I'm HCG! Come along with me for a summer's grow

@mulegal @smitty87 @rumpelstiltskin @Covertgrower @Growit @AmnesiaHaze @FloridaSon @BIGE @raustin @Sasquatch Please pass this on to others Thanks

Welcome to my Summer of ‘18 grow! I Love Growing Marijuana, truly I do. For anyone who doesn’t know me a bit of history, I grew up in the 60’s, smoked my first ‘joint’ with some friends from high school, we just graduated 1966, and have never looked back. Here I am now a true ‘old schooler’, still growin’ my own at 70. Boy have things changed over the years! I am in a wheel chair now, broken hip didn’t heal right, so I do things much differently, at my level. I have a scooter The Pot Mobile’ which is my baby. I am an outdoor grower only, couldn’t figure out a grow thing if my life depended on it. I am the epitome of ‘let it be’ growing, I am a firm believer of quality vs quantity, because if you have quality you don’t need quantity. I do not pinch or tie or need to stake my girls. I grow in 5 gal. buckets and as you will see a very firm believer in the use of gypsum, minimal nutrients, the use of tap water and all the sun that shines! I also believe I am controversial and that’s so okay, it makes for good thinking! I believe that every thing you do when growing is either good or bad and each gives a valuable lesson. And yes you can do it! Just remember this, my mantra, 'your mind listens to what your mouth says, if you say you can’t you won’t, but, if you say I can, you will! Believe in yourself before you even start! With all that being said, come on in and pull up a chair, stay awhile and I hope we all will learn something new. I love questions so ask away!

I’ll try to not be a Bogart. Funny how the coincidences seem to Keep on rolling. I was wondering if you were willing to share your secret recipe for the dry ingredients in your soil mix. I would understand if you wanted to keep that under your hat but it could be our little secret. :sunglasses: @highcountrygal

@smitty87 HaHaHa! nothing I do is secretive! Actually I just put all of the stuff in pics on the new journal. I am not quite sure you should put your email up, we can do it through here! Any time, anytime!

My email is so blasted with junk I usually just delete it anyway.

@smitty87 Thx. What I get are telemarketers by the million, invalid numbers so unless I recognize the # I don’t answer. Once I told a telemarketer woman a string of very precise no uncertain terms why she shouldn’t call my number and she says ‘you don’t have a right to talk to me like that’ What a joke
