Yup.. I joined some time ago, back in 07. I finished my first successful grow. I finished my first successful grow. Some shit happened in Toker's Den, couple of us got banned. I found the IG page and sent a DM. Response was "unbanned". And here I am.

After getting banned, found a home at The Canna Cabana and did anotherstill my favorite grow.

Had some family issues, shut down in 2010. Didn't get back to growing until a couple years ago. Loving the LEDs. I remembered the testing they were showing on this very site back then. Love the tents too.

I ended up getting a 2-in-1 (2x3, 53 in tall) because I read and was told they had light leak problems. If there's anything we can do, from back then, is deal with light leaks. More on that later.

I got some autos from Mephisto and I F'd up the seeds but got the last two, freebies, to harvest. They looked really good but no smell, no taste, and NO HIGH. It was a remembering and learning experience. I literally forgot I preferred peat sponge, not peat pellet. I did remember I didn't want rockwool lol.

Next grow God Bud, got a BOGO deal from Seed Supreme. This is where the real test for me began. I felt good and comfortable. Ended up getting another 2x4 tent because I was really trying to run 4 plants in a 2x2 lol. It came out ok. The plants in the 2x4 hermied BUT the 1 plant in the 2-in-1 did not hermie. And, that's with me keeping cuts with lights on 24/7. Them old skills kicked in. Unfortunately, didn't secure the 2x4 well enough. Smoke was decent and got some decent reviews.

Current grow is the other 4 seeds of God Bud. I'm trying to go perpetual. I was supposed to before but I had to move. I'm on Week 9, Flower Week 5 in the 2x4 and Week 4 in the 2-in-1. Got a few hermies in the 2x4 again but not as bad as last time.

I wanted to throw it away BUT I'vedecided something different. I'm either getting another tent OR flipping this 2nd bedroom to a whole flower room. The 2x4 will be put on its side to get a 2x6, 4 ft tall with the goal of using that to run my veg to support the numbers I need for about 12 to 16 plants, maybe 20.

Since almost all of us are legal, I am more comfortable sharing/attaching my social media - @anthonytaurus. If you want to see more pics and video, hop to IG. I got anfew things on YouTube even from way back then. FB is there. Imgur. Pinterest. My Twitter got hacked so I'm trying to get it back. TikTok is a bust.

Anyway, here are some pics. If there is wood in the pic, that's old pics lol. Rest of it is recent. Specific grow pics, check them links. Plenty of grow pics lol
