    Don’t drink anymore, but a walk under the starlight used to be my fav. And if you’ve got a long walk home you’re basically sober by the time you show up

      I got pretty wasted in the woods once together with some friends while grilling and staring at the stars. That was epic.

      I have no clue how I got home though. That’s a two to three hour walk when sober, and I was drunk enough to only remember the first half hour of it.

      But now I drink maybe twice a year, and very little. The stars look nice even when sober. And on Monday weed was legalized here, that’s more like it for me nowadays.

          I just bought a bunch of seeds. That feels so surreal. This weekend I’ll buy snacks and fly to space, and it’ll be legal.

            Tips from a fellow enthusiast:

            1.) Get a GOOD light. (Checkout the Thinkgrow Model-H for example).

            2.) Set up a good hydroponic system, and use timers for your water schedule. (I recommend drips system. And don’t forget to flush with water at least twice between feedings to prevent salt build-up)

            3.) Use as big of a pot as you can realistically get away with. The bigger your rootball, the bigger your plant and more nutrients it can take up.

            4.). Get a GOOD carbon filter and no one will ever know your growing…unless you open your tent…

            5.) Get a good tent! You want reflective walls, ventilation ports, cord access, etc.

            6.) and lastly…and most importantly, get good genetics. Autos are great for a trial grow, but nothing will ever beat a good photoperiod plant - better yield, better quality, and massive, beautiful, photo-worthy colas.

            Follow these basic tips, and I guarantee you’ll grow something better than you’ll be able to get at most dispensaries.

              Thank you 💕

              The first ones I’ll just throw onto my balcony. I’ll check how they manage and how I manage to keep them alive before investing into a proper setup. But I’ll get back to these tips. Thanks again 💖

                You and everyone else is going to be potting outdoors now that it’s legal, and if there is a single male anywhere within a mile or two of you (which is pretty much guaranteed in the city), you’ll end up getting pollinated. I would highly recommend you don’t do that…BUT, if you do, at least grow two plants so you can compare if you notice any issues in one of your plants.

                G’luck!

              I just had a look at the light. That thing is way bigger than the tent I’m looking at right now. I guess I’ll check for a smaller one.

      Tries to walk under the stars in the city: city light polution ruins it.
