Best and Worst buys

[Gingerbeard]

Worst buys - Engagement rings and wedding rings.
Best purchases - My cardboard salt shaker, that came with a cardboard pepper shaker, that has lasted longer than both marriages put together. The $.89 pair of kitchen scissors that has lasted longer than my cardboard salt shaker.

Exactly.... search Photoboost led ... I’m sure at least 4 will pop up

 

[Gingerbeard]

Thanks, folks. I've written down the name of the company and will look into it.

Hard to say best -

Worst was : VIVOSUN 48"x48"x80" Mylar Hydroponic Grow Tent

Too rickety. Was not able to hang a hood and light on it with any confidence. (Secret Jardin tents have been awesome)

 

[9fingerleafs]

yep, i think we got a winner

Backing up my best buys talk with more buckets! Might make me some eggplant colors when painting the buckets. :hard-laugh: Farmall

 

[Farmall]

I’ve got the paint !!

Worst buys: blurple led lights, automatic watering systems that were too small to support my plants, anything from Ipower I bought has broken down after short term use, 4” virtual sun centrifugal fan (bearing issues after 1 year use), booster fans, &1 gallon clone bucket that made 80 F and above water temps in a 70F room.
Best Buy’s: HPS/MH grow lights, swamp cooler with auto fill, humidity and temp switches, water chillers for hydro and aeroponic applications, 5 gallon 25 site aero cloner, t5 UV bulbs (better quality final product), grove bags (no more burping jars), digital hygrometers, grow light specific sunglasses, & Fish Sh!t along with hydroguard (beneficial bacteria’s).

Worst: preciva ph tester/probe. Inexpensive and acted accordingly. Get what you pay for.They did refund my purchase so kudos for that.
Best buy was a 238W QB style light from True Northern Lighting. It has grown quality flowers one after another for less then $1.30/watt purchase price - canadian dollars too. Autopopts have also worked out well.
Any other negatives are most likely caused by my errors.

I guess there are some "best":

FFOF soil; Technaflora nutes; Secret Jardin 4x4x6.5 tent; Dominator hood and 1000x MH/HPS bulbs; Govee WiFi Digital Indoor Hygrometer Thermometer, Wireless Temp Humidity Sensor Humidity

I thought I had too many planters for the balcony garden but now that it is harder to get them in quarantine, I am wondering if I have enough (for non-canna plants too!)

i gotta share this, i bought this gamma seals to make any 5 gal bucket into an air tight container, two of them for 25 usd, ive been using them a couple of weeks and they work great, no smell getting out and no more over drying. one bucket can hold 1to 2 pounds

[SoOrbudgal]

I love fish shit for plants

 

[RFheavy]

If a light company decides to have some kind of monster quarantine sale, I might be screwed!

 

[Toker1]

Yes, been very happy with those results I get from it too.

 

[Drekthar]

They don't sell on amazon but you can buy directly from the company a la carte now in the build your own variety pack and don't have to buy by the 1000/case. Here's the link - https://grovebags.com/store/

 

[NickyChicks]

Other than the make your own packs, they also sell smaller packs for home growers. I just bought a pack of 50 it was under $50. I haven't used mine yet but im excited to see how well they work
