I live in CA too and he's right about the prices. However I can definitely say I use $100 worth of nutes and suppliments PER GROW and I will definitely keep doing them the same way. I change my nutes often and really like the effect it has on the growing so while some may feel I am wasting nutes I don't feel that way at all. My grows...up until the present one... have been about 12 week periods so yes, it adds up. And worth every penny to me..

And I completely agree with the rest of you who say you can't buy stuff anywhere near as nice as you can grow. As long as I can grow my own I'll never buy stuff off the street again. (of course....never say never....)
