensive per year, plus appointments every six months at the Doc's.
I do not partake but hope to see it legal for recreational use everywhere. I would much rather hang around someone smoking pot than slamming beer and whiskey to excess.

Hi I'm a NEWBIE. In Nam we called them F@#&*&% NEWGUYS (FNGs). In Vietnam at 20 years old was my first experience with Pot. Youcan imagine it being cut, dried and smoked in a matter of a few days. From thenon I wanted to experience that first buzz as many times as I could. As you knowit’s hard to relive that first time for anything.
That didn'thappen again until I was stationed in Hawaii for 4 years. Maui Wowie, KonaGold, Kauai Electric just a toothpick size joint would make 4 smokers gigglyhappy.
All my othersmoke has been bought in bag form. Sometimes full of seeds others more leafthan bud or that dreaded stuff from Mexico.
I retired fromthe Army after 20 years. Tried punching a time clock for a few years, not forme! Then became that SOB Truck Driver you all cuss from time to time. That wasfor me, nobody looking over my shoulder, no time clock, doing it my way just aslong as I picked up and delivered on time. Hard and lonely lifestyle but I’m aloner anyway. After 19 years as a (Freight Relocation Manager) Truck Driver. Lifethrows me a curve ball, I had a Stoke. Now I take pills for my depression,anxiety, blood pressure, etc. Etc... not able to work anymore. Thankfully, I’mable to get around and be independent.
I’ve always saidthat when I no longer have to worry about drug test and my children are grownand independent I would again “DO IT MY WAY.” Brother that time has come. I’m moving to asemi-remote place in two months. Not a legal state for growing or smoking. Butyou can’t have everything.
Oh, I’m 65 yearson this planet, and divorced. Not a shout out just tired of outsiders and all theirbaggage. My Good friends call me Poppa Smurf because I’m older than them. I chose Chicken Hauler on this site justcause.

Smoke’em if you’vegot them. In a few months I will be growing my own.

Hey all!

I thought I'd finally jump in the waters around here after sunning on the beach for the last few months. I've been hanging out around a few different sites but this one has been the most useful so I decided to join up with ya all! :hug:

I've been running a perpetual grow with my signature setup for about a year now, following fairly closely to a lot of Uncle Ben's methods, adopted to my conditions of course...when I first started, it was just about as primitive as it gets using whatever I had on hand, and learning how to work around what I couldn't get, which is where I work best :)

What started out as a veg 'space' & bud cabinet rotating a couple plants has recently expanded into 16-20 plants in separate veg & bud rooms rotating 6-8 plants at a time, cropping 2 plants every 2-3 weeks. Yields aren't consistently hitting the 2oz/plant I've been striving for but I'm almost there. Initial yields started out at 48g/plant dry wt. with my highest yield at 72g from one, averaging about 50-54g/plant. Sativa-strains....my indicas avg 1oz... :(

Currently, Im sittin here smoking some of the Obama I just cropped a few days ago {#4, 2nd run, 8 plants] I am thoroughly disappointed with the 22g dry wt cropped from the initial run, i'd like to see at least 1oz/plant from the indicas, but DAMN!! the smoke is really nice!! It's a new addition to my lineup and definitely a keeper...just got to figure out how best to train these 2 new Obama clones I'm vegging!

/end ramble

Hey I'm new and Irish too! Well Irish descent anyway. Are you growing in Ireland? Because when I hopped the pond the idea of smoking/growing pot seemed like something that was generally ridiculed =/
