There are four people in my family who cultivate cannabis: My mother, my two older brothers (i have a little brother, too, but he is only 8 ) and myself. My oldest brother, Billy, has been growing for many years, and Chris and I never knew. He has always been very private. I think that maybe that comes from his time served with the US navy. Maybe it's because he grew up in a small house with 7 people in it (Adam wasn't born until after Billy moved out, and our cousin Amy and her husband Adam, different Adam, lived with us).
Mom grew weed in the woods on her property, and we always knew about that. But when we found out that billy grows, too, we must have decided at the same time to begin cultivation. He learned of my plans, and shared his plans with me. We began exchanging ideas and researching (Chris is a little fuckin' genius. His IQ was tested at 123 when he was only 11 years old, so he learns very quickly, and he has always been a bookworm. Unfair advantage), and we started bumping heads a lot. He wants to be like a mad scientist, and I just want to grow good pot. We tried many times to help eachother, but we both kept bumping heads, coming up with 'better' ways to do things. And so the rivalry was born.
We use the same pseudonyms, we agreed to share seeds, but we are not allowed in eachother's grow room, or to see eachother's journal until the final harvest.
I see guys up here all the time bumping heads. There is some spite and hostility going on, but you guys, for the most part, conduct yourselves like civil adults, from what I have seen, putting your differences aside for the greater good. I simply don't have that kind of patience, lol. Of course I want to learn, but I can't experience somebody catching an attitude with me but for so long before I throw my hands up in frustration and walk away. I admire you guys for that, and the shared knowledge is what is going to make all of you excellent growers.
As I know for certain, men always have to be right. If they are wrong, they want to be the one to tell YOU they were wrong, they hate being called on it. My ex boyfriend was like that. When I called him on something, he would swear by it, like it was fact, until I showed him black and white proof that he was wrong. Then, he still tried to make it sound like he could be at least little right. But he wasn't right at all. But when he told me some b.s. and I just said 'okay', when he researched further, he gradually changed his opinion until it was a reflection of fact. Men are strange creatures. I don't even know why I bother...
But the point of this whole thing is, don't let your differences get between some amazing cultivation. Don't immediately disagree, and if you do, try to find middle ground. Most of you already conduct yourselves this way, which is why I posted this in the Newbie section.
This isn't an individual race. It is going to take all of us to perfect this if we intend to do it in one lifetime. Cheers
