We grew outside with seeds we got from Mexican brick. Hundreds of plants in my backyard. Cops could care less.

Then I bought a Phototron and learned about sexing.

Back in the 1970s I considered myself lucky to grow a seeded plant. Mostly I smoked leaves.

[yesum]

^^ Yeah, smoking leaves, that was a thing back in the 70's. Immature buds if you were lucky.

Darn kids these days, in my day we smoked fan leaves and had fun doing it! My Dad had to walk a mile to school in freezing temps and had no pot to smoke. He thought I was spoiled of course.

[yesum]

I accidentally broke the top off one of my vegging plants so instead of tossing it I sun dried it and smoked a little. Not strong but a mild high. Still smoking leaves hehe

How are the weed prices ?

Wow. Lots of memories here.... chopping up street lights, growing in wardrobes with no carbon filter, houseful of people but no one had a clue... there was precious little weed in the uk back then ( all hash or import seeded) so it wouldn't have occurred to anyone that you were growing.
Still pretty much just as illegal now though, so not everything has changed!

For me it was fun. Not THAT old, and only growing for myself. Stealing lamps, growing everywhere there was shaded sun.. Indoors was for starting plants not finishing them, cuz bulbs were hard to steal, lol.

The previous generation, didn't seem so fun for them. But they were large scale. Blowing off deputies legs in boobie trapped bamboo fields, inevitable meth dealings, disowned family members...
