Business Combination and Asset Acquisition [Abstract]  
ACQUISITIONS ACQUISITIONS
 
Our acquisition strategy is to acquire (i) well established profitable hydroponic garden centers in markets where the Company does not have a market presence or in markets where it is increasing its market presence; and (ii) proprietary brands and private label brands. The Company accounts for acquisitions in accordance with ASC 805 “Business Combinations.” Assets acquired and liabilities assumed are recorded in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets at their estimated fair values, as of the acquisition date. For all acquisitions, the preliminary allocation of the purchase price was based upon a preliminary valuation, and the Company’s estimates and assumptions are subject to change within the measurement period as valuations are finalized. The Company has made adjustments to the preliminary valuations of the acquisition based on valuation analysis prepared by independent third-party valuation consultants. All acquisition costs are expensed as incurred and recorded in general and administrative expenses in the consolidated statements of operations.
