I'm not fully recovered but feeling good enough to get online, enjoy a bit of smoke and I've even started shopping for upgrades for the next grow.

Looks like we're going to get a larger Hombox, probably the "XL", and go with a 400 to 600 watt HPS. Heck, we may even break down and order some beans.
Wow McToke... Glad to hear you're ok man.
Welcome back, and I'm looking forward to your next grow
dooobster Reviewed by dooobster on . McToker's 1st Grow with CFL This is our, the wife and I, first serious attempt at growing. We started out by using some basic info we found on the net. After we had started and found this site, we realized that the info we were using was incomplete, very dated or a bit of both. The first sprout showed up on July 8. This is the one that we call the freak of nature due to the huge leaves. The rest sprouted within 10 days of the first one. All are bagseed donated by an old freind.
