is there any real difference with PH pens between the £5 ones and the £90 ones? Gotta buy a whole setup for a mate n dont see the point of paying over the odds if no need etc

Aye I know they do m8, if buying a lot of stuff u can work them tho, plus it's about the only one in 50-60 miles ffs. Can also pick stuff up at there warehouse at any time all boxed and all so ur not walking outta ther shop
thats not too sad then, but im shore you spent a fair few quid in there over the years? 55 compared to 40 bit of pisstake but if its the only shop for miles they can charge it and get away with it no doubt, lots of growers dont like ordering stuff online.

I used to buy cheap ones initially from China through EBay but I used two at a time because I didn't trust them. Then I had Adwa which seemed better but also weren't that reliable, then Essentials which was very basic but worked ok and now Blue Lab and I won't switch back. You get what you pay for. :)

I bought my whole kit from there, pretty much at once. But I priced it all on eBay and haggle with them thru emails for ages lol, they said they obviously couldn't compete with eBay but done me a good discount, was good being able to go up at about 7am on a Sunday morning to pick it all up at the warehouse. 2 big 9 pot Wilma systems, 3 lights, 1m carbon filter, 1 metre fan........kinda a lot a big stuff I didn't want to go thru the post like lol

The neighbours around here aren't too para. These guys have been growing these pots for a while. I thought they were AF's originally but they are going on too long now.

What I wanna know is, why is he using black pots instead of white? Why have AC indoors and do that on the windowsill? The guy hasn't even got a balcony. So much for the new visibility law! Lol
