as most do, i frequent other sites to see what else is going on in the community.
there is a gentlemen called doubleds from another forum who may be one of canadas most respected med pot growers.
he is boycotting house and garden for many shady tactics.
here is what happened
"Official Boycott thread for house & garden CANADA
This is for CANADA only !!
I am writing this thread with alot of dissappointment. Most of you know me for my tree grows but i would rather be known for the meds we give away free to the over 62 med patients we grow for. What most of you dont know is all the patients and designated growers that can barely afford to grow there own, all the help we give them also. My front man buys large quantities of nutes from several different companies and equipment also. This in turn is sold to medical growers and designated growers for 5.00 per piece up to 4 pieces above cost.
ie. 10 items bought, 6 items at absolute cost and 4 items at cost plus 5.00.
This way med patients that are on welfare, dissability or part time jobbers because thats all they can do with there illness can still afford to grow there own medicine.
we monitor the peoples incomes that deal with us very closely so we are not taking any business away from the local hydro shops. If they can afford to pay they can only buy retail.
Jake & Dan (dutchtrading.ca)(house and garden distributors for canada) drove down to the maritimes a while back and met with my front man about these nutes. It was explained completely up front what we were doing and they agreed there was no problem and they would supply us with what we needed. They gave us 3 sample box's and they were off. We tested out the algen, multi zen and the roots excelerator and were pleased with the results until we tried other things and until we got our first official order of house and garden nutes. The samples were 3 times stronger than the regular product, that meant we needed 3 times more product than what the samples were. Most of you remember the first timers thread, he said he was going to try somthing else for root growth and added liquid stim root 5000 to his res rather that the roots excelerator. he never used the algen and he uses the canna zymes and had 2wice the root growth than he did with roots excelerator. His 2nd run he averaged 3.7 pounds per plant. stim root 5000, 1 litre bottle is 100.00 in canada and you only use 1 oz per 100 gallon res.
My front man placed an order on tuesday and everything was fine. On wednesday jake picked up the phone and called the 2 hydroponic shops that are in this area. Although these shops never carried house and garden nutes he offered them credit and they accepted.
My front man got a call this morning from jake saying that the owners of the 2 shops complained that we were getting nutes wholesale when we didnt have a storefront. THIS IS COMPLETE BULLSHIT BECAUSE THE OWNERS OF THE 2 SHOPS ARE MY BEST FRIENDS and would never trade the 120,000 per year that i spend in there shops for maybe 20,000 profit off h&g nutes.
Jake is a fuckin liar and has screwed many medical patients with his lies. Both stores have agreed not to carry house & garden nutes at risk of losing our business.
I hope all CANADIANS will join us in the boycott, your not missing anything anyway, theres only 1 product they put out worth anything, roots excelerator but stim root 5000 liquid does 2wice the job and costs 1/5 the amount.
Lets show a company what screwing med patients does to them.
A letter is also being sent off to house & garden head office telling them whats been done here."
