2012 Max Yield Indoor Gardening Expo in Novi June 2-3

I can't believe there isn't already a thread for this. I've seen lots of photos of the treasure troves of free samples brought home from years past, but I've never attended. I'll be there this year. Anyone have photos from previous years?

150 views and zero replies. I guess I'm the only one going?

Found some photos from years past

I want to go to this, I love Gardening, not just my meds but my food also

No sir, i will be attending. Especially after seeing all the vendors.

I am so jealous. I would really love to be there. I would go to growing expos every weekend.

They are awsome those expos very educational(always somthing to learn even after 25 yrs of doing it) and free samples cant go wrong there Hey Silas do you know if there is an entrance fee for general public?

I'll be there this year

There is a fee. I think it's only 10$ but I'd bring a few dollars extra to make sure you're covered. June 2nd is a vendors only day and Sunday, June 3rd from 10-5 is public.

Bummer, wish it was open friday since I'll be near there then.

I have a question that I hope someone can help me with. The Max Yield shows are set up so that the first day is open to so called industry insiders or retailers. Then the 2nd day is for the general public.

I have an opportunity to attend the first day with a buddy who is a retailer but was wondering if the vendors hand out samples to the retailers. Or should I wait and go the day it's open to the public? Basically I am going in hopes to score some nice product samples so if anyone has any info on which day would be the best to go, in terms of samples or giveaways I would love to hear some input.

Thanx

Me and my girl will be making the drive down on sunday.

Here we go! Up and at em! I've been looking forward to this day for 5 months or so now! Already had a few hippie speedballs (joint+coffee) I'll make sure to post photos of my treasures.

Thanks silus. Have a great time, learn a bunch!

lol we gettin ready to head there also. and believe it or not me and my old lady just finished up some of those hippie speedballs ourselves

Free ticket in hand. Should be leaving soon. Replace coffee with green tea and I am right there with you guys. lol

Holy crap, that place was heaven. I won a 1800$ liquid cooled LED grow light from the Superior Growers Supply's Wheel of Fortune game they had at their booth, as well as a HydroFarm Hot House. Ended up with about 800 dollars worth of nute samples, and 3 tee shirts, not to mention all of the new contacts I made. I'll be posting photos of my loot later tonight. I wanna set everything all out nice looking for a photo OP lol

BTW, were any of you guys wearing High Times Medical Cannabis Cup 2011 Hoodie sweater?

You aren't kidding silus, that was craziness. I had a blast, I won 3 gallons of GH nutes and my girl won an auto pot system, a bag of coco, and 5 gallons of terra vega nutes on the wheel. We ended up with a trunk full of goodies including shirts, pots, countless nutes and every kind of myco you can think of. I will be attending next year as well if they have it, we met alot of really awesome people and learned quite a bit.

I'm pretty sure I was the only guy there wearing a purple T-shirt, a few of you probably spotted me lol.
I will post a picture of our spoils soon.

i thought the place was great and alot of the vendors were excellent.....the only thing i had a problem with was the sample whores..countless times i was talking to a vendor and someone would come up and say "can i get some samples" i mean atleast bullshit with the guy for a min and dont just look like a freebie whore.......that being said, i think i got enough cal/mag supplement for the rest of the year lol
