Hello fellow Growers, my name is 420ramrod. I would like to Welcome everyone to my first official grow journal.
I'm going to title this journal
"JACK FLASH" hydro SOG grow powered by "Blue Planet Nutes" thanks to my new friends at "BPN"
I have recently become a proud member of and have been greeted with open arms by the community.
I would personally like to say thank you to all my new friends. Those of you who have taken interest in my quest for knowledge and took the time to help me succeed in being the best grower I can Be! Learning from my mistakes is one thing. Having this kind of expert support at my finger tips has expedited my knowledge in ways I cant even explain. Only people who grow what we grow and do what we do can understand the trials and tribulations that we endure. So many people take things for granted these days. If they only knew how much love and passion we put into growing our precious medicinal plants.
"Gimmie gimmie gimmie", they dont want to be bothered with whether or not you had a nute def., pest invasion, fungas or you dint give enough time to flush. Most are concerned with how much its going set them back. Not thinking about any of the things that we typically worry about like base strain, smell, height, node structure, bud structure, branching, good for cloning, nute selection and strength, LOL! inside joke for those that know me! etc.... the list goes on and on.
I feel like sometimes the sanctuary of being behind closed doors all the time can make the simple things in life seem pretty awesome! These are some things that would make up for the perfect day in my Dreamland. I would hang with some Good Friends, smokin Good Bud, listening to Good Music, while having a Good skate session, then eating Good food and of course start and finish this day with Great sex! LMAO! I said it was my dreamland because I'm single! I have all the other things pretty much covered, LMAO!! Well now that you know a little about me.
I invite you to join me in learning all the the in's and out's, right's and wrong's, things to do and not to do. This will be a serious but laid back journal for expert/master level growers to join in and educate all of the beginners out there that are like me. I want people take this seriously and learn as much as possible from those of you whom have paid there dues and have paved the way for US! Since first joining I have started aligning myself with some of the best growers on this site and I will be personally sending each one them and invite to join me in making this journal one for the "archives"! I want people to be looking this journal up and referencing it well after its completed.
