greetings!!
Just found this site and see I could spend some serious time here. I am from Colorado and believe it or not I have only been smoking for a few years (I just turned 59). I managed to get through my youth without discovering this wonderful plant.
After abusing my body most of my life riding horses and being a tom boy, I discovered that most places on my body hurt in any given day. After being referred to a pain managment clinic and being put on a total of 9 different daily drugs, living with the complications of these drugs, just wasn't working. Enter my relationship with weed!
I am now down to 2 drugs for pain, one being ibuprophen.
Of course I am now dealing with the state of Colorado and their "we love ya now and now we don't", feelings on medical use. I have my red card and can have 6 plants.
So now I am going to try my hand at growing a few plants. I have have good luck with growing plants and have a green thumb. (Even grew registered african violets and yes they even have violet shows.. kid you not!) I once sold ONE leaf of a plant for $175. My husband about blew a gasket and had a real gleam in his eye when he offered to install more lighting
I already have 3 mh lamps off of a large saltwater fish tank. We also have ro/di water filter systems and I see it doing a double duty for my plant growing. I am just about to replace 3 more mh off of our other tank as we are going LED.
I have a spare bedroom in our bi level home. So now the ?? begin.
Do I need to completely seal off this room? I will probably be installing some kind of carbon filter to help with keeping our neighbors happy ( The guy on the corner grows so I guess I could just point my finger down that way) My husband is in HAVAC so I have that covered. There is one window at ground level. The room size is prob 10X10
When I got into the saltwater fish, I bought stuff that I found out later was not what we needed and I spent a lot of money buying dumb stuff. I am trying not to do that this time.
So...... I have some lights and a room and a very handy husband.. where should I start?
