Started growing in the mid 1970's with twin 6ft strip lights and bagseed.
My daily smokes were hash from Lebanon, Morocco and Afghanistan along with charas from Pakistan and Nepal.
Weed back then was much less flower dominant but was still very high quality and every seed I grew was a winner. How times have changed.
Was following D Gold too and decarbing edibles in the early 80's.
Tried micro growing in the noughties and loved it so much I'm still bang at it
