I've had good service from them as well, I like the two way ballasts by Sunleaves they carry, good price at barely $150.

They have the only grow shop in my state, so I've been using them for many moons!
Anything you want, most likely they have.

I love that place for all of my low cost needs, like fertilizer, water adjustments, such as PH up/down, wormcastings. But their lighting systems cost a little too much, so I go elsewhere for that. But they have everything else under the sun that I need at a good price. Sit I go just to talk to the workers, as most love to grow plants as well(Not MJ related), but like peppers, tomatoes, and house plants and such. Also very helpful and knowledgeable.

I make it unanimous. Worm's Way has a great catalog and website. We've ordered a few times and all OK. I also recommend Gold Coast Hydroponics in Florida for fast reliable service.

Yours,

....my 430 HPS ($350 US) has been operating 12/12 continuously for over three years now. In my estimation, it has saved me more than $50,000 in pot. What more can I say?

I live close to the Massachusetts Worm's Way. I get all of my grow necessities there. The prices are great!!! I do think that their HID systems are way too over priced though!!! I paid almost $200 less for my HPS of the same wattage and quality than what the WW wanted. Other than that, the prices for their nutes and organic soils are wonderful.... But like someone earlier stated, it's Massachusetts only hydro store (at least to my knowledge), so we have to pay their prices if we want good grow supplies :rolleyes:.

REAL DISCRETE casual daywear for the contemporary and discrening mj growa fer shure dewdz.
..... if ya ask nicely, they will look around and see if they still stock sulfer vaporizers for powdery mildew and pest control. and they MIGHTdecide to over ride corporate policy and find ya some greenline brand 3/4" 125psi flexible hose, which they are authorized to carry and to sell, if ya can get someone to do the leg and phone work. but thas cuz they want yas to buy a massively INFERIOR PRODUCT cuz they got a lot of it and it's in their corporate stats sheet. how do i know all this ya ask????? i be best buddi's/ex-project partners w/a guy that owns 2 hydro stores right now, and is in the process of opening two more in the near future. he's at his wits end having to deal w/their wholesaler, burlington.

I am FAR from a newbie grower and security is a MAJOR issue considering I live in the states. I somehow take offense to both blastings that you have given this company, only because you have obviously never done business with them and it comes off like you're trying to say I don't know much. Unfortunately the laws in the U.S. are insane, so for the company to just go about their business without all of the "innuendo's" that go along with the lowprofile advertising that catches the mj grower's eye, you'll have to look past it. It's called keeping "low profile", for security issues. Why go out of the way to look inconspicuous if you are not doing anything wrong...?

You kept alluding to the fact that it's an ok place to go if you are a newbie grower....? They carry the same friggin' products as 75% of other hydro shops do!!!! I do agree that soem of their lighting systems are way over priced though. You act like the people that work there are clueless simply because they don't have to imply that they know what 90% of the public REALLY goes in there for. I'm not trying to act like I have personal stock in the place or anything like that, but you're kinda' long winded about a place you know nothing about. After a few purchases and some conversations with the staff, I can safely say that they are qualified to grow.

I just really didn't appreciate your assumptions about certain things you brought up and I had to say it. This is only my 3rd or 4th post and after each one so far, I have had someone basically tell me that my opinion is wrong and assume that I'm a new grower. Not feeling too good about posting anymore....:rolleyes:.

Speaking of their magazines, their new one should be out this week. Damn I get about every hydro mag there is in the mail, lol. If the mailman likes them, I guess I wouldn't get them. But then again, everyone knows I grow shit like peppers, flowers, tomatoes, I just like gardening. So I guess I'm not too paranoid about that. Shit most mail people wouldn't even put that together. When I worked for a mail courier, the one thing I noticed was lady bugs. If I ran into a mist of them, and I mean a big fukkin mist of them, and there was no crops around, then my brain would say, wonder what's growing around here. But that's only because I grow. I also delivered lights as well on ocassions, but for the most part, I always assumed it was for growing things such as peppers and shit. Remember, there are 10 times as many people growing herbs, fruits, veggies, flowers, than there is growing cannabis. So it's normal to think that they are growing those and not cannabis. Will I stop the mags coming, hell no, I love reading them.

I will state again, everyone at my local wormsway is very knowledgeable about their products, and about growing. I love talking to them, sharing different ideas about what would be best, or simply how to do it yourself things. Most have gardens indoors as well, not the cannabis kind, but who knows, lol. But the one thing I can say, there's a few there I call friends, and call them up on the tele from time 2 time.

..... YOU ENTITLED TO YER OPINIONS AND I'M entitled to mine. i make no specific assumptions about you , your tastes in what's safe for you, how long you been growing or any other silly inane paranoid bullshit youy accuse me of directing specificly at you. \
.....feck dewd, i could give a rat's ass about yer feelings, or your paranoid delusions that i spent the whole night in my grow rm working and plotting how i was gonna tear into you ass in this thread, simply because you expressed an opinion different than mine. at this point, i think you've shown us what a mature merry prankster you rweally are.. and if my post freaks you sooo much that you may not post here anymore, well dewd, thas your loss, not mine, nor the communitie's at large:rolleyes:
...... i never ever anywhere directed any this po boi "whoa is me" crap at you sorri paranoid ass by any meager stretch of yer imagination. you prolly the best most experienced growa in all new england
...... i really don't know why you think you soooo special, that i'd go out my way after working my garden all night long just so's i could come back on me pc during a flushing thingie, to start up shit w/you about some silly ass hydro store????? lol, don't think youself so special. te fecking hee!!!!!;)
... oh, i already sed that b4 above huh, lol!!!!!
..... as far as you thinking i think of you as a newbie, lol, yer acting like one right now. cuz, if you aren't in the real canna world, you must be on the net. cuz thas the way i post mp, always have, always will.
... if you'da EVER seen ANY of my posts b4, you'd never take offense to anything i ever say, ....., unless you were guilty of some strange bullshit that needed to be addressed tout suite.
..... but why should i have to explain myself to you or anyone else, but you seem to be only one taking any offense. hell, there's NOTHING WRONG W/BEING A NEWBIE. thas why some of us are here, to help the newbies. i was a newbie once, i'm still a newbie w/regards to refining a grow technique indoors that taken me since early 80's to just get my feet wet, as it t'were. lol, ask greenja, i only humble student, but i can, and DO TRY HELP peep as i see fit.
..... dewd, i STILL get stuff from worm's way, when i'm in a pinch, and need something "yesterday". i not happy, i use them as avenue of last resort when others are out locally, or w/in a 5 state area. feck, i used to drive TO INDIANA STORE 5,6 TYMES A YEAR BACK IN MID NINETIES for stuff i didnt want sent to my safe addy, multiple lights and ebb n flo tables, MULTIPLE BOTTLES OF gh NUTES, BULBS, YOU NAME IT. A FEW US PUT OUR CASH TOGETHER AND CONSOLIDATED THE BUYING SPREE, and then tour the local college bar scene trolling for keepers. lol, we all stuck out like sore thumbs, we was almost old enuff back then to be those lil corn fed co-eds daddies. lol!!!!!
..... man, we drove to new earth in louisville during derby week, made a party outta it again.hell dewd, mp er whatever, thas what ya used to have to do , was even worse in the early eighties.
..... seiously, i could give a flying philadelphia feck, that you think again, you sooooo special that i singled you out, or that my ulterior motive w/this post was to totally dis you, or anyone but newbies for using worm's way. thas pretty fecking shallow my man, pretty shallow.
..... so, if nothing else, and no one else needs consoling for any reputed "verbal spanking" i may have inadvertantly dealt out this morning, or ruffled their tailfeathers, or twisted their pantyhose into lil knots, i do hope you reconsider mp, as i sed b4, it'll be yer loss, not ours, if that's the way you gonna react to someone pulling yer chain, presuming i was INTENTIONALY trying to accomplish that, then good luck w/yer grows in mass, i'm sure you fill a void that would be sorely missed if you weren't a whiz -on growa.
..... tehee, i hope the links i posted helped SOMEBODY, really...:p

Amusing thread. First off, if you are growing cannabis, rule one, don't have it shipped to your grow address anyways. If you visit the store, don't use a car/truck that has your tags registered as the same as the grow address.
Most lights are shipped thru UPS or FDX in the states and not through your mailman, and if you think they don't know what is in the box, even if it's not marked, think again, lol. But most could care a less, as they are looking for good shit to steal, what are they going to do with lights, when their truck is loaded with computers, nike's, and other good shit. To think they don't steal, I have visited many of hubs for the 2nd highest delivery company in the world, and can tell you, 60% of the employees steal, it's hard to prove, but if you look at their sheets, you see many things that never got delivered, the hard part is proving it, since only a small percentage ever gets scanned entering the hubs, and are color coded anyway to let you know if it's been scanned or not. And if it wasn't scanned on your truck, this just complicates things even more. Damn, I'm pretty lit right now, and am way off topic, Sorry!LOL!
As a driver, a owner, a manager, a security monitor, you know what's on the truck, plus you make pickups from the companies, lol.
It's good to be paranoid, but if they are already on to you, it's probably too late anyway, and you were probably narced out by a friend, not the delivery guy, or the hydro store or the mailman.
Again, sorry to get off topic, wormsway is for everyone, newbies, long term growers, anyone that has the urge to grow, and make their own beer, lol. I'm sorry to hear that the customer service at your wormsway sucks, but the one I go to, most could grow circles around most growers on these cannabis sites. I also love looking at all of their hydro stuff going, as they have at least 5 different units going at all times of the year indoors.
The one thing they have never done, is try to push a product on me, except for wormshit, and it truly does help, but I already knew that, lol.
Bye 4 now, I've rambled on enough, time to drive the misses nuts with my unstoppable chatter, lol.

>>>More chatter, FDX did have a nice delivery of schwag about 5 years ago. Most small trucks can bypass the chicken coupes, but you get the idea, but they had a sting, and nailed most everybody involved. Which was really sad imo.

Remember, these forums are for entertainment and educational purposes.

Peace and respect each others right to free speech...

I appreciate the perspective you are putting out there, but certain people are just smacked asses. Enthusiastic and street-articulate are completely different than longwinded, self righteous, self absorbed, obnoxious, and down right smug. I am secure about my abilities to keep my grows under tight wraps. I personally don't have to go through the whole "cloak and dagger " routine to get my grow supplies. I have a life and a career, so certain people should learn to bite their tongues when rambling like a drunken prom date trying to prove a ridiculous point. I don't sit around all day watching my grows like some people.

I have read many things in here I think are a fuckin' waste of bandwith, but I can't tell someone that their OPINION is wrong. I respect other's opinion's, even if I think it's wrong, it's not my place to say.

The fact the he tried to use the old "I didn't directly implicate anyone" bullshit, should have shown me what kind of juvenile I was dealing with.


I can "tolerate" many things, but some people just need a boot to the face. I'm not usually this verbally agressive, but my intial 2 posts were immediately scrutinized, so I'm a little on guard. Peace.......

You should really get a clue before coming to someone's defense dummy...... My comment about having a life and a career has absolutely NOTHING to do with the safety/security of my grows. If you had a braincell in your head, you would be able to comprehend what that comment really meant. I was trying to tell him to get a life and stop sitting around the house all day watching his plants grow.......dummy. You obviously don't catch onto subtleties too quick. Don't come to a gunfight with a knife....know what I mean genious....?

HyGrade...:Let's not forget how all of this started. I posted my opinion as to why I think the Worm's Way is a good place, and you came up with a 15 paragraph manifesto as to why it sucks and is for beginner's, in sparate forums. You openly attacked my OPINION twice..... and I'm not supposed to say something...? Or are you used to not having anyone say something to ya' BIG guy...? It's not my fault you can't express yourself clearly.

So, no matter what you babble about, I'm convinced you just like to hear yourself talk. Was the problem that I actually said something to you about YOUR agressive and assumption riddled post...? I had no hostility until you chimed in....dick. I'm glad to see you have some followers. Must be nice having your nuts and ego stroked by the weaker members here. Little feck you say...? Hahahahahahahahaha...... We should meet someday and discuss grow issues.....;).


P.S.... YOU are the ONLY person I have had a problem with, so don't make it seem like I do this with all my posts.....dick.

..... as far as you and me meeting up, lol, that'd be a real kick, but as far as discussing growing w/u, dewd, i hardly think we'd be on the same page...:p

You are clueless.... if we ever met.....I'd be kicking you sorry little ass pussy.......That's what I meant by "getting together to discuss grow stuff". Your a fuckin mindless bumble fuck. I took offense to your implications DUMMY, because you bashed BOTH of my posts about this topic. So fuck off.

I highly doubt that your tea bagging boyfriend grows on a big scale... The simple fact that you had to throw that little tid bit of ridiculous info has me guessing you are a kid. The fact is you were being a dick and I said something. How do you know that I'm not a commercial grower with 20 years of growing to back me up...? dick.......

I will be banned soon because your other boyfriend Dutchgrown is too stupid to see that YOU have started this shit with me and had the balls to warn me as if i was the initial instigator. So, I told him to get fucked. You must give good blow jobs, because favortism is definitely on your side. I bet you swallow, don't ya' sweetie. :mad:

P.S...: Get an education boy.... Words like "mo" and peeps" are dead give aways that you are a moron..... and a kid. Also, I would like to see some of your grows, I doubt you have any punk.....

I started this thread to help people that have a hard time finding products in their area.It is not just for newbies,but for everyone who needs help locating QUALITY products!This has turned into a fuckfest,and for what reason ,,,to say I have the biggest dick in the land.I'm the smartest grower on this forum.I know it all.PLEASE can't we just get along!

This is a good company that has always treated me with respect .The store I deal with has very knowledgable staff and always their to help.They have never made me feel funny or have they sent anything out of the ordinary in the mail.I don't buy my lights from them,and if I did ,I would pretty much expect it to come in a box from the light company.They are one of the biggest retailer and wholesalers in the U.S.They probably send out many ,many lights daily. Yes other hydro stores order from Worm's Way,so they can't be that bad.

Don't be discouraged from Worm's Way by the negative post in this thread,,try them out and see for yourself.

I will say that they have stopped doing COD for new customers,because of so many orders not being picked up.They still send to regular customers with no problems.I would think that after a few orders ,you could be put on the COD list.

I understand people not wanting certain packages coming to their house.You should find a safe delivery ADDY to solve this problem.

If your a grower then you probably enjoy it enough to grow some of your own produce(veggies).If your a gardner(the legal kind) you shouldn't have any worries anyway.

I personally grow many veggies and a few flowers to boot!!

:) :D ;) Can you say Papaver Somniferum:D :p Such a beautiful flower:D :cool: Take care.......................... CC

Thanks for the post Cap'n

Your are right on in so much as it is a good place to shop they have most of the stuff right there which you can look at and handle and think about in way you can't on the net. Now that we have so many forums to discuss products, methods and stealth, there are so many ways to learn.

You make a good point about gardening. Cannabis is another great plant to grow along with a lot of pretty and good tasting stuff.

Maybe I am an idiot but I don't worry about it. If I need stuff I call'em and the UPS guy brings it over. If I am by thier shop and need somethin' hell I'll pull right in.

I am a farmer who grows everything he can get his hands on.

thanks for keeping it sane

Flowerman,I haven't started a thread on the current grow.I have thought about it but haven't learned to load photo's into the threads.It's easy at the other sites,but I haven't taken the time s of yet.Several good people have told me how,but I'm pretty computer illiterate!Just kinda feel my way through things,the wife trys to explain shit and just confuses me more.Have 13 strains in present grow plus a few singles and doubles that I don't really consider growing out.1 or 2 plants is not enough of a selection to call growing the strain in my opinion.
just now on their 2nd day of flower,will be posting pics all the way through.Take care.................CC

Foe your info the Dutchgrown on this forum happens to be a women!And a rather cool one at that!
I take your comments towards her as an insult,she has been one of the nicest people I have had the pleasure of talking to on this or any other forum!So if the comments are towards her ,would you kindly delete them in the name of keeping the peace here on this forum!........................ .............................. .......:mad: :confused:

One other thing ,for the record ,those fellas just talk that way,go look in the krusty bucket thread!Just because that man talks funny certainly doesn't imply that he's a kid ,maybe just a kid at heart!!!:) That's just the way they do it !

the only thing that kinda annoys me is that she chooses to uses the honorable Tommy Chong as her avatar...Tommy is currently doing time for his legal business supporting our favorite plant...
do you know who Tommy Chong is mwankster?? or were you still busy working on your playground social skills...

i use wormsway because they are only hydro shop within 100miles...i buy my GH nutes and my starter pellets there bout 2x yearly...i find most of there stuff to be overpriced and overhyped...
isnt that what this thread started about??

im sure the merrywankster's response will be more rants and threats...just dont kick your dog or talk back to your parents...wouldn't want to get grounded...we're here to listen...

I ordered a bunch of stuff from them and then they opened a store near me.Cool.They have some items that are better priced than the other hydro store in town,which is a pain to get to.They carry items that the other place doesn't.They have a cool logo.I could care less about how much their employees know about growing.Isn't that what this myriad of cannabis forums is for?Who has all this time for name calling and boots to the face?I thought most of us were adults?Jeez.Go smoke a phat one and enjoy your hobby,ey?I just think it's a blessing that a hydro store popped up within a 10 minute drive of my house,so when I am changing my tanks out and run out of one of the nutes,I can just hop in the car and grab what I need and be back home in half an hour.I do wish they hadn't replaced the pure Fulvic Acid that they carried wth something I'm not familiar with.For that,I guess I'll have to order online from somebody else.And yes,have it sent to my house,which is in the regular path of of the local gendarmes helicopter path.But who cares,I grow indoors.Peace,BigPapa

I have used worm's way for both of my grows and found their nutes and soil to be top notch, but things like lights, fans, co2 kits, hydro setups and the like are definitely more expensive....just an example: I saw an inline fan at worms way for $45, home depot had the same exact fan for $22...but that's the mark-up...as far as knowledgable sales staff goes...i found that half the people have a clue, the other half don't...it's just a matter of finding out who knows most...just my 2c

BigPapa
03-22-2004, 06:09 PM
I hear ya,man.I told them that I bought 2 of those fans for less than they wanted for 1.Same goes for that wonderful Intermatic digital 14 program timer they have.Their explanation made sense,sort of.While Home Depot probably gets 100 pallets a year of that item,they don't even get 1.I said"Well,okay,maybe you should consider getting them at Home Depot." I know that the individual stores probably can't do that,cuz they'd catch he!! from Corporate HQ for doing that.Just glad I'm a smart shopper:)

St. T is right.

Let's try to be a little bit more productive here. I have never puchased anything through Worm's Way, but your thoughts are all received and will be taken into account if I ever decide to do so. We all have oppinions. Some are right, some are wrong, but that's a matter of perspective. If you feel strongly enough about something and just have to say something unconstructive, fine, do it. Just use your PM's, so that the rest of us can surf here in the spirit of peace and harmony. Let's help each other become more efficient growers and better people through this hobby of ours. I say we all smoke a joint and chill out.

Hey All,

Can anyone comment on there shipping methods? I'm going to order some sunleaves guano and some EWC. I'm hoping they just throw the stuff in a plain cardboard box and ship it? Or do they use fancy boxes with "Worms Way" and "hydroponics" printed all over it?

Thanks and Peace

When I've ordered stuff through them it's been in Worm's Way branded boxes, or once the box that the item came in, which said what it was on the side.

Not real inconspicuous.

You will probably get the brown box with WormsWay printed on the return label, not more.
However, for those ordering lights and such, I got my ballast and bulb in the main box with ferts. and sundry items, but the reflector came in the manufacturer's box stating clearly (with pics and all the bells and whistles) what it was.

By itself it's not necessarily a bad thing, but be forewarned about it. Thousands and thousands of people obviously grow much in their houses (orchids, vegetables, etc.) so it's not completely out of the ordinary and it's only getting more and more common. But it is, at its essence, a breach of YOUR security even as it may not raise anyone's eyebrows from the purchase.

Just be forewarned. Ferts. and other sundry stuff I can't imagine being a problem, but lights and bigger items (I was debating carbon scrubbers, but I'm not going to subject myself to tic-tac-toe for the Post office and so on) caveat emptor. Your security is far more valuable (as is your privacy) than a good deal or an easy, quick fix for supplies.

Good luck.

They are scouting you...for sure! Not to cause panic amongst the community, just words of cautions. Use your head while shopping WW....please! Look, dress, speak......act the part people. Think Clark Kent/Superman......when you are in person, play that Clark Kent role to a tee. Please...use the head that you seek to enlighten. No joke, no joke, no joke.

He's referring the Operation Green Merchant, circa 1988. You can Google it. It was an unfortunate event that involved many different hydroponics retailers, but somehow Worm's Way was the retailer that got tagged with the stigma over the years.

The folks who run WW are good people and are NOT cooperating with the feds.

When you order regular/smaller products from WW, they come in a plain brown cardboard box and the regular white postal label says Worm's Way on it. Nothing about gardening.

OK, first off. Worm's Way is a great place. No, they are not scouting you out. What nate is saying. Don't look like a pothead and don't ask any question about growing anything illegal. This is a big mistake and they have the right to ask you to leave their store. I'm not going to go into any details, but they "DO NOT" share "Any" info with LEO. Unless they have a warrant, then they have no choice. One thing you should anyways do if ordering online or through the mail. Ship to a safe location, not to the grow site. What i "Liked" to do in the past was two things. One, i rented a PO Box a couple towns away. This would let me get stuff shipped there. I could then pick it up and make sure no one followed me back to the grow. I would use the tracking number to know when package was going to be at my PO box. Second, I had a mailbox etc place lined up with a friend. They would call me on a throw away cell phone. They would call me when a box would show up. Then i would drive over to the next town and pickup box or boxes. Again, watching to make sure no one followed me.

Worm's Way is a great place. I've ordered from them over the years. I would hate for someone to tag them as a place not to shop. I"ve also ordered from Discount, Altgarden, BGHydro, and a few others. Just make sure you do it as safely as possible. That is just my 2-cents on this issue. Take care and stay safe everyone.

Thatls pro advice. I personally have not had a problem with the worm, and even though it's a bit expensive with somethings, they do have reasonable prices on other stuff. It's an indispensible place for stuff like FF chunky perlite for me....

Usually when you go, just make sure there aren't any caprice's parked out front, and that nobody trails you home. Go run some errands after, not back to the site.

Hey cannigrow,

Just trying to help out if i can. One thing that i think people also forget. You don't have to be followed from a store. One easy thing they like to do. Is get your plate number and cross reference it to you. They will look to see if the owner of the vehicle has had any charges or anything pending. Then they will scout out the address to the vehicle that was leaving the store. They aren't dumb, but then again. They aren't to smart. I try to order online. There is allot less chance of any issues. Don't get me wrong. I love walking around the stores looking at everything, but then. I spend to much money walking around also,lolol. Shipping to a safe place is about the safest way. Unless a store is handing over info. There is no way for LEO to know you are getting grow gear or are growing. Pay by money order and ship to a place no in your town. Follow these rules and you should be good. Break the rules and you end up in trouble and paying for a good lawyer. I hope this helps. Just some of the thing i use to do to stay some what safe.
Happy 4th,
BG

Worms Way is a great place to purchase needed supplies, don't get me wrong. Anything I share with the community is to help...that is all. No, I'm not referring to Operation Green Merchant, but thank you for speaking for me. Please don't think WW employees are just hired help, in my experience....their more than that. These folks have a serious love of gardening that we all share, and handle themselves accordingly. Shop where you like, and how you like. Just use discretion, and common sense.

"Don't look like a pothead." Tis stereotypes such as this that stagnate and oppress our fight for legalization of the great herb.

Hey Alien-nate,

Your right and i should have worded that better. Just meant to say. Don't go in asking about cannabis or acting funny. Was more along the lines of saying. Don't draw attention to yourself in the store. Didn't mean to stereotype anyone or be unkind to anyone. That's the last thing i would want to do. I'm all about trying to be a kinder person these days. Again, didn't mean to say the wrong thing.
Take care,
