Nope, I Am Not Growing Pot
I am your average dad, I like sports, eat food that my wife is pretty sure will kill me in just a few minutes and I like to work on the yard and garden. A problem I have is that I moved to a small New England Coastal town, this means beautiful spring, summer and fall but it also means harsh winters. I figured out a great solution to loving to garden and the cold winter, I simply bring everything in and place it around the house. I keep planting all year as well so I have a continuous supply of plants.
I have replaced most of the light bulbs around the house with grow lights, I have hand held misters and so on. This has really started to get a bit strange though, all of a sudden there is a big push towards legalizing recreational drugs, I really do not care how you feel about changing the law but please think about my "problem".
I do not smoke drugs or consume them in brownies or anything like that but people seem to think that if a guy needs 50 pounds of potting soil, grow lights, plant food and flower containers when it is 12 degrees F outside then I must obviously be doing something a bit illegal. I have shown people my tomato plants and sent them home with some fresh veggies and as they leave they meekly admit they thought I was probably up to growing something else but they are glad I am doing what I am actually doing.
So nope, I am not growing pot, I have no intentions to even if it became a legal activity, I simply like flowers and fresh vegetables all year round.
