Well, I just spent a week reading some of the Grow Journals, and had to join the site. Couldn't resist commenting on some of the excellent advice and pictorials!
I am on my first "solo" grow. Bought some EasyRyder AF feminized seeds, and planted one of them (I'm in temporary digs, and hope to move to the Pacific Northwest by the time spring rolls around, so didn't want to get TOO involved with it, but get started anyways). She's about 2-3/4 inches now, under a F15T8 6500K fluoro, in a large pot. Decided to go ahead and pot her in her big pot so I wouldn't have to stress her much by transplanting. I know, but I'm keeping her low budget for now, until the move. She's about done putting out her second leaf set, after being in the soilless mix for 14 days. I know it's because she's been having fun creating her roots in such an abundant pot!
My ex-b/f used to grow some huge bagseed plants (7'-8'), and I was his assistant. We split up two years ago, but he's taught me well. I told him what I was doing, and he was gracious to share some of his stash, and I have gotten some of those started, as well. He did his last grow hydroponically, and has a helluva green thumb, but he's not in a position to grow now, due to health problems. So, I'm going to grow some of his, and share with him the finished product, if I'm lucky enough. That'll help him with his pain, and he can distribute the rest as he sees fit.
Once I get to my new digs in the Pacific Northwest, I will have 40 acres of land and several outbuildings, on an off-the-grid location, and the cash, to really go at this professionally. The state I'm moving to is also pro-MMJ, so I hope to gain caregiver status for several patients, thereby making my business legal.
Wish me luck as I endeavor for better things!
