Don’t even get me started on their grow lights. Now that’s a joke that makes itself.

Hand curated artisanal filaments swathed in rare borosilicate, gently bathed in mysterious gasses from the Orient…

…expertly crafted under artillery fire by men without shoes…

I threw the catalogue across the room in disgust but I think the lights were $300 for 50w

I bathe in mysterious gasses but I tend to do it vigorously.

Based on the commentary from the missus this AM I do as well! :rofl:

My fault really for having 1/4 of a box of Honey Shreddies as my dessert last night. :man_shrugging:

I get the catalog. For giggles as much as anything but occasionally they have things worthwhile. I’ve bought a few things, tool roll and brass lamps.

We kid a little bit but I just threw away one of their old fluoro rigs that’s been in service since 1997. Hard to argue with that.

Things I’ve bought that are 110% worth the $:

  1. 50% shade grid “cloth” (green uv resistant plastic that’s bombproof and reusable for years!)
  2. PVC connectors and accessories (wood is cheaper but needs maintenance, when I wanna say fuck-it I invest in PVC pipe and these things and it’s a done deal forever.{hoop houses, etc})
  3. THESE GARDENING GLOVES:

They last me 2 years but I put them through HELL and this includes roses.

Yeah I don’t really rag on their merchandise just their marketing. The “damn that’s expensive it must be luxe” thing.

the thing with lee valley is it’s “the bespoke hardware store”; so you pay up the arse but 9 out of 10 get your money’s worth.
