After much debate on whether to join a forum after years of absence on forums of all types, I've decided to join the Farm, and am real glad to be here!
About me;
I used to grow in organic soil stealth/indoors in Chicago for years in the 00's. I went through various known euro strains, as well as genetics from the more common seedbanks, before landing on Subcool's gear, and getting to know him a little on GP and RIU, which were the 2 forums I was most active on "back in the day." After finding a few phenos of his Vortex that I really liked, I had my entire 1/BR apt dedicated to growing, with a tent for veg, and a clone area in the kitchen, hehe. I was starting to get interested in learning the art of breeding my own strains, but never quite got that far -- what started as a passion had grown into a farm, and with it came some unsavory "friends of friends," and after 1 REALLY close call, and taking a big boy job that gave random drug testing and took all my time, I had to hang it up indefinitely.
Fast forward to now, and I'm a thru-hiking vegan vagabond living in CO, and I'm up to my old tricks again; my current landlord/roommate smokes trees with me on occasion, and let me grow some outdoor in my garden out back, and I got the bug again. I currently have 3 ILGM Maui Wowie going in 10 gallon fabric pots of a homemade vegan compost/living soil mix, and they're BEASTS. I'm thinking that if I provide my landlord with the Kind for free, he may let me bring the party inside for the snowy winter, and use some of the grow stuff I've been carrying around all these years.
I really like learning about this plant, and I honestly enjoy caring after it as much as I do using its medicine, which is saying something. I really enjoy using various techniques to train the plants, and feeding the soil to let nature do what it do on the intimate level that home-growing allows. I specifically have taken a shine to growing outdoors, as I always knew that the yield, as well as terp and pheno expressions from proper sun-grown, are where it's at.
I have questions about particular breeders and genetics and such, which I will post in the proper place after utilizing the search function, lolll. Lookin' forward to shared passion. Thank you!
