I've been growing for a long time. It feels like a long time anyway. 13 years now. BOG's posts on Overgrow got me started growing with organic soil mixes back in 2000 / 2001. I feel like I owe him something for all the knowledge he passed along back then.
Staying together for 41 years is something special. You're lucky to have found each other at such a young age. My marriage didn't work out that way exactly, but I'm hoping to find that kind of lasting connection someday.
