I'm a 39 year old with multiple medical problems, starting from age 5 on. I'm lucky to live in a state that allows Medical MariJuana (MMJ), and have a recommendation for multiple qualifying conditions. Anyway here we go:
Back a ways in time about Autumn of 2011, I started studying all the information I could get my eyes on regarding growing MMJ. DAMN there is a LOT of shit out there!!! I just dove in and started trying to keep my head above water, and eventually got a fairly good grasp of not only MMJ, but other plants, environmental factors, etc, and how that all combined to make or break your crop.
I am not growing so that I can be self sustaining, just as a hobby/learning experience, and as an alternative to the regular stuff around here (all organic locavore MMJ products too). So far some rescue girls netted me 3 oz for me, and 1 oz for the donator of the girls. My first from seed though have been through a couple major battles. But they survived, and I just harvested them (early due to weather, and other environmental factors that led to them being shocked and going schizo on me). Not sure the yield yet, but I'm not holding out for more that 2 oz MAX and more like 1 oz realistically. Now I'm starting my second organic grow, and things look great to me so far. Here is a link to the Journal I started for it:

If you have any questions, comments, rants, raves, talks, tokes, whatever... Just send me a message, post here, whatever you need to do... I'd really like to hear more from other growers. I have only been doing this for about 6 months so far, so pretty much a complete noob, but lucky me I've had LOTS of experience growing other plants of many types. So I think for my first and second harvest getting 5 to 6 oz out of 8 plants is a good start. Now I just need to fine tune things to maximize my production for the equipment that I have.
So enough rambling, feel free to ask me questions, post questions and generally get some good conversations started.
