Well, MoonTang and just callme Mom, looks like we are in the same general neighborhood-I'm somewhere in the Oakham/Barre area- have a grow in progress(5 weeks) but Auto White Widows, so no seeds ,no clones. I would still suggest the overseas seedbanks(used Seedsman and Ams) Always get freebies, which helps offset the initial costs. Until I start next grow(orange Kush and maybe some original Skunk#1) These are photos ,so should get decent amount of Clones. Using Fem. seeds (in my mind) can save lots of time growing only to pop 1/2 males. How about sharing grow setups?
Mines essentially DWC with top feed(great when they havn't hit res yet and 2 300 wt. Led with 4 supplimental side Led. Next run will be big tent with Hid lights(3 600 wt.) and Rdwc once I figure plumbing.Have 8 bubblebuckets , but plan to connect all to control tank and 30+ gal. res.(sitting outside tent) to control res temps. Will use inline pump for same reason.My issue is sealing buckets,Uniseals vs. bulkheads vs male/female PVC fittings.Don't want to flood basement .Will use 1 1/2 vinyl tubing for return and 1/2- 3/4 tube for feed.(Want to be able to move about some.Will use float valve in control to gravity fed res.

Here's my girls @ 5 weeks drinking 2 Gal. per day running Gh Lucas @ 750 PPM and 5.8-6.0 Ph
Been scrogging And tying like crazy and finally evened out canopy.No deficiencies, just a little light burn when they were young.

So what we are working on is trying to find a place in central MA. Where some of us can meet for drinks coffee or food and shoot the shit and talk about everything and meet local like minded fellows. Maybe every other week and kinda make it a common thing munch. I think it would be cool to do so. I don't do nothing but work play dad and garden now. I never go out so this is something I'm really eating into and want to make this my lifestyle. We can all figure out what's a good day out of the week on a weeknight that works for all of us.

That sounds awesome. I want to become serious about growing also, dont get out much but for work, and have no one to talk with in person about growing

The sad thing is. No one just gives away clones anymore. Lol. It's turning into a supply demand market. I rem getting clones for free/5$ a piece like hot cakes around spring summer time two years ago even. Now with the new laws here. People are getting greedy and excited on the donation factor.

Fookers Like on leafly (plug) these bastards are charging crazy amount of donations for dry
Other than family, friends and those in medical need, why would I, or any reasonable person, give away something that took time, money and effort to do, has a high value and, probably most importantly, still has federal legal ramifications? I'm a nice guy, but if there's risk involved, it's not going to be free. I'm not going to mine gold and give it away, just because you like mining gold ....:-|. I've said it before, probably on this thread, don't let state legalization lull you into false security. Once there's no market because of either saturation, or federal legalization, I'll hand out my extra clones on the street corner.

I've accepted donations just to cover my time and materials, but then there were all the dumb questions I usually needed to answer, most people I ran into had done no research and never grew anything. I started telling people $50/hr for grow consultations, which stopped all the random calls about what to do. Just like when I have a transaction with a stranger involving automotive parts, don't call me back about how to install it, or what it does. After the last incident where the guy (again) didn't have any knowledge of growing, no setup and then put them on a window sill in December...:dunce:, and about a dozen "what should I do" phone calls, he wanted a refund when they croaked. I won't gift clones anymore, I got sick of putting in the work to send then to there death.

Hi, I'm a Masshole, if ya didn't notice:bigjoint:

I am also a fellow masshole who loved hearing the news on dec 15th. Day before my bday too. Best present ever. Lol still would grow if theu didn't legalize it but that's beside the point. I got a question. I purchased some autoflower seeds (blue dream) cuz I was curious I've never grown autos before. They shot right up real fast but they don't seems to have many leaves. Is that normal?
