Nicest People Ever! They really know their stuff and will spend the time teaching you. They dont point you to the most expensive stuff. They tell you what works and most their stuff is priced the same if not cheaper than you can get on amazon. Words cant describe how awesome this place is. you should stop by and check it out for yourself!

The girl behind the counter was extremely nice, personable, funny and knowledgeable. Maybe people caught her on an off day. We all have those. I was impressed with my purchases. I will return.I retuned today and had a complicated split payment purchase and ended up doing a complicated exchange. She and the guy working there didnt bat an eyelash. They did not make me feel like I was being one of those customers. Definitely will return. It is refreshing to know that good customer service has not gone entirely by the wayside.

I shopped here a couple of times thought it was a great place until today. Went in to buy a kit they charged me $50 and this over priced tester. Went back to get a refund on the tester 20 mins later. Just to see the two ladies selling the same kit I just bought to some else cheaper. Now I feel like they over charged me for the tester also. I hope management fixes this.

Great place to get Leca and other hydro stuff if you know what you need. The two girls doesnt help much other than saying yes mam and no mam. No two way conversation or discussion.

Clerk didn’t really seem to know product info when I called and couldn’t suggest somewhere that might’ve had what I was needing- why are you answering the phone if you can answer questions or direct customers to someone who can?

Highly professional and kind in gesture of educating me on all things indoor growing - I didn’t feel judged in any way for being a total novice, and left way more knowledgeable than when I came in. Looking forward to a long-term relationship and lots of yummy food, as well.It was so wonderful to experience a spark of inspiration amongst such dreary times! Thank you!

I came here because of fairly positive reviews and it was on the way home from work. Like others have said, the women working definitely has zero customer skills and not at all pleasant to deal with. Its a shame that I will not be returning. I try to do my best to support small local businesses.

There were so many products to actually put my hands on that helped make decisions about the direction and success for my next grow. Tremendously helpful and well versed in the art of hydroponics. These guys can get you started from the ground up. Great shop!Only improvement: lighting selection need to display LED, COB options. Overall very well stocked!

Review №37

The girl that answers the phone is super rude. I was going to purchase a few items from them but because of her ugly attitude and lack of knowledge of the items I was asking about I quickly changed my mind. They Lost a potential long term customer before I even became a customer. I would most definitely not recommend this place to anybody especially other growers. Took my business elsewhere so Thanks to “JSH Hydroponics” for helping me out, very knowledgable and even threw in some discounts and free items for free!

I came here on the recommendation of a friend and, wow, this place is awesome! It has everything one needs to get growing and yielding. The staff is extremely knowledgeable, helpful, and friendly! It was really some of the best customer service I have ever experienced. Also, the grow room is really cool to walk through and admire. I will definitely be returning!

This place is great. I wish the street it was on wasnt like driving through a war zone filled with pot holes but other than that. Ive met the owner and his son. They are always welcoming and will answer any question you have. They also sell CBD products that my wife swears by. Prices are spot on and atmosphere is inviting. Dont ever close!!!

I wish I could rate them 6 stars! I have had nothing but great experiences the three times I have visited. Price wise they are very reasonable. Im sure you could get things cheaper online, but you wont get the benefit of their extensive knowledge! I have asked so many random questions and gotten great, detailed answers for every one. And everyone is so nice! Including the dogs :-)

I had the great pleasure of visiting Hydroshack. Naturally, I was immediately impressed by the hydroponic plants that were growing in the adjacent room. I had never seen tobacco grown in that fashion.Ryan assisted me with my purchase of soil(s). He was friendly and knowledgeable. Ryan answered my barrage of questions and was very kind and patient.I am going back on Saturday for the coffee and beer...and, most likely, more soil.This is my new toy store.

Yea the bad reviews are obviously the competition, this place has all you need and if they dont have it they can get it. The guy I see all the time is Ty and boy is he knowledgeable and with a passion loves to help and answer questions. Being open on Sundays for me is a god send as I work the other six. Stop by this place, you wont be disappointed!!

Exceptional customer service! The gentlemen working on Monday 2/19/18 was more than helpful with all of my questions. When asked for honest opinions he definitely went above and beyond. I am glad to see that stores like this thrive and do well. From their reviews you cant go wrong here. Def come by and take a look at their supply of nutrients and supplies. Prices are marked fair but, surely you can find cheaper online. But, you cant find this type of A+ quality service when ordering stuff online!

Best place in Houston hands down. Why? Tevis is super helpful and will get you whatever you need asap, even if they dont have it in stock or if its something obscure, not to mention the knowledge and tips given if you ask questions. Its very worth the time and money going there. I recommend Hydroshack to EVERYONE.

Have you ever heard about hydroponics, the method of growing plants without soil using mineral nutrient solutions in a water solvent? I had not, but when my friend told me about urban farming and how hydroponics was the way of the future, I was intrigued to find out more! What hooked me was I was told how I could grow my own vegetables inside of the comfort of my own home in an efficient and clean way with minimal effort. I went to Hydroshack Hydroponics to gain more insight.I met with the owner, Chris, and he brought me into the grow room on display. He explained everything from the different techniques used in hydroponics, the different light setups, the nutrients used, and even showed me the equipment used to make RO water (reverse osmosis for water purification). He walked me around the store and showed me the most beneficial nutrients that plants needed when vegetating and flowering. What I really liked was how he talked about the issues that most of his clients run into like root rot and nutrient deficiencies.I learned a lot from Chris, and he gave me a lot of ideas about indoor gardening. He was really friendly, knowledgeable, and gave amazing customer service. He even had a fancy coffee machine in the store and offered me some fresh coffee! It was a great experience, and when I am ready to start an indoor garden setup, I will definitely be back to Hydroshack Hydroponics.

I love, love, love this place. I can always find what I need for my aquaponic system. If I need something they dont have they will get it for me and notify me when my order arrives. By far the best shop in the Houston area. They are even open 7 days a week for those of us who need to shop on the weekends.
