Nice!......

It's hard to say when you'll need something close by to grab or scrape something small. I got mine here: Jewelers Tweezers - Kingsley North, not local though. I have the Grobet USA Slide Locking Tweezers. This place has all sorts of nifty small items, like clamps, loupes, and torches. Oh yeah, in the same vein - scissors, a must have. Ah, Pliers too! Too many items that make life easier to list. Already thought of another, the handy Dremel Tool.

I agree. I use the long ones(10", straight tip and curved tip) that people use to feed reptiles and stuff. They are great for pulling out bit of dead plants and things like that. Dead handy, I use them all the time.

KIS brand CRYSTAL clear storage boxes and inexpensive! I'm never using a rubbermade or sterilite box again. They are as clear as glass. Everything from dry goods storage to transport, grow out, morphing, Temporary, Q-Tine,ect ect.

Nice locking lid to keep humidity up but allow a tiny bit of air exchange. Some FF....mainly Hydei will escape but that is to be expected with any tote.

They can be found at your local K-Mart.

Just picked up this little guy...

Want to add oatmeal or some other item to your current FF mix and you still want a powdery consistancy so your mags can slurp unimpeded by large chunks? Look no further...It works GREAT

Mine is the awesome array of CF light bulbs now found in the flood/security lighting section of Home Depot. They range from 27 to 100 watts and are all 6500K. Great for plants and really cheap......

Tony...purely coincidence, I'm ashamed to say. For some reason the ' wal doesn't carry them. Can you believe that?....I buy way too much stuff from the devil...thats for sure.

Got my 48" 2 bulb fixtures, assembled with ballasts for $9.00 each !!!

I bought twenty...

....going to buy broms there too......now I really hate myself for being such a sell out.
