and Chappy Chanukah! I'm indoor growing after a 30 year break. My 30 year old Thai seeds I had all these years would not germinate, big surprise. Back then they were killer. I Had a 1K MH.
Had 2 grows last year. Had to get all new shit. Picked up 400W MH and 150W HPS. RIT gave me more knowledge than I had from reading same 5 issues of High Times over and over. Still, first grow got fungus gnats, identified them, and handled them. 2nd grow was reveg of first. Reveg worked, but got spider mites. Experienced them mofos back in the day and didn't know the web was even an insect and was complete disaster. So was watching out this time and caught them early, though it was late flower. Used natural garlic, pepper, etc. spray which did the trick long enough to get to harvest. Took a break to re-engineer and fumigate. Shit, I couldn't use what I got in like ten fucking years anyway.
These days I like to eat and not smoke. I'll smoke in order to test new strains and crosses, but otherwise swallow cannabutter in controlled dosage. Takes 3 hours before I'm high. I'm looking for medical and psychological benefits. Trying high CBD but seems that is not the only way to be medical benefit, though I had problems back in the day and I have trouble handling the new incredibly strong shit. First thing I got in CO I said fuck this and threw it away. Anyhow, I'm working the range from 100% sativa to 100% indica, 20:1 to 1:1 to 0:20 CBD. Would love different smells and colors too. But small doses and easy does it. Take your time and maybe we'll find Nirvana.
And in the 80's had the apparently now extinct east coast skunk. I never laughed like that again. It was some strong happy shit and it happened to make my ears ring, just a weird thing, isn't it?
