i'm 48 so i don't quite qualify. when i was 14, instead of going to the youth club, i jumped on the bus, went into town, bought a ticket and saw ac/dc. met a bloke outside afterwards and smoked a number with him. turned out to be bon scott. my first ever joint. thanks bon, may you forever rest in peace my friend

^^ Bon Scott! I got nothing like that to tell. 54 and getting back into it after a 20 year time out. Love growing it almost more than smoking really but smoking aint bad either.

Lots of geezers are starting again after not smoking for a long time. Wait, I am a geezer?

I thank California law for allowing me to grow or I would still be stoneless. I would not just buy off a dealer at this time, no way.

57 and been growing buds for about 40 of them...dont see any reason to stop now, especially since its now legal and I am a cardholder. Still just as much fun as when I started growing in my dads cornfields so many years ago. All the new snake oils and gimmicks are for suckers with too much money. MJ is still just an annual and should be grown as such.....

ditto that. i didn't start smoking weed till i was 33. i didnt start growing weed till two years ago. but i've been in the hort biz for 20 years. i'm 52 now. i think i've just about grown everything else but weed till then. that's why i find it so easy. so many comparisons.

Newbie chiming in from the Green Mountain state of Vermont USA ! Just over half way to the finish--- 52 years old and just getting a new start on trying my hand at being a green thumb. About 4 months ago i got sick of taking medication in order to sleep at night. Tried some of todays weed and BANG! Slept through the night. I remember the 1970,s and the crap that i would occasionally smoke. Burnt my throat, made me friggin paranoid and stopped after a couple of weeks. Decades later here i am. I have a plant from donated seeds. Only one decided to grow. Its about 1 foot tall ,maybe 12 leaves. Outside grow in a 2 gallon pot. 2 dead fish covered with about 1 inch of soil. Placed those in the 2 gallon pot hen i transplanted the plant about 4 days ago. Now let see what happens! Not much of my body involves having a green thumb! Ive seen a couple of Vermonters onboard so mabe over time i can learn a bit! Thanks for the site and any info provided!
Did I read this correctly? U Have 2 complete, dead fish in a 2 gal pot w/ balance of soil +/ 1" above the fish? JMHO but I think you'll find that to be way too rich for a plant to thrive. the decomposition will yield too much bacterial and Nitrogen let alone the other pathogines and insects that will plague you. Fish emulsion is a lot different, but I might be wrong...

Before all the hi tech ferts we have nowadays I always used fish. Mostly shit fish crappies perch etc..Had some killer growth from fish. Didn't ever go for the miracle grow thing even back when. Fish for veg. Bat shit for flower. Back in the day.
