50 years and still smoking

[growsinse79]

2026 will make 50 years since my first puff - And I'm still not a heroine addict. Hey guys, what year was your first toke?

Late 70’s, I didn’t succumb to peer pressures early.

I rarely use any drugs, prescribed or otherwise. But if desperate or it’s deadly I’ll try.

Mushrooms I’ve been given twice as birthday gift and another occasion. Otherwise just in the late 70’s early 80’s.

1978 for me I did quit in 1987 for a little more than a year but reason for that was really good cocain other than that still burning bud

Probably started smoking around 1972, but didn't start growing until 1988. I started smoking to help me sleep, and I started growing because all the available smoke, even the expensive stuff, was bunk.

 

[Chemistry]

1975, can't toke any more, but still at it.

 

[Beachwalker]

Smoking in the late 60's, growing in 87

Much respect for my fellow growers who also grew under the mandatory minimum laws.

Started smoking ~'79, growing ~'82. but there was incredible bud available if you were willing to pay and lucky enough to know the right people. We had wicked roadkill skunk that was reportedly from Burma and cared for for years by vets who smuggled home some seeds. Yields were low, mites devastated it regularly, but when it was successfully grown it was amazing. One of them was a pervert who was flirting with my 13 year old neighbor friend who robbed him and sold me fat joints for a buck. He had several strains he was working and they were very psychedelic and potent. I used to manage a grow for a guy who had one of the skunk Burma strains, but he went to the Netherlands and got NL, and Early Skunk and ditched the real skunk. NL was nice, but nothing like the skunks.

I think I have you all beat.....so far.....summer of1968 I started with LSD then once high I could smoke pot, it made me gag & cough at first but once high on acid I could smoke like a chimney. I've had about a 1-2 year break from weed back when my hips were so bad I was on fentynal & hydromophone and couldn't walk or tend plants......but I'm back with a vengeance. I've been growing pot indoors close to 30 years using Promix type peat based soils & General Hydroponics the whole time

Gonna be 49 next month and I just gotta thank everyone for making me feel young today. I smoked for the first time with an old neighbor when I was 16 in 1993, didn’t even get a buzz the first time. The quality of the weed was terrible it was brown seeded Mexican brick weed.
