Growing Pains! is a Simpsons Comics story in Simpsons Comics #67. It was released in February 2002.
Homer gives Bart one of his old copies of the comic Z-Men. Bart sees an ad for a crossbow that he can only obtain if he sells crates of seeds for Armenian Seed Co.. Because the company has not had sales for years, Bart accidentally buys the entire stock of 10,000 packs of seeds using Homer's credit card.
Lisa, who is part of an unsuccessful environmental organization called Enviro-Bears, suggests they sell seeds to everyone in town so the profit can pay off Homer's card and fund the Enviro-Bears. However, very few people in town are interested in buying the seeds. Mr. Burns demands they stop selling them because of his hayfever. The Simpson house starts to be repossessed due to the unpaid bill, so Grampa suggests hosting a town fair (with the seeds as prizes) to raise money. Mr. Burns tries unsuccessfully to prevent the fair from happening by sending thugs after Homer. The fair eventually raises enough money to pay off Homer's card. A frustrated Burns fires a death ray at the seed crates, but the ray instead makes the seeds blossom immediately, with the side effect of making the adults infertile.
