Question for any female growers.......... - Women's Forum - International Cannagraphic Magazine Forums

guest2012y · 02-04-2010, 11:46 PM

.......What is your opinion on why there are more guys taking an interest in,or are actually growers than women? Seems my girlfriend (and last girlfriend had) has a great interest,and wants to be involved with all the aspects of this trip,but it's like she's more interested in veggie gardening and not as into it as she says she is. Wherever I have been over the last 25 years of growing,it's been a guy thing.....(except my mom and a couple gals) Why do guys tweek out on it more?

No balls needed.......just nerves of steel, which most us ladies have, tucked right in between our chest puppies.

Holy Smokes!! I guess that answered my question......sort of anyway...........I guess it will always be what it is unless it's legalized. Imagine the potential changes in all of these areas. Thanks for some clarification Dutchgrown...we'll see what happens as we age.

Wifey tells me that it's MY thing, and she wants to give me the space to do it, she says her end of the partnership is o test and monitor quality control

I think growing is something that's definitely grown on me (no pun intended haha). I wasn't even that interested in the beginning, I was more of a helper. I looked at it like a chore, and thought "why does he like this so much?!" But after going through the process, you gain a sort of respect for it. I bet if your wifey started helping you out joe she'd like it more. hehe

That's true about the "chore" thing...over the years I have looked at it on various levels. When I get a bit rich from it all of a sudden it turns into more of a chore for both of us. When we are poor it turns into more of a "we have to do this,let's get our heads into it"....Only now has it become something that I have a "pride in your work" attitude with. I'm just not sure where she stands on that level.

Wifey has a lot on her plate

She is preggars with our first child, and she just relocated to be with me in my hometown. The whole countercultural lifestyle is very knew to her, as is a character like myself. She is very observant and sees the pride I take in my growing and the joy it brings me. WE kid of look at it as a blessing from all angels, it provides extra income in a very shitty economy, it helps her anxiety, and my depression, and it's good clean fun!!!
