Is growing addicting?

I read an article where an experienced grower claimed that growing is addicting and once you start its hard to stop. He also mentioned that it begins to change your life in unexpected ways. Is this guy just waxing or is there some truth to it?

gateway plant lmao..like it!
not really dude cos i usually grow demon red!! fucking hot 1's!!!! :lol:
but i'd suggest just pot em and stick em on ur sunniest windowsill. chilis really need loadsa sun. most have 80-90 harvest cycle. but they are perenials!!! so pick and come again.or most are. real fucker weed ain't the same eh!!??!!
if u want to grow em out doors, start them just like weed, small pots etc but do it indoors then when they're around 5-6 inches, aclimatise them to outside, few hours a day,increasing the amount over a week, then plant em out in your suniest spot.really can't stress this enough.they need sun!!
once the fruit (cos it's fruit not veg! :lol: ) starts to form..use a tomato nute if u want to feed em!
are we really talking bout chilis on a weed forum???!?! lmao
or put em under a light, if u just happen to have 1 lmfao

I'd say it's addicting! It's almost like growing money on trees, even you're growing it for personal use (which I am), it's saving you a TON of money from having to buy it. Imagine if you could grow an illegal plant that produced little flowers with $10 bills on it instead of buds, wouldn't you think it would be addicting?

thx for the info...I have lots of seeds so I am gonna try it...I think I need to give em a little shade though...it has been over 110 for the past week where I live so...nothing but cactus survive...and palo verde....unless i watered them 5 times a day in the sun they would croak here...but a window sill like you suggested may be my ticket to success. good chili info.
and as far as addiction goes...I buy shit for my plants when I am broke before I buy myself food. not often but the economy lately is fucked for my profession...so ha ha ha yeah..it's addicting...I look at every plant I walk past now and admire it's qualities:blsmoke:

One of the first posts I ever made on this site was about my addiction...to growing. I have reached a point that I enjoy growing as much as smoking...almost! It seems the more success I have, the more I want to grow. I can't imagine if I could NOT grow...:cry:

Hell yes its addicting, I couldnt grow anything until I started growing weed 3 months ago. Now im trying to root everything from peach trees to tomatoes. Got through my first crop made a few mistakes. but we are learning as we go. second crop is growing now. It looks better than the first. We will just keep trying.
