First of all thank you for viewing and trying to help. I'm really frustrated, and I'm sure somebody out there can help me. i was in the middle of building my first hydroponic closet when a friend suggested I watch the Mr. Green video. I took a lot of his tricks and applied them to what I was doing, but some of the things I liked most about his build I can't find ANYWHERE around here. I have tried Lowe's, Home Depot, LTD Farm and Garden, Tractor Supply, and even called a few nurseries. Nobody has any idea where to look, which makes me wonder WTF!... These are primo gardening centers! I mean some of these things seem to be parts you would expect to find at all of the gardening centers. Long story short this is what I'm looking for...

*The 1" nozzles with 1/2" o.d. used for draining.

*The Spider looking contraption that takes the 1/2" water input, and splits it to 6 or 8 separate lines with drippers on the ends.

*lol the cheap black plastic "Planter" (yea see this is something I new would be easy to find at ANY garden center...WRONG!) that he sat his Veg. plants in.

*The brands, and types of nutrients he uses. (I'm not in a big hurry for these, but it would be good to know ahead of time.)

I think I have everything else I need. I fear my pump is too big, but its the smallest I could find. 50-80 gallon per hour fountain pump, but I hope the dripper's will slow this down. Please Please Please, Try and see if you know a good place to find these items. If you find a place online, send me a link, If its a local shop, PM me a number, If its a big chain store, tell me a name. I desperately need help! Thanks Everybody!... I have my fingers AND TOES crossed, the toes hurt a little so hurry! just kidding =o)

Well to start, it would help if you said where you are from. Most of those items are sold in hydro shops or online. As for the nutes, if I remember right, it is just the GH 3 part. Nothing special in any of that video that can't be aquired at most good hydroponic stores although you can get them online probably cheaper.

GH 3???, Nutes??? Your losing me =o), but sir i assure you, I have looked at all my local stores (we don't have any hydroponic stores) I have looked online, I have looked for 2 days. I try to do things myself before I ask for help. So please sir, If you know what I'm trying to find, please help me. Thanks... p.s. what are gh 3's and nutes?

The spider contraption you can get from homedepot. But you might need a sediment filter where it want get clogged.

Those nozzles also at the hydro store.

Now when you say planter do you mean the growing tray. Your going to have to buy that at a hydro shop. there not cheap either.

I've seen a cement mixing trouph in the cement section at homedepot for your grow tray but it's not the same thing exactly.

The nutrients he is using is General Hydroponics

Man just search hydroponics it's not hard
The thing is that he is not growing that much for all the effort he is putting into it.
