Out of Control Hobby Addicted to Gardening

Started my first grow in early September just a small garden for personal use. Purchased equipment to start growing five plants in soil inside a Hydrohut original. Got my seeds from Attitude, feminized master kush and some freebies. They all germ just fine. Ten plants, I only wanted 5. 2 of the freebies were male so I ended up with 8. More than I need.

The addiction begins. They are growing just fine but I start to look at other strains. Let's try some Arjan's Haze #1. Five more seeds and more freebies from Attitude. Well, I need more room now. I Insulate the attic walls with reflectix, throw in some vents buy some equipment $$$. Got lots of room now! 16' X 24'.

This is cool! Plants are growing in my attic. This is great. Hey, what is this Jack Herer strain. I think I need that. I ordered more seeds last week. It begins again.

Now I have a dilemma. I am growing way more than I could possibly consume. I actually love the process of growing. Each phase and process has it's own reward from seedling to curing (not quite there yet).

Does anyone else just feel the need to grow? Am I addicted to growing pot? I was told weed wasn't an addictive substance. Please share your thoughts and experiences with me.

jaack herer is good herb dont let your adiction get out of hand and get you locked up best to just find a couple strains you like and keep em as mothers

i too feel the need to expand operations.....

Have you tried adding other plants to your grow room? Tomatoes, or some fresh herbs? Growing everything is fun, it's not just limited to pot you know.

its kinda the same as when your on your first grow and over caring for your plant now you can grow and cant get enough... it takes a lot of patiance to grow.. how i solve the addiction it to try new things every grow..experiment


do some lst one grow do scrog another try your hand at hydro one grow try fiming try simple toping and supercroping start tsken clones and try sog try a prepetual harvest try lolipoping try anything you can think of thers so much to do without expanding your grow changin it up every grow keeps it interesting

i just finished with areo and im back in soil this time after 3 hydro grows its time for me to go back to soil

Definitely trying different things. I am going to take some clones soon. I am done buying seed. Thinking of setting up an ebb and flow table. More money spent... I think I might add some other plants as well. What is a good mix of veggies to grow in the same environment?

Explaining lollipopping? Heard of it before but not sure what it is?

you can preaty much just take clones and veg a short time then trim up the bottom and at the end of flower you will have one cola like a lolipop on a stick

I started growing because I did not feel comfortable asking around to trying and buy some. I have no distribution channels to get rid of it. Which means nobody knows about it except you faceless strangers.

ordering seeds and looking at pictures and reading articles of fine bud of all types..who doesnt want to try it?...ordering seeds of new strains is like eating pop corn..you just cant stop...itll drive you fucking bonkers...one day..you just have to admit..i have a problem...that is the first step to a cure...

I have no face ? ! ? ! :

It would be kinda freaky if you did not have a face. So I am sure you have just can't picture it in my mind.

It looks mostly like this ----->

They are the first things I check in the morning and the last things before I go to bed at night. I like to just chill in the grow room and read sometimes. It isn't even comfortable just an old wooden chair and a five gallon bucket to put my feet up. My face kinda looks like this too

i slept in my room last night, best dreams ever

cool as fuck i have thought about it lol no really i have

growing pot is a passion and an art only limited by what you can do safely without attracting attention

I love growing any plant in genreal
its just so cool how a little seed can turn into an amazing plant

i literally have to force myself to stop midway through starting more seeds almost every day.. for almost a full week i was germing one more every day

i don't even think i have enough space for the ones going right now!

careful growing in atti you dont want to ventilate out thehouse or it will leave a hot ass stream fo air that they look for with the flir cameras better to vent to another part of the house
