No he didn't talk me into grow dots lol. I tried recharge and that actually works really well so I thought I'd just give grow dots a try. On paper, it seems like they should work really well with autos but there is really only one way to find out lol. I usually run Fox Farm nutes with Fox Farm soil, unless I'm messing around or experimenting. I kept a clone alive inside of a mason jar for over a month lol, for no reason except just to see what would happen.
