    Default Cost of growing

    Has anyone ever worked out the cost of growing?
    I know it’s difficult as the more you use your gear (tents, lights, ballasts, etc) the more the cost reduces, and factors like time of year and varieties all play a part.
    I know mines probably way more than I think but I love doing it so within reason sod the cost.
    Just interested in thoughts

    Never really thought about it. But each grow for me....roughly
    2 bags of coco =£30
    1ltr of A&B =£20
    1ltr of Rhizo =£30
    Seeds =£30
    1ltr liquid silicon =£15
    4ltrs of Gpm =£50 every 2 or 3 grows
    1l ltr of pk13/14 =€20 every 2 or 3 grows
    Bulbs every few grows =£30 quid

    Add in leccy cost.....probably talking the price of two oz?


    Best no thinking of it all actually

    The ones that invent a price then double or triple it. Online / Ebay / Amazon that prey on the lockdown.
