So I figured it would be high time to start my own journal. Most people start when they get the equipment and seeds then germination, veg, ect. But I figured why not start with the basic idea, perfect it, then move on to the realistic and actual design and conceptualization. So first I'll introduce myself, give a general time-line, then describe all the equipment, layout, ect. Hopefully pictures will start to come in around the first week of March and we will move on from there.
First, I know I am brand knew here-by name, but I've been floating around for about 8-10 months soaking up information, ideas, ect. So here is a brief run-down. The idea to grow was first thrown around by myself and a few friends as we sat around a camp fire and smoked. We, like many, had lavish ideas of pounds and pounds of pot but in reality we were young, dumb, and eager. So this was when I started to research the growing of it, and also realized I was 18 and had no place to grow.
Then I went off to College at a large State School - you thought I was going to tell you ehh? nah; for my own security of mind - and lived in the dorm. We would smoke every weekend, then it became every other day. Then I bough an 1/2 oz of straight Trainwreck and we went crazy. It became my life and then one weekend we decided to stop. We had about 10gs left and myself and a friend said we were going to smoke it in one night. We started on the 3hr drive home. By the time we got back we smoked around 12 bowls and 5 more through a vape. Then we went to a friends land and hit it hard. We were 4-5 grams down and we started getting paranoid and had trouble breathing. I heard God and threw all the stuff into the pond we were by. That was the end of it. Until here recently. Now I know people say you cannot get addicted to pot physically, but like all things, if you cannot handle it in moderation it will become a god.
Recently I started having really bad insomnia because I work midnights during the weekend and go to school full-time during the week days, needless to say, my sleep schedule was all kinds of messed up. I looked for medication and talked to doctors and they all recommended different types of medication, and all the side-effects were crazy, the biggest one I didn't want was dependency on these medication to sleep when they were not needed. So I went back and started researching the natural medication. And here is where we start my build.
so I am sending it back and getting another one. Here in a week I will get my paycheck and everything should be finalized, as long as I can get the light by then. I am currently in the process of panda-filming everything. Totals so far:
