Back in the spring of 2019 i bought some Kitchen Sink from a local dispensary and there was a dam seed in it. So for shits and giggles I threw it in a cup of dirt watered it and it sprouted. So I grew it for a month in a window waiting for warm weather. I then transplanted it to a 2.5 gallon container and let it grow for another 2 months. I forget why but instead of transplanting it into the ground I dug a hole and buried the pot instead - and then it started to bloom - flowers were quite large - well I read up on checking trichomes, drying and curing and when that mid October day arrived i harvested it. Turned out to be fairly good flower both taste and effects, and it produced enough for 5 months. Hmmm five months to produce 5 months worth of supply - I then purchased two 400 watt lamps, and all the other necessities to start growing. I was hooked 😈

@binger Epic!! Once you have got to harvest once, you never look back! Imagine buying a 20 bag after that lol

I remember I was about 17, found some bagseed, nicked a few cfls from parents storage, spare wire, plugs. Early internet taught me wiring. In my bedroom cupboard, black binliners taped to door to stop light. Foil around a cardboard box. Never made it to flower. But watching it sprout and grow, was a different feeling to watching veg or flowers from seed with my dad, it was exciting to see veg and flowers grow but I got a real tingle from seeing weed for the first time I thought (I wanna see more of this) I tried 2 more times, but never made it flower lol. Since then always tried to make it happen where I've lived, either indoor or outside, but never had much success. Then during COVID (smoke, smoke,smoke lol) was when I really got serious, lights tent filter etc. Then I found HOHG podcast 6 months before I joined percys and they keep me inspired to keep growing. I grow with constant paranoia being in a illegal state, but coming on Percy's most nights helps me forget what I'm doing isn't wrong even though I could lose everything if caught. More stories of how we got into this I feel!!! Share people!

I live the life I love, I love the life I live.

Been a keen gardener for over 50 years. My wife needed relief of some unpleasant symptoms that conventional medicine was unable to help. My research lead me to cannabis. I needed material I could trust and that meant growing it myself. I found the whole process of growing the plant fascinating and can't see me stopping anytime soon 👍 

Time to grow old disgracefully.
