Little help for this noob?

It appears I am unable to start or make a post in my Grow Journal. I tried the Resources section and looked at the thread Becoming an Established Member... but apparently I cannot even read the entire thread so I don't even know what I need to do to become an established member (or what that even means!)

Thanks in advance for your help!

Make post get likes comment on other posts. All will establish you.

Thank you Dynamo
