Autos so far

I love growing Autoflowers now, it's so much fun. The best part is the instability, they can be absolutely wild. That's why I keep the strange ones around, the ugly ones, the ones nobody would pick for their soccer team.
Beginning of this year I grew a Banana purple Haze or something like that, from FastBuds and it was absolutely insane. I grew it in a 10L DWC and a 50W blurple COB coming in a foot away from the side and a 65W quantum board a foot above and natural light coming in from a window, yup, that's how it rolled. Using bionova one part Autoflower mix. It looked like Christmas Tumbleweed. Had bud sites all over the stems and twisted itself into a round ball. I didn't want it to end. It was amazing. My fat ass was running down the driveway when I got home from work to see how my monster was doing every day.

I didn't go online with it, because I've had too much people trying to tell me what to do in my life already, too old. I bought the gear, I bought the seed, I'm paying the bills and I'm smoking the bud. Just didn't have the energy to get in discussions about it. Buds turned out good. It was about here I decided I was tired of pickle ball and since I was now separated I could get a "real grow" again.

Back before Facebook on a forum I did the mistake of posting a bit of fun I was having with a photo and people on there started coming at me like it was an actual human child I was experimenting on (I was giving it 8-hour light cycles just to see what would happen). So yeah, I was quickly a real piece of 💩 there, and I started trying to explain myself but I got attacked on how I treated these fragile beautiful life forms in an unfair matter. One user said that "he" hoped I was reborn as a seed and sold to a psychopath like me so karma would like even out or some shit.
So I honestly thought to myself fuck these clowns and now that forum doesn't seem to exist anymore or is maybe on Facebook which I am not.

I'm not good in English either. From a general, conversational standpoint I can do it, but I can't explain my train of thought properly in written words or people intentionally misunderstand so they can get to show their knowledge and bleh. I love talking to people, maybe less writing with people, I don't know.

I found an old inspection photo from the blurple setup 😅

Most forums I've visited were toxic, can't imagine what Facebook is like. Here it's nice to be able to ask a 'dumb' question and get an answer instead of being called an idiot.
