Driving 6 kids to LA and staying a night in santa Cruz on the way back up to go to the aquarium. I should be about ready to lose my mind at that point...

You are a very good farmer. I can't even grow an air fern. I am glad there are the pros to do the growing and I will be a happy consumer of their product.

For a weed its a little harder to grow then people realize. Ive done a lot of outdoor over the years and think I finally got a handle on indoors. It still feels surreal I can do this legally. About half of the neighborhood is growing. You can definitely tell when crops are ripe...

Did everything wrong and it turned out great. Going to the Med Store is much easier.

can put limits on my life style.

I also love variety and almost always by a new or different strain at the store.

I do plan on doing it again.

for gifts to friends. If you are home long enough that is. You could save money on gifts and make your friends very merry at the same time!

I have to set it up, but I hope my next crop will be outside. Also will plant a variety of strains. Recreational will be on the Michigan ballot in November. I move up to Central Michigan a little of 2 years ago and am finding many of my neighbors are growers too.

I am blasting mine with a LOT of food. I have really light soil so I can water every other day. Plus I am running 1000 watt vented lights about a foot from the tops. Its basically a balancing act to see how many nutes and how much light you can give them without frying them. You kinda always have to be on the edge to get really big buds

I am using Buddha Bloom not very educated in the use of nutes. Using LEDs this grow comparing old Cree LED lights one side 2nd generation COB LED on other side doing a comparison grow.

Started some plants for outdoors. I just got a simple very lean set up

Extra calcium is a must though. I also use micro nutes and molasses. Also use fox farms phase powders every few waterings. They are used in different flowering stages. But if you are gonna use a lot of synthetics you will need to flush the soil every few weeks to stop salt build up.
