NL#5 - Old habits and new toys

Well, here we go. First grow in a while, almost 10 years. Let's hope it's like riding a bike eh.

EDIT: This new endeavour requires a bit of prefacing. But i'll try to keep it concise and to the point.

After many lengthy discussions with a good friend about the inconsistent "scene" in my area, i let fly that "i used to grow and you didn't even know". Needless to say, he was a little ticked that i hadn't told him all those years ago. "You were a party animal pal, it only took a few shots for you to start drawing treasure maps to blackbeards loot. Anything for a good story".

He was a typical showman with a desperate need for attention back then, a friend but not a Friend.

Anyways, he's grown up as have i. He has a wife and kids, i have time and a passion for horticulture. This is what we agreed upon. He'd provide the space and i'd provide..... well..... everything else. Wish me luck.

Started germinating 5 NL#5 seeds from HighGrade Seeds on Dec. 16 . All 5 sprouted within 24-48 hours. Used the paper towel method. Off to a good start.

This journey actually begins here ---> http://forum.grasscity.com/sick-plan...-hid-burn.html in a thread i started to field some advice on the seedlings when they were 11 days old (germination time included) and continues to pictorially document the first 27 days. So the first pics are located there and i don't want to double post them here, so check it out and come on back. The rest of the journal (what there is to this point) will either be here waiting, or in the Q stationed for upload.

Chapter II coming soon....... very soon...... like as long as it takes me to roll a J and puff for a bit to some Sam Cooke. And yes my good 'ol friend Sam, "a change is gonna come" I can smell it.
