What's up! Glad to see you here on Steemit. The approval process does take about a week typically because they are manually approved. Weed is a big topic here so you'll be in good company on Steemit. The BJJ and MMA scene is growing here. Be sure to use the #steemitbjj tag if you want to get my eyeballs on your content. You can also check out my site steemitbjj.com for some info on other apps that are in the Steemit ecosystem, such as d.tube, eSteem, dlive, or steepshot.

Also, be sure to follow Hive account@evecab since she created a discord chat for bjj/mma/martial arts. Plenty of the bjj community are starting to hit that chat up.
