I think that all chain hydro stores are terrible. It seems like the only ones that get good marks from ICmag'ers are the mom'n'pop shops.
 
Corey and everyone else at Way to Grow has always treated everyone that i work with very well and they stock everything you could ever need so they will keep getting our bidness.

I've been going to The Grow Store since 1999. I know, booooooo!

They give me the 20% everytime, no matter how much I purchase, and I used to shoot the shit with the owner, but he doesn't come in anymore, and I'm a lot older now, myself.
I will check out Way to Grow... aren't they in the Fort? Is there one in the Denver Metro area?????

The 20% has been really significant..... usually a couple hundred an order, so it ads up!

I still think someone should set up an express store, phone in, and go pick it up, like Grainger, or Johnstone Supply. Or like any supply shop, for any other industry. I have accounts at both Grainger and Johnstone, just for HVAC stuff. No sense paying Hydro store markups for stuff you can get cheaper elsewhere.

What hood are you getting for $230? My Radiant 8's were $150, before the discount.......... I love em!

XXXL...I had persuaded against them by an individual. Then someone gave me this thread:

http://www.icmag.com/ic/showthread.php?t=51325&highlight=reflector&page=1

They start testing the XXXL the last ten pages or so.

And when I got to Way to Grow, they were out. I paid and got a claim check. $183 was the final price.

Yeah, to be honest I wasn't very impressed with Way To Grow's lack of preparation for this sale. I was there today around 3pm and they were already out of virtually everything. The place looked like a crowded bodega. How can they run out of everything on day one of a 3 day sale? I didn't pay for a claim ticket, screw that. I'll go to a couple different places tomorrow and see if they will match WTG's 25% off sale price on lights and hopefully walk out with my stuff. I know 2 or 3 places that are likely to do it.

If GYO had them on hand...I would have gone to them. WTG has okay prices...but really...I just feel more at ease dealing with the GYO guys.

The couple of times I've been into WTG...they made me feel "unimportant". I don't need special treatment. I just don't want to walk out feeling like I'm an asshole.

Is anyone going to the cannibus convention? I'm going today. I'll be wearing my cowboy boots. I'm 6'5" pretty hard to miss.

With how big it is turning out to be, you might be missed in a sea of people.

I'm thinking the next one needs to be like the GABF, with on-site consumption.
Or fuck it, combine the two!

I'm about to leave for the convention, I'll try to take pics so I can report back later. I hope it's not like those unorganized pot lucks that are solely for the purpose of dispensary promotion. I'll be wearing tan cowboy boots. I'm tall as hell, blond and I wear glasses so if you think you see me introduce yourself as your handle, I'll do the same.

Main stage w/ a band and hot chicks showing off hemp clothing. They did lots of giveaways here. This is where the speakers will be tomorrow.

A Giant Kush Banner greets you as you enter. The entire event was sponsored by the magazine/website so you will find free copy's of this publication everywhere you look.

Here is the main drag as you come into the DCC. Sorry I'm not that good at taking pics. At least I blurred out all of the faces I could see. The majority of the booths are dispensaries that have pictures of bud, offers of discounted bud for your cargivership, and coupons for their shops. There were a decent amount of paraphernalia vendors as well. There is also a guy that makes local ewc for super cheap! But I was let down with a lack of hydro vendors. There was one booth with a grow box for sale, and a few LED light booths.

I think the best stuff was being saved for tomorrow. It's $15 per ticket. I may go again. All of the speakers are scheduled for tomorrow.

Oh and there are hot chicks that know absolutely nothing about cannabis everywhere you look advertising things. I love conventions.
 
I went to the convention today also. Hot advertising chicks galore. Is it funny or sad that I recognized two of the girls from Shotgun Willies? Anyway, the experience was about what I expected. Glad I went today but wont be going back tomorrow. Been there done that...

I went yesterday, but not too exciting.
Balazar said it, complete lack of Hydro Technologies. Even that guy selling the cabinet was full of shit. He was just a metal worker, had no idea how DWC worked (i did not ask questions, but by his design it was pretty obvious)...or at least not as good of an idea as people on this website. The other problem was, a cab is supposed to blend in with it's surroundings...not some big grey metal box.

Lot's of strippers, dispensaries and glassware...
I think some of the Zob glassware was the highlight of the convention for me.
It was also nice to talk to dispensary owners face-to-face, without having to drive all around town.

Got me thinking, though. I need to diversify my bonds and shit, yo!

P.S. I support single mothers and high-school dropouts.
