The shop I go to gives a standing 10-20 % discount on all purchases after you have spent some money their. Idk if your in a legal state, im not. Stuff seems to be more expensive here.

Well its not legal here, its decriminalized and medical licenses. But its far from Colorado or out west. But they r really lenient in that sense. Long as u aint going HAM lol

The Carolina's.

There is two shops around me. That's it. One I refuse to shop at. Can't order stuff offline because of security issues. So id be lying to them if I said that.

Oh I see. Yeah so they proly a good size shop than if they hookin up discount like that. They still makin a pretty penny either way, but thats good shit.

Just look at they prices on common items such as hoods, ballast and soil and compare online and see where their price points at. I mean 250$ for a litre of roots kind outrageous honestly. Thats insane lol.

Im up North same coast. Not many shops up here though still early in the game. For years there was only 2 spots within 100 miles now theres proly 4 lol. One tried but failed in a couple years, he was an asshole though so didnt surprise me at all

Yah its a niche market. And u need $$. Companies like sunlight and hydrofarm the "main" suppliers got 20k minimum orders and shit, so u need a decent bank roll just start up. And obv have a few years stashed away cuz it aint walmart, u got a shop u know every grower in 100 mile radius sometimes more. I got ppl come from Pennsylvania and New Jersey all way up here its crazy. But obv they really big time dudes and donit for security reasons.

The dude im tellin u bout w the 36 lights drives almost 3 hours to get shit, he comes in a fckin uhaul truck and puts in insane orders. Dude bought 3 pallets of coco last time. An entire pallet of castings. And orders drums of fckin nutes a few at a clip.

Shud seen when he bought all equipment. LOL and he got his shit setup for real. Chillers, burners in every room, big dog split units. Huge reservoirs for making r/o dudes a boss.

Young kid too lol

I own a box truck. If that tells you anything. When I ran GH flora series years ago I would buy the 55 gallon drums. Had to buy a pallet jack just to move them.

Yea it happened to me at the warehouse. I built a faraday cage around all my ballast.

Something I wanted to clear up from earlier. My warehouse is 2500 sq ft. I run 24 600s. I don't think it's nearly as big as you had imagined.

I know people swear by the 3 part GH but I was never a fan. Started w it like most ppl and just never went back too it, been long time

Stopped carrying AN? Wow thats crazy man. I dont care what ppl on this forum say they all tlk shit bout AN but none of em ever run it but "know its overprice, overhyped garbage" cuz someone told them that. LMAO

I never get so many huge colas in my life beside AN and Canna is comparable. Id say Canna overall quality is a lil better but yields no way.

I pulled 1.5 lbs off each 600 when using advanced. They won't carry it because the molestation scandal.

Oh really oh shit thats crazy. I thought cuz they promote MJ, some places refuse to carry cuz they dont wanna be considered a "grow store" but wtf u in business for thats 75% of ur business if not more.

Idk much bout cyco never tried that one. We got it at store but havent gotten around to it yet. Im on the Rock Nutrient right now and been gettin really good results considering shit is a one part nute w a root innoc and a flower booster. I use a micron sprayer/atomizer shit for foliar app w the absorbalight and so far been gettin phenomenal results.

Not as much yield as AN but damn close and for price thats cool w me. Shit is super cheap and it really has been producing fire and high yields. Highly impressed. And than of course i kp my tried and true botanicare recipe going in main spot cuz that shit speak for itself. IMO best flavors and smells from that lineup hands down.

I always found that 600s when ur rooms dialed in yield almost just as much as 1000w. For the extra 400 watts not even worth running most time, and the added heat sucks in summer.
