I've been posting here for a month or so - and am documenting a couple of ladies I'm growing (a Berry Ryder and a Hobbit), but thought I'd make a (not very!) formal introduction.
I've enjoyed our favored flower for nearly 30 years (and by that admission, acknowledge I'm no longer a spring chicken - ha ha!) - but haven't, until recently, tried my hand at growing my own.
Last year I acquired a few photo beans from a friend - and put a small guerrilla grow (hence the user name) out in the woods. Unfortunately, my lack of knowledge in what makes a cannabis plant happy - combined with a very wet stretch of weather as the flowers neared their finish, resulted in a very limited yield.
However - my curiosity and interest was piqued in a big way.
Subsequent reading on the subject introduced me to the auto flowering varieties - and finally to this fine site.
I have a number of hobbies and interests (working a 50% camp schedule leaves me with a good deal of free time in a calendar year!) - and am a member of quite a number of forums on quite a number of topics.
Very, very few of them are as well moderated - or populated by so very many helpful, friendly and polite members - as this one is. I'd like to take this opportunity to tip my hat to all the members and moderators that make this forum such an informative and enjoyable place to spend some time.
Kudos to all of you - and especially to those members that have so pleasantly helped me in my first bumbling attempts at this fascinating pursuit (a420er and Swampman, in particular).
Anyway - I'm certainly enjoying my journey (even if the learning curve is a steep one for me - ha ha!) - and I look forward to documenting my future efforts (and reading of yours!).
Next spring I'll be returning to my guerrilla garden with a few auto beans and a little more experience garnered from a couple of indoor winter grows - and a tub full of knowledge garnered from this forum - to see if I can't do a better job out there.
