Do you have a set of favorite tools that you find absolutely necessary.
Some special piece of equipment you just couldn’t do without?
Share and discuss all your favorite tools and equipment with us.
I personally feel not enough people are taking advantage of the flood of inexpensive Infrared thermometers now available. They can make it much easier for the home grower to up their game.
happy growing,

Great question, @macgyver_stoner!
I’ll take a stab at this one: jeweler’s loupe + camera with magnification, vine clips, metal shelving for organization, pot elevators, and my Truncheon for measuring PPM/EC are just a few of my favorite things.
How about other growers? What are some of your favorite garden tools?

For me, it’s my “parts” room.
A separate room adjoining my grow room that is my own little “grow store”.
It contains all my “extras and spares” from lights to hydroponic and soil growing equipment. It was all accumulated either through buying to many materials or extras that were left over from previous grows.
A quick tour

An old 100 watt hid hood and ballast together.
It’s what I used back in the 2000s lol and it’s a little rusted up.
Only 100 watts though and it’s got a MH bulb in it so I have used it for seedlings occasionally the past several years

As I was transferring water from buckets to my main reservoir last night, I thought to myself… that little Wayne transfer pump is one of the most important tools in my garden.
