some of them do some dont, of course big name branders dont. I've been going for 4 years and every time theres something new last year secret jarden was big, stg products were cool a lot of water cooled lights, and i think last year they had this fucking huge storage container all souped up it was insane! Oh and bghydro always gives out free grow gear! Not no punk ass shit either! real gear my friend... like complet lighting systems, grow tents, all kinds of shit!
Glad to hear you guys will be attending. I will be wearing the SF giants batting practice hat with a giants t-shirt and green shorts. If you see me say what's up. Happy hunting today with all those freebies. Peace.
Edit: I have been to the last 4 hydro shows at Fort Mason and they keep getting better.

Just got back from the expo, shit was off the chain fa real! I won twice in the rafel "hell yeah" I won a 4x4 flood tabel with all the parts and pumps and a eco 1200 pump! And I came up on a fucking huge can fan carbon scruber! This expo is cool cuzz you can make deals with the makers them selfs for hella less then what you would normally pay. Heat air exchangers was fuckin sick! Like a dam car radiator but for lights, that was cool. I almost bought a 9'x9' growlab for 500! Over all shit was sick!
It was alright, lots of gimmicky shit there as always. I saw some friends in the industry I had not seen in a while, so that was cool. Got to chat with some of the companies I already do business with. I got a chuckle out of the helicopter pulling the Advanced Nutrients banner with a big nug on it.
I was hoping to talk to the reps of the different trimming machine companies. The only one I saw there was the Rolling Thunder, and the girl there didn't know shit about it. Nice girl, but when you are selling something for 15k, you better know why your product is better than the other companies out there selling a similar product. Reel Pro, Twister, Samurai, Tumbleweed, she had not even heard of them. I don't consider the Trimpro/Trimbox or the other bullshit trimmers competition, but they were there.

This was my first expo and I have to say I had a great time. Never had so much free shit before, so that was a huge plus. Wish I could have won a raffle but fuck it, I snuck a couple of products behind their backs 
!!!!
The AN banner was great, Its funny how they werent allowed to set up a booth so they by a banner and fly it around the place...That was great

i got a complete kit from humbolt nutes, technaflora, dutch master, a bunch of biodynamic compost stuff, humic/fulvic acids, an ash tray, a shot glass, a bunch of lighters, a smell proof bag, and a TON of other stuff. if anyone gets to chance to go to one of these things... GO!

You got to admit.... the very first one was so suttle half the peeps there for weed others for regulare tomato vegi growin, everyone kinda sketchy about actully talking about cannabis, now... shit they almost dam near cater to what we do! And this year An said, fuck a both! And went Balls out with a big fat ass baner with a fat nug on it! Shit was funny.
My expierence wasn't as good as it could have been. The last two or three years me and my wife went and we would get there early and park up close so we could make like 3 or 4 runs and put all our crap in our car. This year I went with her brother, my brother in law, and he showed up an hour late. Then once inside we hadn't even made a trip all the way around yet before he started to ask, "how much longer are we going to be here?" This is like the one event of the year I really enjoy going to and I only got to stay an hour. Sometimes I just hate family. I still got a ton of good stuff but could have been much much better.

man, i had a great time. could be b/c i rode my bike -- it was also the day of the SF marathon... city was a ZOO!!!
THANKS to all who participated at the show. i was there for the peeps, not the schwag, and i enjoyed meeting and talking to you all. especially a big thanks to my local hero, ed rosenthal. you the man.
my favorite vendors: jim from GroTek (he invented the best new product at the show -- an oxygen generator that splits O2 from H20. just drop it in your hydro reservoir and let it go... look up "OXY-GEN"); the Excel Air Systems guys (a family owned and operated business -- these guys know AC and our needs VERY WELL); and the Titan Controls guys (from Sunlight Supply), again the best of the best. BIG THANKS!

I enjoyed the oxygen generator demo, pretty cool.
This was funny as hell. The helicopter looked like it was having grief lugging it around! I didn't see them inside. I wonder if they blew their wad at the THC expo in L.A.?
