old goat

Can't believe I'm an old timer. My claim to nonfame is that I got some of the first Afghani seeds in SoCal in the mid '70s (seeds as big as little fingernail). I stopped growing 2 years later due to unforseen circumstances( guess?). I had crossed them with some good Columbian before the dark day and passed some seed to my friend Ed R. who perpetuated and rebread for many years. They're one of the parent lines of some of the strains we have now.
Anyway, visited Garden's Cure for a while when I started growing again, those folks helped me get back up to speed (what with hydro, cloning, bubblebags, etc.).
I'm on here to grow my skills from other's experiences rather than learning the hard way, if possible.
So hi all.
