All true and nothing I haven't admitted.

But those were your friends, not mine.

Anybody know you grow, D. Dave?

i dont know, i have a friend that knows i grow and my family knows.

1 friend, had some more friends know i grew before, but i got busted (my father thought i was in desperate need of an ambulance and so called me one, cops came along with, long story)

and i told everyone that knew that i wasnt growing anymore, which was true for a couple of months.

when my friend started growing, i told him about my grow,

but any relationship can go south.

the only question is.

do you have to lie to close ones about growing?

because if you do and they are really close.

they should know you by now very well and so spot you lying from a mile.

so how good are you at lying?



because the tell no one rule?

it only works if you live completely alone and have no visitors (no friends) ever.

or if you have a good way of completely hiding your grow and no reason for your friends to suspect anything (mysterious fresh good bud)

so how big are the consequences? (aside from possibly losing good friends)

if the people arent emotionally immature (take revenge f.e)

and care for you. (really care, like family man (lol like family should be)

you should be safe. (and its better not to lie to people, they could get hurt and find out at the same time, thinking that you dont trust them.....)

but you should do what you feel. each situation is unique and cant be compared.

whats good for you to do, is definetily not good for anyone else. ...usually.



but usually there is really no reason to tell, unless its to avoid hurting friends or family by forced lying, or because they live with you and have to know.

Thomas Paine, quotes about Honesty:
Of more worth is one honest man to society and in the sight of God, than all the crowned ruffians that ever lived.

Plato, quotes about Honesty:
The worst of all deceptions is self-deception.

The golden rule by me is honesty. Honesty is always best policy.

by substituting a new hobby, growing chooks. Rooster is standing on old entrance. [pic 1]

I could pass a lie detector test, because half my grow is sealed and buried at the moment.[pic 2]

Telling them i had given the mj away to people; which i already had covered in gifts given out to thier aquaintences. I gave everyone half a shopping bag full, so they know i do not care about money. lol

Telling a lie will work if there is an element of truth to it. That little bit of truth, makes the lie easier to tell.

lie i gave away all my dope, truth i gave away most of this grow [ see vases and one of bags i gave away]

lie - i turned off the light and buried the equipment truth just not all of it

lie - i got rid of the plants truth - out bush and into another grow space [see pics]

I am currently socially invisible to them, so i will fade over time.

These are friends of 14 years, so they are familiar with me making radical turns in my life; i 'went straight ' on them once before. lol nigel

yes, i grow alot of plants. all sorts.

i know a grower, he gave me these, hes a real good friend of mine of course i cant tell you his name oh ive known him years.

sometimes telling the truth can be even better.

Allglad

he heh funny Ss...

I have told my sisters and a few other close family members. I told to many co-workers that know I have a script....that I was gonna grow, but I also act wierd and I am have'n a hard time financilly, so I told them I quit. Only close family and one close friend knows now.

I dont feel bad not divuge'n personal info.

Like many fellow growers I feel like I would like to sit down and talk about my grow to anyone, but that is NOT a good move.
