MikeyDread From The Shed - Stone Grower from Canada
Graphic designer by day and ganja grower by night
Popped my first beans in the 90’s, started chucking in the 2000’s,

I trend to lean towards “older” strains but I like messing with the newer crosses also

Drop me a line if you need some custom art for your cannabis/breeding/seed projects…I charge nothing but positive karma and you can use as you choose no questions asked. My way of giving back to the community. Looking forward to connecting with all the great members here.

I figured my first ever OG post should be an introduction!

I am a grower in the US hoping one day to expand this hobby into a full time dream!
I have been a lurker in the cannabis scene a while now starting when I was younger with youtubers such as customgrow420, masterbong420, weedporndaily, and a bunch more I could list forever! My real interest in growing came after a few unsuccessful attempts when I discovered videos by Dr. Bugbee and Greengenes Garden (a lot more I am failing to mention) and the whole microgrowery community on reddit. I am still learning about this plant every day and the more I learn, the more I realize there is to discover! Lately I have been diving a lot more into breeder culture and history because I feel it would be very fulfilling, personally, to be able to work my own generations of plants that I can share with others! I have a few breeding projects I am taking on so that I can learn more, firsthand, about breeding and selecting parents.

Thanks to all the new OGs joining!

Welcome @MikeyDread I look forward to seeing your work! I’m sure you’ll find loads of inspiration here.

@CannaClique You’re in the right place, in case no one mentioned that yet.

@hoardedgenetics Good call. You probably just stumbled on a goldmine… take your time and read, read, read. There are generations of knowledge lurking on here that can both humble and empower those of us who aspire to one day contribute to further the development & preservation of this plant.

I am very glad I joined too @Purple-N-Hairy ! I’ll have to make a post for my current open pollination project and all if the mothers used! It was a spur of the moment decision because I ended up with thrips in my library from not quarantining a clone, a really stupid mistake, so I decided to just seed everything with two males from a Top Dawg line I really enjoyed! Hopefully it’ll let me keep around some of the genetics I would have most likely lost!

@ciganomarola This really is a goldmine! I am kind of disappointed in myself for not joining sooner!!! I really appreciate your comment, especially regarding the humbling and empowering aspect about previous generations of growers! I am really starting to realize the importance of respecting and learning from those before you as there really is only so much you can learn on your own! Hopefully I can eventually equally contribute as much as I receive from this community :slight_smile:

Hey everyone!

OZZZ here, I’ve been around various boards since the mid 90’s as OZ in one form or another… OZ, OZZ, OZZ_ etc etc…. Even lurked on OG way back then, although no one would know me from back then on OG as I mostly lurked.

Much of my time has been spent on ICMag, but the forum changes has made it tough to interact over there and I miss the participation of an open member forum so I thought I’d check out the new OG and see how it goes.

Currently working through ACEs Panama line.

Recently completed a pheno hunt, selected both red and green pheno keepers, and am now just starting a seed run to separate the red and greens in seed form (in soil). Also I’m re-running my Red keeper in a coco/autopot.

See you around :call_me_hand:
