We're tidying up and rearranging, getting some new displays and some new product lines like Aptus, and some new equipment like double-ended HPS lamps and reflectors. Things have been busy busy busy here at GreenTree. To see pictures of our retail reconfiguration, check out this album on Facebook.
Last week, we brought in the full line of Aptus bloom/grow boosters. You will still need to use a base nutrient like GH 3-part or Flora...
Look what just arrived in the warehouse...
We might be the only shop in the area to have the Deluge inserts in stock, and we only have one pallet at the moment, so if you need some, get 'em now. Plus, our new supplier gave us a great deal, and we're passing that savings on to you.
The STG Deluge is specifically designed for use in the CAP Ebb and Gro System as well as all other hydroponic systems employing an 8" x 8" 2 gallon bucket or net pot.

We just love our interesting customers' interesting projects.
Here's a fodder and aquaponics system that one customer was kind enough to share with us:
He's growing fodder for his chickens in a hydroponic system. When the plants get to this point, the roots mat together and he can throw the whole thing to his chickens, who dig right in. He said that eating this made his chicken's egg yolks a beautiful color all winter long.
