Looking for some guidance

My husband went to rehab for 4 1/2months and got out 2 1/2 months ago. Since being out he has smoked pot a few times and when I have confronted him about it he said he did not realize pot would be a problem, that he thought alcohol was his only problem. This is after I called his sponsor and counsler and asked them. I told him that they both said he is now in active addiction again, from the moment that joint touched his lips and he did not call them. He then told me he will stop smoking it and now realizes that he is an addict also, and that by smoking it will lead him back to drinking. However,this is where I need guidance, he has not been in touch with his sponsor or counsler for well over a month and I have been finding the hidden packets of fake pot in his garbage in the shed where he hangs out. He does not dare tell me he is smoking it cause I already caught him doing it before, and told him it is no differant from the real pot. I have not mentioned anything to him cause I am not supposed to be obsessing over what he is doing, which believe me I am not, and I am also suppossed to be detaching, which I have been. I have found over 20 packs in his garbage in just over a month, I check every couple of weeks. This is at $15- $20 a pop. Should I be saying anything? He is keeping that from me and he is not telling his sponsor. He does go to his meeting everyday, but is he only half doing his recovery? Fake pot is still not supposed to be consumed is it? It is still a mind altering substance. When I said something to him over a month ago, he said its his recovery and let him work it the way he wants to work it for what will work for him. This whole thread might sound rambled, but I am thinking a thousand thoughts at the moment, hope this makes sense. Should I show him all the packs I found and ask him why is lying?Not to mention all the money he is spending, he is on unemployment
