Just took a hit and came up with a very stoned thought.....
Growers are like fishermen, when you walk down a long pier with a bunch of fishermen, everybody wants to catch the prize, but somehow even though they are all doing their own thing, it seems like everyone is a brother and they all like each other just because they are all fishing
So you walk down the pier, and one guy has bait in his bucket and he says, im using squid, and the next guy says im using clams, and the next guy says im using worms,
And you keep going and one guy says, try your bait 2 ft off the bottom, and another guy says try 4ft, thats what worked last spring, and another guy goes wait an hour when the tide drops....
And even though everyone has different gear, expensive, cheap , ghetto, whatever...they all get excited for each other even though they are really doing their own thing, theres just a link and respect, and everyone drops a comment, helpful or not....just trying to be kind.....
Thats how i see the forum, you know, use more cal mag, raise your lights, back off on nutes, etc etc...... its cool, i've only really gotten that vibe when i see a bunch of fishermen......
