WELCOME Yader, here at RIU (If I can say that & I did! ha) also to United States! I've visited Ukraine been to Odessa, Nikolaev and Kheron a couple times, love the friendly kind people. I had plans to return this fall but plans are broken sometimes so I'll look to next year. I really want to see more of Ukraine. I didn't get the chance to try any of your weed there. I don't even know what your laws are with Pot. Did you grow over in Ukraine or here in States? Your English is good. I love these web sites where 'Real People' leave their true opinions and experiences with growing.
Happy Grows to US'ALL !:peace:bongsmilie:weed:

Hey everybody, I'm 59 years old and going to retire in a couple years and I just found out I have glaucoma. I smoked and grew inside and outside in the 70's and 80's. I live in Southern California and will be getting a medical m card. I haven't smoked since 97' and the reason being I'm a truck driver and we have DOT drug testing. I plan to start growing in 1 year so I'm trying to get current on indoor growing. I have money to invest and I wanted to try a good led system like maybe grow pro in a 4x4 tent. With soil. Also looking for good medical strain for glaucoma.

Howdy SR! Sorry about the glaucoma.:sad: You're love this site, everybody is friendly and has the knowledge, experience and willing to share their wisdom. We are not to far from each other, I used to live in S
CA., also. If you have the money you can build/buy a really good set up! I'm serious about the LED'S, there is really good threads/post and growers journals here and other grow sites. So many ways to go, it is a hard decision which way to go. As you have noticed in this media internet world now, you have all kinds of information and documents. That wasn't available back in the 70's & 80's, we/I had to read from books. So much out there now it's over whelming, but delicious at same time. I spend Way to much time, reading and researching. Thou I know it's going to pay off when I start growing seriously! You're find all the answers here. So many great people willing to help. Hope you find everything you need.
Great and Happy Healthy growing to you and hope you find the correct Meds you need!:weed::grin:bongsmilie

Thanks bmiller for the reply. I'm leaning to a good led setup for a variety of reasons including electricity costs. I'm amazed at the amount of info out there and especially the strains available. I think of when I first started smoking in 1970, you got four fingers of Mexican weed in a regular Baggie and it was called a " lid ". And it cost 10 bucks. Wow has it changed, I'm drooling over all the pictures of all these incredible strains!

Hello, bmiller! I'm just live in Nikolaev region! My parents live in Kherson. Odessa is a nice city, but I visit it only one time. :lol: It's a great to meet man on riu who a visited my land. If it don't secret your previous visits a work-related or touristic? The laws in my country is lenient to growing a several plants (fine up to 20 plants if I don't mistake) but in real life situation is a very bad. Our policy is very corrupt and if you a haven't enough of money you risk to get a criminal penalty. I grow over in Ukraine. In States I never has been. When writting here some words I translate with help of Google-translator:lol:
Welcome to us next time!

Hey Socalrob, for us older folks it's a new experience and to read and research all the different ways to grow. I'm with you with the leds and hate to pay those money hungry power companies. Besides I don't have the power supply. I didn't start smoking until I was in my 20's, I was redneck cowboy and believed our government. Our government lied again to us about Pot. Don't get me started about our government! I do remember measuring "lids" by fingers and the cost!
Hey SR, be careful about growing your meds or growing in general...It's very addictive! I'm hooked...OMG! I love taking care of my Ladies, Pampering, nurturing, giving them what ever they need/want...It's no difference weather it's a plant or a real human being (Female) I do spoil them because the outcome beats all...Love my Girls!! Like you I'm going to retire soon and like to be know as a good grower and growing good/great meds as I also need the meds myself. This site will make you a social media socialist. Which I've never been, It's a surprise to me! I look at this and can't believe I wrote this stuff.
Good luck when you make up your mind on which way and the stain you wish to pamper and grow...all your time and thoughts will be about your "Grow"/Ladies ! Have fun and hope they are good and green healthy bad ass dank weed you grow and make you feel so much better because you grew that delicious weed! How crazy are we when we get so excited about growing a WEED !!?? Not to mention the money and time/stress we give this weed. Sorry got long winded here.:wall:

Yea Yader, I was in your home country and love it there. First visit was business then I had to go back for vacation and that's when I fell in love with the people. OK I have to tell you the truth...I went back because of your females/Ladies and plan to go back again maybe again.
You claim your country is "corrupt". Sorry brother you'll find the same here! Getting worst everyday! Now we'll looking at another WAR! Sorry that's another thread :sad:
Hope you get another grow started soon and enjoy America (What's left of it!!)!

Hi everyone (Hi doctor neddd)

I just joined RIU but I've skimmed through it's discussions in the past for help. I reside in Northern Cali and have been growing for a few years now. Ive done it all as far as growing - started with hydro and worked my way down into organics (where I'll be staying). I've learned a lot (I'm still learning every day) and I hope I can help and contribute to this awesome forum!

I'm currently traveling Europe, thank god for edibles, and cannot wait to get back to my babies that a few friends are taking care of outdoor (Tangerine Dream - 2010 cannabis cup winner, Kandy Kush, Hypnotic, Black Cherry Soda, and a sativa/blue dream cross a buddy of mine is creating) until harvest.

Take it easy guys and happy growing!

What's up everybody? I'm new to this site but was a user of GC for a long time. I left GC to try out some other forums, I also wasn't getting a long very well with one of the mods. I haven't grown in awhile because I sold my lights, I'm about to get some more and start an autoflowering grow using DWC. I smoke a lot, listen to just about everything but mostly rap and metal. If I think of anything else I'll let you know. I'm high and don't feel like typing anymore so I guess that's a good enough intro haha Nice to meet you all :weed:

Hello all. i have been a member here for some time, however just lurking. never posting. as of late, i have been having some trouble with my garden. so i will be posting here regularly ( in hopes that it will make me stay on top of my garden). I plan doing a grow log, im just finishing up a 6k bubba run, i have been fighting root aphids all thru flower, so i plan on CLEANING the room, i have secured cuts of GSC from a friend that i will run next. while this is going on, i have also secured CC tahoe og, CC 818 headband, RD Scotts OG beans that are popping as we speak. so the plan is to keep you all updated in an effort to stay on top of the garden.

so i guess i will see you all around. lets chat some time. :bigjoint:

Hi y'all. Just finishing up my first grow (drying and curing presently). Grew two clones: IndoHaze and Lavender (just two rando clones i picked up at the local shop). They grew pretty awesome; i'm rather stoked with the results, although I ended up getting more yield than I expected.

Anyways, glad to be here.
