What are some of the biggest mistakes you've made as a grower? And how would you help a new

grower avoid these mistakes, man? There's a lot of things learning coming into the grow,

Scotty. How's it growing? Granbo Scotty, welcome to the dude grow show. Hey, what's going on,

dude? Oh, what's going on? What's growing on is I see here right off the bat, you know, buying cheap gear, buy once, cry once. I don't know if I like that saying, buy once, cry once. That means like you buy the best stuff.

No, I mean, you just buy the nuts. It means spend a little bit more, cry about maybe it cost you a little bit more, but you only have to buy it once. When you go and buy

the cheapest thing, then a lot of times it's kind of temporary. You know, it's going to last you

for nine months and then you got to replace it. So when it comes to grow lights, when it comes to

grow gear, buy something of quality, buy something you're not going to have to replace every

year or isn't going to be outdated.

It does depend on usage frequency. A good one my neighbor told me. He's like, hey, you want to go buy a power tool from Harbor Freight? As long as it's one you're using to get a job or two done, you know, you know, you don't need a Milwaukee or, you know, I'm a tree guy.

something but me and plant parenthood Jake were doing a bunch of landscape and and I had the what's

the one that the Royobi I had a roobie chainsaw and And that lasted right till the end of our single job. This man, right off the bat. How about the meat and potatoes, man? Media, grow media, soil and nutrients for a plant. What your plants are using to grow and feed on. Yeah. That's not a cheap of your tree is out there. I was more thinking of soil.

Think about how easy it is to go to buying Miracle Grows soil at Home Depot or... Do not do that.

Even the cheap cocoa bricks that you can buy or cheap cocoa, it's if you don't appreciate the differences or understand a difference between a good soil and a bad soil, man, that's a big

deal. And it's a lot more expensive for good soil. Yeah. Now, when you're talking soil, just to clarify,

to me, soil means it's a mix. You know, it's probably some peat, maybe some worm, it's got a little

bit of this and that, whereas media, media, that's like a nerve. I'm going with cocoa. I'm going with straight peat. I'm going with just to clarify a little bit. And it depends on your grow style. All of it. What do you want to call it media or soil? Just don't skimp out on it. It's what your plants are growing in. It has a lot to do.

The pH of your media has a lot to do with nutrient availability. What's in there? I mean,
