ever been thrown out of your local grow shop?

i did a super dumb thing at the local hydro shop. i have been buying there for about a year and have been given really spot on advice.we were talking about clone and stuff like carbon filters so i asked how to improve "resin " production -next thing i know he was like i cant sell you anything and asked be to leave the store.
i felt like a total asshole and walked out. i quess that tomatoe's dont have "resin" -

i know it was a dumb move on my part -anyone else ever experiance this?

Never got thrown out myself.
But the guy at my local grow store told me he has to ask at least one person a day to leave because of the terminology they used.
 
i was alone in the store -it wasnt like i announced it in front of anyone else-
but i have to find a new shop i guess
i will miss the advice though..

no worries, just go back in a week or two
this time, use what you have learned
My :2cents:, better info here, than what you find at a hydro shop
remember, they are trying to SELL you stuff, even if it may not be needed :joint:

yes i agree but the advice was spot on. i would like to go back but i feel like such a total bonehead-i found another shop even closer that actually is a little cheaper

i like to make it a game. i'll tell him i can't wait for my tomatoes and we will wink and laugh. these shops in California don't so much care though as you can be a legit 215.
 
any guru's help me out im running a 600 watt flood and drain set up
using "dnf" nutrient and big bud. 5 plants of serious seeds ak47
how do i improve essential oil production?

they do that because you might be a UC for all they know, and if they continue to help you and supply you, they could conceivably be charged with aiding and abetting a mj grow or something like that.

:laughing:

the guys at my shop are cool as long as noone else is in there. theres always greatful dead tunes playing in there and the owner knows his shit. Ive always been curious about asking about trading some cuttings, but i dont know what to expect so i never ask. :confused:

at my store, i openly asked whhen is the earliest i could put my plants from my closet to outdoors without them preflowering... hahah he told me what he knew, and about his hydro grow, that was the second time being in there, theres 3-4 grow stores in my town, so i found a cheaper friendlier one already, but i was very nieve last summer
