Hello Steemit!!! Happy 4:20 pm (it's 4:20 somewhere). I am Bitnerd! I am a Medical Marijuana patient and have over 8 years experience with growing!

           

I have struggled with PTSD for over a decade. I was one of those patients that absolutely nothing would help. I've been through a cornucopia of psychiatric medications only to be disappointed from the lack of relief or downright ill from the horrible side effects I was faced with. Marijuana has been the only thing that actually works for me, it gives me very little bad side effects while relieving a major portion of my symptoms. I am no longer struggling to get through the day due to mass amounts of anxiety. I am able to eat and sleep on a more regular basis and I no longer plan out my day in order to avoid the most amount of people. I am majorly thankful for the opportunity to utilize Cannabis as a medication and feel like it has given a major portion of my life back.

The funny thing is, Medical MJ has also given me another giant gift: A hobby! Something that I would've never been interested in if it wasn't for my Medical Cannabis Card. I love growing my own medication! I treat it as if it is my own laboratory and am constantly striving to learn more about my plants and how to get them to grow faster and yield more. I have gone from starting out with soil plants and seeds to a perpetually-harvested Hydroponic Scrog grow. Sounds fancy, I know!! It was quite the upgrade. I was able to decrease the amount of time between harvests by over 50%! This meant a harvest every month.

My goals with Steemit: As I progress I plan to share many gardening guides with the Steemit community! I will teach you how to completely grow from start to finish, each guide showing a step of the way. After that, I'll show you how to cure your buds and then process portions of your harvest into old school half melt hash or honeycomb BHO wax that is sure to produce some major couch-lock!

Alright ladies and gents, that is it for now. I thank you for your time!Load up your pipe and puff away as you enjoy some pictures of my garden and recent harvests :)

It was a pleasure to meet you all!

Bitnerd

Thank you for bringing this to my attention, your wish is my command. It is up now, first image on the page. Thanks :) PS- Different plant generation, but same veg tent, lights, buckets (I guess it doesn't show the buckets well enough). Should be more than enough to show that the are in my possession. Also, a quick google search of any of those images will show they've never been on the internet before now. :P

You're all good man ;) Just helping things along as we build this awesome community. I'm already taking notes and I am very excited to get back into growing one day. I used to have a 28 site AERO system (sprays the roots etc) hooked up to a big reservoir but I probably will not have that much room in the future. I also had a much bigger habit then :P

Your pics really give me amazing ideas and I thank you for that. I am certainly going to follow you and your work. For now I am focused on being a #glassblower, and if you would like to see my mentor and follow a few hyperlinks to my glass story (like the giveaway/intro) then check out this.

I will be doing another giveaway in about a month if you are interested.

Keep up the great work!

Hey man that's sweet, I am glad to hear that!! I thank you for the compliments. You should totally get back into it :) I know that in the future the Medical/Legalized marijuana industry will be huge and if we position ourselves correctly the profits could be enormous. My goal was to learn as much as I can as fast as possible in order to produce the absolute best product and then go from there. Sadly, in the state I'm in, It costs around 125k just for the dispensary license and that doesn't even include rent + gardening equipment/nutes. It'd be on expensive endeavor that I full heartedly plan to pursue in the future, when my bank account is big enough haha. :P Tbh, I'm looking into moving to another state that has a little less high of a entry barrier, such as Michigan or Cali. That is probably my best bet.

Glass blowing is sweet, one of my old friends was into that stuff. I used to get him to make new pipes for me each and everytime I broke mine (which is alot) haha. I'd love to learn how to blow glass, I've always been curious in the logistics of moving pipes after they are blown. Have you tried Ebay? Did it work?

Keep it up dood, I will be watching. I'll check out those links :)

High grade dank. Nice pics 😎

Thanks brother :) Puff puff pass

PS - Sorry for the picture sizing, when I was creating this it made it seem like all my pictures would be above/below eachother if they were over 500 Pixels, now come to find out it's much larger than that. Sorry ladies and gents!

Where is @berniesanders ?

haha, at the FBI head office raising hell about how Hilary stole the nomination from him. I love you Guccifer.
