I very rarely ever post anything, but I've been lurking online forums since they first appeared on the interwebs.
I really like the vibe of this forum from what I've seen so far. I recently discovered this forum and recognized several people from other forums and started poking around. I have felt that way about other paces only to watch them devolve into a complete shit show.
About me, well I've been growing since the mid 80's in SoCal. Back in the day I never knew what strain I was growing, I'd just pop bagseed and hope for the best. Most of the time I was successful since the bags were always the best of the best. Most of my early years were done outdoors but for the past 20yrs or so I've been mostly indoors. I don't have a lot of space, my veg box is 3' x 2' x 6' tall with a 250W MH, and my flower room is 4' x 4' x 6' running a 1kw HPS.
I used to pheno hunt until I found a keeper and then I'd just run that until I got bored of it. I ran ChemD for 8yrs at one point. But these days I prefer to make my own seeds and as such I rarely keep any one cut around for more than a year and that is usually so I can hit her with multiple males.
I've bought a lot of seeds over the years and have a nice collection of what I consider the basics. My goal when I buy seeds is to open pollinate, then go through the F2's to find what I like. I have found the F2 generation to be where it's at when it comes to finding something special. As such most of the crosses I've made are from F2 stock, not the original F1's I purchased.
Anyhow, just wanted to introduce myself. I may not post much, but I'm here quite often and really enjoy reading and seeing you guys work. It's amazing how there are so many different ways to get the job done, every grow environment is unique and amazing.
Happy Holidays All!!
