Long time smoker, first time grower! I am a new grower from the Lake Anna area of Virginia. VA just became legal for four plants in July, so I decided to jump in the deep end and go straight to hydroponic/DWC. I have 'helped' with soil indoor grows with my brother and father (yes, my 70 year old father who has never smoked in his life, but is growing for my mom for pain relief). I am starting with four plants, but I have my wife and 17yo son helping me out, so we are each growing our own plants. We are really excited to see where this goes. A bit nervous as well ;)

Here are our first four plants. The two on the right are 16 days old, and the other two are 10 days old.

I am really glad I found this forum and am looking forward to sharing my grow with you guys. Thanks in advance for all of your help.

@buckaclark , I grew up in Fredericksburg but spent a lot of time on the lake as well. Good times. I am too old to do all those crazy things (knee boarding, skiing, etc), but I still enjoy taking the kayak out once in a while :)

An update from the grow tent...

Well, I am two weeks into flower now, and still learning. Here is a current picture, two days after defoliation:

A family effort , I like that. Oh you are going to have some fun ! For a first time weed farmer, I must say you jumped in with both feet. I think even veteran growers have their nervous moments, I still do after growing for about 50yrs. ( I'm your dad's age, 68 actually). Don't ever get discouraged , shit happens sometimes. Welcome to a den of lively weed fiends , lots of great people. Oh, make sure to keep " Yellow Stickies" on hand .

Thanks @StonedGardener , I am trying to roll with it as much as possible. Oh, I have not had a problem with bugs (yet), and I have carbon filters on the intakes on the tent, but I still have plenty of yellow stickies!
