Note
One spelling carries every construction the verb allows. It can stand alone (the child grows), take an object (she grows tomatoes), or link a subject to a quality the way becomes does (it grows dark early now). The same noun can sit on either side: the business grows, and he grows the business. Only a singular third-person subject takes it. I, you and they keep grow.
