Royal Nugs rant

So I've recently expressed some of my concerns regarding the corporatization of some popular brands in the cannabis world. I don't expect anyone to agree with me, rather understand why I have a hard time recommending certain products.

While this article is biased, it presents a concerning problem. With the ongoing legalization, more people are growing than ever. Corporations are poised to swoop in and "capitalize" the industry. The only way to prevent this, is to hit them where it hurts. Their wallet. By boycotting their products the consumers would have a say in how this unavoidable transition goes down.
 
I've said before you don't need the high price food to get a good yield , all the growing stuff coming out is priced outrageously. Adding 5 things is lots to me but I get good bud so cool. Right now with the cost of growing buying would be cheaper But I like mine it's better then retail.

Say it ain't so...freaking frick. So miracle grow now owns GH? switching back to advanced. Any info on them? I grow hydro can you recommend any good nutes?
 
I love my country........I hate what my country has become. Corporate greed, while no longer our biggest problem, is certainly high on the list. Scotts will take once quality made products, find every way possible to cut costs by cheapening said products for a higher profit margin. I understand your rant. My rant goes much deeper, but I will not go there.

Unfortunately, this problem you present, just like any other, requires the masses to get on board. That rarely ever happens. I feel your pain brother!

Since April of last year I believe. They now own Gavita and Botanicare as well.

I use advanced nutrients in hydro.

If you want a cheap nutrient that works well, I've heard dyna-gro is good.
 
Therein lies the problem. People are not informed or just don't care. I'll continue to do my part by educating and informing those that will listen to my lunacy....
 
That purchase was done a bit ago and I am eager to leave it..actually leaving it
and thanks
miracle perlite same issue..has nutrients.
thanks for the post Royal
 
What are switching to? I only have experience with AN and GH. I'll probably just go back to AN. I'm on board with the corporate boycott. Lets freeze em out. But insomniac is right...it'll never get traction.
 
I have to believe Hawthorne is licking their chops with all the converted states. California will be the focal point. Keep an eye out at your local Home Depot and Lowes. I wouldn't be surprised if you see more cannabis based products showing up on the shelves.
 
Dude you need to take that Shit on the road....you kill me

I bet you like Monty python movies don't you....I hope so!!!
 
Damn't I tried to correct it and I tried to be funny on the edit and the autocorrect fixed it I went to fix that and it won't let me Damn't
 
Hey Tika! I was just wondering, want don't you like about Botanicare? Is there something wrong with their products or is it something about the company itself? I only ask because I really like their "Hydroguard" product for DWC. I'm always interested in learning more about nutrients, and I love hearing people's experience with different products!
