BUMPIN...I'd like to hear from more people as to WHY they grow...Love hearin the back stories!

summer hobby. it has fascinated me since the first time i smoked last october. i just want to know everything i possible can about weed, and growing has definietly been the best way, especially with all the reading i do here!
now i want to become a botanist and do research for better plants! i'm so motivated haha just have to find sponsors =P

How old are you, if you don't mind me asking? I will admit that there are times weed will just put me on my ass and I feel so lazy I'd wish I could stop breathing, but when I see my plants and I grow I just get so motivated no matter how stoned I am. It's good to see you trying to advance the industry and understand the process on new levels...Great work, thanks for sharing, and good luck with your dreams!

i'm 19, and i'll be a sophomore at college in september. prefer not to say which college, but i am studying chemical engineering and hopefully i will get some really good bio classes in too and learn all i can.

thanks for the reply! it's really nice to know people will support me.

Good luck with school bro, and good luck with all your advancements in growing. Some of the best weed I ever got was at school in NJ...you could be a campus hero...lol.

1. You get to smoke the shit you want and experience the high you want.

2. Hate the hassle of looking for weed when am out.

3. Weed is not good at all here and grams are not worth $20 here. They give you a small ass nug probably not even a gram.

4. Like to grow organic herb without all the chemicals. Bud just has not gotten any better than this. Taste and smell out of this world. I feel like eating the herb!!! People willing to buy all my supply but it's my herb to smoke and only reason i grow...

I don't grow yet but my motivations are:
1.Weed around here sucks.
2.I hate dealing with dealers.
3.I'd like my weed to be organic, flushed, and well cured.
4.The black market aspect. I don't like the thought of my money funding criminals.
5.I love to smoke a lot of weed.

Good points man...a lot of the bags I get definitely have tons of chemicals in them probably to speed up flowering times and get it on the street. I havent smoked fresh weed in a very long time and some organics would be nice...

I never even thought of that(#4). But one thing to think of is that some of those criminals may be on here and most of them probably arent criminals, just people tryin to make a living. The only reason anyone selling weed would be a criminal is because the substance itself is illegal...legalize it and millions of criminals go away...crime rates drop because theres 20% less drug related crimes...know what I mean. I have met my share of thugs that like to act tough but most of the pot I get are from people just lookin to get by...So I agree with you but disagree at the same time. All the rest of the points are spot on

Thanks for sharing and making me think!

I don't lose sleep over number 4 especially when buying good bud. But I've bought a lot of shwag that probably came out of Mexico. I don't think for a minute that selling/smoking is wrong. But because it is illegal,there are bad people that do it to make easy money. I don't like the though of giving bad people money. Its just something that gets fixed when you grow your own and I think it's a pretty good reason to grow.
