Green Earth Garden Supplies

Adam, our head of sales, visits stores constantly. He recently visited Green Earth Garden Supplies in Surrey, British Colombia, and got some great information about their shop for our blog. I love how even though I’ve never been there, I can tell I would love the store by the massive ammounts of thriving and beautiful [...]

The Weather is Creating Chaos

Hi! Feels like it’s been ages! We had to get some crucial updates taken care of last week. Since I last posted, summer dissolved and winter storms took over in a big way. Strong winds and lots of rain pushed away any hope for a little extra summer. In three days, 4 inches of rain [...]

Closing the Greenhouse with a Forklift

Today the forklift was called into action, with it’s massive lift. The upper vents of the greenhouse came off of their tracks, and this is way better than a ladder, right?

Here at GH we are all about mycology. Mushrooms forge key symbiotic relationships with the roots of plant and the beneficial microorganisms in soil. But check out these guys that I found on Boing Boing. Read more about these unusual fungus at National Geographic.

These latest findings shed light on the evolution of luminescence, adding to the number of known [...]

Technical Difficulties!

If you are a regular reader, you’ve prolly noticed some GH Blog technical difficulties! At some point, our plugin directory was corrupted (I don’t know what that even means!!!) But, it locked us all out, and no comments were approved, no posts went up and some even de-materialized into the ethernet. It’s all sorted out [...]

Andy is an inventor who works for GH under the title of “Infrastructure Improvement.” If you’ve ever called our office, the music that plays over the phone line is Andy’s didgeridoo. He’s a creative savant, and this past weekend, [...]
