ppowellaa, Anything Glows and Grows do play nicely together. Sound like in the first part, the Default shader was your wall shader. At that point you probably could have gone to the Texture room and it would have asked you if you wanted to create a new master shader. You could say yes and then turn that shader into the fire fly glow. One the second problem, it was probably just a matter of getting an Anything Glows light attached to the Anything Grows primitive. Make sure the grows object has a unique name, and with it selected, use Edit|Add New Anything Glows. It should be all connected then.
