if not it was probally bought out by a differant company that he owns,that way people dont think its him

I read here in the last year or so that fox farm nutrients was bought out by monsanto as well.

These rumors are in fact rumors. There has been a company that was bought by Scotts but that was one of our competitors.

Hey @HouseNGarden welcome to the forum

Benefit of the doubt and all..

Not H&G, GH.

Monsanto owns both Scotts and MG now.
So literally, General Hydroponics has been purchased by Monsanto. Main reason I'm looking for another pharmaceutical grade nutrient that's as easy to mix Lucas formula with.

I've gotten used to growing awesomely delicious and aromatic cannabis with GH. Just amazing cannabis that stuns people who come across it. (love it!)

i hope H&G is just as good now, as it was when they manufactured it in the Netherlands!

best nutrient line i've ever used in 12+ yrs of hydro growing.

Mansanto does NOT own GH or Miracle Grow...or Scotts
Scotts has a contract with Mansanto as its distributer....thats it
it would be like saying that Botanicare owns Hydrofarm because they distribute Botanicare products
however Scotts did purchase GH
but Larry Brooke's Son-in-law...who has been running the company for ever....will remain running the company
and the manufacturing plants will remain in place......

"This agreement highlights the value of the Roundup brand and extends the relationship with a long-term, trusted partner"
ST. LOUIS--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Monsanto Company (NYSE: MON) and The Scotts Miracle-Gro Company (NYSE: SMG), the leading marketer of branded consumer lawn and garden products, today announced the two companies have extended their nearly two-decade long partnership in the lawn and garden consumer market.

Since 1999, Scotts Miracle-Gro, through one of its subsidiaries, has served as Monsanto's exclusive agent for the marketing and distribution of Roundup® non-selective herbicides in the consumer lawn and garden market within the United States and select international markets. Today’s agreement will unlock additional value in the Roundup brand in the lawn and garden segment by providing Scotts with an extended license to use the Roundup brand in new lawn and garden product categories and broaden their marketing rights into new geographies.

As part of the extension, Monsanto also renewed and expanded the terms of its marketing agreement with Scotts and provided preferred access to Monsanto’s R&D pipeline for lawn and garden.

“This agreement highlights the value of the Roundup brand and extends the relationship with a long-term, trusted partner,” said Kerry Preete, Monsanto Executive Vice President of Global Strategy. “It also further demonstrates our commitment to our broad licensing strategy. Monsanto looks forward to the continued partnership with Scotts as we work to deliver consumers with a diverse range of lawn and garden solutions.”

Under the agreement, Scotts will pay Monsanto a one-time upfront payment of $300 million in exchange for a Roundup® brand license, extended agency agreement and technology agreement.

Monsanto’s President and COO Brett Begemann will speak today at the BMO 10th Annual Farm to Market Conference at 11:30 AM CT (12:30 PM ET). Brett will discuss product performance, the company’s strategic initiatives and long-term growth drivers, and other matters related to the company’s business including today’s announcement with Scotts.
