.........in December

When you see every HID street lamp as a potential pot farm :wink:

When you have a holster for your spray bottle when you go into the garden. And a secret mini holster on your ankle under your pant leg should any surprises occur

When you sit down at McDonald's by a table of high school kids talking about pot, and you laugh your ass off at all the stupid(and wrong) shit they say.

When you have more seeds in your fridge than food!

When half the guys at Home Depot know you by your first name.

your girlfriend understands when you spend hours in the other room with another female

- Your plants eat better than you do.

- Youve clogged your sinks garbage disposal or your toilet with fanleaves etc.

- You feel like everyone is looking at you while buying soil, fertz, and ammendments at HD, in january.

These are all of my own experience.

-When you have dreams about your plants or with your plants in them

-When you spend more time with your plants than you do other human beings

-When the guy at the hydroshop can anticipate what you are there for because you pick up needed supplies like clockwork.

-When the guy at the hydroshop winks at you after you make a purchase, even though you haven't ever told him what you are growing

-When the guy at the hydroshop says your his no1 customer

-When instead of sucking cock for coke, you suck pipes for smoke?

-When the police ever come to your door for something non related to your grow, you get nervous even if you are the only one who knows

-When you learned more about plants and chemicals than you ever did in science/biology class

-When you go to the cannabis cup and know more about the strains being displayed than those who grew them and are competing.

-When you are actually patient enough to let the plants finish properly

-When you pretty much pin point the harvest date to the exact, even from the day you plant a seed

-When your wife/girlfriend/boyfriend/husband is jealous of your plants

-When your wife/girlfriend/boyfriend/husband cheats on you because you don't pay attention to them anymore and then you throw them out and they try to take a bunch of shit with them when pretty much everything is yours ...fucking bitch. (eat pre-nop!)

-When no one can ever get their hands on bud as good as you

-When people ask to get some of the bud you smoke from your dealer for them, you say he is always out, but you always have bud

You know what safe addy means, and have one.

When you keep track of where you buy dirt from so you dont raise suspicions.

When you buy a bale of promix in single digit temps from the local flower shop.

When you never want to smoke anyone elses weed.

A bedroom door in your house has a deadbolt.

You go to he aquarium section at walmart but dont think about fish.

A relative sleeps on the couch, but the plants get there own room.

You lust for every black five gallon bucket you see.




This was a kick ass thread over at OG.

When you always have the best herb and someone comes up to you asking you for your dealers number and you just have a blank look on your face. knowing there is no dealer or nummber to give.

You also know when you are a real grower when you have no ideas how to go about buying herb in the town you live. Growers are there own dealers and lose trck of how to even score herb since we dont have to








Nevermind

when you've got more spare parts than a plumber's van .......................................................and you're not a plumber!

When PVC pipes are casual in the living room!

when you think of the bathroom for testing leaks, not taking leaks!

when 360 degrees of your yard has sun potential commited to memory, even if you know you can't grow there.

if you ever use the phrase; "save that for my worms"

if you can appreciate the smell of healthy soil

if a bag of chunky perlite makes your day

if sex vs. plant care has ever been a tough decision

if sitting alone watching the plant grow is an ideal way to un-wind

J.

You don't have a job, and spend 23.75 hours out of everyday doing whatever you feel like.

When 99% of people around you hate you.

You go to a local houseplant & garden shop asking for supplies and end up giving a lecture to the shopkeeper

HAHAHAH

You know exactly what store to go to for that "perfect" Rubbermaid or Sterlite container and carefully inspect any new items. Plus, you have more in-stock of certain items than Walmart.

Friends start talking about their hobbies and you have ABSOLUTELY nothing to say.

You concoct alternate scenarios for the crap you are buying on the way to the hardware store, just in case.

You know the average PH of your local tapwater.
