Have you ever grown?

[spongebobsmokepants]

ahhh ...growing. the thing that most of us long to do. Whether you want to grow that exotic strain you have only read about in High Times, or just grow bagseed so you don't have to buy from the "dealers" anymore. Maybe you had a great grow in the past, but circumstances won't allow it now. Sound off, let us know.
Have you ever grown?

[aries ormazd]

Ive talked SO much about it with my crew but never got around to it... Its very fun to grow and I look forward to it :D

[Yah dumb nug!]

When I get my own place thats definetely the first thing on my list:thumbsup:

[Nochowderforyou]

Yes, I have gtown about 6 different strains myself now. I haven't grown for nearly a year (indoors) due to a near miss with my landlord awhile back. Too risky where I am right now, but in the warmer months I found a nice little area for some outdoors.

Indoors though, I grew the same afghan cross my first time, WW my second time and I had to harvest a week or so early due to the skunky stench. Great stuff though. Then I grew Pure Power Plant and the pic got published in a magazine. After that, I grew Manatuska Thunderfuck and it went south, so I tried again, same strain with much better success. Then after that, I grew Black Dominia which was 2 weeks off from harvest. The stink again made me cut early, so I made butane oil with the premature buds, so it wasn't a total loss.

And then that's when I stopped. I want to start again for personal use as I always grow only a couple of plants. Quality over quanitity I say, plus I've gotten my hands on some new seeds, so I'm reeady to go now. :)

No, I don't really have the time to grow my own. And hiding it would be difficult for me too.

[Me.]

Since I live in a shitty apartment, theres no chance of me growing here. So I talked my father into letting me grow at his house. Hes got a nice 15 acre tree farm a good 45 minutes from where I live. Had my first outdoor grow this year and the buds are sitting in jars waiting to be smoked:jointsmile: He waters and takes care of them while i'm not there. He's the best.
I've talked him into letting me have a grow room in his basement. Starting it this winter. Can't wait!

[Nightcrewman]

We did grow up till a few weeks ago but we have shut down growroom as we were not having any success we had 4 crops in a year but yields were so low it became un-economical, but go for it it's worth a try as we have a lot of friends who have good crops.

i grow my own pot just so i dont have to buy any:hippy:

[anun]

with the price of pot now a days, it's just cheaper grow your own. one can hide their plant in plain sight using the bonsai method, ive never tried it, but stealth is not a prob for me.

[Trip06]

I had to resort to growing my own bud, Now that I have an Idea of it I found out its really not that hard. Just takes a shitload of patients.

[spongebobsmokepants]

I grew my first plant nearly 10 years ago. since then I have grown in a basement, attic, closet, box trailer,and outside. A few of my grows have been aborted for various reasons. I love to sit with my plants and stare at them. Thats a feeling you have to experience, because you can't explain it to someone who has never been there. I have some cool strains that I have cloned.I like the cloning aspect of growing. it takes the mystery out of growing from seed. I wish I had more friends to share good clones with, but growing is a risky buisness, even in a state where it is legal.

[fifka101]

nope. i want to do it once i get my own place though.

[spongebobsmokepants]

So far a flat 75% of respondents have grown. Impressive.

[apollo46]

i did grow, but i moved to an apartment without sufficient space, but my girlfriend who doesnt smoke said we should definitely look for that in the next apartment.

[Green Hobbit]

Tried once in a closet last year, got some pretty spindly buds, but hey, I got high for a few weeks, so I guess it worked. Just started again with a little more research. We'll have to see how that goes.

[Cocoflava]

But i plan to in the next 2 months.. =]

My best grow was a room full of white widow when I lived in Holland.
Averaged about 3 oz per plant on a 120 plant grow, which is around 10 kilos, I owned a coffeeshop in Leiden and we sold it all in less than 3 weeks.

[meatw4d]

Grew two small plants this summer just because it was a lot of fun to do. I didn't plan well enough, though. Not enough light. We only ended up with a little more than a half oz.

I think the risk of it being illegal and that I could smoke it later made it a lot more fun, and it was easy for me to give the plants watering attention. I wish they would have told me that they needed more light, lol.

[Mrs. Greenjeans]

They did tell you. When they stretched and got skinny, that was them telling you.
LOL! I'm j/k. I don't know anything about your grow. BUT, if they got lanky and spindly, they were definitely telling you.

Don't give up. It's sooooo fun!

[meatw4d]

Well I didn't know what they were supposed to look like. It was my first time. Used seeds from a bad of mids.

Live and Learn... :jointsmile:

[GreenLadyOfDankDowns]

I tried growing when I was younger and ignorant of good grow techniques. They never even made it past six inches in height. Poor little things. I was definitely guilty of plant abuse. I have everything gathered together to start my first real grow at this point, but things keep coming up that force me to postpone. I can't wait till I can really begin. I am excited by all I've learned on this site and am anxious to grow my own plants, not just for the finished product but also for the experience. When I've completed my first successful crop I'm going to be inordinately proud of the accomplishment. ;)

[stinkyattic]

Naw, I don't know shit about growing anything...

[Psycho4Bud]

Growing? Sounds way to complicated...:D

Have a good one!:jointsmile:

[c of green]

yes........and i will again(i wanted an evil genius..muhaha type smily here but o well)

[xcrispi]

Nope ,
Shits illegal man . :D
Crispi :jointsmile:

[TallulahGreen]

Yes, legally have grown it medicinally. Gotta love medical marijuana.

Interesting stuff.

[TheSmokingMonkey]

No, I haven't, but I'm telling you, the moment it's legalized, I'm planning to change careers. I want to grow medical strains, recreational strains, meditative strains, in every strength and color. *sigh* but The Man's got me down, so no, no growing.

[BudGrower]

One of life's greatest pleasures is to visit your plants growing outdoors and just gaze at them for a long time, especially just before harvesting them, see the buds with dew glistening in the early morning sunshine. I love to smell the buds and inspect them with a magnifying glass. I just finished harvesting. I grew 4 females this season, one of each: BurmeseXFucknIncredibleXSweetTooth, NorthernLights#5, Mr.NiceXWhite Rhino, and the last to finish on 11/2/07 was SuperSkunk. These were all from seeds I bought from Mark Emery in 2001. I kept the seeds in the fridge. I grow my supply about once every 5 years.

[robo scat]

I started growing in the womb, son. ;)

[Skrappie]

puberty was pretty cool.

[spongebobsmokepants]

68% we need more growers to step up! speak up!

[Reefer Rogue]

Not yet...
