..you feel naked without your EC/PPM and pH pens..

..you have loads of water in containers around the place, while it warms up to room temp and evaporates chlorine..

..you've become a control freak as you play god over each tiny element of your grow..

... you feel just as proud about your root ball as you do your buds.
... you spend more money on your water bill than your electric bill.
... you no longer fear being spotted in the Garden center for the second time in a month buying 10 cubic feet of promix, but rather knowing that a grow is coming to an end and having to clean your hydroton.

I just came back from my fave hydro store - I never have enuff $$$ when I'm there (I could use some of this, a some of those, and a few of these)...

Picked up some airstones (cheaper than wallymart), hydroton, net pots, air hose...

Free mag (max yield), and chatted w/ the guys for awhile.

I like them - they always recognize me, and are always friendly and helpful.

The owner was bummed - he had to put his dog down this a.m.

Happy Hydroponics, Princess St., Hamilton...

This isn't spam - I'm not associated w/ them, I get no pay for recommending them, just that they are honest, inexpensive and always friendly and helpful...

They get all my biz - I wish I could buy more there...

...you think of the sun as little more than a large HPS.

...you look at homes and structures as little more than sheltered, conditioned power sources.

...You find yourself jacking off in the rez.

...when you feel flustered and stressed having to do any type of hand watering!
 
...when your spare-parts collection rivals some hydro shops' inventories.
...you can't keep anything alive that's in dirt.
...that trickle of the RDWC doesn't make you have to pee.

I have started to wear a lab coat in public and carry my PH pen in my front pocket.

You know your a hydro grower when you call the hydro store and they answer the phone by saying hi and your first name (Fking caller ID). And they hang up reminding you to park in the back.

....every container that could possibly hold water becomes a bucket or res.
....throughout the day you wonder if you remembered to plug something back in or not.
....you can't use the same method of growing or system more than once without upgrading or making massive modifications("improvements").
....you spend most of your time on ICMAG in the hydro forums drooling.
