Hi I'm Storm
been meaning to do this for a while, but only getting around to it now
I first came to Autoflowernet awhile ago as a pure newbie and I made many rookie mistakes but always had the attitude that all mistakes are lessons to improve future grows.
I learned a lot from the people here and my grows began to improve.

I used to have a few friends on here that I followed their grows and they followed mine, but it appears in my long absence they have mostly disappeared as I did.

In my absence I continued my grows and really dialled into my chosen ways and have returned here to help share some knowledge but also to continue to learn, and also to show off my plants compared to the almost embarrassing midget plants I was growing in my newbie days.

I love Sativas the most as an active high has more place in my life than a lazy stone, but I do also grow some indicas as I have sleeping problems and indicas are great for an evening smoke.

I grow in coco mixed with perlite, after much experimentation I found this to be the best for me, I still treat it like soil as I like to keep my grows simple, the simpler the better.
I stick to mainly organic feeds, I would love to claim to be pure organic but there are so many technicalitys to this and I am possitve I don't meet all organic qualifications.

I grow for myself, and myself alone, and prefer the natural fragrances and taste of marijuana that are lost with hydro chemicals, and lets face it dealer weed is grown for mass profit, not for great quality, seldom cured correctly, seldomly flushed correctly, often a harsh smoke with a chemical taste, this is just not for me.

I live in QLD Australia, unfortunately marijuana here is 100% illegal, and any form of legalization is not even on the agenda, I was diagnosed with depression in my early 20's and the medications are awefull and I am better off without them, the only thing that seems to help without any added negatives is marijuana, but I am not gonna claim I only smoke it for medicational purposes as I also love it in a recreation, its harmless fun, I hope some day I see the prohibition in QLD as well as Australia come to an end, Ive seen so many country's around the world wake up to the bennifits and actual lack of negatives to marijuana and I truelly believe that 50 years from now people will look back in history with shock that marijuana was illegal and many innocent people were punished for something that enhances quality of life for so many in so many different ways.

I am now in my early 30's, I am an artist, a lover or rock music and a movie fanatic, I love to be outdoors, I love to travel, I have worked my entire adult life and have never received a single cent of benefits or any other form of government handout, not that I judge those who have, I count myself lucky in this reguard. I never work under the influence of marijuana, I do not drive when I am high or stoned, though occassionaly will drive with a very slight buzz but I am sure if there was a legal limit to driving under the influence of thc I would be well under.

I like many people here live under the stigma of what people perceive stoners to be, perceptions from uneducated idiots who tend to smoke tobacco or drink alcohol heavily(or both) judging us despite science proving that both those vices do more damage not only to the individuals health but also to society in general.
I have never smoked a cigarette and I tend to only drink 2-3 times a year and even then its only a couple yet these idiots choose to look down on me because I choose to get high at appropriate and responsible times, each to their own I say, live and let live.
I don't put anything in my body without at least attempting to educate myself on it first, when doctor gives me a script, I google that shit before I purchase, I did my due diligence before choosing to try marijuana for my depression management and also for help with severe insomnia, I did not smoke my first bong until my mid 20's and soon fell in love with a product that succeeded in the management of both my depression and insomnia with the only side effect being it left me feeling fucking fantastic, where legal medications for both had servere side effects, left me feeling hung over in the morning, or simply only worked for a short time until my body got used to it leaving it ineffective.

I have rambled on a bit as I tend to do, I would like to end by saying Hi to all my fallow marijuana lovers and revolutionists and all round great people of autoflowernet and thank you all who have helped me and a thank you in advance to all those who will help in the future "AFN smoke out"
 
Welcome back mate from a newbie, I came back to MJ after a long break, been drinking a lot, it almost killed me, then I finally realized pot is the real shit, recreationally and medically, 100percent natural!
For us who don't live in the states, I don't think there is a big hope to see it legalized, anyway I prefer to think like this and if it will, good surprise!
Anyway good luck with your grow and again welcome back
:hug:

while going through my divorce I found myself dinking and smoking myself to numb coma every day, I realised I was on a bad path, and the hangovers were terrible, so I just stopped drinking
as far as legalisation goes, its not just a revolution within America but also in Europe, also marijuana legalisation is on the agenda for the next state election in Tasmania Australia, add to that in the A.C.T although not legal possession of less han an oz carries no punishment other than the confiscation of the weed and I am led to believe small quantities are legal in Sough Australia for medical use but don't know the exact laws there, so legalisation is gonna happen, eventually, at some point logic always wins
 
Welcome back Storms. Thanks for sharing. I'm sure that most of us would agree with you. Some of us live in enlighten areas, and other less fortunate souls (like you and me) live in areas governed by closed mind political idiots.

That being said, get off of your soapbox, roll a big joint, and mellow down mellow down.

Cheers mate
 
Welcome back Storm! I remember your grows :)

Good to have you back!
:d5:

Edit: I'll get you badged up! :)
 
Hey Storm, good to have you return to the fold. Now, that is how to do an intro! It's not rambling, it's interesting and gives us a feel for your personality. The same can be be said for having a decent avatar, it goes a long way to sharing a persons outlook.
I hope to see you around my Oz chum. eP.
 
I most certainly remember you and your grows and a noob like myself at the time we were learning and looks like we still are the art of growing! Its great to see old faces! :hugs: well again welcome back and looking forward to watching your new grows
:Sharing One:
