Botanicare's new SLACKER soilless mix

[GR33NL3AF]

Anyone check this product out yet? I believe Botanicare just released it. Sounds like a great all-round soil/coco mix.

They way they are describing it in the FAQ..is that it might replace 25% of nute??..at least that is how I read it. It still sounds good..I wonder what the pricetag will be.

Hydro farm has it wholesale for $16 per 1.5, retail $28!!!! Does sound legit, especially for a SOG, low veg, lollipoper like me, hardly any nute costs.

Treg Botanica$h is borrowing roots organics designs now, have you heard about his KIND nutrients coming out on 4/20? Too bad he doesn't endorse growing cannabis, although you could almost fool me otherwise :artist:

It does sound interesting for the coco guys but I would opt out of the trichoderma in there personally.

I have a friend who is a botanicare rep.
He also does testing for them. He had lots of trouble with the kind.
Im suprised its getting released so soon.

Can't miss that 4/20 release date :D
I really haven't heard anything about it, just laughed at the date.

Treg is a trip, I've met him a couple times..a different cat for sure

Ya the bag is loaded with organic fertilizers but the suggested retail price is ridiculous for 1.5 cu ft.

 

[sealed138]

Nobody pays suggested retail though.... Do they?

Supposedly the hydrolite/perlite offers all the aeration you need. Shit's crazy heavy, tho.

I'm start another threat on batch64. That stuff looks great on paper.

Standard markup in my area is 30-35%, sometimes less if the store is able to buy bulk, that puts a bag at $21-22. Still pretty pricey...
