Getting Growing Lights 1st Time

So my first time growing was is grade 8. I was young but I had a mentor, not a good mentor mind you but somebody to push my love of growing forward. My cousin was living with my family because he had run away from his home in California at the age of 18 and he needed money fast. He was the guy who first put the thought in my head that growing weed was a possibility, after all its just a plant right? We've all grown bean plants in class since pre grade school.

My first growing experience started with a setup which #1 was the best indoor location I've ever had and #2 and worst setup I have ever had. In my childhood house we had a spare room that was fully packed with junk. By fully packed I mean you could open the door and that's about it. Conveniently enough this room also had a closet which was to be my first grow room. My cousin and I bought 10 KC33 seeds from a seed shop downtown and germinated them with instructions from the internet. Planted them in red Dixie cups and watched them grow as we used a 600 watt halogen light... This would be our first mistake.

Halogens produce not the right light spectrum and too much heat for a grow. We were set on switching to HPS. (High Pressure Sodium) Yeah we were cheap, we were students so we stole those first lights. We took bolt cutters and wrapped the handles in foam and wore giant gloves and just clipped security lights off of a local school. The light show was awe inspiring and exhilarating. The rush was like none other I ever experienced. I was blinded by electrical fireworks displays as my cousin stood stern on the roof of the school giant bolt cutters in hand. Knowing that I had to catch these lights was stressfull to say the least. We got those lights, and nobody was hurt, luckly.

We got away with it yeah but some would say it was not worth the risk. Some would also say that experiences shape a person. I would agree with the latter. We grew some awesome pot in my mothers house in a large closet without her knowing. If that's not successful what is?
Ma, please don't be mad at me.

Chronicdata.ca Launch

doode.
So to go along with this blog I am starting a website called Chronicdata.ca
It is going to function as a eMarketing test for me as well as a space to put all of the information I have amassed over the years. There is no shortage of weed growing information on the interwebs however how convenient is it that there can be a one stop shop for all new growers? Well I think it is. To sign up is free and for all those who are SEO inclined when you post an article you have the chance to provide a dofollow link. For all those who are less SEO inclined, you can link to whatever you would like effectively promoting it. If anybody has any questions about growing comment and I will defiantly help you out. I am here to help you.

Assumptions About Dreads

So this is going to be quick and dirty.
I have dreadlocks, and I love them. At times yeah they can get messy and annoying, fall into my peanut butter and crackers but they are my babies. People often make assumptions about my hair though. Walking down the street I get, “you got papers?” or “got a light” probably more often than the average individual. Or maybe I’m just losing it, or maybe everyone gets asked as often as I do. Anyways, the assumptions they make are true, I smoke. So why am I upset. It is because the fact that I smoke does not define who I am. It does not change my personality, the way I think or my work ethic. It is hair, only little pieces of protein filament that grows out of my scalp. Some people don’t have hair, how should we judge them. Can we judge them on the fact that they don’t have hair?
