I suffer from crippling chronic back pain. Has anyone out there used pot for chronic pain? I live in Oregon where, with a doctor's permission a person can use pot for treatment of various ailments. I currently have a small puck-shaped pump implanted under the skin on my belly that delivers morphine directly into my spinal fluid which I augment with oral narcotics. I would like some options. Thus, I have some questions:

Is anyone using pot for chronic pain?

Is anyone using an aerogarden for growing plants only for individual use?

How long will it take go grow a plant(s) until they can be used?

Do the plants need to be cured/dried?

Do all plants "bud?"

Well that's about all I have for now. I really appreciate any tips you can give me for success in my endeavor. Oh yes, what about seeds?

Thanks,

read around here lots of info everywhere all your ?s will be anserwed! go in the areo section there is a big thread for the areogarden..

go to FAQS up top. Im not familiar with using an aerogarden but many people use pot for pain. Just depends on the person is what I hear. Depending on how much bud you want a plant can take forever to grow. The fastest time to do it is 3 1/2 months. 1 month of vegging, 2 months of flowering and a couple weeks to dry and cure. Male plants do not bud. You want to try to get feminized seeds or just plant as many seeds as possible and identify if the plant is male or female when it comes time to flower. Becareful of males, they will spread pollen to ur females and you will get a hermie. Hermies wont give u as much bud and have some seeds in them.

go to the hydro section of the forums and you will see a few aerogarden threads, heres some links:
