Grow Toxicity: Don’t be the reason someone stops growing.

“Stop being a mushy kid and grow like the big boys I can tell youre the super conservative type”

Saw this in a grow discord today.

Wish I could say it was rare to see.

But it’s rampant in the grow community.

Don’t be the reason someone stops growing.

A newer grower was asking for feedback on transplanting.

A more experienced grower decided to attack.

You know…one of the “big boys.”

Why?

No clue.

But it happens All. The. Time.

Don’t be the person who:

  • Mocks beginners
  • Offers sarcastic advice
  • Insults instead of instructs

Please.

This world needs more growers.

And less assholes.

We were all beginners once.

A little kindness goes a long way.

That’s a wrap!

Want to grow your own but nervous to give it a go?
