    The large grow shop I visit has been running a drive through Monday to Friday since lock down and the lads say they've never been busier, good job as online stores want £30 for a £10 bag of soil with their delivery and heavy item surcharge

    Too bad we can't have a THC talk rummage sale, I'm sure we all have loads of gear that we just don't use.

    Probably spent a couple of grand wasting thru crap off ebay etc and getting set up to where I am now. Hindsight is wonderful

    However my 1st ever grow netted me ~10oz from 3 plants. And round here @ £200 for a zip of super silver haze I covered my costs by not having to buy.
    So now I justify my spending to the Mrs with "It's ok, i'll make that back on the next grow with what I save not buying overpriced smoke"

    NO SELL, NO SMELL, NO TELL!!!
