Finally...

Hello all,
Glad to have finally signed up.

I am here as I am annoyed and distressed with the amount of people suffering and dying around me that could benefit from using medical marijuana.
Another family member passed over yesterday from excruciating lung cancer. I say excruciating as the treatment he took made him considerably worse and in my perception advanced his death.
I have now decided, after much thought and discussion with my partner, that I will now decide to grow medical marijuana and distribute to those who need it free of charge. (This is a long term plan and may need to relocate to a more understanding country).
I understand that this choice maybe risky and somewhat unadvisable especially the country that I live in is very low on tolerance concerning marijuana. However, I try to be a man of principle and integrity and believe that natural law trumps any law written by man.
I have studied pharmaceutics and micro biology and worked in the industry for a short while. I have been researching (and enjoying) marijuana now for a number of years and understand the chemistry and process within the human body and mind.
I have to be honest and do what I feel is right, I have been contemplating this for a number of years now and all that has left me with is less family and friends and those who are suffering.
I hope that you will be graceful enough to help me through any (and im sure there will be) problems and issues I may tackle.

Many thanks for listening

Hey all,
With the backing of (some) family members and good friends I am ready for germination tonight. Already found some genuine people wanting to give it a go (they have not heard of the benefits and basically thought it was bad for them).
I have set up the room and now ready to go.
I have a Blockbuster Air-cooled hood, a Magnum XXXL Air – cooled hood both 600w and powered by two Lightwave digital ballasts and a huge carbon filter with insulated ducting and extraction. Room is sealed with reflective coating and extraction and ventilation are in order. For the seedlings I have a 24inch fluorescent tube (T8 or 12 I think).
To start with I have purchased some autoflower seeds and plan to germinate tonight.
I managed to afford this as my lovely, wonderful girlfriend allowed me to use our wedding money to do it. (the weddings in August) so that says a lot to me (amazed in fact) that she did that considering we can’t pay for anything now.
Wish me luck, I must say I feel really good but a little anxious at both the cost and the risk. If I can help a handful of people though it would be well worth it.
Peace

Good luck... set up sounds nice... may I ask, why autoflower??

all the best to you mate you sound like a real good person..............

I went with autoflower as it is the quickest quite frankly. I have grown before in Switzerland and although I love tending to the garden and have patience I thought that I wanted to try something a little quicker and different.
Plus I saw a grower in Cali, 215medicineman, who had used autos to great effect. In all honesty I have tried to carbon copy his grow room and method as his results were amazing. The only thing is that I can’t get Fox Farm or Kushie Kush over here.

Thanks for the luck

We can only try, and thanks

could have used normal strains and gone 12-12 from seed...........

Mmm interesting, was not aware that was an option. Have you tried this method? And would they give as much yield or even potency that autos?
Think I will give it a go if so.

Thanks

Just seen your sig, obviously it can be done then!
