This is my story

[Grae76]

I’m new to forums but we’ll give it a try. I’m 76 years old (today). I first started partaking in 1968. Weed was probably 10 to 15 dollars then. I was in the Orient at that time I started there with landrace Vietnamese and more often Cambodian Red. I came back from the Orient in 1069 and that’s when I I I had to pay I continued down that path until roughly1985. At which time Itook a hiatus of 25 year. Fast forward to 2020 A lot of time in my hands. Didn’t like the high price so decided to grow

I might add I have been growing now for 400+ days. I have a Spider Farmer 3 x 3 x 6 tent, a 2x 4 x 5 tent and a 2 x 2 x 4 tent. Led lights fox farm nutrient inocean forest soil with amendments. Liquid Seaweed Backstrap, banana tea, cal mag in R/O water.

Right now the little tent (seedlings) is empty In the 2 x 4 tent is 7 plants in veg. (4 Blue Lemon Thai x White 99)Also in that tent are are 3 Blueberry Muffins x Tahoe OG also in veg. And one Blueberry Muffins mother (technically I guess)

 

[Grae76]

I guess I also failed to mention to the best of my knowledge all the girls (and boys) are F1’s. A buddy of mine grew the parents.

Welcome Grae76! You got some good growing there it sounds!

I started my newfound/revisited hobby, believe it or not, 419 days ago. I know that because I’m so anal as to keep a running count ongoing on my desk calandras. Even I think it’s dumb, but I keep doing it.

 

[bluter]

you'll fit right in. pretty much everyone is an adult here. i can even be persuaded to act like one once in a while.

 

[Grae76]

I ain’t claiming adulthood here. I’m sure that a whole lot of people would agree with me on that point.

to the forum @Grae76 ...according to your intro and just to clarify, you came back to the states in 1069 huh ...hell, I was just a we lad, being born in 67' ...just giving you chit

I might add I have been growing now for 400+ days. I have a Spider Farmer 3 x 3 x 6 tent, a 2x 4 x 5 tent and a 2 x 2 x 4 tent. Led lights fox farm nutrient inocean forest soil with amendments. Liquid Seaweed Backstrap, banana tea, cal mag in R/O water.

I use fox farms too, but tap water is better depending on PH of said water doesn't go past about 7.3...that's what mine is anyhow and my girls are lovely, you can take a walk in garden and see

and just to clarify, you came back to the states in 1069 huh

@Grae76 , I too would like to welcome you to the forum and a happy birthday. As @Tokin Roll said, you are not the oldest, I'm up on you by one year and a few months. When people ask my age, I respond by saying that I was born the day Adolf Hitler supposedly committed suicide. One rascal died and another was born.
You got me beat though by a couple years when you started smoking Gods gift, it was the early 70's for me.
Take care my friend and I'm looking to seeing you around the watering hole again.

 

[PotChimp]

You didn't by any chance bring a few of those Cambodian Red seeds back home with you? I wouldn't mind a few.
Welcome Grae76.

Welcome aboard! Glad to see another member of the grey haired army. Similar story (except for the exotic locations), Cali kid here. I took a 30 year break due to work, and am back in the games after retirement. Feel free to ask questions, great bunch of people here.

Welcome from SE Asia! I’m a ‘little bit’ younger than you! You ever come back out this way? A business partner of mine has been in Cambodia for 20 years plus but is about to move to Vietnam. Meant to be a tech wonderland these days.
Multi tent multi grow, I’m trying the same but not even in my 50th day of growing yet! Its a great place to learn new stuff - you want to try something its a racing certainty someone’s done it before and can help you out.
Some lovely people here.

Enjoy!
