Re: “the code”:
Some of this stuff is intuitive and some of it isn’t. For newbies like me it would be extremely useful to have a FAQ/Wiki about ethics and proper behavior. Not rules so much as philosophy. Things like:
- Expectations for testers
- Pollen in populated outdoor grows
- Selling seeds of a work in progress
- Revealing herms in lineage or current crop
- Sharing breeder info
- Dealing with trades/buys/gifts gone bad
- naming, linking to and linking back from outside forums
- Treatment of sponsor/vendors foreign and domestic.
- Editing Wikis… Come at me, Growboys!
Some stuff is documented (pming seed begs, DOXing,) some is common sense (checking facts before repeating gossip or 2nd hand criticism) but some things only seem to be learn able by making, or watching others make, mistakes.
Be great to learn from an FAQ.
