You know you're a grower when...

If you're a man, you consider your self fairly "macho" and tuff... but you think to your self:

Awwwww... that's cute! It looks just like it's mother! It definitely has her traits...

when you see a low wattage HID bulb


<><><>

You walk into Toys R Us, and you become very interested in the squirrel cage blower that's inflating a small jumping house...

<><><>

You consider vast your experience and knowledge base of electrical multiplugs (power strip with many outlets).

<><><>

You start observing and indulging a little too much with plants you encounter throughout your day...

<><><>

You spend a farily considerably amount of time on boards.cannabis.com

<><><>

I'm out of them... ;) Hope you like!

Well, i do msot of them, which i never thought about.

Im always looking differntly at plants as im driving or walking around.

And im always looking at random things i could bodge into a fan or lighting or something...


And also i talk to my plants and play music to them lol

i love extension cords and plugs and adapters.. yummy....

: )

and i get sad when i see people spraying plant poison.. even on.. especially on weeds...

iloveyou

you can't go to hardware store without designing a system in your head...

you always buy a can of flat white paint or another 5 gallon bucket w/lid, or a few more 1/4" irrigation fittings...

turtle you know what I am talking about. lw

I've got more, but IgadahunnyDOO...lw

This is good. I thought I was just obssesive!

You know your a grower when you walk into your grow room at 9 am and walk out at 3pm and you thought it was an hour.

when you stare at your plants more than your WOMAN...

...The new glass pieces you're all excited about aren't glass pipes, but glass air stones...

...Plastic storage containers just don't look right without round holes in the lids....

...You make threads dedicated to naming alcoholic drinks after grow topics...

...You're more obsessed with the sex of your "babies" than Chinese parents...

...Cloning doesn't make you think of sheep or test tubes...

Howdy turtle,

I find myself always looking at hardware circulars and wallyworld circulars,for dual-use items..things that have one use..but could be used for growing instead. :D

I'd love to have on of them microscopes that they sell to kids,that hooks up to the computer too..just imagine the pics of trichomes one could git !

Have a good one ! :stoned:

One of the cannabis clubs has a huge microscope lens with a light on it. So you can look at the buds under it. It rocks.

Howdy Jdog,

Whoa ! That's just plain cool,man !

Have you seen that microscope that I was talking about ? The first time I saw one,it was displayed along-side other children's stuff,and it cost around 80 bucks or so,I believe.

Have a good one ! :stoned:

You still have 1 month easly of shit to scrape off THC wise and by that time next babys will be ready ahhhh...... Keef anyone? :smokin:

reminds me of myself, there's not a moment im not thinking about pot as i drive by a forest, trying to spot some out, lol.

I look at every cabinet or closet for where or how I would arrange a lighting system, or what kind of lighting would be usefull for the space available. Even rubbermaid storage bins arent quite the same anymore. A drawer chest. A nice looking ass, pretty much makes it all go away for a few seconds, then I get back to building the super duper imaginary grow box.:pimp:

lol...I don't look for plants in the woods. Because most likely if you go fuck with them you will get shot and killed. I wouldn't mess with someone elses plants anyway. It's bad karma,and it's stealing. And I am not a thief!
So stop looking for other ppl's plants. If you steal them, yours will most likely get stolen or screwed up somehow, from your bad karma. Only deserving ppl can harvest super good buds.Thats just my opinion though.

Growers learn Karma RQ and yeah that plant in the forest might be watched but man that didn't get there by accident, why you trying to fuck your fellow growers? :smokin: Grow your own leave others alone :smokin:

You know you're a grower when...

- you walk in a room calculating the amount of plants and materials yo can fit in there.

- you're subscribed too a professional indoor farmers magazine.

- your GF/BF doesn't want too go too another hardware store with you anymore.

- you play Scrabble and try to make the word FIM'ing.

You look at the magazine rack in your bathroom and it is full of hydro catalogs.
(Used to have Porn in bathroom)

Your freezer is full of bags of green trim, and your cupboard is full of Top Ramen. (I call it Hash Wannabe, cus when I have enough, I wanna make hash)

Ok those sound good in my head, but I'm baked this morning so I hope they didn't come out lame. LOL

;)

When the only way you could pass your botany test is by relating the information to what you know about pot.

When you don't care about lady bugs and praying mantis's crawling all over you.

Well, this is more about being impatient and obsessive, but when I've planted germinated seeds, I'll check them every hour or so, to see if they've sprouted, when I know they couldn't have possibly sprouted yet.

I've also spent an hour staring at my friends one month old plants. I can just look at plants forever and not get bored, just knowing what a great plant it is.

Okay, I finally a good one, this is what I do alot...
You know you're a grower when...

You are in the gardening section, buying soil, pots, etc... put it in your cart, buy some lights, alluminum foil, etc... (standard pot growing shit) and get paranoid that everyone in the store KNOWS what you're going to do with those materials... I mean, I sometimes seem to forget that there are other plants that use the same thing, lol...

you are a gardener when you can guess the type of bulb used in street lighting.

great one paparose...headlights too!

when...your whole weekend is ruined because some clones died...

I think most street lights are Metal Halide.

lol you must be thinking of the new street lights that are bright white
i remember thinking that the old ones that glowed orange and red were hps lamps lol they do look the same when looking at them have ya eva seen the actuall bulb they look quite similar with a screw fitting
cheers all :)

Ya, Now that I think of it. I see yellow and white street lights. And the yellow ones totally look like HPS. The white ones are Metal halide thouugh ,I'm pretty sure.

:thumbsup: that's funny... but i know exactly what you mean... i guess to me i dont exactly look like your Mrs. Smith planting roses in the garden.

I have walk in closets, but i dont grow in them....

You know if you are grower....

when you make SURE to turn on the closet light before opening the door. I do this time and time again, like there is something that is going to be harmed behind those doors.

You know you are a grower...

when you have more pictures of your little girls (plants) than your ONLY son

You know you are a grower....

when you find out you're pregnant you hope for a girl... then when your husband bitches at you for not doing the laundry, you have to tell him to stop cuz hes causing too much stress... and have to remind him "we do want a girl dont we"

LMAO! "causing too much stress... and have to remind him 'we do want a girl dont we' " LOL!
A variation of that could be "causing too much stress... and have to remind him that too much stress could cause a hermie... and we do want a girl don't we?!" lol

You see it rain and your first thought is of your plants getting a drink.

(outdoor growers only)

awww... this 1 came to me last night whle driving...

you know your a grower when....

your driving on the freeway and all the tress look like fluffy buds

You know your a grower when you see what other people are buying at the hydroponic store, and you know exactly what their going to grow : )-

When you're pulling weeds in your yard and as you pick each one up you try to judge how good of a life it's had by how it looks..

<3

You know you're a grower when...

You work in a factory, and one day you see a skid with 8 brand new 4oow mh light kits that your company bought to replace the old flourecents in the shipping dept. Then the next day there is a big meeting to discuss the disappearence of those lights.

They are HPS mate, at least around south east UK cos i have a mate who works for the people who go round putting new lamps in and cleaning them.

Altohugh we cant use them because they are something like 330 volts and our domestic is only 240 volts... i dunno why they have their own power line but oh well.

Altohugh some of the more yellow lamps around round abouts is LPS.
