Oh boy. Well then here we go.
I go by Billyk here, that’s the name I’ve had since CompuServe days. That’s pre internet as we know it! I’m known as WWWillie in most canna circles but somehow that didn’t work here, no matter. I’m just happy to be here!
Me in 1982!!!
I love to grow, it makes me happy. It makes the folks I give it to happy too ! ! My profession forces me to comply with the laws in my state so I have to give away a fair amount, but then how cool is it to turn folks on!
I’m heavily involved in another canna site and most of my sponsors come from there. It’s all over my room and stuff. I love it there and I’ve been there for 9 years now. I found this place, looked around a bit and thought I’d stop in and say hello. I have no agenda, I just wanted a low pressure, happy, fun sharing of my growing, away from having to produce for my sponsors. I hope that’s ok with the Admins, and mods.
Due to life and family stuff I had to give up using and anything else canna related. When it became legal in my state I immediately found out how to get my medical card and the rest is. . . Well here we are.
I built a room in my basement to accommodate my passion. It’s been evolving for some time now. I used to have tents but have since moved to an open format.
Here’s some pictures:
Welcome to my Grow Room. Apologies for the mess, but I am a fairly hectic person. I love organization but have a hard time reigning in the chaos.
Filtered water is a must have. I’ve gone the RO and distilled route but there is absolutely no buffering in those so my tap water with the chlorine and crap filtered out there is still some alkaline for buffer in there.
It just occurred to me that I need to be clear what is sponsored, etc. I will be sure to to let you know. First and bigly I do not have any nutrient sponsors, everything I use is my own, purchased by me. Beans and lights. . . Well I’ll be sure to let you know.
I use Oregon’s Only Nectar For The Gods line of nutrients. I follow what they call the Roman Regimen. It’s 14 bottles!
To make life easier I invested in a “Stirracane” heavy duty magnetic mixer. So, so worth it. This is it, the black bucket underneath. Also my watering wand. I have to say that plumbing the filtered water into my room was among the top things I’ve done in there.

I buy in bulk to save a bit.
Some of the additions I also use:
Here’s a few shots of my garden, environmental controls and such, as it is anyway. . .
