Hi Reap! *pinch.
If you want to grow cheap, you have to match your style with your location and the spaces available, and be willing to work carefully and creatively within those confines, and still be able to recognize when it ISN'T okay to skimp on your expenses (correct exhaust, and heavy duty grounded timers for example). Don't overthink it though!
Well... geez... bunch of stoners with comprehension problems? Ummmmm... let's play 'count the PhDs' or 'count the small business owners' or 'count the independent contractors' or pretty much any other measure of intelligence/success around here and you run out of fingers and toes pretty damn quick.
I'm glad you like the stickies, because I think- just a hunch- that you might just have alienated a LOT of potentially very helpful people... I can only speak for myself though. Good luck man.
