My first grow was in 92................bag seed under (2) 4' 40 watt floros. Think I got about a 1/2 oz and thought I was king shit. Did a few outdoor grows over the years, read books by Ed, Jorge and Kyle and learned a bunch. Then came 99 & I discovered Overgrow. Learned more in the first 2 months there then I had learned in the 7 years prior. Other then a 5 year "vacation" between 04-09, I've been rocking ever since!!!

Nice thread, this got me thinking about how long I have been growing and I realized I have been growing in Hydro for almost exactly 20 years... Two years of soil grows before that..


Happy 20th Brother Bear!!

I built a heavily insulated room in my attic the winter of 1982-83 and started using mail-order flood & drain tubs under some salvaged industrial low-bay HPS lighting. Later switched to MH because I hated the way the plants looked under HPS, and went to 5 gallon buckets of dirt because I kept screwing up the hydro nutes (crystals!), and had more motivation after blowing off a hose and ruining my dining room ceiling. I took many years off starting before the kids got big enough to wonder what was going on, and got back into it after discovering the plethora of information available on the internet.

Dropped my first seed in the grate outdoors about 30 years ago. Colombian Gold it was. Moved indoors almost 3 years ago. Should have stayed indoors completely

Dropped my first seeds eleven years ago. Took two tries before I got a harvest. Found overgrow and the rest is history. Congrats to brother bear and all my fellow growers, no matter how many years, weeks or days you've been at it.

My first attempt was in 97 with a photo-tron in a trailer house closet. My roommate forgot to water them when I was on vacation and I came back to dead plants. I don't know why but I didn't try again until 2006 and I found I had a natural green thumb and I've been banging out crops ever since.
