Much of mine was on seeds. I'm a junky for good genetics.

on this current grow here, I spent around $75, and that's for everything, the ballast, the bulb, the nutrients, soil, and containers. But I like to build things and do electric shit so I just made it all myself. Even the reflector, though it's probably not as efficient as others, its was only $3.50.

well, let's try this again as I liked the idea.
I've spent $1000 on 70 bales of coco.
Roughly $5000 on my bulbs, hoods, and ballasts.
Over $1000 on my pots (those square thick walled pots are nearly $5 each!)
I've spent at least $750 on nutrients that are currently in my possession, it's hard to say the actual value as I pitch in with friends who order drums of GH, bulk amounts of fulvic/humics, bloombastic, etc. I only really consider the cost of nutrients my plants are consuming per grow as I care more for the daily or monthly operation costs than what I stock up on.
Random little things are what really hurts the budget, for example I bought a dozen 5 or 6 ft lengths of chain and that cost me $100. A 100' roll of mylar cost me $100. Speed controllers I probably wont use @ $40 each.
Power center with timers @ $1200 which I figure is my best investment. I purchased a BlueLab Truncheon and Guardian which ran me $500 and have yet to use the Truncheon.
On seeds and clones it varies, I'm not someone who collects seeds when I buy seeds I germinate them right away and I generally run a lot of seeds as I'm always looking for new potential winners to run outdoors. In the last 10 years I've easily spent $3000+ on seeds and I'm getting into seed purchases more and more, and for a couple of years I was buying 50 clones off a fellow grower for $5-10 dollars a clone. These costs are completely avoidable however but do impact operation costs.

Well I have to say that I spent 3,000 on the entire setup. The seeds where the cheapest part of the setup. Wood, bulbs, ballists, and everything that goes with it. Not easy but the plants have everything they need to grow.

The biggest chunk on my money was taken by the 400W HPS cooltube, which was about $230, then it was just a few 2x4's and some ply
