Up here I have a friend who have been growing outdoors on a commercial scale for many years. I don't see much of him, or many of my other old pals anymore. I do know a couple of other friends who grow a guerilla crop each year, with mixed results. It's fun to compare notes during the grow season.

I know this guy from the pool where we (wife and I) swim. He has MS and wheelchair bound, for the most part. We always talk about the old "hood" (we both moved here from Boston area). We talk politics (we're progressive types). We talk food and gardening. So, I turn him on to my hot peppers and hot pepper sauces. He digs that stuff a lot. As he's been active in med pot politics, where he always sends me e-mails for the cause, I figured he likes a smoke. So, I gave him a bunch o' buds on a branch in his bag of dried peppers! lol He digs that! So I e-mail a pic of the "winter garden" and he's blown away. He says that he has a "winter garden" too! COOL!

Someone to have a beer and yap for hours with about all the stuff you can't talk to your 'regular' friends about? Someone who will lend you equipment if yours breaks? Someone who will always be there to replace your genetics if you go down or have to bail? And if you don't .... HAve you tried to get a friend into the hobby? Rating: 5
