Heya folks. I'm new here and wanted to introduce myself. How's it growing? :P
I'm Methuselah and I've been a small-time, personal grower since 1993 (with a horiticultural degree!), but I've taken the last few years off. I moved and the situation wasn't right, nor were the people, if you know what I mean ;). Currently, I live in a place where growing is looked on very unfavorably.
I'm a veteran of the former Overgrow.com forums (under a different name), where I won a picture of the month award and some free Bogglegum seeds, as well as participated in the seed exchange helping to support the medical patients accessing the site.
I have experience growing the following strains in hydroponic or aeroponic systems:
Sweet Tooth #3
NYC Diesel
The original Northern Lights #5
Narcolepsy (Pacific Northwest strain)
Matanuskan Thunderfuck (Snow Bud)
SS's White Widow
NoCal's Tarantula
Bogglegum
Nirvana Chrystal (blueberry deviant, sativa-heavy craziness)
I'm not much of a head anymore. Actually, I never was. I enjoy smoking, but I don't have to smoke to be happy/productive/loving/kind/etc. Due to my location, I've been reasonably 'straight' for the last few years.
Anyway, I'm here now because I'm considering starting up something small again. I really don't know anything about the community here, so I'll start out by asking a few questions:
Is most everyone kind-hearted and good natured? I love to joke around and I'm a little sarcastic sometimes, but not too cynical or jaded.
Is LEO a regular visitor on here and, if so, do you recommend a TOR proxy or something similar when viewing/posting? Where are the servers located, and are they ever in jeopardy of getting raided like OG?
I've looked around, but I haven't seen many people posting more than general growroom setups. I'm looking for some inspiration, so where should I go for some in-depth, blueprinted drawings and layouts of small-time (400W HPS flowering setups) with their bill of materials needed? Does that exist on this site?
I look forward to contributing a lot in various places, from suggestions to how-tos and maybe some chronological grow stages threads.
Thanks for having me!
