WHAT’S GROWING ON?:

Growing has come so far since we started! So much has changed! From using old streetlights to the world’s most advanced LED tech. From bag seed to Mac1. From 5 year minimum mandatories for 99 plants to the backpack days of selling it to the store and walking out with cash. From $400 ounces you needed the hookup to get to $92 ounces sold at the store and advertised in the newspaper. Shit the weed ads are keeping some newspapers alive! Let’s celebrate the progress we’ve made as growers of the sticky nugs! When was the first time you saw a cannabis grow and what was it like?

Scotty1991 in College. My  dealer stole an hps light from a car dealership and had maybe a dozen plants in a closet. Classic strains: NL #5, Durban Poison, Afgani, Skunk #1. He went to jail for 5 years for getting caught selling/ growing. G13 was our big moneymaker in the early 90s.

DudeCan I call my 100w compact fluorescent a grow? Scotty’s would have been the first real grow. Actually saw one In Missouri, back then I didn’t really want to see peeps grow in case they got busted… Remember the equipment? Remember the first grow lights?

Who hasn’t started with a CFL grow?

Cheers to the OG: GH 3 Part Flora series:

Honest no BS description of what it does

Other gimmick lines showed up mostly to take advantage of our ignorance and sell us dreams!

Advanced Nutrients – how many products did they want you to use?

Microbes were not a thing in hydro for a long time! When was the first time you guys heard of soil microbes? Earthworm castings/ Compost teas. Mycor-what?
