Same scene with newbies today as 10 years ago!
I have not been on grow forums for over 10 years.
ater a week here. I will say this.

for one great info here, but be careful, put some thought into the source.

Number two most Important, giving the plant too much food and light and love.
Will smother your plant. Will not make it grow faster. Let it grow at its own speed, stop playing God.

keep it simple stupid, back off the plant let it grow.
the major deficiency is trying to be a world class pot grower without the experience and years to know
the difference. You need to grow and learn man it’s a living thing. There’s no short cuts.
Failure brings success.
Remember this speed kills, chemicals produce unbalances.
Be aware of both.

just smoked some of my skunk and Mazar cross as you can tell.

The whole legalization scene is kinda making things weird.
it is more important Now to be your own producer
They will lose and ruin the genetics in there big box stores,That are coming.
Here in the states anyway total charade it being legal.
They are taking over every hot selling territory.

growers say there harvest sits in a warehouse in plastic rubber mates.
by the time it hits the shelve, its half the quality of what it was when they grew it with love!
heard this stated more then once.they do not know how to store weed these Wall Street types.
growers letting there plants die instead of harvesting,
because of all the bs to get it to market!

in other words, people coming out of the wood work to grow weed it’s legal yea!
but all the big places push feminized seeds and auto.
I grow regular seeds to supply myself,save genetics ,I still have and use feminized once in a while to fill in a gap.
but falling in love with feminized seed is a big box store trap.

if all the early growers could have grown feminized we would not have much to choice from.
over time this will happen in big box stores. Only what they push will they sell.
save now! Absolutely no doubt!

happy to be back, good Growers here sharing the love!
Big thing of mine is the healing powers of this plant.
This plant scares a lot of business people because it can do it all.

Big pharmaceutical companies have nightmares about the possibilities of all the CBD uses.
it is why they are playing so many games right now, killing off small growers.
this might be the must dangerous time for this plant. With governments and big businesses Hovering everywhere.
big companies buying huge shares of certain companies. Then manipulating the stock its crazy.

At this pace when the smoke clears should still be one hell of a black market.
where a lot of us are more comfortable. I do not trust governments with my healthcare and certainly not my weed.

this right here is why i will always operate as a guerilla. fuck a certification or license or inspections or testing. the one thing i've learned after three plus decades on this planet is if govt or big business gets involved in anything, they fuck it up on a scale bigger than what anyone can even begin to conceive. how did my mother say it... they could fuck up a wet dream.

this place has its ebbs and its flows. we get seasonal waves of new growers, most don't cut it here because they either don't have a culture fit or like many first timers, they try, they fail or end up with subpar product, and disappear. or, i've a pretty strong creeping suspicion of this one and these ones i'm referring to now have become pretty easy to spot, are underage (or grown ass adult children) living with mommy and daddy and they get caught. if one can weather the storms, this place ain't so bad.

first showed up here myself sometime around when gypsy nirvana lost his shit at icmag and went crazy on a ton of breeders there. lots of fall out. had been there for a long while after a stint at GC, and before that the original OG forums. fuck, i miss OG still. was a fantastic place. this place was comparable for a good while but many of the greats that once tread here disappeared sometime about a decade ago and now some of us neo-old timers are having similar impacts. nothing like the sorts of jackmayoffer, seamaiden, tnelz, gnome, etc. list too long to write.

glad to have ya though Dye. buddy of mine, his last name is Dye. good cat when he's not crawling at the bottom of a bottle.

Only can drink so much, but some of us try. To figure that amount out.

Me too. Started sweeping the parking lot. They gave me a key and a meeting. Did that for years. Always interesting and rewarding, from people flopping on the floor Seizing two wet drunks needing to be dealt with forcibly. Vallejo California. Oldest continuously operating fellowship west of the Mississippi. A good place to learn. Moved away, got hitched, bought a place, and drifted away from the meetings. But never forget about that sleeping tiger that is within us.

I went to a rehab once to check on my brothers, brother in law is that right anyway,
Was in the nut house on a stay and had the ddTs like I never saw before.

Said why is that man hiding behind the door waving a 10 dollar bill.
Said it over and over sweating screaming seeing shit was amazing.
Tied down to the bed not pretty man.
I saw a lot of sick people in my life., from alcohol not one from cannabis
