Long-time grower getting back into it
#18752827 - 08/24/13 07:37 PM (10 years, 5 months ago) |

Hi! After trying shrooms when I was 16 (I'm 22 now), I started researching immediately and was up and growing about a month later. I started with kits and all that shit and eventually moved to PF tek and some bulk. I did that for a few years with some success, some failure, and took a break when I moved in with some friends. They were not shroom-friendly and I didn't want to risk getting caught, so I didn't grow for the last 2 years or so.
But now I'm back into the swing of things! I always did like really small 1 tub bulk grows, but the past few months have been going crazy doing like 4-5 10 gallong tubs at once. I'm kinda rusty, but just getting back into it, and am remembering stuff again, building back up my log, notes, etc.
I have a few friends that grow too, but they are all guys. Guys are cool, but I'd love to meet some fellow female growers, so if you exist, come say hi girls. I'm also bi, so I like girls for reasons other than friendship as well. lol 
Anyway, good to meet you all!

Hi! I'm in the same situation that you were in - I live with someone who is most definitely not shroom or drug friendly of any kind, so I feel your pain. 
If it weren't for that, me and my boyfriend would most definitely be growing again.

Thanks for the welcome! I'm actually living with some people who aren't necessarily shroom-friendly, they just don't ask questions. I don't even have a closet, the tubs are just arranged in the corner, so I can probably only keep this up for so long to be honest. I'm hoping to move into my own place by late fall, so I can have total privacy/no risk, though.

Maybe you'd get to see tits now and again if you actually learned how to talk to girls. Good luck with seeing any using your current approach, lol.

Ah, I see, you can rate users, I thought this was based on post-count since some users have like 15+ shrooms. Thanks for the 5/5 shroom ratings!

Thanks for the welcome. I tried some other mushroom forums and got turned off by them. Shroomtalk had some very good info, but their sponsors are questionable, and Mushroom geeks I thought had a lot of wrong/outdated info. Shroomery I have come to again and again with a very high level of accuracy; if misinfo is posted, it is usually very quickly corrected.

Mycotopia, I almost forgot about them. And yes, I'd agree with you.
By the way, I was wondering:
-k1ngtr4d3 mentioned a trading area, where can I find this? I looked over the forum index but didn't see it. I'm assuming such a new user like me is still considered untrusted, though, so maybe in the future.
-Is there any other payment option for a supporter account? I'd love to support this site and also browse on a secure connection, but Google checkout is a terrible option for anyone like me who is trying to remain discreet.

I think you get the market place after 50 posts and three months. I could be wrong though I'm just a silly Noob

Yhea it's 50 posts and 90 days.
You can mail a money order for a supporter account, but I can't seem to find the address right now. I bet a mod would be able to help you find it.
EDIT: I think I found it here, but you may want to Sell Your Soul or Geokills before hand to make sure, also I think there may be other options available.
