How is UC the last thing this website needs? There are people that are addicted to some UC in shroomery, posting all day n night. This forum needs active posters like that, there are only a handful of daily posters and most of them are trusted cultivators.

I think the site is generally great, but Id like to see some more growers being able to distinguish themselves a bit more, some of these people are prize worthy speciemens, fantastic growers and Ive been lucky to meet some of them already, they just gave me everything, so I think the growery could like hold contests and promote its existence, with tshirts, pins etc, ad more for themselves and if possible allow some members to show more of themselves. The fear of the cops is a negative vibe it would be cool to see people on shows, in concerts etc having these tshirts on for example...a real life alternative.
--------------------
Im doing this because its so fun!

RRv2 is a rarity.
AC gained popularity via runoff from RRv2.
Everything went right, the forum was made at just the right time, people just showed up and started posting, I promoted it, etc...
This place just simply does not have the traffic to support something like that happening.
Hell, I'm not even sure how it jumped right up to being the third most posted in forum on the shroomery. I'm the main moderator of the forum and have put a lot of time and effort into the place, but even I wasn't expecting that.
You have to have a long-term, highly active, & large userbase for something like that to even be a possibility, and even then more often than not they still will fail.
This site is lightyears away from being able to support a UC section, if it even ever will be able to. You haven't been around for long, you don't even know of the UC section pre-RRv2, it was pretty dead. What happened was basically a fluke.
I love the idea of user-moderated and created forums, but they're unrealistic for this place, at least in its present state.

I realize this post is 98 days old, so sorry to revive a dead post, but I'm sure you moderators are always accepting input right?
I just have a couple suggestions. Get more sponsors, do networking with seed bank websites and trade links with them. Example, I found out about shroomery because when I was shopping for spore prints I always saw shroomery links and shroomery ads. But I rarely see a growery ad. Also I see a lot of the same shroomery sponsor ads here on growery, which is fine, but I think there should be more cannabis related ads than shroom related.
One more suggestion. Shroomery has a marketplace forum for trading spore prints and whatnot. Why not add a marketplace forum on here for trading seeds?
Other than that, I like the site. Before I became a growery user, I was on rollitup.org and they have a lot of users so maybe check them out for inspirations and ideas.

Oh yeah one more suggestion. Search engine optimization. Shroomery comes up on my shroom-related google searches every time. Growery not as much. I have a personal friend who makes a living doing SEO for companies' websites so PM me if you need someone to do that. He is very good at what he does. He also knows the cannabis industry well. Google is your friend

We have a trading forum called the lot. You need 50 posts to see it.

Maybe the web is saturated with Cannabis sites?
I think I could agree with that. There's lots of competition in the cannabis community. For shrooms on the other hand, theres not many. Shroomery and mycotopia are the only 2 i can think of. So they both became popular because that's all there is.
Idk if advertising growery on shroomery is worth it tho. Theres already a button on the menu bar leading to growery. Im pretty sure every shroomery user has seen it.
What about merchandise? Free stickers, purchasable apparel, stuff like that. That would raise awareness for sure. I'd slap a sticker on my truck and rock it.

Also, to make this site seem more welcoming you need to ban po, stoneth, sham87, deadkdnys, draw, koop, that llama kid, magash, agmotes, pizzeria, poor boy, volcom, and geokkills.
Get rid of those guys and you will not only have a larger crowd, you will also have a shit ton of vendors.
Banning people is going to help increase the number of active users HOW, exactly??

I've suggested this before, but it would be cool if we each got a few hundred growery.org stickers to slap around our hometowns.

lol.... we did that
I pitched in $50 on this and it did nothing to increase traffic in the end
You should try the sticker thing again. But don't just slap them around towns, that's vandalism for one, it looks bad on the site rep for two, and lastly, they will eventually get removed by a city worker and not attract any more site traffic.
I would put the growery logo on my truck for people to see on the road, on my bong for my friends to see when I'm smoking them out, and I would give a stack to my local grow shop for them to give out. Stickers can be a great way to catch eyes if their placement is appropriate. Location location location.

add a french and a spanish section to the website

Good idea but then there would be this whole us vs. them vibe once people start posting ONLY in their prefered language.
Lets get some shirts made! idk any more... what is real?

You'really thinking about it the right way, I would love to see this placed revived.
I've been trying to figure out how to help with this, and so I've been trying to do some honest research on some potential methods for dialing in growth patterns and directly modifying gene content and activity for our favorite plants.
I figured that I would follow that research up with as much experimentation as I am capable of, and post the results here. OC that is worth something in developing markets like CO and WA could draw in the more serious growers and researchers from legal states.
At the very least, you could post links to said growery content on other cannabis forums. That plus the SEO that TrueHerbCrystal was suggesting would do a lot to attract some users.
 too bad my research is limited by my free time and the state I live in. It's been progressing at a slow crawl lately
