It’s Halloween, and that means that Jesse’s Giant Pumpkin Contest has come to an end. We only had one entry, but the good news is that in the first month of our blog, readership has steadily risen! I really want to thank Jeff from Maverick Sun for entering his tomato. Maverick Sun is a lighting company in Missouri, and Jeff does a little of everything, from product development to testing, and anything in between. It’s not always easy to figure out how to post a photo, or to take the time to leave a comment, and we really appreciate his presence on our blog. Jeff wins a GenHydro hoodie and a selection of products.

It is our intention to create an online community for growers that moves our industry forward. And I believe that using the web, blogs and forums is a simple and effective way to gather knowledge about nutrients, systems, lighting and plants. Help us build this important Web 2.0 community. Bookmark us, send links to your friends, leave comments, and enter our contests. Thanks for a great first month!
