Hello, newbie here. I can't believe I spelled Callisto wrong when I signed up. Callisto is one of Jupiter's four moons that are visible (only two visible tonight) with a pair of binoculars. Check them out. Jupiter is the brightest object, looking east in the early evening and the distant-star-looking things right next to it are its moons. Enough about my moniker...
I was a stoner from Michigan back in the late 70s and early 80s. I joined the military where it was not wise to be a regular smoker. I blazed when I came home on leave and a few times when the opportunity presented itself while not on leave. There was a point three of four years into my 21 total that I almost went too far. I was popped on a pee test, and though we typically waited 4-6 weeks for those results, I immediately went downtown and had myself tested. That private test came back positive, so I was certain I was toast. Not so. After that scare, I stuck to a leave-only policy...pretty much.
I was stationed in Korea in '96 when I saw a documentary by Peter Jennings, bless his soul, about people that privately grow. Ever since then I wanted to try, but I've just never mustered enough courage to do it. I constantly fantasize about having been a pot farmer all these years and having grown the choicest herb. My current situation just doesn't really lend itself to the lifestyle, that is, kids and a wife that wouldn't be supportive. I can't blame her, it wouldn't be wise to sacrifice the pretty decent salary I draw. I'm retired from the military service now, but I work as a government employee, and would still be unable to smoke very often. As it is, it's been well over a year since I partook, though I still think about it all the time.
It was just about a month ago that I googled "marijuana buds" images. I filtered on large pictures only, and looked at every page of pictures that google offered. Then I began clicking on the associated links, and that's what brought me here. I became a member so I could see the pictures people posted. I loved Stink Bud's 'Pound every three weeks' instructional. He's big into med mj. I live in FL where they are considering putting med mj on the ballot. Should it become legal, maybe I could become a provider, if not a patient. I don't suppose the military in the legal states allows their members to be patients.
Anyway, glad to be here. Currently, I'm waiting for Dillweed's harvest in his Summer 09 grow journal. Check it out if you haven't already.
