Noobn' up the place....

So I've been around weed since Jr. High, but never cared enough to actually partake till recently as I have been diagnosed with Mysthenia Gravis and have been medically discharged from the Military.

The stuff they had me taking to control my condition made my body hate me. High doses of Pregnizone (100mg/day) and Pyrostigmine (20gm/ 3x/day) can really mess with anyone's system.

The above meds and multiple others i was using daily(advil, sleep aids, joint pain meds, appetite pills, etc.) don't hold a torch to a simple all-natural PLANT!

Smoking is more of a daily thing now as i sample the many different strains of medicine i was deceived about my whole life.

Then a few months ago i thought it would be a great idea to dive into growing since it was logical to me to grow what i consume(if possible).

A few months later of jumping through hoops and a slow start and i think i have built up to a decent little garden with some great pointers here and there on forum sites.

I'm currently knowledgeable enough to keep my plants alive for now, but I know I'll be needing a lot more help down the road as i take the first steps towards a hobby/lifestyle that makes sense to me while sharing my knowledge with others as the world turns.

There's my story...
In Conclusion, I'm glad to be here and i hope to learn lots of new things and make new friends along the way.

from one noobie to another, welcome to RIU.
cannot tell you how satisfying it is to smoke something you have grown yourself. not to mention how much healthier it is (around where i am smoke is often sprinkled with glass or sprayed with other drugs)
again, welcome to the site.

smoke on and be happy
