Lost-in-space found her land-legs as earth girl

High gropals!
I maybe haven't been here since the last Millenium. Any body aound from Uncle Ben's era? Anybody here remember Mota20?(Still miss ya, Larry!) Since then I have cyber-flitted hither and yon. Growing my little crop by earth friendly measures of conservation, minimum impact, such as renewable, biodegradible Coir and Charcoal with heat expanded Clay pellets. Add the Castings, and you have eg's C4 grow mix for seedlings and veggers. I take free supplimental lighting from the discreet upper-story south facing picture window, and salvage the components of each set-up with alot of creative recycling. As it has evolved, I've learned a great deal about what not to do. I've got a couple of cute worm beds which eat the best garbage and give me the richest castings. They are my partners in crime, disappearing all the rootballs, stems, dropped foliage, so nothing incriminating goes into the trash.
I love my babies each and every generation. I am fascinated to see the new growth from overnight, and search breathlessly for the first signs of sex like some kind of vegetative voyeur. I talk to them, and I listen to them very closely. My secret garden is the best therapy I've ever found!
Pax cannabis,

glad you could join us :)
always a few in chat http://boards.cannabis.com/livechat.ph

so come in and meet a few ;)

I'd like to join in, but I think my webtv(internet for dummies)is too simple to read the info. Ah well, without my webtv I would still be back in the stoneage, garnering info from an old, old grow guide I found at a used book store in a college town. And whatever I could glean from the public library about indoor gardening. Plus a lot of trial and error. Gave me lots of 'experience'(what you get when you don't get what you expected). Fun, but Oh, so lonely....

I love the Sonoran! In my opinion it is the most all round beautiful desert: The jagged peaks and mysterious canyons, magestic saguaros, exotic ocatillo and organpipe cacti. There are some really good crystal and geode deposits, chalcedony 'roses', fire-agates. And occationally ancient indian evidence, a stone wall here, petroglyphs there, potshards now and then...Magical!
I'm pretty familiar with the country around Searchlight, Pahrump, the Kingston and Amargosa Ranges, Death Valley, and the ghost towns: Rhyolite and Beatty, as I recall. All good wilderness experience, rockhounding, nature appreciation...
eg{8^D says, when do we start?
