Does your family know you grow?
    #6017005 - 08/31/06 11:00 PM (17 years, 6 months ago)

After a previous post I realized that most of us are older (mature) mycologist who may have families. I am more or less curious how many "growers" are open about their hobby with their family. My wife, and children, have no idea what is above my hot water heater or in that large rubber made container (with a aquarium pump attached) is in the garage. I don't trip much and truly do this for the "piece of mind". How many other guys/gals are in the same boat as I am?

Happy growing  :heart:

p.s. would someone please rate me.... :blush:

Hm well I wouldn't call myself older, I'm only 21, but I consider myself fairly mature for my age :P

I live with 2 other 21 year olds in an apartment.  One knows that I am trying to grow some, the other has no idea.  The one that doesn't know is the one that I used to always smoke pot and try drugs with.  Why haven't I told him?  He runs his mouth to his cousin (who I've dated in the past and am getting close with again) and everyone else, most of which don't like drugs.

Actually I just got done installing a locking doorknob so I don't have to worry about him finding my stuff.  I just finished an incubator and also made a new batch of substrate which is cooling and waiting for injection :smile:

I've never tripped on shrooms but am looking forward to it!

Mrs. Stoned knows all about the hobby, our kids don't. I personally couldn't keep a secret like that from my wife, mostly because the majority of my grow room is the master bedroom. Aside from her, my brother is the only other person on the planet who knows what's going on, well, and you guys...lol.

Peace.

my wife helps with everything . my cacti ,shrooms,weed, hydroponic systems,salvia,other ethno's ,extractions,hash making,making cakes and casings . and we both dont do any of it we either store it or give it to family. but she has wanted to trip for like 20 years and was very scared about it . she would not do it , so i left the subject alone and let her surf on here for months. well last week she said i am ready and we never laughed so hard. she had one of the best times of her life and cant wait to do it again. after, she said all that stuff about bad trips and scary stuff was crazy that was great!!!

but in your case you got to think ,is she going to freak on you and break up . also you dont want to hurt the kids. i dont thing on the other had that the kids should know until they are older.if your wife is not cool with stuff like that i would be very carefull.

I havent started growing yet, but when i do.. I will have my own place, and no one will know that im growing that are friends with me. The only person that might know is my mom, i dont stay with her, but she knows everything.. Definatelly more trustworthy then alot of "friends". Besides here of course

My family encourages it, lol. Especally my father, he likes them. I dont live with my parents, and am married. My wife knows, and doesnt mind. Matter of fact, she even harvested for me once when I was a noob and at work.

My dad refers to it as kitchen chemistry and that he is happy that I don't really run a risk of blowing my self up. I guess because of all the meth labs now a days

Does it worry anyone that this a public forum and that a police officer could be posing as a noob and asking incriminating questions? Just curious...

Do you realize how irresponsible it is to grow in a house with other adults and not tell them. Thats just as bad as some kid growing in his parents house. What if something happened and you got caught. Your wife would go to jail, for a long time, for something you did. Why would you even marry someone that you don't trust?

i'm 21 and live with my parents at the moment - only reason being that my mother has just had a big operation and if anything bad happens i would like to be able to help.

my parents know (i asked their permission before i did anything in their house). my little brother doesn't know nor shall he ever - he's got a big mouth and talks too much :wink:

as for feds posing as noobs asking questions like this, surely they have better things to do and bigger crimes to prevent :wink:

My family knows, at least to some extent. My girlfriend knows and even helps when she can.
