My mentor found me more than 20 years ago. I was the eager dipshit who wanted to grow the world. He asked me last week how many people I had taken under my wing over the years. 1. One. Just 1. My wife.
Sure I've given advice, shared seeds, cuts, etc. But I've never taken anyone through a grow A to Z.
And heres why. I learned it takes a special person who REALLY loves to grow. The commitment is huge. The responsibilities are many. The outcome is a long shot.
Everyone who smokes definitely would welcome the output. But that love of the flower does NOT carry over to the grow.
Real growers who are tuned into their plants are rare. Even here if you can find 1000 people globally who are fully committed and legit, well I'd be amazed.
The real ones like you? As rare as they come. I asked my mentor why he chose me so many years ago. He laughed and said because if you asked my partner about tomatoes and peppers again, well he was ready to kill you lol. He said he was waiting for someone who didnt want to grow. He was looking for someone who HAD to grow.
Besides my wife, I have never met anyone in real life with a real passion, a need, for the grow. That is something one must have within themselves. It's not a seed that can be planted.
Sorry you went through that. We'll all be your grow buds :)
