okay
now lets say this guy named...bob. he likes to grow stuff. shrooms, MJ,Poppies,phalaris, and make homemade hooch etc, for personal use. he dosent mind sharing, in fact, its all free. only problem that he has had..is his friends. there good friends, only problem is that they have a tendency to say things to other people. something like this "yeah i know a guy who grows shrooms". now bob knows that they have told other people, not a lot of people though and the people arent crazy crackheads or anything...just he doesnt know them very well. bob has told them not to tell other people. bob is scared of the police. i mean shit, he's not selling it or hurting people, its jsut organic stuff. he has a decent job, etc and a lives a normal suburn life...just he likes to get stoned every so often and see other realms..who dosent???
he dosent want to lie to his friends..they know a fair amount of what bob grows (but not all) for himself. just bobs paranoid now.
anyways what do u think of bobs situation.....what would you tell bob???
thanks

Bob should explain to his friends how his project accidently
got contaminated and crashed, and has since been deemed
an excessively expensive and risky project. Though Bob loved
the idea of growing, Bob finds it best to leave the growing to
another friend far away that he seldom sees.
Bob might even want to try the practice of growing edibles(seriously)
since there's no risk involved there, and might explain
unforseen events.
Just a thought. Do I sound like I've been there before?
Lie to Bob's friends! A real friend wouldn't risk your (oops Bob's)
future to flex his knowledge.

Bob's freinds owe Bob.
Bob should teach them how to grow and them mooch off of them.
Then they will understand the paranoia and they won't talk so much.

Bob,
I agree with Baby H on this.
"Bob should teach them how to grow and then mooch off of them. "
"Then they will understand the paranoia and they won't talk so much. "
Nothing worse than a loud mouthed friend.
If the shoe was turned around on them.... they would be shiting in their pants.
With friends like that.....you don't need enemies.

And a few concrete blocks sink loose lips. A better plan would be to listen to W.U.L. Say you got sick of growing and make up a good excuse why. You can still have shrooms around all the time but just pretend like you cant get them some times. If your friends think that you are having to pay for them and still try to leach tell them to fuck off or overcharge them for the bag that used to be free before they started running their mouths.

No the best thing to do is to teach others how to grow its the only way they will
learn the resposabilitys and worries of growing. Plus the idea of growing isnt to
make mony from others especialy over charge (bad Karma) but to have a nice supply of shrooms to share with your friends and eventualy teach when you have become self sufficient and are happy with your methods.

What if "Bob" combined both ideas from W.U.L. and Baby H? He could tell his friends that for whatever reasons, he has decided to stop growing , but would be happy to teach his "friends" how to grow. That way they could see how much patience and time it takes to grow. Who knows, maybe Bob's friends might be good at it and Bob might make out with some friends for him to leech off of. All the while, keeping his operation secretly or at his discretion. Then again, maybe all off Bob's friend's brakes might fail? Regardless of anyone's advice, Bob needs to do something soon.

Tell Bobs "friends" that Bob was arrested and needs money for a lawyer...and because they were the only ones that knew then they had to be the reason why Bob got busted....and tell bob not to think of it as taking money from them....remember Bob gave away all his shit for free. Bobs fake arrest will wipe away idea of things still growing.

It seems that Bob has some really smart friends here at the
shroomery with lots of good ideas.
Bob should think long and hard to decide if Mr. Talktomuch
is worthy of passing the sacred torch. Or would he roll
over on Bob's other projects, in order to get out of a pinch?
Did you know that just Bob's verbal instructions can easily
be twisted into "conspiracy to commit a felony"?
Just a thought.

Bob's friends are umm good friends..however they cant grow shit. way too stupied..in bob's opinion. all they want is the end product and dont give 2 shits about how to do it. impatient bastards!!!. one of them tried shrooms a couple months ago...bob was happy about it, even helped him set up everything up!!! bob gave his friend loads of advice and even gave him some internet palces to look up info. did bobs friend listen to the advice?? hell no dammit!!! he went away for 3 weeks to vancouver and left the basement door wide open.
THATS RIGHT THE MORON HAD EVERYTHING GOING..THEY WERE JUST ABOUT TO FRUIT BUT HE TOOK OFF AND THOUGHT THEY WOULD SURVIVE. OHH ITS GETS BETTER!!!......HE LEFT HIS CAT ALONE IN THE HOUSE WITH ENOUGH FOOD/WATER AND SOMEONE CAME OVER EVERY DAY OR 2 TO CHECK ON THE CAT. ANYWAYS THE PESKY FELINE INVADED THE SHROOM HABITAT AND KNOCKED OVER EVERYTHING AND TOOK A PISS ON OF THE CLAWED TO DEATH CAKES!!!!!. he was reallly pissed...and gave up all hope....
okay here the plan. i got all the ideas from you guys..thanks!!!
bob will say that he got busted by the cops and will make up a good excuse why, Bobs fake arrest will wipe away idea of things still growing. he still have shrooms/other goodies around all the time but will just pretend like he cant get them some times and start charging the normal rate, and the rare stuff nobody will know about. An older friend of bobs is in another town , a hippy like dude he met at a hempfest. He gives bob a bunch now and then, for a price. i have figured out it all..and im sure it will work. bob hates selling things, as it just aint right. but some things must be kept a secret as bob has learned, so now he will have "bad" money laying around the house...but bob has decided all the money will go towards a new project....hmmm what next??? bob has always wanted a salvia plant, or a san pedro cactus. anyways bob thanks all you guys for responding and giving him good advice!!!
ohh and bob is going to start seeking new friends very soon
