    Wink Hello all!

    Hi everyone!

    I thought I would nip in to say a quick hello!

    I'm new to the forum and also new to growing, I am just in the process of buying the equipment I need to get things going (seeds, soil and pots on the way, I'm also going to get a separate shed, grow tent, lights, fans, vent etc but thought I would ask for some advise about those just to make sure I am on the right path with everything I have read!) and can't wait to start this new journey!

    I'm 34 years old but live with a variety of chronic diseases which mean I am now a fulltime wheelchair user and one of which I was told made me a terminal case 3 years ago and I was given a 50% chance of surviving 5 years and whilst I put a brave face on with the outside world and say I will be inviting everyone to my 80th birthday party I am also acutely aware of giving myself the best quality of life I can to enjoy the time I have with my family and one of the biggest parts of that that I can control is having effective pain relief. I am prescribed medical cannabis privately but at a whopping £200 A MONTH and unable to work there is just no way I can afford that so I'm going it alone!

    I'm feeling really positive about this exciting next chapter because it really feels like it is giving me some control over a situation I have such little control over. I think cannabis is a wonderful gift to us from the natural world and I'm passionate about getting it legalised in this country although sadly I think we are still a long way off that yet! You just have to look at how successful the legalisation of cannabis has been in America (in the states that have done so) and it blows my mind that we haven't followed suit already in this country!

    If anyone on here is involved in any campaign groups I would love to hear from you and learn more!
