Meet Uncle Ben

I’m Uncle Ben — a U.S. Marine Corps veteran, lifelong grower, and founder of Growin’ With Uncle Ben, a Black- and Veteran-owned grow education brand. What started as a personal passion turned into a mission: helping everyday people grow fire weed at home — organically, affordably, and with confidence.

I grew up gardening with my dad, learning the old-school way — using eggshells, compost, and whatever we had on hand. That foundation shaped how I grow today: natural, hands-on, and always rooted in the soil.

Through my YouTube channel, one-on-one coaching, and real product testing, I break down grow techniques in a way that’s easy to follow, no matter your setup. From soil to harvest, I keep it hands-on, straight-up, and rooted in real results.

This isn’t about hype or flex — it’s about community, quality, and putting knowledge in the hands of growers who need it. Whether you’re growing in a closet or running a backyard jungle, I’ve got you covered. Let’s grow together.
