whats the story with hydroshop and psycho products

[F420]

I use the silicamajic. I first tired other brands but yea they were piss weak and cost the same.

 

I strongly suggest that the last 2 week or even the last week is plain water and the finish agent.

 

But mate you do what works for you, noone else knows your system the way you do.

hello everyone, that hydroshop that you where talking about are actually one of my local ones they have 2 store close and one further inland abit that i havent been to. They want your details to make you there level 1 member (or whatever its called) and you recieve a discount everytime you buy something(i think its like 9%) , you can then pay to go up to the next level i think its a $50 memberfee/year to recieve like 25%off there stuff , theres also another member level after that thag gives you like 50% but you need to spend like $1500 everymonth in store (commercial guys deal).

 

They also give you advice but for the extra special tips you need to be a level 2 member (with member fee ). So they charge you to learn to grow what a ripoff.

NEED TO BE MENBER TO GET TIPS FROM THEM THEY WONT HELP YOU WITH ADVICE UNLESS YOUR INSTORE AND WILLING TO HAND OVER CASH AND IF YOU HAVE MORE MONEY THEY WILL RECOMMEND LIKE 6 DIFF ADDITIVES TO USE ALL AT ONCE (OVERLOAD) JUST CHASING DOLLARS THESE PEOPLE DONT TRUSTTHEM ! :thumbdown

 

I actually applied for a job there, full training andall bastards turn me down.

 

Oh that budponder chems they sell is the stuff they get made for there company and its shit, 9i have had 3 diff varieties using the stuff and all it did was stress them out fuckthat use another type like dutchfeast (i think thats what its called). :thumbdown

Discount/Bait.

 

I can't see a pro giving out their personal details, sounds like shit to me.

 

By the sounds of things, what you save with your discounts they get back in advice fees.

 

I say if they can offer discounts, you can haggle and if they don't like it, walk.

[skullface]

most of the details are for there postal service they do the rest is for your username for your free membership card to get ya 7% off.

They more then get there cash back by pushing additivesd that you dont need.

I dont use this company at all now i just go to the other shop in town and say " there got that at this price " and they usually do me a good deal , not always as cheap as hydroshop but they give me free chems and stuff to get price about same. PLus i trust the other shops advice so they get all my money.

[green cell]

what shits me is i bought there product from one of there agents and they denigh me thier info on how to use it.and no i dont think they will sell the persoanl info though they might.but they might get slopy with it fuck lets face it if we where cops where would we go look to find growers.if cops arnt investigating grow shops they should be.

if cops arnt investigating grow shops they should be.

 

There are plenty of other things cops could do with their time than harrass people who want to sit quietly and take a pain killer or have a few with their friends.

Just bringing back a thread cuz i thought the part about them wanting information is to me very intimidating to say the least. This in my experiences thoughout the industry of shifting MJ way back in my younger days we refered to such people as mull sharks as in the slightest smell of mull brings the whole pack and they don't want to put u in jail although thats what they will say they are there for in the majority of situations. In the rest of the encounters i have had with such people they dont say anything and are likely to break in and wake you up with a crowbar like they done to me and the people i lived with at the time. Basically not pleasant and dont think a safe will save your hard earned dealing or growing money because they may not know the code but you do and if you dont open the safe they will open your skull. The only thing you can really do in a run through situation when people are out to snatch your crops is make it plainly obvious that it is alot more hassle then its worth and usually they will bail (with luck) as the last thing they want to be doing is running from the police for murder instead of just hiding from u for robing u blind.

 

My Rules to surviving in the Dealing/Growing weed world and really any drug

 

1st Rule: Everything is always locked all your doors and any window that is openable to a point that allows entry. NEVER leave them unlocked and do not let people come as they please everyone knocks and everyone waits till the door is unlocked and opened for them. Simply because if they see people coming and going at will (you will get watched before being robbed unless junkies are involved) they will just literally walk in.

 

2nd Rule: At no point can you easily fill an order for MJ or Speed, LSD anything. Everything over a 1/4 ounce etc involves seeing a higher boss that is to everyone else untouchable and never revealed. In spite of the fact that you have 10 pound lying around.

 

3rd Rule: (Dealers) Never buy more than 2 pound at a time that is going to sit around. Always buy big amounts only if you have it sold and under no circumstances tick a pound or more that your not on the way to sell to someone. Because your supplier isn't always trustworthy either and if you owe him without the money to pay up he owns you until you have paid it back. In the mean time you'll have to tolerate being undercut on every deal.

 

3rd Rule: (Growers) Never supply someone in gambling debts or who has an obvious addiction to gambling. Never sell over an ounce to someone first deal and never carry large amounts on the first deal.

 

4th Rule: Spread ur cash out amongst houses and hiding spots inside houses because dirty money cannot be put into the bank in this day and age since u have to justify every cent that the govt finds out about.

 

5th Rule: Get a dog A BIG ONE and don't familiarise him with visitors being friendly. Any dog should bark its brains out at everyone (bar husky's and breeds which are physically incapable of barking) My suggestions German Shepherds (black tipped variety, predominantly black) They where breed by the nazi's with the perpose of killing humans, Malamutes/husky's have awesome strength but lack in killer instincts none the less are defensive of their turf, Pitbulls are awesome if only for the locking jaw which will always afford you the opportunity to bash thieves sensless before they make their escape, Rotwielers are perfect too for their size and there super defensive insicts over what really IT designates as its territory X breeds with Pit Bulls are xlnt. Last but not least and im sure there are a few i missed but the Bullmastive being origionally breed by the english for hunting Tigers are the shiznat due to unrivaled size and immense attachment to thier owner a bullmastive WILL die for you Great danes are similar. All these dogs at the least will deter would be robbers.

 

Finally if someone asks you for information like in the situation origionally discribed in this thread your best coarse of action is to find out as much about the person asking you as is possible and to make sure they see you walking around ALL the time. Make sure they know you think that the question was odd and put you on gaurd toward them. Find out as much as you can about the people that affiliate with them. Nobody will raid you unless they think its clean and that ur gonna be left either clueless or to scarred to take action. If they turn out to be a bikey or prominent local criminal your best bet is to dis associate yourself with them and don't atlk to them at all. Then you will need to drop information and bullshit to see where it pops up from who it pops up and where they say they got told. Simply u know whats information and whats bullshit and you know who you told what. This is really the only way you will find out who is informing your would be raiders and who REALLY can keep their mouths shut and be trusted.

 

Sorry to everyone for bringing a thread from the cobwebs its just i have seen alot of dealers and growers being raided these days and its the police less and less as time goes on. The police will not save us so i thought all the industry NOOBS better find out by reading this post rather than the way i have. Anyone who just passes this post off as paranioa will be posting something similar one day I garruntee it.

 

Farewell and i hope that saves someone from the sharks
