Feliz 250 Watt CFL Grow Light 2700K Review
Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I have used this lamp for supplemental greenhouse lighting as well as indoor gardening. It works incredibly well for both and it's more efficient in the red spectrum than HPS so although the lumen rating is similar it's more efficient on the reds which give you the results you can see. Even when using it as supplemental lighting in the full sun it adds a dose of red that makes an indisputable difference.

Daisy Clone 8 from Botanicare Review
Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)best cloner iv ever used. i keep a small indoor herb and vegetable selection during the winter months. with cloning, i had roots in 4 days. now its sitting on my counter growing fresh mint and basil aeroponically. i used the cartridges from the aerogarden fresh herb kit and they worked fine. it could be a little quieter i guess, but thats only because its on my counter and i notice it. i placed a small tank heating pad on the bottom and it keeps the water around 75 which helped a lot since i keep the kitchen cooler at night.

HydroFarm 2 ft. Fluorescent Grow Light Fixture Review
Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)This product is *only* for use with F18T8 (18 W) or F20T12 (20 W) bulbs. The former are hard to find, the latter exist but not in all varieties (plant grow lights, etc). I found the product info listed to be misleading in this respect. Otherwise the fixture is simple and rugged.

100 Count- Jiffy 7 Peat Soil Pellets Seeds Starting Plugs: Indoor Seed Starter- Start Planting Indoors for Transplanting to Garden or Planter Pot Review
Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I have been starting seeds indoors for years. The Jiffy Peat Soil Pellet starting plugs have got to be the best invention ever. All you do is soak the pellets until they swell and then pull back the netting slightly and insert your seed. I have had the best results with these little miracles then any other method around. Just let your seeds grown in these until you are ready to plant, it's as if you bought a six pack from the nursery for only pennies instead of dollars.

Root Riot RTRTTRY50 Organic Plant Starter Cubes, 50 Cubes Review
Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)The root riot plugs are great the item has no humidity dome wich was unfortunate. I had to go buy a dome and it bearly fits and have to mist my cuttings 3 times a day. The clonex Gel is amazing stuff. But got the same results with powder hormone. The plugs and gel get a 5 star rating but the fact that there is no dome made it 3 stars

Jiffy 5131 Strips 'N Tray 32-Plant Seed Starter Review
Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)My experience with this product so far has not been ideal. I bought this at a home improvement store and it did come with a plastic cover (hydrodome)unlike this particular version. However, I would recomend not having one of those lids with this product because of the following concern. If the peat pots are packed into the bottom plastic part as designed they grow blue mold all over the pots because the peat pots + moisture + no air circulation is a great recipe for mold. It does not seem that this mold is interfering with the plant growing at all, but for people who are allergic to mold this is not ideal. I took the pots out of the tray, turned the tray upside down, set the pots on top of it and ran a fan on them and the mold went away. It returns whenever the pots are wet. The second concern I have is the pots suck all of the water out of the soil. I guess the positive side of this is you never have to worry that your plants are going to damp off because it doesn't stay wet enough, but on the flip side watering twice a day to keep the soil from being bone dry is a little much. Also, just a note: when planting the peat pots make sure to cut off the top part of the pot and bury the pot below the soils surface or the plants will dry out and die. Also, it might be a good idea to cut vertically down the pots at planting to prevent the plants from becoming root bound since the pots don't decompose as fast as advertised. The one advantage to these pots is that I will be able to start plants indoors that are hard to transplant, that is if I can keep them alive through their constant drought and mold issues.

Clonex CLO100 Rooting Compound Gel, 100ML Review
Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)Recommended to me for a specific purpose by a professional nurseryman. It adheres to the cutting base so you know when it's in dirt there is some there. It worked better than another powdered product I've used for years. The two images I supplied shows a special tomato sucker, the parent was a 7.18# tomato... and worth making more than one plant. In 10 days I had a new plant, fastest rooting I've seen for this type of propagation. I'm trying it with other plant cuttings, so far it is doing much better than anything else I've tried. It seems pricy but the 100 ml bottle will go a long ways. Strongly recommend despite the price.

Jiffy 5718 Professional Greenhouse 50-Plant Starter Kit Review
Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I bought the Jiffy 72-plant starter from Walmart at a very low price. It consists of a thin black plastic tray, a transparent plastic cover and another piece of thin black plastic sheet with holes for the peat pellets. The peat pellets are included too. All one has to do is to add water and wait for the peat to expand. (The pellets have fabric wrappings around them to keep them in the right shape, although one of them is broken and the peat overflows into a shapeless mess.) Then seeds can be planted in them. The cover goes on to keep the moisture in. It is important to take the cover off as soon as the seeds sprout roots or stems, for fungus may grow otherwise.
Overall, the whole thing is very cheaply made, but it does work and the (Walmart) price cannot be beat. I have two other starter sets from Gardeners.com. They are made of equally flimsy plastic but in a more sophisticated design (similar to Burpee Ultimate Seed Starting System) with Styrofoam holders that allow the use of ordinary potting soil, which has better resistance against fungus than a bag of peat. They cost 4 times as much, however, and hold only 1/3 as many seedlings. For budget seed growing, Jiffy remains the best bet.

Compact Fluorescent 125W Day Grow Light System w/ Dew Guard Review
Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)VERY bright, good sturdy construction (other than noted below), easy to assemble and plants respond very well.
My only complaint is that the bulb is a minor defect with the bulb itself. It has some "play/movement". It doesn't seem seated well in it's base, but it's a minor issue since it still works well. I didn't think it worth returning the unit over since it still operates great.
Didn't come with hanging chains. Had to improvise that.

Hydrofarm CK64050 Germination Station with Heat Mat Review
Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)This item is essentially a plastic base and clear top (very flimsy) with a heating pad that the base sits on. It's adequate for starting plants from seed, but my main complaint is that for what you get, it's way too expensive. I believe a fair price for this item would be around $20, NOT $40. If you do decide to purchase a germination station like this one, buy the one with the taller top - it doesn't take long before the new plants start running into the 2" tall lid.
