Have you looked at my journal? I don't use all Advanced Products...I use so much shit it will make you puke but I'm not and Advanced fan boy at all. They just produce a few products that work just as well as other products, but in some cases are even more economical(like my Big Swell Example above). Every company has dozens of bottles now, not just Advanced. Botanicare has a whole wall of additives, as does GH, as does Roots, as does Fox Farm, etc, etc....
I am the guy behind the counter btw...There are better and cheaper alternatives to GH 3 part. One is Jungle Juice GMB(exact copy of GH 3 part) , and another is a GMB from Grow More that's almost identical, except it even has more trace elements and is cheaper than both Jungle Juice and GH. Maybe if that's your gardening style you should go into your local hydro shop and buy one of those products. Oh wait your giving up synthetics right? Check out Cutting Edge GMB it's also cheaper and almost all organic.....
Write GH and ask them why Advanced 3 part is cheaper than theirs....Before you come and tell me how to garden or what it is you think I know, take the time to try and really understand the person you are engaging with, and not just throw them in with some generalized idea you have for the people that use a particular product.
Seriously no hard feeling. I just think you got a little wound up when you saw an Advanced thread, and needed to get your hatred out. I can completely understand those feeling. Good luck in your transition to organics, and I wish you success.
