Hey y’all, figured I’d share a little bit about what’s been going on in my life. I finally proposed to my lady (she’s great), and we both took a week off work for a trip over to California! We’re spending a few days in San Diego, and a few more near the LA area but I’ll be out of town until Dec 14/15th on our little vacation. It’s been a great trip so far, but I probably won’t be super active on here besides responding to people. If you happen to know about some cool stuff that I should check out while I’m here, let me know! Much love to everyone!

Thanks for joining! I'll be using this Skool community to provide tons of free education, resources, and support for as many people as I can. That being said, it is a work in progress. So feel free to reach out anytime with questions, suggestions, or any feedback. The goal is to have the "Classroom" as an all-inclusive resource to refer back to whenever you have questions in your grow. The sections are separated according to how in-depth you want your answers to be, and I'll be slowly building them out over time. If you have something you want answered, reach out to me directly and I'll get you taken care of (and fast track the information being provided in the Classroom section). At the same time, this is also a great way to connect local growers & like-minded individuals. You'd be surprised how many people are doing awesome things in your own town. Please use it as a space to share ideas, connect with others, and learn! Quick intro poll . . . What's your experience level growing?

I've done a lot of thinking recently about why different people get into growing. For some, it's all about having access to affordable cannabis. Others it's all about pursuing quality. And for a surprisingly large chunk, they do it just for the fun of growing a cool plant that they used to not be able to (you'd actually be surprised how many people grow weed and don't consume it or do anything with it besides give it away). But I want to know, what makes YOU want to start growing? -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- For me personally, I've always had a mild interest in cannabis. When I started consuming for the first times it was just something fun to do and try out. Over time I got exposed to the crazy world of different strains with different smells, tastes, effects, etc and thought it was super cool how varied of an experience you can get, and how certain weed could be tailored for certain things. What really changed my view was getting exposed to some of the really high end cannabis . . . I'm talking weed that's sold for $500+ / oz and that's if you're even able to find it (it sells out remarkably quick from the growers / brokers). I still remember some of those batches of "special" weed that totally changed my perspective of what cannabis is, and what it can do. Some of the smells blew me away, and instantly had me recognize certain scents with things I've smelled previously in life in super specific ways. It's kind of hard to describe but I'm talking weed that smells like soggy fruit loops at the end of a cereal bowl. Not fresh fruit loops. Not fruit flavored smell. But identical to the end of that cereal bowl. It gets weirdly specific and it's really hard to describe, but if you've ever had a similar experience you'll understand what I mean. Something just clicks in your brain and brings back a memory. The taste was the same way. I realized that you can consume weed and not get that "shitty smoke taste" in your mouth (once again the only way I know how to describe it). I found myself constantly wanting to try more and the joint getting tastier the further down I got and sometimes changing flavor. This is a really hard one to understand as well unless you've had it, but there's some weed that can literally taste like candy and coats your mouth with that flavor.
