Live Stoner Chat FNG Reporting!

Hello AFN, I'm new to autoflowers, and only have a few photoperiod grows under my belt. I am 35, and had plenty of experience with Cannabis in my younger years, but then I joined the Army, had a family, and never expected I'd ever go back to it. In 2009 a lot changed when I had a partial parachute collapse in a training exercise. I ruptured two disks in my back, and essentially mangled my left shoulder(circumferential tear of my rotator cuff, broken clavicular head, and torn biceps tendon). That day to this day has been 1,983 pain filled days. I've been on several pain medications, and none of them does as well what Cannabis can, setting aside the issue of side effects and long term damage the pills are inflicting.

Anyway, that's why I'm here, I've had success with Cannabis in managing my pain, and I want to be responsible for my own medicine. Professionally I'm a server farmer. My hobbies include internet spaceships, reading, and now this

It's great to be here, and I'm looking forward to hanging out and learning.

Welcome to the fam, you've come to the right place, Love the avatar!

 

[Trapper]

First off, Thanks for your service.

Second, I feel your pain....literally. 43 here. Herniated L5-S1 and torn labrum and rotator cuff on my right shoulder. Much rather use a plant
than a pharmaceutically engineered, under tested lab concoction with tons of adverse side effects.

In the same boat as you, just about 3 weeks sooner.

Cheers and Welcome! Hooah! (Unless, as a civilian, I'm not allowed to use that term...in which case, no hooah, but still cheers and welcome!)

Thanks all. Always great to find like minds.

Thanks Torched, that is my EVE-O character.

Sorry to hear you're in the same boat Trapper, however you got there And thanks for the sentiment, it's not why I did it, but it's always nice to hear. I've been out for about two years now so I'm as civi as they come.

Welcome aboard, Medi! Sorry to hear about the accident and recovery. My uncle was 82nd Airborne and did a stint in the Golden Knights back in the 80s, & he busted himself up pretty badly as well. Sudden impact with the ground or other solid objects is no bueno... Thanks for your service & I'm sure we'll be able to serve up plenty of good growing advice in return. Many autoflower strains have great pain relief qualities, so check out our medical forum if you haven't already. See you around! :Sharing One:

That's awesome Andy I was in the 82nd as well. I have a buddy in the Golden Knights now, we started out in the same commo shop together. I'm interested in trying some Think Different in my next grow, I hear it's pretty good for medical application. For now I'm growing some Royal Queen Northern Lights Auto. I'll probably throw up a post about it. Thanks for the advice on finding the Medical forum, I'll get a better look at it. Peace
