Well AFN it's about time I said hello.Iv been lurking about the site for quite some time,enjoying the grows and info.I havent posted sooner as I haven't been actively growing and without A journal to show my knowledge Iv often felt any advise i had to offer would be inappropriate.
I am 43 years old and I have done a fare bit of growing over the years. However only a short stint indoors before I had to take a forced vacation when my long time childhood friend, and brother in-law got caught f#cking up and decided his freedom was worth more than mine.I did the only thing I could. I plead guilty at the first arraignment throwing myself on the mercy of the court.The cops were pressuring me to tell on others.So I took it out of their hands By pleading guilty. Because i had little history and no violent charges i was offered a choice 18 months or 5 years Probation. I took the 18 months.I have been out for two years I have moved to a new state well up into the east coast mountains in the usa. So deep in a forest I cant find anywhere close that gets enough sun to grow.I cant even have a vegi garden because I dont get more than three hours sunlight anywhere in my yard.
not that I would be able to physically do the work in a garden But I have always loved growing things.
I have been suffering from chronic sciatica for close to 5 years. For along time while it could get bad it was manageable.The doctors wanted to prescribe narcotics but I am A recovered addict.I made some poor choice's in my younger days and I will never again be dependent on any substance like I was back then. I dont care if a doctor says it's ok to be a junky, it's not.Thing is tho in the last year the pain has been truly horrendous.My quality of life has plummeted to new lows as i often cant walk let alone work.I am still blessed though. I have a great son who helps me alot,and I have a good physical therapist that has been helping me for free as often as not. she's been a godsend.
Well she was the one that suggested smoking my old old friend for relief.I never really meant to quit smoking herb It just sorta happened.I smoked a little when I first got out,but then I moved and I didn't know anyone and after having just served a prison sentence I was scared to try and meet someone.I still dont know anyone, but I have decided to dust off my green thumb and give it a go again.The only person that will ever know is my son and once i have a camera you good folks out here in internet land.If i get caught again Im screwd.If I dont grow and the pain gets worse I give in and go on the narcotics and loose myself,and im still screwd.So ill grow and just be extra carfull.One of the saddest thing i can think of tho is growing great bud and sharing it with no one.But if i turn up with good bud everyone that knows me will know I grew it. So smoke alone it has to be.
Auto's have appealed to me since they first came out.Even when everyone said they were crap I knew the potential for something special was there and I never had any doubts they would come into their own.I still dont think their full potential has been realized.Im in the process of putting a cab together. I had intended to wait until I could put everything together picture perfect.money is tight!But a young grower here made me decide to give it a go with CFL's until I can get everything together for my hid lit cab.Thanks Nood's :thumbs: anyway if y'all would like to get a taste of what I was doing a year or so before I got poped you can take a look @ http://forum.grasscity.com/grow-journals/158512-bcs-multi-flow-ppp-satori.html it's an old thread and the pics are long gone but it's abit of history.I doubt ill get a journal up this go around but I will by next for sure.
Sorry for this long winded intro I didnt mean to let it ramble for so long.
