How do you treat your friends?

Was it free for you to grow it? If you paid any amount of money to get a harvest, and "friends" want a freebie, well, you can figure that out.

I am fortunate to live in a place where lots of work is done on the weed barter system.
It is also a place where people don't have $100 for an ounce let alone $480.
A female friend of mine comes once a month and cleans the shit out of my house for a fat ounce. When I lived in the city I don't think I had a friend that was capable of completing a task for any amount of money or weed.
I treat my friends well because I am fortunate to have friends that deserve it.

Our friends go home with primo bubble hash, nugs, bags, clones, big breeder seed packs, nutes, pesticides, lights....whatever they need or we want to give. All of them are also growers, are members here and are my family. It's a give and take with these good folks. They're the ones who also let us walk out with bags, hash, clones, pesticides, etc.... It's nice to have your growing circle.
 
i got a handfull of friends who i make sure they got nugs if they cant find nothing to buy...i never charge anyone anything that would make me a dealer . i see them once in a while they dont take advantage of it .so i dun mind tossin 3-5 grms . we all need meds .it will come back 10 fold

only problem is that friends always NEED to know where you got IT from and can be quite insistent to the point of pure fucking annoyance

A quick, "Your mother gave it to me" should end the questions. :D

I spent five months and a bundle for this herb. If I don't conserve it I will have to buy some. And the whole reason I grew it was so I would not have to buy and support criminal enterprises.

your friends shouldnt know you grow imo.
exactly,"i don't grow it, but i have one hell of a good connection,in limited supply of course and it is SUPER expensive". thats about the only way you can share your buds and not get hounded ceaselessly for free nugs,to sell some or go get them a sack.plus if they start coming around too much just to smoke you can "be out".you might be suprised how quick a friendship can go south when someone knows you grow and you don't give them what they are "entitled to". sucks but that's the way it seems to be.

Hey Guys,
lets say you just harvested sowwhere near to a pound. Your intent of growing is to treat yourself.
Now you have your friends coming over and you sure smoke one (or two or three ...) to just enjoy life and weeed.
The evening comes and youre beeing asked if you sell or give away some of the sweet flowers. Youre sure that you dont want to sell any, as this would not suit your character, but you def want to give your friends a share, as theyre not growing. (Sharing is caring!!)

So do you just give away your buds or do you "charge" anything for it? (Maight be a beer or sth one has to bring to get bud :p)

Peace

are you some sort of sucker?

what other friend of yours is giving away buds?

if you need to keep friends by plying them w/free weed then maybe you need to save all your money & buy a new personality

sharing is caring ONLY applies to cancer patients in dire need.

as soon as you run outta weed which one of your friends is gonna step up to the plate and fill your bowl for free every day? I didn't think so.




my friends are welcome to come catch a buzz @ my expense any time they want, but I don't care what their excuse is no freebies leave my crib. Sorry bro but this is my medicine and it's all I have (no matter how much I have) is what I tell them.......
 
i dont give a shit its giving away money ...i got more out of it then i got in it .im not in this for money ,im in this to smoke and medicate for my health issues .so i can be a part of the public and a father figure. doesnt hurt me to give away a lil bit . i grow for me myself and my wife . nothing against those who do sell or anything else . its just not my cup of tea. i see those friends i was talking bout all the time actually, one of them just built my aquarium stand with me . they just dont ask for weed often is the point i was making .they all smoke regs as a matter of fact a buddy is here right now with some . NEXT POST ill post a pic .but they know i dont sell and respect that. i always share though and smoke with them . most the time they leave in a cannabis comba

the one guy who said his friends got to know everything. get yourself away from those friends or pay the price . a nosey person is a nono to any grower. i dont tell ppl shit ,i tell them doesnt matter where or who it comes from .what matters is were bout to blaze or whatever .then i tell them "dont ever ask me questions like that ,its none of your fucking business" . grown folks i suppose dont ask these kinda questions . i know my circle will lie to your face or go fuck yourself .when u start asking questions around me u set off red flags with me . then i cut u off (no contact) and send u to go interogate someone else like police. cause u wont be speaking to me again

See, that's kind of the point though.

Firstly, it's never OK that someone knows you grow...period.
Secondly, it's all about how it's gone about that makes the difference.

You know, protocol is everything.

The OP sounds a bit on the young side,but NOW is when he needs to learn his lessons...sure beats the hell out of the alternative...it's no place to be when you're young and hairless

I treat my friends better than I treat myself... or so I try to keep in mind.

My friends appreciate this... or they are no friend at all.

Think we might be saying the same thing here bro.



Maybe the OP needs better 'friends'...?

you guys are confusing this grower?? When I grow I dont grow a plant that will give me a few oz. When I harvest theres lbs to trim. Then 4 months later theres more lbs to trim. I could never smoke that much weed by myself it would go bad/stale. Nobody I know is aware I grow. I do share a considerable amount with friends.. My friends have been in my life for 40+ years we are all over 50. I dont drive around with a 10 pack in the trunk. I dont walk down the street smoking a blunt. We all know to never carry more then a oz on us.


If you have real friends you have nothing to worry about. I agree with Krunch.

good friends are hard to come by

and sometimes you dont know theyre bad friends until its too late

I agree tough, people shouldnt know you grow, unless your okay with going to the pen

of course.. maybe.. there are friends, that are straight up loyal, but thats a risk

as for growing pounds.. hah thats something else

not everyone grows pounds

All my friends get gift bags. All my friends know to come over if you run out,I got your back if can. I also try and share as much knowledge as I can. If they r interested in growing their own, I give them seeds, or clones. I only take something in return if the situation warrants it. I have harvest parties to share the bounty.
It feels good to keep others in mind the whole time with the herb. I grow plants to give away,lol. Makes me feel good. :) I sprout seedlings for my good friends every year, I show up at grow buddies houses with new genetics outa the blue,lol. Its a joy to share.
I have had people hand me pounds before. I want to keep that giving spirit flowing :)
I have friends houses I can go to every night of the week. I have not EVER run outa AAA grade smoke since 1999. Thats a Fact. Not one sec have I EVER not had at least a couple bowls to smoke. And that is due to my friends I share with having my back.. Not everyone has shister, no good friends that only take, and dont give. It's Karma. SHARING IS CARING. Be Kind, you will be treated kind.

My motto is to show generosity to those who do the same for me. If people begin to mooch I stop hanging out with them and we cease to be friends.

Real friends are hard to find, beggars aren't. Nothing bugs me more than people who just ask ask ask and take take take. :smoke:
