"When I sent the order to the warehouse, they said we need to re-stock."

It sounds like growth pains. Not just selling a lot, but lack of communication between the warehouse and the leadership in WV.

The former's not in their control. But, the latter is. There should be daily reports of inventory. There should never be a circumstance where the warehouse has to tell WV they're out of stock, especially waiting for an accepted order to trigger that notification.

(While I'm offering opinions: changing the domain name from .com to .net is unusual just to update the site design, shopping cart, etc. That's an unnecessary disruption. The DNS for .com should be updated to point to the same place the .net domain does.).

Y'all know that the West Coast ports are essentially all shut down and have been straggling for weeks. Probably the #1 cause , since everyone across the country is flipping out over their supply chains...shit has been taking a real long time to get to some people........

70% of what comes thru China is heading thru the West Coast 1st on a normal day, but there is a probably a 1-2 month backlog at least of shipping floating out in the LA harbor, right now.......because of the slowdown, which is affecting LOTS. :peace:

I was on a mountain area of laguna beach a week ago and you can see San Pedro from there, there were a lot of cargo ships parked all over out there. I've never seen anything like it.
dang you got good eyes. San Pedro harbor is on the other side of long beach. I used to go there with my brother to pick up live lobsters cheap. I do know you can see several beaches from the mountain. I used to party in one of those mansions when I was younger.

When it's clear like it's been you can see pretty far. To the left of the 133 when you get downtown laguna like top of the world off park ave. I was a little further off bluebird cnyn. What a view from the house we were working on that's when I saw the ships, looked like an invasion force. Very surreal.

Sent from my SM-G900V using Rollitup mobile app
They're anchored everywhere off long beach and San pedro, my bad it was the coast of long beach I could see those ships dotted everywhere and on the news they said the talks are heating up. Hopefully it gets done soon.

My plants have been just dying under theses lights. I've had 5 RW150's for about 6 weeks now. I'd buy a 6th one if I could get a plant healthy. Take the same plant, put it under hps, and it greens right up immediately. I've tried all different heights. Right now I have them around 20 inches. Recently a couple started coming around and greening up. I don't really know why. I made a post on page 8.

How far away do you keep the lights?
I keep my RW150s between 18-20 inches. cal mag plus+ more of it! could be ph alittle. let it go 5.6 then 6.0 couple times then back5.6.

HMM a 10 day stoppage cost us 20 billion USD. Seems like it would be cheaper to build a competitive (non union) port and let them slug it out with each other. Let the cheapest shipping traffic go to the lowest bidder and the more time sensitive traffic go to the higher cost, lower traffic ports. Maybe then we will end up with something sustainable at least. (I am sure it is more complicated than that but it probably doesnt need to be).

From USAToday.com: "Not affected by the West Coast labor disruptions are seaports in Canada, Mexico and along the U.S. Gulf Coast. Those could provide alternative delivery points, but the water route from Asia would take longer."
