| i have been noticing a lot of new people on this board lately, and a lot of questions are being asked without reading about it first.
so i am going to make a list of stuff NOT to do for the new people who are getting into this hobby
please feel free to add to this thread. and maybe it will become archives.
1. dont buy a kit.
you will get ripped off. if they were as easy as they looked. everybody and their mother would be using them. and consequently this board would not exist!!
2 dont ask questions unless you have looked in the archives first.
please read the archives first.thats what it is there for!!
3.dont start big.
learn the pf tek first. is is by far the easiest and best growing guide available ANYWHERE.
4. dont tell every body on the board that you are growing to sell and make some cash. this board can be monitored.. and its just not that smart.
5. dont ask where to get some mushrooms.
the good people on this board will not stand for it. and its just not cool.
6.dont get out of line with anyone.
we are trying to keep this board as friendly as possible.( and i personally dont want this place to turn into the shroomery) we have a very relaxed atmosphere lets keep it that way.
7. dont get upset if your question wasnt answered.
sometimes we dont read a post that has been around for a while. if you really want an answer them bump the thread. and i am sure it will be answered.
8.dont ask for freebies.
there has been a lot of stuff going around the mushroom community about getting freebies. my advise stick around for a while ( about 6 mo to a year) and then ask. only if you really need it. i personally would not hesitate if someone i knew well on the board needed something.
9.dont move on to something harder.
dont move up the myco ladder untill you have perfected what you are working on. a lot of failure has happened this way.
take your time and learn everything you can.
10. this isn't a dont but i think it is a good suggestion.
make friends.
stay on the board as much as possible and pop into chat every now and then and let us know what you are doing.
i cant think of anymore right now so i will leave it up to you guys to help me out.
peace
