What’s worth the fifteen minutes
- Indoor-first gear, which is what Connecticut’s rules require. Lights matched to the tent, fans, filters and dehumidifiers sized to the room, and the media and nutrients to go with them. Tell us the space and we’ll build the list.
- Someone to talk to. Bring photos of your room, a leaf in a bag, your feed chart. Most problems are a five-minute conversation.
- Live clones. Rooted, health-screened cuts from The Clone Foundry, fresh stock arriving daily. About our clones.
- Free classes. Grow classes every Saturday and a mushroom class once a month. Free, with pizza. RSVP on the calendar.
- Free Clone Fridays. Spend $40 in store on a Friday and take a plant start home. How it works.
- Used equipment. We buy and sell used lights, dehumidifiers, controllers and trimmers — bring yours in on the way up.
