Introduce Yourself @OG (Part 1)

Hi OGers, I’m Dirt_Wizard, a personal use homegrower from New England. Started growing last year during the pandemic to save money and give myself something to do, this is going to be my first indoor season where I start early enough to get a few rounds in, and so far so good! I grow in living organic soil mix that I’ve recycled once so far to good effect, and have been having great luck so far with a pair of HLG B and R spec lights for veg and flower, along with some Solacure tubes for UV. My interest is mostly in sativa hybrids, especially Cinderella 99 and other Jack Herer descendants, along with Durban. Always looking for a new daytime, inspirational strain and those really do it for me. I’m also interested in starting to save some pollen this year from males and try F2ing some of the seeds I’ve collected, along with growing out some accidental seeds I made my first grow (timer mishaps!) and seeing what the crosses look like, since I actually loved both of those strains for different reasons (Hazeman’s LA Pure Kush and @Guammainian Gardens’ Chamhaole). I’d also like to get involved in the seed preservation co-op as I learn more about indoor growing and breeding, since I think it’s an exciting and unique community.
