I bet you all don't see a lot of people on here who've never smoked weed before . I've never smoked anything (cigarettes included) but hopefully in a few months here I'll be able to give it a shot! I enjoy gardening, the regular outdoor kind, so the process will be fun anyway. But the main reason I want to do it is to see what the medical benefits will be like. I have a muscular lower back problem that I mostly keep under control with exercises and stretching, but when it flares up it is a major problem. I've gotten percocet's prescribed, but those wreak havoc on me. I swear I have withdrawal symptoms after taking them for just a couple of days.
Anyway, enough about my problems Here's what I've got going so far.
Species - Big Bud from amsterdammarijuanaseeds.com - I believe they are a sponsor of 420magazine so I hope they deliver! Still waiting on the mailman.
Soil/Pots - I read "Promix" was a halfway decent option that you can mix with perlite and a little bit of vermiculite. Menards had a few different kinds of Promix, so I got two different ones. I'll post more info/pics about this stuff later. I think I'm going to use some left over pots from some bushes I put in last year, They look to me to be 4 gallon maybe.
Lights/Grow Space - See pics. Lights currently consist of 4x 26 watt cfl in garage reflectors, split with Y adapters for 2 per reflector. Color temp 6500k, 6500 lumen each. will swap in 2700k bulbs later. Do I need more? I think I might add another reflector/splitter/pair of bulbs before too long. I also have mylar sheets on order for the 3 walls and I'll make a door of sorts for the 4th side out of some cardboard.
