I would just like to say that I am very impressed with your knowledge and skills.

I have been lurking this site for quite some time now but I don't grow and haven't been able to smoke weed for quite a few years now due to my job so I really didn't want to put myself in any kind of danger by registering on any sites like this, But I have really been missing the good old days as of late so I have registered on a couple of different sites such as this one. I still won't grow any more as I have young children that depend on me and I will not risk putting them in any sort of predicament.
but I going to instruct a friend that wants to give it a go.

I used to be darn near famous for my growing skills in my younger years I did it strictly for the love of growing and improving the plant. (Well ok, I loved to get high too) But I never sold a single bud. I gave it all away as gifts to friends and there was plenty of it! I have no problem with people that sell of course. I just feel that it would ruin my joy of growing and giving if turned it into a commercial venture.

Growing techniqe has improved by leaps and bounds since I last grew any weed. I would have to say and I am sure that all would agree that it is mainly due to the sharing of knowledge and seed via the internet. It is amazing what has happened now that we can talk to people all over the world and pool our knowledge. I feel like a total novice when once I was deemed a master.

I see just a morsel of what you can do with these plants from the pictures and posts you make here. I can only imagine what skills you have that you don't possibly have time to share with us.
Just imagine what you would be capable of if you could grow outdoors (or indoors for that matter) with total freedom from theives or the law.

Right out in the open with no need to worry about hiding plants in sunlight robbing cover or only being able to give half ass attention to them so you don't beat a path or get spotted tending to them.

I learned many lessons about trust, betrayal, patience, joy, disappointment, and fear from growing those plants. It is a strange thing that a plant can show you which of your friends you truly trust. You can have a friend that is willing to give his life for you but the temptation of the weed is too much for him to handle.

Growing pot is not simply a way to make money or get high. You may start out with those intentions but you learn many other things along the way wether you meant to or not.

I know you don't know me and this is only my second post here but I really miss my glory days and I had to share a little of my past with a very talented grower like I once was.
