Re: Cheap grow supplies
What's up guys...although I am pretty new at the grow game, I want to do my part to help contribute to the community. I am currently collecting parts and supplies for a kick-ass growbox on a seriously small budget. It seems everytime I get into something new I never have any money Anyway, I have found that THRIFT STORES are a goldmine! I know we don't like to frequent these establishments very often but you can find deals in THRIFT STORES that seriously TRUMP prices anywhere else. Of course this route is usually for the DIY'er. I did some window shopping at Goodwill, Salvation Army, etc...and here are some things I found.

Clamp reflector (great for CFL's) - $.0.37
Humdidifiers - $4.99 - 14.99
Small/medium fans - $4.99 - 9.99
Surge protector/power back-up $9.99
Flexible air-duct hosing - $1.50
tv cabinets/other furniture (great for already built structures to convert into your own stealth grow box) - $39.99 - 49.99

I have my eye on a large tv cabinet/entertainment center that I could convert and it would be awesome!

Hope this helps

Re: Cheap grow supplies
From what I see you can usually get HID bulbs for pretty cheap. It's the ballasts and the hood that get you. Best combo I've seen by far is InsideSun's Sylvania 400W MH bulb, ballast, and hood for $95.00...thats just my take. GL

Re: Cheap grow supplies
Stealitback has some INCREDIBLE prices!!!!!! Not sure if I'd be willing to buy "our" type of equiptment from the police though. I can only imagine what kind of information they keep in file. MAN they got some good prices though!!!!
