Dude, I totally get it. I go through about a zip a month which around here costs $260-320 on the street. Let's just say that with the fixed income I'm on, that's pretty much impossible without huge sacrifices. And all for weed that's usually decent but anyone's guess as to strain. Being able to grow my own is HUGE. I can produce that same oz a month for way less, and so far my bud just keeps getting louder and louder. I can't wait to see what the Mephisto plants I got going now are gonna look like.
Good luck with the Hubbabubba, btw. Today was Day 22 & Day 10 for my Double Grapes. Love seeing all the Mephisto gear growing around here.
