Hi all! New to this site and love what I see. I could never imagined back in the 60’s and 70’s a site such as this. Daily mind blow and glad to be here!
I currently live in St Louis and am a licensed patient, cultivator and caregiver. Started growing indoors while living in Santa Barbara CA in the late 70’s then moved to Portland area in the 80’s and having to move to St Louis in 2001 to take care care of my aging mom (god rest her soul) and am still here today.
Like many of you I’ve had a long love affair with cannabis and its many forms.
Until the laws changed here in Missouri, I maintained a small discreet grow for years and last Nov. 2020 I built a new 8x10 room and I thought I’d share my first grow with you all.
The strain is Gorilla Glue #4 from clones I got from a grow buddy who got the seeds from Seedsman seed bank. Lights are two 1000w HIDs in veg then two 1000w HPS in flower daisy chained together and coupled with two 420 cfm exhaust fans. one for a carbon filter and one to cool the lamps.
I’m currently growing in soil and my mix is fox farms ocean forest 60%, coco coir 20% and perlite 20%. I also use the full fox farm nute line in 7 gallon felt pots. I veg 20/4 and 12/12 in flower
You have landed in the right place.
Welcome to this growers utopia.
I am in Illinois, so right across the river.
Also one of those old schoolers that still can’t believe we can now grow legally.
The way God and George Washington intended it to be.
If any of you local guys are ever interested in doing a little “consulting” I’d be super interested in paying someone to come out and help me with my layout, basic knowledge and such.
