Exactly my reaction! Knowing my luck, it was probably not converted right from GBP's. I looked at the links above for GrowSmartHydro and they are out of their mind with those prices.
For me and hydro, that would be a big NO. It contains organic ingredients like coir and earthworm castings. I dint want anything that will contaminate my tanks. But that is me. I have already fought my battles with slime when trying to run some GH Flora Nectar. Really jacked stuff up for me. Took lots of flushing and H2O2 to get things back to normal. I am currently only Rockwell and hydroton, until the fytocell becomes available.
Looks like a good mix though.
dankhoe i just wanted to let you know i got so fed up with trying to find another medium that i called green technology. they said i can order from mexico right now. this is the website he gave me
http://greentechnologies.gostorego.com/
the only catch is at first he said i need to wait another week to order because the paypal isnt set up or something and then at the end of the convo he said he will call me back tomorrow and take an order for me. looks like were in business.
Went to the Mexico website to order. Shipping is ridiculous at the moment. 2 - 20liter bags at a cost $20.00US, costs $46.41 to ship. Might bite for the shipping just to get a couple of bags in.
Curious to see what Al B is paying in Austr.
This stuff sure is cheap though. I hope the pricing is close to what is listed now. $10.00 per 20 liter bag. $30.00 per 100 liter bag. Amazing
To anyone else interested, please know that there are two versions of this stuff. Hydroflakes, which is intended for soil mix, and Hydroflakes PLUS, which was developed for soil-less mediums.
Response from Green Technologies about Hydroflakes+:
I can guarantee that orders within the USA will be available before 2012. We look forward to serving you in the very near future.
I can let you know as soon as the online store is up and running. If you need additional information in the meantime, please don´t hesitate to contact me via e-mail or at (713) 447 7072.

I hope they work for you. I tried the grow bags once and ended up having to cut the bottom open to let roots expand. Plus, I could never get my runoff balanced. Just wasn't my thing. The dry pack is a novel concept though.
