    Hey Bart,

    Thanks for the timely comments! Grow media was exactly my concern. I was in a Lowes last night and noticed the lava rock. You mentioned Brentwood ... does brand matter? Were you able to get the size media you were looking for or did you have to break them down to use in your system?

    I've looked at some online hydroponic stores and Hydroton is expensive in Ontario. Cost would be a huge factor in a commercial system.

    I noticed on the Canadian Hydroponic group that there was a guy up your way (London area) looking to import some expanded shale last fall. Do you know who this is?

    Thanks again,

    Brian

    Hi Bart

    Thank's a lot for your reply. I guess it is a 7 hour drive from Hawkesbury to London.

    I found a contact in Ottawa (Moe) and will start close to home. But we keep you in mind for the next time we drive to Toronto.

    Cheers
