I grow so that i dont risk my life by going and getting any off the streets and also so that i dont have to pay the outragous prices.
i grow coz i luv it :) not coz its illegal n im a rebel n shit lol, i luv growing plants, no matter wat they are. but weed is such an impressive plant to grow with many rewards :)
im thinking a lot of people grow for the same reasons...
i grow beacause its a very rewarding hobby, being good at growing any plant is a good thing for lots of reasons.i think its a positive and productive thing to do.
also i get lots of incredibly cheap weed, which has three benefits,
the first being that i dont have to mix with criminal types to buy any and all the problems associated with mixing with criminals.
i dont have to pay silly prices.
and i wont lie, i sell to close friends at good prices, which is good for them and good for me as it pays for production costs and helps take the sting out of any unexpected bills like car repairs or whatever.
everyones a winner! lol
and a theoretical benefit lol... if the worlds economy suddenly collapses ( not an outrageous theory what with all the wars and trade sanctions and the middle eastern oil wars that are going on ) theres riots in the supermarkets as supply chains dry up, how many average people could grow thier own food? thats a pretty valuable skill if the worst was to happen lol.
yeah i grow for myself as ive seen to many people put so many chemicals in there crops to get bigger profits but the shit just fucks with your head like one of my old dealers spraying the buds on drying with fly spray, what the fuck is that, its there way of selling what they think is a good high, but really it just messes with your mind and makes you go crazy....
growing for yourself is far more rewarding, cheap and you can cover all your costs.. get smoko that you know is safe.. its a really interesting hobbie and dont have to deal with people who abuse the plant.......
dude so true alot of people put fly spray or hair spray on the buds they are selling... i truly have no idea why.. anyway i grow so i dont have to pay for it or die because i smoked some retarted fools hair spray!!
ive never heard of fly spray being used, thats both sick, and pointless.
the chemicals used in fly spray are VERY poisonous, it dosent affect humans purely because we are millions of times bigger than flies, so they only need a small dose to kill them.
sounds like an urban myth to me, why would somone put time and effort into growing nice ( even commercial grows need to be reasonably good )plants and spray them with concentrated poison?
sorry, but i dont buy that for a second, anyone selling that on a commercial scale, would either be killed by thier outraged customers, or die from fly spray inhalation, or at least develop some nasty tumours or somthing.
well baby it happens prob cuz there grow is shit, some people are just out for a quick buck, but yeah i dont think it happens very much but i surely do know of it..
I'm old enough to remember buying decent ounces for $40, the days when a dime bag cost $10 and was a quarter ounce. I endured the price rises for a while, but when shwag started costing $150, that's where I drew the line, and decided I'd either produce my own or go without. I went without for around 3 years, then gave in, did the research, learned what I needed to learn, built what I needed to build and, finally, ordered some decent genetics and planted some seeds.
It's not solely to get high for me. Well, for ME, that's what it is. But the woman has a variety of medical issues, including terrible insomnia, and pot helps her sleep, with far fewer side effects, than the various pills which her doctor prescribed (which not only have side effects, but are also addictive). There are also some studies that hint at pot's potential ability to thwart some cancers, and to help osteoporosis (which the woman has). Seeing some of the things that pot can help with, medically, I wish I had started growing years before I did. But on the other hand, our house burned down last year, so I'm glad I had nothing growing at the time, because that could've been bad; the insurance company was dick enough to deal with without that complication.
because we can ... :DQuote:
