Hey everyone. I’m a new grower in Minnesota. I am currently in my first grow season.

I dubbed my plant Sir. Buddington the 1st, and he is a survivor for sure. I managed to plant him upside down. Used a light that made him stretch about 7” tall, and then our cats decided to sit on him, and then chew on him which forced me to take him outside where he has sat since late May.

This is my first time growing any plants and I must admit it has taught me so much. I don’t even smoke pot, but I am in love with growing it.

Well Hell, I finally came across someone else that loves to grow but doesn’t smoke.
I used to smoke daily for years but gave it up. I grew way back in my college days and decided to get back into it once it was legalized in my State.
I probably spend too much time on my plants but it’s a very therapeutic hobby…for me at least.
Your grow looks good……you’re a natural.

You don't smoke either? I was expecting to be the only one lol.

I find growing it vey therapeutic as well. I am a combat veteran with PTSD, and I have heard that consuming it helps a lot of people, but it definitely does not help me.

Oh man that was an eye opener for me because I'm the opposite way, normally high strung and brain flies too fast for thoughts to be intelligible. I smoke and I s l o w d o w n.

Im very impressed by your Mr. Buddington

Might want to change it's name to Miss Buddington unless you're looking for a bunch of seed :P Sounds like a pretty resilient plant you have there.

Thanks! I'm doing well so far, just have to make it through to the end.

Yes, I get paranoia followed by panic attacks. Recently, I tried a teeny tiny nibble off the corner of an edible and after 10 minutes all I could taste was regret.

As for Mr. Buddington, I am hoping his disguise will keep the pollen away lol.

Oh wow I bet the edible was worse for you then. Those seem to pack a more intense punch.

I bet you have a bestie that will love your hobby then? What you planning on doing with the end product? You should have the recipient do the harvest. Lol. Make them work for it.
