So, is GLA not doing plants anymore? Anyone know what's up?

Last I was in contact they said they were redoing their greenhouse. I have tried reaching out again but not received a response. This really stinks too because their plants were excellent.

I wish GLA would offer bulk size sales on dry fertilizer products.

There's not a ton of profit in dry ferts to begin with unless you sell very high volume. Throw in the cost of fancy packaging it becomes even less. Plus the cost of shipping several lbs, plus storing it. My guess is not enough aquarists are in the market for 5-10 lb bags to make it worthwhile

A good place to buy bulk sizes is MBFerts.com. Macros are dirt cheap relatively speaking. There's no fancy packaging. Its gonna come in a plain zip-loc bag with what it is written in sharpie. They tell you this upfront, and is a main reason prices are low

Looks like they re-branded their fertilizer line to include liquid fertilizers. The plants seem to have been removed from their shopping cart. I too had heard they were re-doing their greenhouse.

I just checked their website and they are more expensive than nilocg! Maybe they changed pricing.

Bruh Colin only goes to 5 lbs. When I said "bulk" I meant like 20+. MB has KNO3 20 lbs for 49.99 free shipping (2.50 lb)

Still I think you overlook shipping because theyre close on 1-5 lb

1 lb from Colin $4.50+10 ship= $14.50. 1 lb MB $14.99 free ship
5 lb from Colin $18+10 ship=$28 (5.60 lb) 5 lbs MB $24.99 free ship ($5 lb)

You get a nice bag from Colin though. MB comes in a clear zip loc with whats in it written in sharpie. Id definitely just go with Colin for lesser amounts
