The first thread most members write. Who you are, where you are writing from, what you grow or study or sell, and what you came to this forum to find out. Short is fine; the point is to make the next conversation easier.
Location does real work here. Almost every practical answer on this site, legal or agronomic, changes with the jurisdiction and the climate, so a member whose country is known gets a better answer in every other board. Saying what you already know is equally useful, since it saves people explaining the parts you have already done.
Two things worth knowing as you arrive. The forum is read in nine languages and every article is written once in English and translated by hand, so you can read and post comfortably in yours and the language switcher in the header moves the whole page. And the rules that apply everywhere apply here: no sales, no advertising of cannabis, and nothing aimed at countries where it is prohibited.
There are no reference articles in this sub-board yet, and there should not be; introductions are what it is for.
