Anyone using jacks in floraflex? I am using masterblend tomato and the lines are a pita..i will go to a bigger pump as well but i was thinking of trying jacks or floraflex nutes to see if it stops the clog.

I am using Foraflex one thing I noticed is that the salts dissolve incredibly fast. Sometimes before I can even mix.

Price looks great but I wonder how easy it is to use? And how do you store it?
I think I’m on year 3 of the regular BL pen and it’s still cals within .1 usually.
I like the way the cap has a silicone pocket that you put a few drops of storage solution in. It keeps it in there and I think it helps the probe last longer.

It's kind of expensive but It most likely saved me from breaking it.
Found out my local store has it much cheaper

So been trying to do semi low Free shipping limits and after 10 months of running it, its not sustainable. This year I'm up to about $5K+ in free shipping that I have to ride on till till I do year end taxes to write and its about $500-1000 each month added to probably add in another $1000-2000 before the end of the year.

I would have to be at least as busy with in store sales as before the COVID lock downs to even make it remotely feasible to give low Free shipping levels. So two options, either go lower on prices but increase the Free shipping limits or higher prices and lower shipping limits. Atm 30% of orders I lose money on because of the weight of the products/shipping distance vs shipping costs and the other 70% I lose about 40-50% profit to free shipping.

I totally understand that AquaTerra
Do you what you have to do to stay alive.
I notice my local shop is always vacant of customers whenever I go in there now a days. They were CRAZY busy after legalization and expanded to double their size. Imo those lucrative times seem to be over there. They look to be always shipping stuff out though whenever I'm there.
The home guy simply doesn't buy enough to make them busy in the store is my guess. They service some local LP's but I imagined are low balled so far it's not that profitable. Those big companies will dump you like their morning shit over a few dollars. Always your few dollars too.
I get the idea, although not said, that they are not nearly as busy as it was 2 years ago.
Just my take is all.

I'm gonna stop carrying Bluelab they jacked up their prices quite a bit in the last 3 years. The Guardian just went up $40 wholesale. Gonna go with HM Digital. So far no complaints on the Hydro Master 500.

Looks like a nice meter. I like the easy to read led display. Good luck on selling those. I'd buy one if I needed it.

Yah unfortunately the little guy is one time purchase and say $300 profit on a set up then small amounts after that. A regular guy with 40 lights is 4-5K sales per month and about 20% profit margin average. I'd need 100's of those little guys.

The little guy back in the day was where you really took care of them as that little guy would become a 20+ lighter guy with in 4-8 crops.

Yah another store closed down in eastern BC and they been around for a while. Some of the wholesaler from what I hear are going to close down and if nothing changes after border opening with in say 4 months I would say 40% of stores will close with in the next year.

After that is going to be a blood bath with foreclosures if there's no mobement in the market and price for descent stuff stays at $600. I talked to another customer yesterday and he said in two month is nothing changes he's out and who he is and the connections he has that's pretty hardcore. Some other guys like him have already shut down.

Pretty fucked up that there's just no way to legally make money from weed with out going broke of that million $ micro LP build out is chump change to you.
