Hey THC farmers, my name is Andrew. I live here in the beautiful Central Valley of CALIFORNIA. I am married with 2 beautiful children. I recently built my own grow cabinet in the hopes of growing my own medicine!!!

A lil bit about me and my past, I left home for the Marine Corps 2 weeks after I graduated high school in 2004. I spent 8 yrs traveling the world meeting People that have shaped and changed my life along with being deployed to Iraq as a truck driver and Afghanistan as an Explosive Ordnance Disposal Technician(bomb tech). After my time in the Marines, my family and I moved back to the great Central Valley of California.

I am here to learn and grow. I have a love for marijuana that I believe I share with a lot of you. I have been diagnosed with PTSD and a host of other issues both physical and mental that have been effecting me for years now since my deployment to Afghanistan. Marijuana is the only remedy I have found that allows me to be ME!!

I am also here to hold out my hand to anyone who needs it. I believe I am here for something larger than the normal 9-5 job. I want to take my skills and love for the plant to become my everyday life and grow. I have a significant amount of financial backing to take a small operation and expand it significantly along with the labor needed to grow. I am looking for the right person who shares my beliefs and passion to grow.

Thank you to all who read this post. I will post pics of my current grow to this thread

These were a couple weeks later. The biggest problem I had with this gro is keeping a consistent 75f but when it's in the shed and during the winter it's gonna happen. Eventually I will have a space where I can control the grow conditions more precisely.

The second photo was of the cabinet at week 3 of flower. I went thru and trimmed the girls of their monster fan leaves and took out the small branches that were behind in development so that the plant can focus on the bigger colas and develop evenly.

Not too shabby. Got you some monsters there. The more you grow the more you'll learn different training techniques. You'll be able to keep that canopy a lil more even. But great job brother. Glad to see someone in the service turning to this natural medicine, not all that pharmaceutical bs they try to crash down your throat... I've had a couple buddies come back and basically get turned to zombies from the meds...
