Really? I have used the Power Trip products and so have some of my friends. I haven't had any issues with any of my equipment and neither have my friends as far as I know. I've heard nothing but good things about the company.
Thanks guys. I have to say all the good advice you guys posted will be for future reference because I had some computer problems and the last time I checked this thread there was no replies yet and I had to go with what I knew. I went out to the organically grown in cranston (I think thats where it was) and I have to say I'm not pissed but I'm not exactly happy either. I thought I would have gotten a little better of a deal than I did.
I got:
1-1000 watt sun light supply (I think thats the name, white mag ballast) switchable ballast
1- yield master air cooled reflector (the smallest one of course)
1-1000 watt hps hortilux bulb, nothing special
1- 6"x24" carbon filter (phresh filter I think ???)
1 - 4x4 grow tent (this fucker has holes that are perfect for light leaks all over it, thankfully my room can be blacked out during lights out, fuck....why did I buy a tent though right???)
1- 60 site ez cloner (I think this was the best piece of gear I purchased)
I wasnt going to buy the cloner initially and I could have gotten a bigger tent and probably 2 600's to put in there but I really needed that cloner. I cant clone for shit using the traditional method, I took 40+ clones, I think like 6 are still living, not good at all. I fired up that ez cloner 11 days ago and roughly all of the clones I put in popped roots 2 days ago, I'm just waiting for the slow ones to catch up but as far as I can see its a 100% first run.
The only thing I need now is more nutes so that will be my next purchase, I am slowly running out of everything. In the beginning I purchased technifloras recipe for success which I think was the best thing they could have sold me at that place, but I am running out of all of the products, some I've purchased quart bottles of are now down to nothing and it seems like its all the most expensive shit, thrive alive b1 red, sugar daddy, superthrive, hygrozyme. Definitely the most expensive products......
But again, I thank all of you for the input, I will definitely be using it. I do like saving the $ when I buy online but I also like being able to jump in my car and go get what I need, paying a little more isnt that big of a deal and it is nice to be able to go back to the place I bought the stuff at if I do have a problem. However, with my milwaukkee PH/PPM/EC meter, being able to go back there isnt proving to be of any help, they carry a replacement probe for the MW850, they sell the MW802. Dont ask me why, but they dont carry the replacement probe for the "best meter money can buy" as I was told, obviously theres no need for a replacement but they should have at least ordered the fucking thing for me, but no go......cant get it.... Now I guess at my PPM/EC and use the little dripper method for ph. I cant take it much longer but lack of cash is preventing me from ordering a new one at the moment, I wanted to buy one when I went to the "big" store when I purchased the light and all that, but they only had the 850 probe as well...
I'm ready to abandon growing and start selling the products to grow, seems like its much more lucrative and theres no need to ever say sorry.....
Thank you for the help again, and sorry for the store rant, once I started I couldnt stop.....hopefully the next time I use one of those stores that were mentioned I wont have so much to complain about.....
Hey fellas I apologize for the delay, I ran into some problems that day and ended up forgetting what I was supposed to do.
But heres what I payed for everything:
Yield master 2 classic 6" $99.95
6" inline fan 440CFM $169.95
Phresh filter 6"x24" $177.95
crop master 1000 watt switchable ballast $173.95
ultra sun 1000 watt HPS bulb $56.95
sun hut XL (4x4x7) $229.95
EZ-clone 60 site $339.95
clonex solution, quart $22.95
sub total $1271.60
tax $89.01
total $1360.61
In the next few weeks I have some money coming to me so I will be looking to get another tent setup, probably a 4x8 minimum with 2 1000 watt HPS lights, basically another complete setup so I have some shopping around to do. I also want to switch to earth juice, any places in RI carry the entire line? I want to stock up on everything so I dont have to take anymore hour long rides for a single bottle of hygrozyme or whatever, but I'd like to buy a little higher quality products this time around rather than just the cheapest shit to get me going, I'm going...so its time to get some HQ stuff.....suggestions? RI is actually out of state for me so I am looking to find the closest place as well as one with a little different selection of stuff than organically grown. I gotta say I like the people there, they always treat me decent but it always seems I get treated decent after I start piling up hundreds of dollars worth of shit on the counters. I spent that $ I listed out above but I cant tell you how many times I've gone in there and blew every dime in my pocket, and most times I go there with at least a few hundred on me, I tend try and leave cash and credit cards home so I can only spend a set amount because I'll walk out of there with shit I have zero need for as we all will sometimes.
But as far as what I will be trying to buy in the next couple of weeks,
Depending on how much I can get the lights for, if I get a 4x8 I wanna do 2 1k's, if I end up getting an 8x8 I wanna do either 2 1k's on movers or 3 600's on movers. Not sure which is gonna work out better.
Another inline fan 10 or 12 inch for expandability, maybe 2.
Carbon filters, probably 2
Some kind of light controller that I can wire into my service, 3 1000 k lights is a lot of juice to work with off my service as its a sub-service panel that was basically intended for a small office with only 1 20 amp breaker in it, which I am managing not to use at the moment with my entire grow thats going on now, so I think I could run the 2 1k's off of that with the proper planning and provisions.
The earthjuice line of nutes,
a gallon or 2 of hygrozyme
The only real thing I have set in stone is the style of growing I will be doing which will be lots of smaller plants, as big of a SOG I can do in these tents with 20-24 inch clones, either in coco or in hempies so I'm going to need a whole lot of pots as well.
Theres quite a few dollars worth of shit I want/need, I already have a decent grow setup going on so this is all bonus stuff so I wont be buying shit I am in a pinch for seeing I dont actually need it, so I'd like to get my $ worth this time possibly trying to make a deal at one of these places. Any recommendations of places that any of you guys did something similar with when buying a lot of shit at once?
Thanks again and sorry for the delay on posting that info for you.
