Can I mention my cannabis growing app or nutrient company?
Yes, if you drop the pitch entirely. Answer grow questions with real detail and leave your brand out of it completely.

Rules can change, so Rankhog keeps verification dates and the original public Reddit sources visible.
Rule summary
- No selling / buying: No sales, no “DM to buy”, no offers, no sourcing. Anything related to selling or purchasing is not allowed.
- No hate: This is a warm, grower-friendly community. No toxicity, hate, harassment, bullying, or personal attacks.
- No promo codes or self-promo spam: No promo codes, referral links, affiliate links, ads, “check my shop/channel”, or repeated self-promotion.
- Help each other grow: Share knowledge, tips, grow logs, and support. Be respectful, helpful, and keep it friendly.
Works well
- A weekly grow log showing your setup, feeding schedule, and progress photos, ending with a question inviting feedback from other growers.
- A troubleshooting breakdown where you walk through a deficiency or pest issue step by step and show how you fixed it.
- A comparison discussion of techniques you personally tested, such as training methods or drying approaches, written purely as lived experience.
- Detailed replies answering beginner questions in existing threads, building reputation without starting promotional posts at all.
Avoid
- Posting any ad, discount code, referral link, or affiliate link, because “No promo codes or self-promo spam” bans them outright.
- Asking anyone to DM you to buy seeds, gear, or consulting, since “No selling / buying” covers all buying and selling activity.
- Sourcing plants, clones, or supplies through comments or messages, which falls under the same sales ban.
- Repeatedly linking back to your blog, YouTube channel, or newsletter in replies across many threads.
- Being rude or dismissive toward beginners asking basic grow questions, because “No hate” protects everyone in the thread.
What r/MarijuanaGrowersClub Is For
This is a network for marijuana growers, and the description says every level is welcome, from first timers to seasoned pros. People come here to share tips, keep grow logs, troubleshoot problems, and help each other grow better. Rule four makes the tone clear, share knowledge and stay friendly and supportive. So think of it as a workshop bench, not a storefront, and the folks hanging around it care most about healthy plants and honest answers.
Rules That Matter Before Posting
Three rules will decide if a marketing adjacent post lives or dies here. “No selling / buying” removes anything involving sales, purchases, offers, or sourcing. “No promo codes or self-promo spam” takes out promo codes, referral links, affiliate links, ads, check my shop or channel style plugs, and repeated self-promotion. “Help each other grow” sets the positive bar, meaning posts need to add real value to growers, not just take attention away from the community. “No hate” matters too, because any snarky reply while promoting yourself puts two strikes on your account at once.
What To Post
A good post teaches something or documents something. Show a grow log with photos of the plant at different stages and explain what changed week to week. Post a troubleshooting story where you describe a problem, what you tried, and what finally worked, then invite others to compare notes. Write detailed answers to beginner questions in comment threads, since being visibly generous builds trust faster than any profile bio ever will. If you built a growing tool or wrote a guide, talk about the method itself and let curious people find you naturally, keeping every single post free of links, codes, and pitches.
What To Avoid
Anything commercial gets pulled fast, per the moderator note about removing buying, selling, hate, self-promotion, and promo codes. That includes offering to buy or sell anything, dropping promo codes, sharing referral or affiliate links, running ads, pointing people at your shop or channel, and repeating self-promotion over multiple posts. Toxicity, harassment, bullying, and personal attacks break “No hate”. Also avoid vague hype posts with no substance, because they fail the spirit of “Help each other grow” even if no single keyword trips a filter.

Common questions about r/MarijuanaGrowersClub
What if another member asks me where to get the lights or nutrients I used?
It depends. If you genuinely grew those results using their products and want to discuss how they performed, that reads as shared experience rather than promotion, but be careful with any wording that sounds like an endorsement deal.
Can I run a giveaway or contest for members?
Not safely. Even without a direct sale, pushing traffic toward a purchase funnel looks like promotion and risks removal under the promo rule.
I just want leads, can I invite people to message me privately?
No. Any request to move someone off-platform to make money edges into the selling territory that rule blocks.
