Grow Supplies In Canada * 9
    #13314653 - 10/09/10 11:11 PM (13 years, 3 months ago)

A lot of you may have seen me around the boards in the past
year as I have begun my journey into growing and studying
gourmet and medicinal mushrooms. During this time I have faced
many interesting challenges and questions in regards to
purchasing supplies from Canadian companies and stores.
Some things are just damned tricky to find in Canada!

Some members have suggested starting a sticky thread to
help other Canadian members find certain items and I
believe this is a great idea and I will be starting and
maintaining this project.

If you are a Canadian member and know of any good sites
for certain supplies please make a post! Share the information,
they do not have to be online sites but perhaps different
stores and the province they are located in. I will be
adding to this list as I find links, stores and time to
write up blurbs on places to look for certain items. I will
also add as others post links. I hope this will become a tool
that will help out countless Canadians down the road!
Cheers
EM666

Thanks for everyone's help! I will try to keep the
main post updated, but please everyone read through
as there are many GREAT Ideas being shared here EH.

NOTE ABOUT SARGENTWELCH.ca
"$64.08 was the cost of my order, with "$8 estimated shipping" (which I figured should end up being about $15). In the end I was charged $28.81 shipping + $3.46 HST. This company ships from their mother company in the USA. They'll ship it to you DHL ground, and it's going to cost you a mint. It also took them 12 days (7 business days) to process and ship my order, which is pretty ridiculous."

Random Deals & Information


In regards to finding Rye Berries or Wheat Kernels:


Your best bet is to go local. Get out your phone book, or use google
to find local feed mills. Call as many as possible and shop around to
get the best possible price.
I had to call 7 different local feed mills and eventually found a
place an hour or so away that sold 55lb bags of WHEAT for $27 CDN no
tax. No one around my parts carries rye at all, wheat kernels are a good
alternative.
Works out that I pay 49 cents a lb when I purchase wheat kernels this way. -EM666

Princess Auto has many great supplies for our hobby.
I have a buddy that works at one and gets me gloves, tubs, etc.
Has anyone found a good supply for rye berries yet?

Nice! :super:

You've added the only one I can think of atm, Efston Science.

Of course there's Canadian Tire, Rona, etc., for coir, peat, jars, etc.

I'll do some searching.

This is a great idea, I'll contribute as much as I can to it.

So far all my supply hunting has been in local stores, other than inoculant.. for some reason I couldn't find a store in my local community that carries spores :laugh2:

I've always thought it would be helpful to have a thread listing which products can be found at which stores in Canada.  I realize not all locations carry the same inventory and there will be different stores across different regions but it might help to have a starting point for someone who has no idea where to find coir or gypsum in Canada.

This list is just off the top of my head.  Feel free to add it to the top post, it would be great to see this list expanded upon with more contributions from other Canadians.  There are no doubt other stores that stock these products, and possibly some stuff that I have missed.  If I can think of anything else I'll be sure to add it. :smile:

One product I've had a hell of a time finding in Canada is denatured alcohol for flame sterilizing.  So far I haven't found it, so for flame sterilizing my needles I use a butane torch lighter to heat the needle until red hot moving from the base to the tip.  Not very comfortable but it seems to work.

In regards to mason jars, I've found they are largely a seasonal product, with best time to buy being the fall during harvest.  Quart (1L) jars are in abundant supply at most department and hardware stores, in both regular mouth and wide mouth varieties. 

The most commonly stocked 1/2 pint wide mouths are Bernardin 1/2 pint wide mouths which are less than ideal for BRF cakes.  They have a small bulge about 2/3 up the side of the jar that causes the cakes to get stuck when birthing.  They can be shimmied out using a butterknife with little consequence, but obviously they're less than ideal. 

I have yet to find 1/2 pint wide mouths for sale in Canada that are tapered on the sides.  Some stores carry Bernardin 1/4 pint jars that are tapered on the sides, but all the 1/2 pint wide mouth jars I've seen have straight sides with a slight bulge.  Anyone know of a store that carries tapered wide mouth 1/2 pint jars?

So far I've been unable to find a store that carries decent sized pressure cookers.  I've been looking for a while but so far the only size I've found is the Presto 6 quart.  I'm more in the market for a 17-27 quart pressure cooker.  Anyone know of a store that carries them?

I like to shop locally as I'd prefer to get the item in my hands when I make the purchase rather than wait for shipping.  Ultimately though if there is no option to purchase locally, online shopping can be very convenient in that case. :smile:

And remember, we're all in this together. Keep your stick on the ice! :laugh:

Edit: Added some suggestions, thanks Peterthinks, Shitsherrif and tusca!

The Home Hardware in my area doesn't carry the bales, but they do have 2.2kg bags of coir pellets for about the same price.  I found those large bales of coir at Canadian Tire however.

Thanks for the link. :smile:

If you ask they will order in, they also can get parts for Presto pressure cookers too, like rubber seals and weights.

I use a mason jar filled with 99% Iso that i had left over from making Oil. You can get the Iso from any pharmacy area like london drugs, or superstores.

Slam a hole in the metal lid of the jar and leave a bit of cotton string hainging in the alcohol to use as a wick. It works great and when im finished i use some saran-wrap with a elastic to keep the alcohol from evaporating out.

I got my Agar from T&T in little 30g packets called Agar-Agar. Its got no sugar or flavour.. its pure stuff.

The petri dishes and scalples and stuff like that ive got from the local Science Supply. I googled them and had to go directly to the guys house.

If you mean isopropol alcohol It's usually behind the counter at drug stores.
Failing that
If they want to know why you want 99 iso you can use it to sterilize egg incubation chambers.

So far I've been unable to find a store that carries decent sized pressure cookers.  I've been looking for a while but so far the only size I've found is the Presto 6 quart.  I'm more in the market for a 17-27 quart pressure cooker.  Anyone know of a store that carries them?

I had to go online PRESTO COOKERS anything large is called a "Canner", so if you just look for "Cooker" you will only find small ones.

FedEx for Tyvec envelopes, find an office near you and get a few, they won't blink it you keep it reasonable like 4 or less.
Or you could buy a bunch from STAPLES

Syringes, needles, 12 to 20 CC UFA but you pay out the ass

Syringes, needles, up to 5 CC Almost any drug store, ask at counter 18 gauge 1.5 inch about 10 cents each. save the recipt it's a tax write off LOL (Serious)

6 inch or 3.5 inch spinal needles....looking for some now.

Agar  HERE

Dextrose, light malt...Brewers shops

Another thing I've been having trouble finding is RTV Red Gasket Sealant.  I've checked Canadian Tire, Home Hardware, Home Depot, and Wal-Mart so far with no luck.  It seems like it should be in the superglue/silicone section but to no avail.  Anyone know where to buy RTV sealant in Canada?

Also regarding 99% IPA, I always pick up a gallon jug of it from our local animal feed/supply store.  They sell the gallon jugs for a very reasonable price (usually $15 or so).  It's used for various sanitary applications in the animal industry (like egg incubators as you mentioned).

Great List :smile:

Denatured Alcohol is sold in large jugs at Fireplace center stores or general paint, for the new ethanol burning fireplaces. You can always burn rubbing alcohol or ISO 99% from the drug store.

Also HD has the cheapest clear Bins 18gal for 7 dollars.


WBS:
Petexcetera
Petland

Pressure cooker:
Canadian tire (mirro)

Verm:
Monster bags from local garden center. Or landscape supplier.

Gypsum:
Local Gardens store, buy it in 6 pound boxes.
Landscape supplier.

Rye Grass seed:
Local Farm store. They all have rye seed of some sort.

Syringes:
Any pharmacy with have up to 10ml
Larger than 10 up to 60ml I find at my local medical supply store (every city has lots of these) and/or local pharmacies. (non corp) 60ml/cc costs me $1.75 from the local pharmacy, the medical supply store was out because the nurses bought the 60ml's up for Jello shots.

RTV silicon:
Candian Tire has this and so does Lordco. But I've been told regular 100% silicon will hold up just fine in the PC

At Canadian tire check automotive, it's used for engine gaskets.
comes in a little silver tube I think.

I just use plain clear Silicone, it works fine....don't get the bathroom stuff! it has a fungicide in it! LOL "My jars won't grow!"

And make 2 holes close together on the lid and make the silicone injection port over both, if you make only one hole the injector port can spin around....probably not a big deal but it bugs me. Sanding with rough grit on both sides helps it stick too

Clear stuff lets you see the hole too, no jabbing the lid metal by mistake.

Curious Nexus, have you ever ordered from the mushroompatch?

less then honest business people, I may be wrong. Thanks for
your additions!

No I haven't so I'm not sure. I'm hoping they're honest.

The other two I listed I've had personal dealings with. :thumbup:

Until someone can vouch for them I will leave them out
of the list. I added your other two links :thumbup:
Thanks again. I am waiting for a few quotes tomorrow on
some 24" by 24" HEPA filters from Tri Dim, feel safer
ordering from them ATM....but have no idea what pricing
will be. Will keep updated!

Eky:  Canadian Tire has a 22Qt Mirro PC for $130. I
Purchased one last Christmas and received another one
In a trade. Gotta love having 2 22Qt PC's..Now I wish
I had a smaller 6-10Qt one for LC's and the like,
sometimes firing up the big PC for small projects seems
wasteful:shrug:

Oct 12th 2010:
Added a link to 5gallons.com a Canadian based brew store
Has good prices on DME,LME,Yeast,Dextrose.
Also added a few ideas to the local supply lists. Verm,
Perlite, Peat moss, ect can be found at hydroponic stores
as well as local gardening/ nursery stores.
