That’s amazing! It’s remarkable how healing this plant can be! We are all in total support of your recovery. Thanks for sharing your journey and we look forward to hearing more about it.
At what elevation are you growing? How are you able to overcome and work with the environment to produce your medicine?

I’m @ 6500’ this means short season timing critical and my key is working with mother nature not fighting her. This year I cheated some and started seeds indoors and have them harden off (I hope) my mountain Goddess’s are screaming to be outside waiting on one more llow pressure system to come through. Have been told long as plant flowers outdoors can be considered sun grown I don’t totally agree. Not big deal unless your retired horticulture’s. Look forward to sharing journey with you folks. Enjoy cultivating.

It’s not cheating if you get away with it 
Good thinking!
Maybe even grow a clone indoors over this growing season, get it good and big, then throw it outdoors next season??

I usually grow two indoor plants at a time.
I got broke into and robbed last year and even though I have completely rebuilt everything and I have two tents, only one tent has a plant in it right now
I’ll harvest this gal in two weeks then get both tents up and going
Since being broke into I just finished my last big DIY project to the room by sealing it off.
I had to do some AC work after I did that but I put together a small journal here on that project

Continuing the discussion from Introduce yourself to the community!:
Hello to all, I am Joeyt67, and grateful to be a part of this community. After 40 years of hiding and persecution I finally feel like I have been set free to grow our gift from God, cannabis. Now primarily a personal grow for myself and my family.
After several years of testing I feel I have come up with a viable plan to grow some of best quality cannabis available to those only on the west coast, here in Michigan. Currently testing a full run of 10 Northern Light Auto/Feminized, and 1 Grape Ape Feminized. So far with complete success in stretching the veg time, with out stressing the autos into bud. 59 days so far with 18 days left to go before plants will be placed outdoors to receive a natural 12/12, 61 day bud cycle.
I like to call this process, “SLOWN GROWN”, quality from seed to flower. The combination of controlled interior vegetation growth and outdoor 12/12 naturally through our summer here in Michigan, mimmicks a natural west coast growth cycle. Definitely showing some promising results so far, and I will post future updates. Thank you again for a “Hobbiest” Membership, I am definitely proud to be member. Joeyt67

Thank you. This is my first official grow. I cant wait for my state to make cannabis recreationally available to me. They say it will be available by the second quarter of 2020. That timeline to me is ridiculous. So We will do for ourselves.
